Americans aren't just going to pay more for things from Canada and Mexico because Donald Trump is an idiot. They are also going to pay more for goods from the United States, as American producers use the expectation of higher prices to gouge.

So unfair, when Canada announces tariffs, it done by a sane, handsome man. America just can't compete with politics that underhanded.

I’m going to put my rich guy hat on and say I hope that Mexico and Canada issue equal, retaliatory tariffs and stick to them for an extended period. I apologize to all the people it will cost money and the businesses it will hurt. But it’s the only way for tariffs to be seen for what they are

When I was a Hill staffer in 2009, a Dem trifecta was trying to pass universal healthcare. In response, Senate GOP released a memo detailing all of the tactics they in the minority could use to delay the effort as much as possible. I'm recirculating that 2009 GOP memo here. Take inspiration from it.

To me, its the responsible choice to not have kids if you know you could do damage. It takes a lot to raise an emotionally healthy kid and I knew I didn't have it in me. We get persecuted for our decision rather then praised for sound reasoning. Many f'ckd up kids because of unwanted motherhood

Public transit needs to be talked about a lot more than it is. Every time I’m in DC I’m absolutely shocked with how easy and efficient it is to move around & from city to city. A similar concept nationwide would not only be amazing for our environment, but reduce congestion too. It’s a no brainer!

There’s no such thing as working productively with MAGA nihilists like Elon, Vivek and RFK, Jr. They want to bring down our Republic. Don’t normalize them by pointing out a few of their good ideas. You can’t play nice with the leopards. Let them into your house and they will eat your face.

Good morning and Happy Thursday to everyone who is determined to turn up the volume and EXPOSE all of the brutal, deadly consequences of abortion bans in America. They're not "pro-life." They're pro controlling women's bodies.

Religion does NOT belong in our schools! Agreed? ✋
An illustration showing a metaphorical “large high wall” separating “Church” and “State.” On the side labeled “Church,” buildings resembling places of worship are captioned “Religion goes here.” On the side labeled “State,” there are government buildings and a public school labeled “Science goes here.” The top of the image displays the text “BUILD THIS WALL.”
