Trump is tariffing nations that are our allies and that function as democracies.
Our adversaries and the dictatorships are overwhelmingly not the ones getting tariffs.
Maybe the economic collapse Trump is engineering for this country will convince corporate governance and Wall Street that there are more important things than paying less taxes.
Musk has now seized the private, privileged data of Americans who receive payments from the government–so that he can simply unilaterally impound funds to which Americans are entitled.
Why aren’t the Dems calling for his arrest?
Or perhaps we need a class action law suit by the millions whom Musk is violating?
Just because Musk speaks in that ridiculous finishing school accent doesn’t change the fact that every time he opens his mouth he displays his ignorance.
That’s why he is determined to defund NPR and PBS, which are, of course, long-term Republican priorities as well, since the GOP knows that an informed electorate is its biggest adversary.
by creating panic about unsafe flying conditions due to his radical downsizing of the FAA.
He fired the Aviation Security Advisory Committee one week before yesterday’s catastrophe, just the way he disbanded Obama’s Global Health Security and Biodefense unit, which was responsible for pandemic readiness, 18 months before the COVID pandemic. And what about the role played in the derailment in Palestine, Ohio by his deregulation of train safety.
blame shifting, which are indeed, as Buttigieg tweeted, “Despicable.”
Trump and the GOP are instantly trying to deflect attention from his firing of FAA safety personnel at the insistence of President Musk, and are so grotesquely immoral that they will seek to place blame for the crash on Democrats’ efforts to combat racism. The GOP, of course, want to make racism the law of the land.
if he is not up to the job of doing all that’s possible to save America from Trump.
Democratic governors have confronted Schumer on his fecklessness, and it’s about time. The NYT reports that Gov. Laura Kelly is demanding that Schumer and the Democratic Establishment finally resort to messaging: “a ‘down and dirty’ communications strategy to hammer Trump on a daily basis.”
Tim Walz “argued that Democrats must occupy just as much media space as Mr. Trump and Republicans have been doing.”
Remember how Schumer was calling himself the Democrats’ message guru a decade ago? And since then the Democrats have turned into a messaging vacuum.
He is pitch perfect in his denunciation of Trump’s illegal and predatory attempt to circumvent democracy and rob Americans of the benefits they’ve paid for.
We just cannot let out of touch, superannuated Democratic operatives hijack another presidential campaign.
They couldn’t have been more meek and deferential to Karoline Leavitt as she lied her way through her debut press briefing, and this morning The New York Times couldn’t be more adoring. The same press corps that screeched and clawed at the Biden administration has already made it clear that they will roll over for Trump once more.
