If anything like the rule of law were in force, Trump couldn't arbitrarily increase a tariff because he is annoyed.

Donald Trump's regime has committed at least 20 of them in whole or in part, condensed into the list below: 1. He has refused his Assent to Laws, the most wholesome and necessary for the public good. 2. He has refused to pass other Laws for the accommodation of large districts of people, unless those people would relinquish the right of representation β¦ 3. He has dissolved Representative Houses repeatedly, for opposing β¦ his invasions on the rights of the people. 4. He has endeavoured to prevent the population of these States; β¦ obstructing the Laws for Naturalization of Foreigners β¦ 5. He has obstructed the Administration of Justice β¦ 6. He has made Judges dependent on his Will alone, for the tenure of their offices β¦ 7. He has erected a multitude of New Offices, and sent hither swarms of Officers to harrass our people, and eat out their substance. 8. He has kept among us, in times of peace, Standing Armies without the Consent of our legislatures. 9. He has affected to render the Military independent of and superior to the Civil power. 10. He has combined with others to subject us to a jurisdiction foreign to our constitution β¦ giving his Assent to their Acts of pretended Legislation: 11. For Quartering large bodies of armed troops among us: 12. For protecting them β¦ from punishment for any Murders which they should commit β¦ 13. For cutting off our Trade with all parts of the world: 14. For imposing Taxes on us without our Consent: 15. For depriving us β¦ of the benefits of Trial by Jury: 16. For transporting us beyond Seas to be tried for pretended offences: 17. For β¦ abolishing our most valuable Laws, and altering fundamentally the Forms of our Governments: 18. He has abdicated Government here, by declaring us out of his Protection and waging War against us. 19. He has β¦ destroyed the lives of our people. 20. He has excited domestic insurrections amongst us β¦
The Declaration of Independence specifies 27 grievances with King George III and Britain.
Donald Trump and his regime have committed at least 20 of those same offenses highlighted in yellow.

The word is, and it's a strong word at that, Jimmy Kimmel is NEXT to go in the untalented Late Night Sweepstakes and, shortly thereafter, Fallon will be gone. These are people with absolutely NO TALENT, who were paid Millions of Dollars for, in all cases, destroying what used to be GREAT Television. It's really good to see them go, and I hope I played a major part in it! Trump Truth Social post, July 22, 2025.
Don't buy the canard that this is about Charlie Kirk. Abusing state power to lean on corporate leaders and get Jimmy Kimmel off the air because he told jokes about the president and made him feel bad was always the plan.

This is an attack on free speech and cannot be allowed to stand.
All elected officials need to speak up and push back on this undemocratic act.
This is it.
Cancel culture, but for real. The Twitter Files, but for real. Actual, unadulterated collusion between the government and media-owning corporations to censor Americans.
Shame on the MAGA libertarians and fake-heterodox civility cops who helped pave this road to authoritarianism.

The real issue isnβt left vs right.
Itβs not white vs black.

The real issue is that a lot of powerful people have a vested interest β and a lot of money invested β in dividing us, and itβs working.
The night after the murder of Melissa Hortman, the Democratic legislator in Minnesota, the Yankees were at the Red Sox and neither team requested a moment of silence.

Who we choose to hold a moment of silence for and who we do not are silences that speak volumes.
Again, political violence has no place in this country.
I probably donβt agree with Charlie Kirk on a damn thing, but that doesnβt matter - heβs a husband and a father.
