Fun fact about Trump tariffs you wonβt see in 99% of the reporting:
Trump tariffs are illegal.
Congress controls tariffs just like tax rates.
President can change a tariff only for national security emergency, meaning war.
The US is now a laughing stock of the world...

So many people will die due to these chaotic, sudden, horrifically implemented cuts.

The CFPB has:
-Returned $20B to victims of financial fraud
-Cracked down on junk fees
-Fought against politically-motivated debanking
-Protected veterans from predatory lenders
-Protected consumers' data from corporate abuse
Oligarchs want to reverse all of this.

Over on the other site Elon Musk said that DOGE stopped $50M of condoms from being delivered to Gaza which Trump the repeated several times but it turns out that was the number for all contraceptive support from USAID everywhere on Earth, of which none went to Palestinians.

Wait. What? I thought "The Onion" bought "The New York Times."
Those headlines are REAL? Oh shit.
Obama & Biden chartered the upper 2 airplanes to take immigrants who were here illegally back to their countries. For no legitimate reason & at far greater expense to US taxpayers, Trump chose to use military planes which cost far more. See photo #3

What are they doing elsewhere while we are focused on this panic?

I won an appeal against my health insurance company, Cigna! Sure, it's only $20 but it's the principle that counts. Don't let the insurance companies get away with not paying claims or not covering things that your contract says should be covered. You can do the appeal yourself!

Our "pause" on foreign aid can have big implications on child mortality, tuberculosis, HIV, and lots of other stuff. We've made great progress, let's not slide backward. Great video by @johngreensbluesky.bsky.social - worth watching...

Iβm confused.
We are ditching D.E.I. for merit based hiring.
And then we βhireβ Hegseth as Defense Secretary? He is clearly not qualified.
When Trump imposes tariffs on Colombian coffee, Colombian flowers, Colombian bananas and pineapples and avocados, on Colombian oil, it's us Americans who will pay those added costs. We're not even a week into Trump's term and he's already imposed a brand new tax on all of us.
