Costco demands a refund from Trump The mega-retailer is suing to get its tariff money back.

New in PN: Costco demands a refund from Trump

"One of the biggest importers in the country has entered the fray, at the risk of finding itself crosswise with the Trump administration. This is what happens when you let the president break the law for a little while."

Imagine standing there nodding at this buffoon.

Sean Duffy articulates with clarity what America's golden age will look like: you will drive a Ford station wagon that guzzles gasoline, pollutes the environment, and will kill you dead if you get into an accident... and you will love it.

Spare us the “narco terrorist” talk from an admin that pardons & releases actual charged & convicted drug kingpins.

Hegseth bears responsibility for these unlawful strikes and must be held accountable.

If the admin doesn’t cooperate with a congressional investigation, then Hegseth must be removed.

What happens if this alleged January 6 pipe bomber claims that he was merely a tourist who just wanted to put on a fireworks display to celebrate President Trump's victory in the 2020 election?

Would that get him a pardon, a dismissal, and maybe damages?

I agree, Melania should go back to Slovenia.

6. Meanwhile, free the major drug kingpins that share your far right ideology.

Trump/Hegseth instruction manual:
1. Invent a war where none exists.
2. Kill people by blowing up boats that aren’t attacking you.
3. Violate your own rules of war.
4. Call in the lawyers to explain why the clear violations are not really violations.
5. Blame it on “the fog of war.”

“The economy is better than many think because [well established macroeconomic metrics that aggregate the lived experience of millions using multiple methods].”

and

“The economy is better than many think because [lies].”

These are not the same.

Catherine Rampell: Americans' views of the job market are the most negative Gallup has recorded since the closing days of Trump’s first term, in January 2021 during the pandemic.

The Trump regime may have stopped BLS monthly job reports to hide bad numbers, but can’t hide the job market from the public.

Vibes might be able to convince people the job market is worse than it really is, but it’s very hard to sell the idea that the job market is much better than it really is.

President Trump has now pardoned 12 members of Congress convicted of crimes varying from tax evasion, campaign corruption, lying to the FBI, bribery, insider trading, obstruction, etc.

If Jeff Epstein were alive today, he’d be a free man in Trump’s America.

Wtf is health sharing?

They miss the glory days of pre-existing conditions and folks choosing between medication and food.

the @washingtonpost.com reports that 80% of aliens arrested in DC crackdown had no criminal record--932 individuals. (DHS spox Tricia McLaughlin routinely asserts that 70% of those arrested have US criminal records.)

They NEVER take responsibility

Sen. Jim Banks on the DC shooting that happened after Trump deployed the National Guard and was allegedly perpetrated by a suspect Trump granted asylum to earlier this year: "The blame falls at Joe Biden's feet for what he allowed to happen"

Sean Duffy on slashing fuel economy standards: "This rule will actually allow you to bring back the 1970s station wagon. Maybe a little wood paneling on the side. We can bring back choice to consumers."

The entire U.S. population is in the low hundreds of millions (340m), meaning that according to NoemMath, nearly all of us were on track for a cocaine-related death. I am so grateful to have been saved.

12 former commissioners of the FDA came together to write a Perspectives piece for the New England Journal of Medicine; raising our concerns about recent changes to vaccine approval policy at the FDA and its implications for patients and public health.

these daily oval office things are increasingly looking like family holiday visits to grandpa at the nursing home

Everything about this murderous military campaign in the Caribbean is wrong.

Illegal, immoral, bad strategy, based on lies and nonsensical justifications.

We’ve suffered too many deaths from opiate overdoses so we’re going to kill some people far away who may or may not have some cocaine?

Insane.

If after we blow your boat up you still float, you are a witch, so we can kill you. If you drown you are not a witch.

So a few things:

1) The initial boat strike was illegal;

2) The two survivors were trying to continue their drug run by clinging to wreckage?!

3) The initial boat strike was illegal.

FBI Seeks ‘Seditious Conspiracy’ Probe of Democratic Lawmakers FBI headquarters is pressuring the bureau’s domestic terrorism agents to open a seditious conspiracy investigation into six Democratic lawmakers who advised military service members to defy unlawful o...

"FBI headquarters is pressuring the bureau’s domestic terrorism agents to open a seditious conspiracy investigation into six Democratic lawmakers who advised military service members"

DC Field Office career leaders pushed back citing "a lack of legal and factual basis to initiate a criminal case."

One of the most striking things about these ICE/BP raids is not that they’re all kitted out for war while going after people who didn’t do anything wrong and don’t pose a threat, but that they always bring a camera crew.
