Screenshot of Amazon's checkout page. In the subtotal, there's a new line item reading, "Estimated import tax (125%) to be collected." There is one item in the cart, a laptop priced at $2,799.99. The import tax (tariff) is $3,498.75. The total, including sales tax and regulatory fees, is $6,548.74.
Amazon is considering showing tariffs in its prices, making clear that consumers pay for import taxes Trump levies.
Companies already show sales tax in the subtotal. They want you to know that the government imposes the additional cost. Listing a much bigger import tax imposed by the government.

Me standing in a full suit at the protest. I'm holding a sign that reads, "Hands off Canada" at the top. At the bottom, it says "Normalize relations with Canada, not Russia."
I'm so proud- 5,000 people from our little town showed up Saturday.
Tariffs are just the latest example of Trump's destructive policies enraging more Americans. The more he tries to take from us, the more unified we will be.
Together, we are far more powerful than one vindictive and corrupt man.

I asked Reddit: Who Will "Lock Them Up" Over Signalgate? The answer: The Trump administration must prosecute itself- very unlikely.
Once again, it's up to the people to check this administration's power. Please add your voice to America's collective outrage.

When the executive branch far exceeds its authority
And Congress does nothing to stop it
And the courts act too slowly to prevent the damage
The people step in and have the final word

It is! A 360Β° helmet mounted camera in particular. I'm still learning how to use it but I get a lot of great video with this thing.

A Samsung smart refrigerator screen shows the inside of the fridge. Most items have labels like olives, coffee, croutons. All but yogurt are incorrectly labeled.
It got exactly one right! π

Everyone dismantling democracy needs to hear from the people who cherish it. Valadao is not my congressperson but if he's part of the problem, I hope his constituents let him have it!

I'm taking it to the streets in Sacramento to defend a little thing we call democracy. Who wants to join me?

He put this so well. We need more prominent figures with the courage to speak about preserving democracy. I'm disappointed that so many Americans aren't seeing the threat to our constitutional republic.

I was in Mt Hood. I wanted to go somewhere I'd never been.
It was literally freezing (I've been waiting so long to say that and actually mean it!) but it was great skiing and almost no one was at Timberline.

A picture of the Bagdad theater from across the street. Snow covers the sidewalk and most of the road.
Nobody told me it snowed in Portland. I can't remember a single Portlandia episode depicting it. Now you know the truth!

Graphic titled, "Many Simpsons Characters are Named After Streets in Portland." Underneath title are a series of pictures in 2 columns. In the left column is a screengrab from a Simpsons episode with the name of a street in Portland. The right column shows a photograph of the same street, taken by the post's author.
I can't miss the chance to do a little Simpsons tourism while in Portland!
