And when that problem is a fascist regime destroying people's lives and, yes, of course, their livelihoods, doing anything to enable them is part of the problem.

What's dismissed in this interview is need to govern for real live people - and, yes, that means our wallets but for some it also means our absolute most basic liberties. /1

Millions could be at risk of having their access to food impacted as SNAP is set to run out of funding by next Saturday unless funding is approved by Washington. Rep. Sydney Kamlager-Dove (D-CA) discusses this, news out of the DOJ, and more.

But at least the rich got their tax cuts, right @MarshaBlackburn? With Inequality at gilded age levels.
PSA: They don’t care about the debt and never did.
Pretty wild that the Republican Party apparently now hates Ronald Reagan — and everything he stood for — and is actively trying to destroy his actual legacy.

Rule of Law Alert: Trump’s authority for country-specific tariffs comes from the International Emergency Economic Powers Act, which doesn’t mention tariffs—but does require a national emergency.
An ad showing that Reagan opposed tariffs surely is not a national emergency. (It may be a personal one)
The Trump administration has just agreed to buy thousands of drone parts from Donald Trump Jr.’s new drone company.

The company brought Junior in right after the election as part owner. They just won the largest drone motor contract awarded by the Pentagon.

The Ronald Reagan Presidential Foundation and Institute learned that the Government of Ontario, Canada, created an ad campaign using selective audio and video of President Ronald Reagan delivering his "Radio Address to the Nation on Free and Fair Trade," dated April 25, 1987. The ad misrepresents the Presidential Radio Address, and the Government of Ontario did not seek nor receive permission to use and edit the remarks. The Ronald Reagan Presidential Foundation and Institute is reviewing its legal options in this matter. We encourage you to watch President Reagan's unedited video on our YouTube channel.
The post from the Reagan Foundation is just complete gibberish.
The ad did not, in fact, misrepresent Reagan's views. But the idea that anyone needs the Reagan Foundation's goddamn permission to use the publicly broadcast official remarks of a former president and/or edit them for brevity is crazy
And so it begins...

Trump's calling Reagan’s words here “FAKE” and “fraudulent.” They’re 100% real. And the original clip is actually far worse for Trump, as much is left out of the ad:
