Trump reverses course and cuts tariffs on US food imports
Order exempting coffee, beef, bananas and other items comes as White House fights off concerns about rising costs
He dropped his own tariffs, that were NEVER going to do anything except raise prices and create hardship? Right. GOP formula:
1. Create problem.
2. Blame others for problem.
3. Then un-do problem & take credit.
We're tired of it.
Oh- and release the Epstein files.

Trump Escalates War on Leftists With Antifa Foreign Terror Label
Move cites NSPM-7, saying four European Antifa groups espoused "anti-Christianity," "anti-capitalism," and "anti-Americanism"
My NSPM-7 coverage has for weeks been met with smug assurances that there's no law for domestic terrorism. Well, the Trump admin just designated Antifa groups as Foreign Terror Orgs - for which there is a law:

Harm to SNAP recipients, federal workers, and others is real. In a normal democracy itβd make sense to prioritize reducing that harm in the short term.
In a rapidly backsliding democracy, harm is happening no matter what. Preventing authoritarian consolidation is the most harm-reducing move.

FBI Warns of Criminals Posing as ICE, Urges Agents to ID Themselves
In a bulletin to law enforcement agencies, the FBI said criminal impersonators are exploiting ICEβs image and urged nationwide coordination to distinguish real operations from fakes.
βThree men in black vests entered a NY restaurant claiming to be ICE agents. Inside, they tied a workerβs hands and pulled a garbage bag over the personβs head. Another, believing the burglarsβ story, surrendered themselves, only to be kicked to the ground and tied up as the intruders robbed an ATMβ

Two things these smug assholes never acknowledge. First: Biden got us out of COVID, which did increase the number of people needing assistance because, ya know, pandemic. Second: per their own data, 58.4% of SNAP beneficiaries are children or over 60. Of the remaining adults, 10% are disabled.
