If the unemployment rate is 2.9%, and the tariffs are going to bring millions of manufacturing jobs back to the U.S., where are the workers going to come from?

So does all the MAGA merchandise made in China now going to go up in price due to the tariffs?

Watching Howard Lutkin on Meet the Press, what a kiss-ass idiot.

Can someone send the press secretary a copy of SchoolHouse Rock? She keeps saying that an Executive Order (renaming the Gulf of Mexico) is a law of the land. It is not.

Democrats need to have daily briefings, not denouncing Trump, but showing what his policies are doing. Bring in laid off veterans, daycares not getting funded, farmers whose crops ahd been bought and sent out via USAID. Show the RAMIFICATIONS, do not just rant at Trump. Make people understand!

Is anyone asking at a press briefing WHY they are shutting down the Consumer Bureau? They scream fraud, but it seems to just be "we don't want to spend money there", which is not fraud. Also, why not look at a study of how much money will be lost if an agency is eliminated? (Like thousands from IRS)

Makes sense, rather than the scattershot responses that are going on now. I can see people thinking this would make him the "de-facto" lead of the party, so maybe have a rotating list of people (younger generation of the party) to pass along the truth and get their faces out there for the future.

Tired of Trump blaming DEI on everything (plane crash is latest). DEI does not mean the best person is not hired for the job. Aren't the "loyalty tests" and purges he is doing within the government now just DEI with different parameters? Rather than"favoring" minorities, they require MAGA loyalists?

(2/2) This is leading to a more ignorant (not stupid, ignorant) class of people who are gullble and easy to manipulate.

It wouldn't in just the first 30 days, but we MUST start educating people on critical thinking, identifying falsehoods, and the importance of compromise. I fear our schools are teaching stale lessons when technology and the pace of our society has far outpaced them. (1/2)

I know Bluesky is a more positive environment, but the Cardinals are sucking today!

Proud to be a Sun Devil! Big 12 Champs!

Hard to believe it has been 24 years. I miss you Dad...

Just got tickets for the Phoenix show!

That was wonderful, definitely got both smiles and tears from me, having been through the same thing, and thinking much along the same lines as you did. Now, wait until graduation day, that will get you too!

Keith, been reading along with your analysis on the Athletic, and I have to let you know the "Run, Run away" line on the D-Backs Slade Caldwell pick make my afternoon. Thanks for all the great work!
