I used to live on the post in Landstuhl in my first time in Germany and have been there many times. This is not good news.

What problem is Trump's new global 10% tariff meant to solve?

If it's about leverage, ask: How much leverage do you get from a tariff that disappears in 150 days?

If it's onshoring: Who builds new factories based on tariff that disappear before the factory is built?

It's a tax. That's all it is.

Minneapolis protester as he's being brutalized by feds: "You're gonna have to kill me! You're gonna have to kill me! I've done nothing wrong! My name is Matthew James! I'm a US citizen! You're gonna kill me! Is that what you want?" (You can hear his wife screaming)

Black people have been the canaries in the coal mine for decades. When the majority of white people decided it was alright for the state to kill us, they unwittingly signed their own death warrants as well.

As a former Tea Party guy, let me say it's astonishing how quickly a lot of people went from "don't tread on me" to "obey or die."

One of the most important dynamics in US politics this year will be the struggle of state/local governments to govern against the extraordinary harms Trump and his allies have done to the country. Events like this are happening now all across the country, and will, repeatedly, everywhere all year.

This is *definitely* how you behave when you're trying to bring every resource to bear, rather than trying to cover up the unlawful behavior of your own personnel.
