It also struck me that he mentioned something like the government contracts allow for such adjustments, so he would make his cut either way, and ultimately this comes back to the people via taxes or directly, to shoulder the burden. I suspect the same is true here. We all just pay more.

I heard an interview with a construction company owner a little while back about the effect of tariffs. My take away was that he wasnโ€™t that worried because they are able to just pass along the costs and if people donโ€™t want to pay it, they can go elsewhere, because there isnโ€™t anywhere else.

Scott MacFarlane (@macfarlanenews) The Jan 6 plaque saga continues. The two police officers who have sued and sought a court order to hang the plaque honoring Jan 6 police heroes have today requested a judge *allow their civil lawsuit...

Police argue the Jan 6 plaque was mounted in a โ€œhiddenโ€ location, no different than a basement storage room:

๐Ÿ‘€ A Jan. 6 defendant has spent a year arguing that his unrelated firearms conviction should be covered by Trump's Day One pardon.

Today, DOJ asked for an extension to respond to his request because of ... a crushing backlog of immigration cases. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Bunch of white nationalists claiming to be Christian showed up to the TN legislature today to support Rep Jody Barrettโ€™s HB570 which would make abortion a homicide, allowing women who receive abortion care to be punished by death penalty. Very โ€œpro-lifeโ€ of this mostly male group.

โ€˜Titanicโ€™ statue of Trump and Epstein on the Mall draws praise, scorn The statue, depicting them embracing on a copy of the Titanic bow, is the third placed on the Mall by the artists depicting a connection between Trump and Epstein.

There's a new Trump-Epstein statue on the National Mall.

It's an enormous statue, spray-painted gold, of Trump embracing Epstein in a reenactment of that famous scene from "Titanic."

RESULT: The AP calls it, that there will be a runoff between Democrat Shawn Harris and Republican Clayton Fuller in April (meaning theyโ€™ll take the top 2 spots and neither will get 50%).

This is the reddest district in Georgia, though Dems are at least going to get a big overperformance today.

Maryland, New Mexico Become Latest Blue States to Ban Local Contracts with ICE Governors Lujan Grisham and Moore signed laws barring local sheriffs and police from partnering with ICEโ€™s 287(g) program, joining eight other states with similar prohibitions.

More than 1,300 state and local agencies around the country have contracts to assist the federal government with immigration enforcement. But in a growing list of blue states, those contracts are being banned in an effort to restrict ICE activity.

Sen. Bjorkman asks about health care and insurance. He says HR1 might include some of the transformation dollars, but it also imposes a massive bureaucratic burden and costs on the state.

He notes that more Alaskans are uninsured thanks to changes under HR1 and the failure to fix ACA credits.

๐Ÿงต Alaska Republican U.S. Rep. Nick Begich's annual address to the Alaska Legislature is underway. Word is that he's skipping the usual press conference afterward.

One lone "Stop the war" message on his way in.

If you think you are reporting on a "Trump policy" pronouncement, you are not.

There is no such thing.

Trump did not announce a U.S. policy then walk it back. That is not what happened, and media presenting it that way does a disservice.

Trump said words he thought might appeal to his audience in the moment, with no connection to actual policy, then did that again with a different question/asker.
