Just this year, China banned the import of Argentinian beef because it contained a dangerous antibiotic banned in beef intended for human consumption since 1995. Trump is still importing Argentinian beef to make beef prices go down. He doesn’t care about *your* health, only *his* poll numbers.

In 2018, President Trump stood in the Oval Office and said that people seeking asylum should “do it the legal way” by coming here without crossing a border illegally. Now his admin is set to punish people who did exactly that; came on a visa and then applied for asylum.

I’m enjoying “always so polite” Canada giving the obnoxious troll Donald Trump an earful. They are giving the Scottish a run for their money when it comes to creativity cursing someone out.

The Trump administration is preparing to revoke up to 200,000 business and tourist visas from people who have applied for or are seeking asylum in the U.S. If carried out, it would reportedly be the largest mass visa revocation in U.S. history and is expected to face legal challenges.

Please don't overreact to Roberts Court decision on the contemplated USPS ballot moves They simply held that the injunction came too early in the process, before there was a final rule👇 Now we HAVE a final rule & we will litigate it. I'm as confident in our arguments here as in any of our cases!

There's no standing for states to sue over that EO yet because it's just the president of the United States officially proclaiming his order to illegally interference in state elections, and you have to wait and see how and if agencies actually follow what he said first, is pants-on-head lunacy.

When the Indiana Senate refused to do mid-decade gerrymandering, Trump posted about it nonstop & got directly involved in taking out the senators who voted against it. But when thousands of people in IN have been without power for 2 weeks, Trump posted nothing and doesn’t care.

Someone just sent this to me to inform me that I am currently the #1 account on Bluesky. That’s insane given how many great, engaging people there are here. First, thank you. Second, only 41 blocks? Clearly, I’m not trying hard enough!

Susan Collins voted to confirm Howard Lutnick, the person widely reported as most responsible for blowing up the deal. But now she’s concerned about what he has done because it’s an election year.

I unpacked Supreme Court mail-in ballot ruling @outfrontcnn.bsky.social ⤵️ - The Executive Order is still blocked under a totally separate court order. - States should win quick victories now that USPS has "final rule" (SCOTUS simply held it's premature before that final rule issues). Explanation:

We could have done Bessent’s economic secondary sanctions on countries doing business with Iran without the war. The Trump admin is only turning to this because the war was a costly failure, regime change didn’t happen, peace talks and threats failed, so it’s on to another plan.

Why would the Democratic Leader of the House meet privately with a failed negotiator but successful exploiter of the office of the president in the amount of billions? Was the discussion around how each can profit from the other? Back scratching? What?
