Rand Paul: "The whole [tariffs] debate is so fundamentally backwards & upside down. It's based on a fallacy & the fallacy is this: that somehow in a trade, someone must lose. That somehow when you trade with someone, someone is taking advantage of you... I have a trade deficit with my grocery store"

John Hemingway was a fighter pilot in a vastly outnumbered Royal Air Force, one of the “few” hailed by Churchill that saved Britain in the early stages of World War II, and was an Allied flight controller during the D-Day invasion of Normandy in 1944. He died at 105 on Monday. nyti.ms/3RnD51z
Apparently the US does not need educated specialists - unless they’re white ”Christian” males, I guess.
A kidney transplant specialist and professor at Brown University’s medical school has been deported from the U.S., even though she had a valid visa and a court order temporarily blocking her expulsion, according to her lawyer and court papers.

Dear Dems. This is a reminder that Donald Trump rescinded the ethics rules preventing gifts to executive branch employees. Now would be a good time to propose legislation formalizing the prevention into a law Time to do things that make him react to you. apnews.com/article/trum...

Elon Musk fires another one of America's best.
Gregg is a former Marine and Forest Service ranger. He's saved the lives of hikers dangling off a cliff or going through cardiac arrest, and he's bravely fought forest fires to save small rural towns. 100% of his salary is paid by WA state. Elon fired him. Share his story.

At 15:15 in the video here, President Trump says he's heard President Zelensky had admitted "he didn't know where half the money [US Aid to Ukraine] is." Via Politifact, it's another conspiracy theory pushed by Elon Musk. www.politifact.com/factchecks/2... www.c-span.org/program/whit...

Yes. While there are absolutely things Democrats can and must do to slow, obstruct, etc, GOP hold both House and Senate majorities, severely limiting our options. Johnson and Thune are handing over the own keys and relinquishing their own power. Even for the cynics this should be a shock.
We all like to yell at the Democrats, but it’s really Speaker Mike Johnson and Senate Majority Leader John Thune who are letting Elon Musk and his faceless goon squad make a mockery of their power as leaders of a coequal branch without uttering a peep or lifting a finger.
