We're living in a country where the president just randomly raises taxes on a whim because he's in a snit - and no one stops him, even though the Constitution gives him zero power over tariffs. This is not a constitutional republic at the moment.

Trump is raising US tariffs on Canada by 10% because he's unhappy that Ontario ran an ad quoting Ronald Reagan on why tariffs are bad. This is, of course, insane, and Trump has no legal authority to raise tariffs for that reason. If the Supreme Court can see this and still accept Trump's national-security/national emergency argument for why he should be able to impose whatever tariffs he wants on whomever he wants, they are not serious people.

Southeast PA is the whole reason there’s even any money to spend on rural stuff. Philly area reps should get the red carpet treatment in the Capitol

The reason ICE is masked has nothing to do with their safety. DEA agents taking down drug dealers don’t routinely mask. FBI agents, like my dad, don’t mask when arresting terrorists and serial killers. ICE masks because they are not a professional force with proper training. They mask because if you know who they are, you can find out their backgrounds. How many have criminal records? How many have domestic assault records? Most law enforcement officers are proud of their work. These cowards are afraid to be identified for a reason. But this is 2025 and every person is carrying a camera. Every person has access to a computer. Drones are cheap. Good luck in hiding, boys.

ICE abruptly stops car in middle of road—pulls out gun or taser & rushes to confront woman driver. Agents know exactly who the woman is—a well known activist who's been filming ICE for weeks. This is retaliation against a U.S. citizen—just for exercising their First Amendment right to film law enforcement in public spaces. The incident took place in Ventura County, California. #DemVoice1 #wtpBLUE #DemsUnited

Yep. And the more you look at that guilty-as-hell post he made about the Epstein files, the more you have to think he knows something about his relationship with Epstein is about to drop. Like he’s been called for comment about something. Pure panic.

Trump’s entirely capable of firing the Fed chair and wrecking the dollar to distract from his close friendship with a criminal sex abuser. That’s the nature of the man.

Could you imagine a president of the United States tanking the bond market to distract from a sex scandal? Not possible, right? Like some kind of crazy movie script too absurd even for Hollywood?

A suburban synougoue receiving much necessary funding through a state highway department really demonstrates how critical public funds were for just about every sort of suburbanization:

Reminder re Trump and Epstein: Trump in 2002: “I’ve known Jeff for 15 years. Terrific guy. He’s a lot of fun to be with. It is even said that he likes beautiful women as much as I do, and many of them are on the younger side.” How was Trump not aware of what Epstein was up to?

Via @fiona_ndre: For years, persecuted Christians abroad — including Iranian Christians — has been a cause célèbre on the right, including Trump. But this week, CBP arrested Iranian Christian asylum-seekers as their pastor looked on, despondent. religionnews.com/2025/06/27/pas…
