As a small-business owner, wine importer Victor O. Schwartz has plenty of reasons to dislike the president’s policies. For almost 40 years, Schwartz has owned and operated VOS Selections, an importer and distributor of fine wines from 16 countries. Tariffs on wine have frustrated his industry since 2018, making the already heavily taxed business of sourcing from small farms and importing bottles from abroad more expensive. When Trump’s second-term tariffs were first announced last April, it looked like an even worse disaster for American wine importers than the first term. But the tariffs were also when he realized, unlike so many frustrated by Trump, he had an opportunity to do something. The weekend after the announcement of the tax on imports, a relative mentioned that their law professor, Ilya Somin, had put out a call for plaintiffs to challenge the tariffs. Somin a ragtag crew of small businesses who wanted to file a case against the administration: a tackle store on Lake Erie in Pennsylvania, a pipe manufacturer in Utah, a women’s cycling brand in Vermont, the maker of a banana-shaped synth in Virginia, and, eventually, Victor Schwartz and his wine-importing business. Within a few days, Somin, together with attorneys from the Liberty Justice Center, asked Schwartz to be the lead plaintiff.

Imagine if Donald Trump went after Epstein’s clients the way he attacks America First-er’s @TuckerCarlson, @megynkelly @RealCandaceO, @mtgreenee @RealAlexJones When Donald Trump calls these patriots “low IQ,” he’s not just attacking them, he’s calling nearly 50 million Americans “low IQ” who listen to Tucker Carlson, Megyn Kelly, Candace Owens, Marjorie Taylor Greene, and Alex Jones, and agree with them. Let that sink in. Trump has betrayed America.

This should go without saying, but every American Catholic needs to get it into their head that their loyalty is to the Catholic Church over Donald Trump. There can be no ambiguity on this.
