A reminder that when Donald Trump threatens tariffs, he's threatening a tax on working families.
He already owes Illinoisans $8,679,261,600 from his last round — and now he's waiting to throw in more to the pot.

While negotiations were cratering, Trump hit up a UFC fight, attacked the Pope as "WEAK" on crime and impersonated Jesus.
It’s almost like a coordinated talking point went out on Red Cross doctor Jesus H. Trump.
Yeah but they don’t get to worry about the price of brent crude
lego trump in bed sweating as doll/girl looks on
In the latest Iranian Lego propaganda film, Trump is shown in his bed with either a large doll or a small girl. Yikes.
It was not that long ago when conservatives had a chokehold on every branch of Wisconsin government, piles of Koch and Uline money, and seemed unstoppable. People worked FUCKING HARD to change that shit and now look at em. Change is always possible and never ever easy.
He still needs to be removed from office. A war powers resolution will not suffice. He circumvented Congress to start the war. He circumvented them on tariffs and appropriations. Why anyone thinks he'd adhere to a Congressional war powers resolution is beyond me.
Yep. It was connected.
Right before the World Cup?
If your first move is trying to shut down America’s busiest airports, you’re really hitting the ground running — blocking tourism industry and ruining our economy.
BREAKING! Excellent news!
If you're in Ohio, or know people there, today is the deadline to register to vote. Please CHECK to make sure you're still registered and weren't purged from the rolls.
Lots of focus on Trump’s unhinged language, but not many pointing out that he extended his own deadline again.
Discharging Trump under the 25th Amendment would ultimately require a 2/3 vote in the House and a 2/3 vote in the Senate.
Impeachment requires a majority in the House and removal requires 2/3 of the Senate.
If I’m reading 25A correctly, impeachment is easier. Please let me know if I’m wrong!
PSA (bc of a debate I saw): Some parts of Europe have a bank holiday tomorrow (including my teeny corner of it).
Shit will go down tomorrow. But understand some people will be working weekend hours.

Watch this episode - there are so many reasons it will make you feel less alone. Thanks to @lincolnsbible.bsky.social and @gregolear.bsky.social for being the people we all want to talk with about the demise of our democratic republic.
Meanwhile from today’s Telegraph…
As time has gone on I've realized there is a still quite small but now non-trivial chance that the entire Iran War is simply an insider trading operation, creating repeated black swan moments and relying on markets continued willingness to gyrate wildly in the face of absurd and predictably ...
Donald Trump is threatening your health and well-being to reward his fossil fuel donors.
While he sells out our nation's future, I won't stop believing in the science and fighting for what Illinoisans need — affordable energy, clean air and water, and good jobs.
Thank you for expressing exactly how I feel. Well said!
@craigunger.bsky.social i feel like im taking crazy pills. You literally wrote multiple books, years ago, about Trump being an asset.
We keep yelling & the msm says, settle down & pats us on the head. Just recently

NEW: What’s happening in the US is TECHNOFASCISM.
It’s fascism + surveillance technologies. Palantir is playing a central role. And the UK is next in line.

THEY DID IT. EVERY SENATE DEMOCRAT just voted on an amendment to DEFUND ICE (rescind the BBB slush fund that keeps ICE open during a shutdown.) This amendment failed, but it shows broad support! KEEP CALLING and make it a demand to vote for the DHS funding bill!!
