  • Trump exempts phones, computers, chips from new tariffs

  • As a side note, can you imagine being an accountant and trying to keep track of the tariff declarations that are changing daily?

  • Who’s In and Who’s Out at the Naval Academy’s Library: An order by Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth’s office resulted in a purge of books critical of racism but preserved volumes defending white power.

  • It's a white supremacist party. This is what happens when you elect the party of white supremacy.

  • DHS sends deportation notice to a US-born Citizen, who happens to be an immigration lawyer - "Leave in 7 days, or else"

    Jump

  • Unless the immigration lawyer in question is on parole as the letter stipulated, it's either a mistake, a malicious fake, or a malicious effort by the administration to provoke self-deportation with a wide net.

  • GOP megadonor rages at Trump’s ‘bulls**t’ tariffs

    Jump

  • It's not concern about theft, it's just penny-ante nickel-and-dime BS to get you to buy more than you need. But as you said, it's so hostile to customers that you wind up going somewhere else for bigger ticket items. Of course the opportunity cost is invisible to them.

  • It's great that you have that option. Really makes it easy for you

  • GOP megadonor rages at Trump’s ‘bulls**t’ tariffs

    Jump

  • I hate that I can't avoid them entirely in my area except for nuts-and-bolts type things, which I go to my local hardware store for. Home Depot and Lowe's have a monopoly in my area when it comes to most goods, but I had to give up on Lowe's entirely due to the truly terrible customer experience.

    (Home Depot has a bad customer experience too, but my local Lowe's is on a different level.)

  • Trump says things are 'going very well' after worst stock market drop in years over tariffs

    Jump

  • I've seen a 30% drop since this whole thing began. I'm not looking to divest for another 18 months, but that's assuming he doesn't completely collapse the economy for years...

  • Sure, if there's a depression.

  • Musk’s Doge gains access to federal payroll system despite staff warnings

    Jump

  • On Friday, the federal employees reportedly asked the Doge workers to deliver the memo to Doug Burgum, the interior secretary, for his signature, thereby assuming the legal responsibility for the associated risks.

    However, Burgum reportedly never signed the memo. [...]

    Meanwhile, Tyler Hassan, the recently named interior department’s acting assistant secretary of policy, management and budget and a former Doge employee, reportedly placed two of the IT officials who had resisted the Doge employees on administrative leave and under investigation for their “workplace behavior”, according to the two sources.

    Thank you to the IT workers that refused to cooperate with this order and pushed back repeatedly.

  • Get outta here with that negativity. It's the first sign of life from Senate Democrats, and taking a moral stance against Trump is still important. We need more of this, not less.

  • Watch it live here.

    He was just reading letter after letter after letter from American seniors who are scared about what the administration might do to Social Security. Really helps bring home that these are real people who are affected.

    Edit: 15 hours now and he's still going strong. He just gave a fiery speech about how his colleagues need to do more.

    Edit: 25 hours. He beat the record. At least it won't be held by a racist anymore.
