About Those Tariffs,
I’m reading The Guardian’s live updates. Here are a couple of them.
First, I love Sen. Professor Warren:
Lawmakers react to supreme court ruling against Trump’s tariffs
We’re starting to see members of Congress react to the supreme court ruling that many of Donald Trump’s global tariffs are illegal.
Democratic senator Elizabeth Warren, said that no decision can “undo the massive damage that the Trump tariffs have done to small businesses, to American supply chains, and especially to American families forced to pay higher prices on everything from groceries to housing”.
She added that there is “no legal mechanism for consumers and many small businesses to recoup the money they have already paid”.
“Giant corporations with their armies of lawyers and lobbyists can sue for tariff refunds, then just pocket the money for themselves. It’s one more example of how the game is rigged,” said Warren, who is the ranking member on the Senate banking committee. “Any refunds from the federal government should end up in the pockets of the millions of Americans and small businesses that were illegally cheated out of their hard-earned money by Donald Trump.”

Haha. Also note, he’s true to form of accusing his opposition of what’s true about himself and his cult.
Trump lambasts liberal justices on supreme court, says they’re being ‘swayed by foreign interests’ without providing evidence
In his remarks today, Trump lambasted the liberal supreme court justices today, as well as those who concurred with the opinion that the use of IEEPA was illegal.
“The Democrats on the court are thrilled,” Trump said. “They’re against anything that makes America strong, healthy and great again. They also are a frankly, disgrace to our nation, those justices.”
He went on to criticize “certain” members of the court, which would include justices he nominated to the bench – such as Neil Gorsuch and Amy Coney Barrett.
“They’re very unpatriotic and disloyal to our constitution,” Trump added. “It’s my opinion that the court has been swayed by foreign interests and a political movement that is far smaller than people would ever think,” he said without citing any evidence for his claims.

I was an abused boy trying to deal with his budding sexuality being gay. I did not think I gave off signs but the bullies sensed my vulnerability because I did not form friends and stayed to myself. So they attacked me. What shocked me was not that the bullies attacked me but that the teachers in the 1970s joined in, giving the bullies full permission to do so while restricting my grades. Remember, I was not an out gay kid, I was an abused boy trying to keep his head down and get by each day. But the future maga sinced my vunerablebiltey and attacked me. Once it went around the school my entire teen school years became agony. That is what the republican Christian nationalists are trying to drive us back to. It changed in the 2000s with anti bulling and anti-discrimination programs. tRump’s amdin has desperately attempted to remove all those programs and protections. Hugs
Plenty of gay men took their husbands name or they both hyphenated both their names. So these gay couples would not have a matching birth certificate. I am one of those. I took Ron’s last name deperatly wanting to leave my abusive adoptive parents last name very far behind. Hugs
About these letters. Allison Gill on the Daily Beans news podcast gave sourced reports that ICE detention agents raided the children’s rooms at this detention concentration camp for children / families and took all their letters with the intent to destroy their reports of what was happening to them. Allison Gill has sued the government in court to save them and get them published. I fear it will be too late. Hugs.
We know she is a Russian asset and this further evidence that our republican government has been bought or compromised by Russia.

“Our flag is red, white, and blue, but our nation is a rainbow—red, yellow, brown, black, and white—and we are all precious in God’s sight.”
Many people have requested such wearable designs lately, so I was happy to oblige. Just a bunch of funny, silly, lighthearted designs, yes, such as:
-“Sorry babe, I can’t make it to the function tonight, I have fascists to punch” (my personal favorite);
-“Abolish ICE” but in a beautiful gradient from the future;
-“Nerds against ICE” with a natural 20 (they are messing with the wrong DnD party);
-“I thought we agreed that concentration camps were BAD”;
-“ICE OUT” but in trans colors for added conservative nightmares.
There’s also a few variants and other new stuff! Check them out here.
We know from testimony that there were abuse videos made and sent to Epstein. Trigger warning the meme below is very graphic and difficult to read. Hugs
