To every MAGA genius screaming “bring back manufacturing” to avoid tariffs: You clearly don’t understand how the world works—or how anything works. —“Bring it back”? That takes years, if not decades. You think you’re just gonna snap your fingers and suddenly there’s a factory in Ohio cranking out iPhones or Teslas? You don’t even have the workers, the engineers, or the fking raw materials.** —Labor in the U.S. is expensive. Why do you think corporations moved overseas in the first place? Because you don’t want to pay $99.99 for a pair of socks. —Raw materials come from everywhere. Cobalt? Lithium? Rare earths? You can’t dig those up at your cousin’s barbecue. Even American-made goods rely on global supply chains—you break that, and the whole machine stalls. —No country is self-sufficient. Not even the U.S. Global economy means global survival. Cut yourself off, and the collapse starts within months, not years. Industries die, costs skyrocket, and your Walmart shelf starts looking like Soviet Russia. —And stop whining about “declining birth rates.” When you isolate yourself, economically and socially, people don’t f**k, they don’t move, they don’t build. They stagnate. And apparently, the only action MAGA gets is in family reunions. America isn’t another planet. It’s just one country in a massive, connected world. And if you can’t handle that reality, maybe your cousin-wife can explain it to you.

I just got off the phone with a business owner in Mississippi. He’s pumped millions into a business distributing a product he imports from China. His contract with the company prevents him from manufacturing it in the U.S. He also has contracts with a number of large retailers (Walmart, Walgreens, etc). He described some of those contracts as inflexible — requiring him to sell a unit at a set price. He told me he anticipates paying over $1 million in tariffs next week (as the 54% tariff kicks in) and has no ability to simply upcharge his retail customers to cover the expense. In his words, “Russ, I don’t have 54% profit. This is put me out of business stuff.” I share this because there are probably tens of thousands of businesses in similar situations. I just happened to have one reach out to me.

BREAKING: Nearly two dozen states sue the Trump administration over its decision to rescind billions in health funding. Follow live updates: apnews.com/live/donald-tr…

Here are the 10 Democrats in the House who voted to censure Rep. Al Green: Ami Bera -CA Jim Himes - CT Marie Gluesenkamp Perez - WA Ed Case - HI Chrissy Houlahan -PA Tom Suozzi - NY Jim Costa - CA Marcy Kaptur - OH Laura Gillen - NY Jared Moskowitz - FL Al Green and Shomari Figures voted present. Shameful.

🚨 BREAKING: The House just voted 211-209 to move forward with censuring Rep. Al Green—all because he dared to protest Trump’s speech. Green was already physically removed from the chamber, but that wasn’t enough for these thin-skinned authoritarians. Now they want to officially punish him for calling out their gutting of Medicaid. This isn’t about “decorum.” It’s about silencing dissent. Republicans are out here defending Trump’s insurrectionists, but censuring a Black congressman for speaking up? That’s the priority. Al Green spoke the truth, and now they want him erased for it.

Members of the Jewish community have taken over Trump Tower in solidarity with Mahmoud Khalil, chanting, “We want justice! You say how? Bring Mahmoud home now!” They are also drawing parallels between Trump’s ICE and Hitler’s Gestapo... reddit.com/r/WorkersStrik…

For the rest of my life, I will never understand how a country full of people busting their asses, working paycheck to paycheck, allow the fucking richest guy on Earth to call them "parasites" while calling the Social Security we contributed to our entire lives "a Ponzi scheme." It will NEVER make sense.

BREAKING: President Trump is reportedly set to sign an executive order this week to abolish the Department of Education. Dismantling public education is how they keep people uninformed, making them more susceptible to conspiracy theories and more likely to vote against their own interests.
