BREAKING
Remember when we said NY AG Letitia James had the power to investigate Trump tariff-related stock market manipulation and insider trading?
IT'S HAPPENING.
James just confirmed an investigation has been opened.

I don't know who needs to hear this, but EVERY FUCKING RETAILER needs to show the tariffs next to the price -- not just Amazon.
Walmart, Target (where I do not shop), ALL OF THEM. It's a fucking tax, why shouldn't we see it?
I want to know exactly how much trump's tariffs are jacking my prices up. DON'T YOU?
I’m going to say something that shouldn’t be controversial but will be. If you are a Christian, you can support border control and immigration being legal vs illegal. You CANNOT celebrate deportations and get off on the cruelty, and be a real Christ follower. Period

Sometimes, when he fails badly enough, Trump can be forced to do the thing he says he never does: back down.
Today is just one more turn on the roller coaster - but it is more evidence of why we can't give up or let up.
VERY unpopular opinion:
Humans were never meant to be this busy that’s why everybody is anxious and depressed.

I refuse to be the kind of person who loses their mind over a delayed train or lets a spilled coffee set the tone for the whole day.
I want to be the one who stays composed, who sees the good even when things don’t go as planned. The kind of person who breathes through the little chaos and still finds beauty in how the day unfolds.
I want to be soft. I want to be steady.
I'm not concerned about the undocumented immigrant with some parking and speeding tickets. I'm concerned about the American citizen with 34 felony convictions who is driving America right into a fucking ditch.

We live in a time that people are more inclined to obey an unlawful executive order than they are to follow a court order 🤦🏾♀️.
Dictators are created due to cruelty, cowardice, & compliance! IF THEIR ASSES will ignore the Supreme Court, we can definitely IGNORE HIM!

Hitler, like most demagogues, was intellectually lazy. Personally brave, he volunteered for service in the Kaiser’s army in the Great War (unlike trump, who called those who served and were killed in combat losers), and was wounded in action, but was not promoted above the rank of Corporal because he wasn’t considered bright enough to become a commissioned officer. He could read an audience and perfected his oratorical skills, but his speeches were the usual diatribes and angry posturings that …
Excellent assessment.
it is indeed. isn't the prevailing wisdom now that Hitler and Stalin, faced with the same information, had polar opposite responses to the invasion of Russia. Stalin (after he got out of the bed and decided to do something. he decided to trust his generals. Hitler, not just a madman but a madman on METH, decided his generals were cowardly fools and not to be taken seriously. it didn't go well for him.

Stalin listened to generals who were successful, who followed his orders. He and Hitler were both psycopathic madmen. Stalin got rid of lots of generals throughout the war.
