Is the DOGE hotline still working? I feel like if we can't use it for all this wasted time and effort on the tariff bullshit, then what can we use it for?
The irony of his tariff bullshit is that there's about 20 other tools he could use to have the exact impact as tariffs, that aren't tariffs, that are well within his Constitutional authority. But because he doesn't know anything about economics, so he doesn't know those tools actually exist. I'm definitely guilty of this.
Unfortunately ICE is now coming to my backyard. They’ve purchased a warehouse in the next town over, maybe 3 miles from my house, to use as a concentration camp. In addition to the overall insanity and illegality of this, I get to find out that even more of my friends, neighbors and relatives are really, really shitty people who think this is simply splendid. Have I mentioned how much I fucking hate people?
We'll see how splendid they think it is if they get their wish, every last undocumented immigrant is removed, and iceberg lettuce is suddenly $8 a head. If you can get it. People here ( Upstate NY ) don't understand how dependent agriculture is on the very people they want rounded up and deported.
