New from Hunterbrook: OSHA is investigating Universal Stainless (now owned by Aperam), involved in multiple V-22 Osprey incidents, after a worker died this week at a company plant. Per an employee: “If they do a full inspection, they're definitely gonna shut that place down.”

This is truly amazing. The Deputy White House Press Secretary is claiming that I'm wrong, and that the "tariff rates" on Trump's chart were calculated by "literally" measuring every country's tariffs and non-tariff trade barriers. To prove it, he screenshots the formula the USTR

Just two years ago, the Florida Legislature ended sham litigation practices that made billboard lawyers rich at our expense. Auto insurance premiums are now going down for the first time in memory, saving Florida drivers millions. Billboard lawyers want those savings back in

In 2017, only a quarter of voters thought the Trump tax cuts were positive. A recent Navigator survey found, “By a 10-point margin, Americans believe that Trump’s tax plan will “hurt people like me.”

In 2017, Cone Mills shuttered their White Oak plant in Greensboro, North Carolina, the last US selvedge denim mill. The mill had been continuously operating since its founding in 1905. The gov should have helped this operation so we can sell fully MiUSA jeans abroad.

"China makes crappy clothes anyway, so who cares?" This is a very outdated view. Let me show you just one shop in Beijing, which I think makes clothes that surpasses Loro Piana, The Row, or whatever luxury ready-to-wear brand you can name. 🧵

Making the assumption that charities will not collapse under the load, Ron DeSantis sticks his hand in taxpayer's pockets to throw your money to GOP NGOs. (Like their pseudopublic privately run schools.) Evidently nobody told him charity has limits. miamiherald.com/news/politics-…

Pam Bondi just crossed the Rubicon into defying the United States Supreme Court. Will Ron DeSantis approve? Will the fur fly? Do Attys General even have fur? Go Florida Man/Woman!

The prime minister ran in the 1st national election in his life, 3 months ago was doing a different job. The Liberals 3 months ago were 25 percentage points behind. 2 of the 4 leaders have lost their seats, 1 lost his job Tell me this isn't one of the best politics stories ever.

MAGA and GOP going nuts over 86-ing is so precious. Their feelies are so vulnerable to baaaad men. But the 8646 t-shirt was actually humor the libs didn't understand. Puhleeze spare me.
