"It appears that the use of Signal is a widespread practice in the Department of Defense in order to “communicate with the White House.”
Therefore, we should assume that foreign hackers have read every message between the White House and the Department of Defense over the last 63 days."

"There is no Secret Genius lurking in the Trump administration. They’re not playing 3-D chess. There’s not some grand strategy. No, Occam’s Razor cuts deep here, and lots of blood may soon be spilled as a result of the evident implication:
The most powerful people in the world are both stupid and incompetent."
~ Brian Klaas
"At the White House yesterday, Donald Trump announced he’s imposing a 25 percent tariff on all imported cars. He’s described April 2, the day in which his reciprocal tariffs regime will supposedly be fully implemented, as 'liberation day' for the United States."
~ Aaron Rupar and Thor Benson

"But scratch the surface of this bluster and it quickly becomes clear that Trump’s ideas about tariffs and their alleged benefits are a combination of confused and baseless."
@wdlindsy
You seem to think he means what he says. He's not smart, but he knows enough not to say, for example, that this is part of his plan to crush Canada.
@wdlindsy They wanted April 1st, but that's his day.
If I had to buy a reliable daily driver car next month, I'd have about $8k extra"liberated" from my money.
Reliable. Like a Toyota.
It would be $8k extra.
