#RachelMaddow brings another mental backstory on the #Trump #tariffs🤯 :

Peter #Navarro, a quack #economist recruited by #JaredKushner as Trump's trade advisor, the suspect author of the insane tariff #formula, turns out to have created a fictional expert called #RonVara, an anagram of his name, to cite in his books & memos as a trusted source and justify the policy of so-called #reciprocal tariffs. Even made up an email address for him.

#DEMOCRATIC #SENATORS have got to stop talking the talk and start walking the walk!

#CONGRESSIONAL #DEMOCRATS must #SUBPOENAELONMUSK!

#DEMS must hold their own public probes of #ElonMusk #Musk #DOGE in front of cameras, even if the hearings are in a broom closet at the #US #Capitol!

#SheldonWhitehouse #AmyKlobuchar #DickDurbin #ChrisCoons #ChuckSchummer and #TammyDuckworth, to name a few, have been talking tough for years while slow walking #USA into #FASCISM hand in hand with #Republicans.

The #DemocraticParty had #4YEARS to #PROBE #JaredKushner and #IvankaTrump and the #2BILLION #Kushner and #Trump illegally acquired from #SaudiArabia yet they did #NOTHING!

#SENATE DEMOCRATS #FAILED to hold even #1HEARING on #DonaldTrump #Trump #CRIMES WHILE IN OFFICE!

The #FAIL of #JoeBiden and #MerrickGarland's #DOJ is matched only by the #FAILURE of #SENATEDEMOCRATS!

DEM SENATORS have proven they care more about maintaining the #StatusQuo than #Justice and #Liberty for #All.

#SUBPOENAMUSK!

""I have determined that it is no longer in the national interest for the following individuals to access classified information," Trump's memorandum read.

Former US presidents and top security officials usually keep their security clearance as a courtesy."
But #ElonMusk . . . #JaredKushner

On how the Saudi, Qatar and UAE are profiting from Israeli colonisation of Palestine land.

Gulf states are not doing much to help the Palestinian cause. In fact, they are complicit with US/Israel at an economic and military level.

A new opinion piece by a former ADL staffer who left last year after the group honored Jared Kushner:

===

I watched from the inside as the ADL erased racial justice from its civil rights priorities, caved to pressure from conservative media for being “too woke,” and quietly abandoned core education programs. The shift began with an internal pause on its use of the word “racism” while it sought a “new” definition (spoiler: they still don’t have one). Then, it removed “racial justice” from its portfolio altogether.

Rather than expand anti-bias education, it shut down a decades-old initiative that helped students challenge discrimination. Then, it removed more than 100 lesson plans that helped educators address bias against LGBTQ, Muslim, and immigrant students.

[but more importantly] Smith was a close business associate of #AmyGleason, who had worked at one of his companies as a chief product officer.
