Steven Dennis: "The last time the Republicans embraced a maximalist #tariff policy was 1930. The Republican Party then was obliterated in successive elections. Republicans went from a 270-164 majority to holding just *88* seats in 1937. With a few exceptions, Democrats dominated the House for decades." #inflation #economy #politics #history

FWIW the DJIA has lost just under $1.9 trillion in market capitalization since #Trump took office. I suspect his tariffs will shave another few dollars off of the top. Pretty soon we'll be talking 'real money'.
Market Cap LossCurrent Market Cap=$62.2trillion×0.03=$1.866trillion=$62.2trillion−$1.866trillion=$60.334trillion
#Trump lied, of course.
"How did the U.S. arrive at its tariff figures?"

Photo of the Day
'Most people don’t understand combat. But pictures like Robert Capa’s help to get at the truth.'
It is June 6, 1944.
Photographer Robert Capa is aboard a troop ship heading towards Omaha Beach.
He will be the only civilian photographer to document the D-Day landings.
World War II wasn’t Capa’s first war.
He’d covered the Spanish Civil War and the war between Japan and China in the late 1930s.
For anyone living or visiting Barcelona with an interest in the history of Anarchism, I'm very glad to announce that I am offering an English language 'Guided Walk on the History of Anarchism in Barcelona'. I have more to say about this project and I'm looking forward to sharing more about it soon.
