It hasn't hurt enough of the right people yet. When it does, then I'll be alarmed at any lack of response.
The 2nd Amendment has always been a bullshit excuse for people to hoard guns against government being used against them and only them. It's not a "well regulated militia" as that requires fucking organization, planning, and working as a unit with commanding officers. And one fucking person with guns is going to get steamrolled by 2 trained fucking soldiers. It's whackadoodles cosplaying US Army who are the people always blathering about the 2nd Amendment and "cold dead hands."
Fucking worthless like most of the morons in this country who have the perspective of a fish in a mostly opaque fishbowl.
Trouble arrives when the opponents to such a system institute its extreme opposite, where individualism becomes godlike and sacrosanct, and no greater service to any other ideal (including community) is possible. In such a system rapacious greed thrives behind the guise of freedom, and the worst aspects of human nature come to the fore....

U.S. Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick called Ontario Premier Doug Ford on Tuesday for a “tough and aggressive” conversation after the Ontario government announced its plan to slap a 25 per cent export tax on the electricity it supplies to three U.S. states, CTV News has learned.
Sources said Lutnick asked Ford to back off his retaliatory tariffs, but the Ontario premier refused so long as U.S. President Donald Trump’s sweeping tariffs remain in effect.

Someone else said it best...he's a corrupt, lying sack of shit....but he's OUR corrupt lying sack of shit... and that's kind of what we need right now to combat the lying sack of shit in the White House who is threatening our country...Ford has never had a problem getting down into the muck and flinging his shit at people...it's just aimed in the right direction this time. LOL
So yeah, I like it too. I have deep problems with the guys politics (always have and always will)...but I doubt Bonnie Crombie or Marit Styles (who ran against him in the recent election) would have been in "attack dog" mode like this...so he does seem to be the guy we need right now.

Jack Daniel's maker says Canada pulling US alcohol off stores 'worse than tariff'
Good. Get. Fucking. Wrecked.
Kentucky governor says Trump’s tariffs on Canada are not what Americans voted for
Yes you did. Kentucky voted OVERWHELMINGLY for Trump. You very much voted for this. He said he was going to do tariffs BEFORE the election. You knew and you voted for him anyways...and quite frankly your senator is the REASON Trump had another stab at the Oval Office in the first place when he didn't vote to remove him after impeachment....so....
GET. FUCKING. WRECKED.

One could argue that the tariffs were in fact his only specific campaign proposal. Everything else was generalized immigration scaremongering, trans panic, and lying about his ties to Project 2025.
They came with white hands and left with red hands.

Alitos dissent about the recent USAID case is frightening. He not only disagrees with the majority but implies lower court judges shouldn’t have the power to force the US government to pay the 2 billion.
The naked partisanship is in full swing. When a single Texas judge was on the verge on banning nationwide abortion they didn’t have the same concerns. Now every republican is worried about judicial over reach.
They want to sets of rules and have been living by them for years but they are now trying to bring out into the open.
