Supreme Court declares tariffs unlawful. Trump says how horrible they are and pledges an extra 10% tariff on everyone.

Come on, even full on maga nut jobs have to realise he’s lost the plot soon.

You're assuming MAGA nutjobs have a plot themselves, to compare against.

i don’t get why this isn’t a much more prominent story, i’ve not even found it on the bbc yet:

JD Vance announced on Wednesday that the Trump administration would “temporarily halt” more than a quarter-billion dollars in Medicaid reimbursements to the state of Minnesota, escalating Donald Trump’s newly announced “war on fraud”.

Vance said the action was to ensure Minnesota was “a good steward of the American people’s tax money”

Blackmailing them by threatening to fuck over the most disadvantaged people?

that’s gone proper psycho.

The regime controls the press.

I see they’ve started bringing freedom to the middle east by blowing it to pieces again.

Considering how the Iranians killed over 30,000 of their own people recently then maybe it will reduce the death toll of civilians.

Surprising there is not more normal press on what's happening there.

Seems unlikely based on the US and Israel’s history tbh.

Foreign policy is a whole other can of worms, but withholding medical treatment from your own citizens to blackmail them is insane.

Israel reporting Khamenei has been killed.. whilst regime change in Iran is a good thing, without boots on ground this is going to turn into a massive civil/regional war (if true )

Hopefully the civilians who have been incredibly brave will be motivated to come out in even greater numbers and push the evil out.

Maybe Dave, but there’s no organised opposition party, it will be fractured, tribal and potentially many more will die because of Trump’s actions. Don’t forget, there’s no UN mandate here, European forces have not joined in, and this is being called the Epstein war by many as Trump is just looking for a distraction.. nothing had suddenly changed in Iran, but in the US plenty has

Is there some end game with this involving stopping the mid-terms?
