The US brought in nearly $30 Billion in tariffs in July, triple the amount collected in previous years
That's not good news
Tariffs are taxes on Americans
That $30B was collected from you and me when we bought food, clothes, electronics...

Attention @govwhitmer.bsky.social -- We are already having problems accessing COVID vaxxes here in Michigan.
Please use all your public health powers to keep our access to COVID and any other vaccines available to protect our health.
New Mexico is overriding the federal government on the topic of COVID19 vaccines to ensure their residents can access them.
States hold a tremendous amount of public health power. They should use it.

I watched #Katrina in real time, 2005. Thought I hated that bumbling Bush FEMA-toady Michael Brown enough back then.
But watching the @National Geographic documentary on Netflix tonight & WOW -- what a clueless, awful, selfish human being was Brown. You can add "fly-over" Pres Bush too.
Horrible.😡
I watched Katrina: Come Hell and High Water on Netflix.
Fuck everyone for trying to rehabilitate anyone from the George W. Bush administration.
He is giving Chief Justice Roger B. Taney a run for his money as WORST Chief Justice in U.S. history.
Taney was notoriously the author of the Dred Scott v. Sandford opinion that African Americans cannot be U.S. citizens & Congress could not prohibit slavery. Just a piece of Taney's awfulness . . .
Excellent and helpful. Thank you!

He has done amazing work both fundraising for good candidates and his "day job" as an expert on the ACA.
I can't thank him enough for all his good work. He's a treasure.
Charles does incredible fundraising work for the Democratic Party, & he does it for FREE, unless of course you want to leave him a tip.
He also does even more amazing work on healthcare costs & how it will impact people in their individual states.
Follow him for all of it...you won't regret it.

I don't disagree with your comments on nutrient dense foods / dollar.
I just found it a bit flippant to reduce people's grocery budgeting problems, struggling wages, and overall food insecurity to just -- stop eating animal flesh.
Perhaps you don't know any food insecure folks. Imagine them.
