#Trump threatens EU with ‘substantial’ #tariffs over fines of US tech giants. His answer to everything is to raise the prices you pay. https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026/jul/24/trump-european-union-tariffs?CMP=share_btn_url

This is why I've completely stopped watching #CBSNews

#Trump claims his new #tariffs are against countries that permit "forced labor," but the list "even included countries such as Norway, which have been among the world’s leaders in combating forced labor and slave labor. By Greer’s test, the United States, with its use of prison labor and forced labor in ICE detention camps, as well as its failure to enforce the Uyghur Forced Labor Prevention Act, should be on the blacklist." Everything this administration does is a lie. https://prospect.org/2026/07/24/trumps-tariff-sham-jamieson-greer-canada/

You can't make this stuff up: "A #Republican-controlled House committee passed legislation earlier this week that would prevent the US Labor Department from enacting federal standards to protect workers from extreme #heat, a move that came amid sweltering heat across the country."https://www.commondreams.org/news/republicans-worker-heat-protections

#AbolishICE

The best Penzeys promotion ever:

"Historically, pediatricians have been granted formal opportunities to observe family detention. These visits allowed outside experts to share insights that could lead to improvements in care for detained children. Now, due to de facto restrictions on visitation since 2025, our insight only comes from publicly reported accounts from lawyers, 911 calls, and young people who have been released from detention. And they paint a grave and alarming picture: children being rushed to the hospital in respiratory distress; moldy food with worms making children sick; children as young as 5 years old attempting suicide; and many children being held in detention for several months."

If you live in the U.S., your taxes pay for this.

"#DonaldTrump has taken the war with #Iran into a new, murkier phase as the two sides move further and further from the vague memorandum of understanding (MoU) signed on 17 June.

"And as during the opening phase of the conflict, the US leader’s objectives and methods are clouded in confusion, daily U-turns and boasts that within hours are revealed to be false." https://www.theguardian.com/world/2026/jul/15/chaos-confusion-no-closer-resolution-strait-hormuz-us-iran-donald-trump

"Per the tally posted online Monday night, the White House Office of Management and Budget (OMB) has been flooded with nearly half a million comments, including many from members of Defend Public Health, over its proposed rule that would essentially politicize all federal grants. DPH is both celebrating the massive effort to create a public record of opposition and preparing for the next steps in the campaign to stop the rule."

I'm overwhelmed by the outpouring of love for #LindseyGraham. People truly love that he's dead.

Oh great. #ICE not only murdered someone, it wasn't even the guy they meant to go after. It's like the Three Stooges but with a body count. https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026/jul/09/houston-man-killed-ice-agents
