I suggest using the #TradeWar tag for this kind of thing:

Meanwhile the current White House is demanding gratitude for this betrayal and Zelenskyy has to suffer these manipulative lying traitors to beg the American people & speak on behalf of his people to save them.
It’s so much worse than most even think.

Alt National Park Service ‪@altnps.bsky.social‬
You might not see it in the mainstream media, but over 10,000 people protested today at Tesla showrooms across the country, another 10,000+ rallied in support of national parks, and more than 1,000 gathered in Vermont to protest Vance’s visit.

I'm holding back tears... my child is running around school installing Linux on computers.

As Donald Trump's tariffs go into effect, imposing gratuitous financial burdens on ordinary people on both sides of the borders, it's important to remember that the original resistance to neoliberalism came from anti-capitalists who wanted to "make the earth a common treasury for all," not reactionary nationalists trying to return to the Gilded Age.

At the high point of the movement against capitalist globalization, hundreds of thousands of protesters repeatedly shut down global trade summits in order to call for a more equitable distribution of resources and agency. Anarchists were at the forefront of this, calling for the reinvention of the commons.

Neoliberals and neoconservatives banded together to suppress this so-called "anti-globalization" movement by brute force. As a result, nationalists like Trump were able to pretend to be the only alternative to neoliberalism.

But the nationalists only offer an even more brutal form of capitalism, as we are seeing today.

Even if their model succeeds neoliberalism as the new global order, that will not be the end of the story. Capitalism will render the earth uninhabitable, or we will abolish it. The struggle continues.

The London Economic: JD Vance claims UK ‘hasn’t fought a war in 40 years’ and everyone makes the same point

I don't feel sorry for veterans, Federal employees, farmers, and poor people who voted for Trump. They asked for this.

I don't feel sorry for the one-third of eligible voters who didn't cast a ballot. They asked for this.

I don't feel sorry for everyone who said the two parties were the same. They asked for this.

My heart goes out to the 75 million voters who cast a ballot for Harris and now have to suffer because Americans wanted a corrupt, unethical, Putin-loving criminal as president.

Boss wanted to make me "redundant" so she could give my position to her son at 2x what I'm paid. I had my cousin pretend to be a union rep & brought him to a meeting with her. She changed her mind about the redundancy & gave me a raise. Now joined a proper union seeing it works.

Think your money is safe in US banks? Swiss pension funds just banned US financial institutions from managing their resources owing to the “total lunacy” of US economic stewardship since the beginning of the year. Should be a pretty big red flag.

It strikes me as an academic question whether Trump is or isn't formally a Russian asset. The important thing is that he ACTS as though he is. And, as Trump's actions increasingly benefit America's long term foe, you've got to ask when the country will wake up and defend what's left from the recently installed enemy within. Right now Putin is winning the eighty year conflict.
