['This Content Is Not Subject To Review Daily Kos Staff Prior To Publication.']
Date: 2025-04-10
We have Good News and Bad News. Bad news includes tariffs on Tuesday, and 481 known cases of measles. Good News: more than 5 million Handsoff protesters last Saturday; a plan to get 3.5% of the country out for 50501 protests on April 19th (11 million or so); more court cases; bipartisan bills to rein in Presidential tariff authority (under veto threat, of course); vast tariff blowback around the world; pointing and laughing to the max.
Truckin’ my blues away!
Take care of yourselves, and keep going.

Chris Hayes keeps doing wonderful rants against the “insanity” [sic], and Rachel Maddow continues to have Too Much Fun highlighting protests and the maladministration caving. She accordingly invited us to go spelunking with her last night.
