The President had literally months to prepare his response to the Supreme Court ruling, yet couldn't even stick with his decision on the s.122 (temporary) tariff from Friday to Saturday, raising it from 10% to 15%.
Morning.

A meme a day keeps depression at bay (according to Brainworm!)
"when Trump announced the idea of tariffs to address the trade deficit... every economist around the country said: That's a very bad idea, that won't work....
If you look at 2025 as a whole, we have basically the same trade deficit...
So I'm going to score this one for the economist, mate."
I HAVE SEEN ENOUGH. AS GOVERNOR OF THE FREE WORLD, I, GAVIN C. NEWSOM, AM OFFICIALLY BANNING "KID ROCK" FROM CALIFORNIA. HIS SHIRTLESS VIDEO WITH "SECRETARY BRAINWORM" WAS INAPPROPRIATE, CREEPY, AND VERY LOW ENERGY. NOT WHAT YOU WANT AROUND OUR CHILDREN! ALSO, SOME OF THE WEAKEST PUSHUPS EVER WITNESSED. CALIFORNIA ONLY ALLOWS WINNERS! I AM ALSO BANNING WORKING OUT IN JEANS, VERY STRANGE! THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER! — GOVERNOR GCN

Something about hummingbirds, always put a smile on my face when I see 'em :3
The press has reported on yesterday’s Supreme Court decision as if it were only about tariffs. Wrong. It’s far bigger and even more important. Let me explain. https://robertreich.substack.com/p/the-supreme-courts-tariff-decision

Good morning, friends. Some days we just need to drink our coffee strong, play our music loud, and seize our opportunities. Turn up the volume, sip that motivation, and reach for your goals today! #Jaye’sMorningLight

Ticket sellers. Rental companies. Chain restaurants.
When they quietly charge nickel-and-dime junk fees, it can cost you thousands of dollars per year.
It’s about time for everyday Illinoisans to take control and get the relief they deserve by banning that practice.
Justice for Dr. Linda Davis. ICE must be held accountable for the deadly chain of events and the cruel aftermath.
Her memory lives on in every life she touched.
Respondents have already wasted valuable time and resources. Worst of all, not only does detention without due process deprive members of the Bond Eligible Class of their liberty, economic stability, and fundamental dignity, but it also harms their families, communities, and the fabric of this very nation. IT IS SO ORDERED.
Wow.
Fed. judge tells DHS, ICE, Sec. Noem, AG Bondi, EOIR and others that they are harming "the fabric of this very nation" by defying a court order that vacated their automatic-detention policy.

Kudos to Stephen Colbert for standing up for himself and against tyranny.
I've always been a fan of his — going way back to the Colbert Report years.
I enjoyed chatting with him in August. Here's a brief clip from our discussion.
If you’ve felt exhausted, anxious, or numb in the face of nonstop political turmoil, you’re not imagining it and you're definitely not alone.
