How media can dish up a Truth Sandwich to deal with political lies. 1. Start with the truth. 2. Indicate the lie. 3. Return to the truth. Always repeat truths more than lies.

Trump circumvented Congress on tariffs by declaring a Fentanyl emergency. Congress can stop the tariffs. #DemocracyMatters. Call your representatives and tell them.

“They’re ignoring every rule of classic micro and macro economics. This is the policymaking equivalent of a suicide bomber…”. #DemocracyMatters. That’s why only Congress can make tax or tariff decisions. - By The People.- For The People. World Markets:.

I’d not expected that I’d value much of what Rand Paul might have to say, but this (rather long) speech seems to hit some points. At ~25m he talks about how using an emergency powers act for enacting tariffs is unconstitutional and would not pass SCOTUS.

Professor Scott Lucas on today’s announcement by Donald Trump (includes TV & radio links):. “That was the dumbest, most economically illiterate speech I have heard in my life — and I have heard a lot of bad ones. It was filled with lies and distortions.”.
