I think our opinions on the law are irrelevant here. The SOCTUS said it’s lawful for the president to impose tariffs. So the only way to change the SOCTUS decision is to pass another law making it explicit that the president doesn’t have these powers.
I’m not a lawyer so I can’t interpret the law. However, the judicial branch can and there haven’t been any rulings which have indicated that the president didn’t have the power to set tariffs.
Another law would be needed to be passed so judicial rulings could say the president didn’t have this power.
I’m not sure if this is true. It was delegated to the executive branch starting around 1930.
China has the edge, here. Its communist single-party system and centralized planning allow them to quickly adapt. The US, as a democracy, moves slower making it harder to change. I think China knows this, and they’re betting the U.S. will cave first.
To be fair it’s not just Trump. 2/3 of congress could step in at any time to take tariff powers away from the president, but they choose not to.
European companies and communities already host decentralized alternatives like Mastodon, a federated network powered by the homegrown Mastodon software. These GDPR-compliant tools allow users to control data and interconnect across servers—a model echoing the EU’s federalist values. However, fragmentation, lack of user-friendly UI and underfunding limit their reach. A unified EU initiative could fund these projects while the alliance of European companies and communities could merge these projects into a public-private platform. It is in the best interest of the European Union to provide funding for European-owned social media platforms to ensure their development and European digital sovereignty.
It would be awesome if the EU started funding the Fediverse.
I didn’t mean to imply they weren’t already more productive than in-office workers.
I’m saying that the effort taking away support from remote workers should instead be going toward supporting them.
We should be learning how to make remote workers more productive. Not forcing them back to the office.
Sure, they are reporting stories that align with American interests, but it is through accurate reporting, not disinformation.
For example, VoA extensively covered what was going on with the Uyghur population in China.
So true
risks compromising the clarity
What a made up argument to fix an issue noone has.
There’s a right way to destabilize a country. Provide accurate and bias-free reporting like Voice of America and Radio Free Europe/Asia. This gives people access to independent journalism. Not what Trump is doing.
The worst part is the helplessness the electorate has to stop it. Can we get some democratic candidates who are anti-genocide?
Let’s bring back being decent to people.
To be fair, it’s worth gathering the evidence. There are people who still believe that Elon is a free speech advocate.
