I do think our founders would be surprised and alarmed that this current Congress has not jealously guarded its prerogatives as the legislative branch, not just in the last two years but over the last 25 years.
These new tariffs are more of the same: a nationwide sales tax that will make life even harder for families already struggling under the costs of Trump’s reckless war in Iran.
I truly fear for our health systems, particularly in rural areas as well as urban areas. They will not be able to withstand the full amount of these cuts once the bill is finally phased in.
I feel awe and I feel pride. And I also feel a certain burden to live up to what those Founders intended 250 years ago.
