The American people were betrayed by two senators who couldn’t bother to show up and vote against Trump’s outrageous “Liberation Day” tariffs.
and both knew what was at stake. They’ve both opposed these tariffs before. But when it came time to vote? One ghosted with no explanation. The other prioritized a conference in South Korea.
Their absence killed the resolution. Their absence handed JD Vance the power to break the tie and keep Trump’s authoritarian trade scam alive.
is absolutely right. Tariffs are taxes. And Congress, not the executive, should hold that power.
We need to strip that authority back from the White House and restore it to the people’s representatives. No more excuses. No more absences. Do your job or get out of the way.
