Trump & company want to turn us into Taiwan circa 1985. But the brilliant minds behind the idea of intentionally weakening the dollar are prioritizing making America a good place to manufacture rather than a good place to live. If the administration stays on this track, this country will have lower incomes, higher inflation, and weaker buying power—and more expensive beer and tomatoes.

In honor of Military Appreciation Month, Verizon thought of a lot of different ways we could show our appreciation. Like rolling out the red carpet. Giving you your own personal marching band. or throwing a bumping shindig. At Verizon, we're doing all that in the form of special military offers.
That's why this month only, we're giving military and veteran families a $200 Verizon gift card and a phone on us with a select trade-in and a new line on select unlimited plans.

Hello and welcome to the Bored Podcast. I'm your host, Tim Miller. We've got a Tariffpalooza doubleheader today that I'm really excited about. In the second segment, it's Congressman Chris Deluzio, who I might have sent a little snarky tweet about last week, and so I was thrilled that he's willing to come on and hash it out with me.
But up first, he writes the very serious newsletter on Substack and co-hosts the legal podcast Serious Trouble with Popat, a.k.a. Ken White. It is Josh Barrow, also fresh off Coachella. So we'll see how well our brains are popping for you guys today.
I'm doing great, Tim.
You're at 100?
I'm totally refreshed. Really? I'm happy for you. What did you do yesterday? Did you get a massage or something? Green juice? No, I took two flights. I drove to the Inland Empire from Coachella and then flew through Salt Lake City to New York. Okay. Nice Delta Airlines day.
