House Republicans literally alter time to avoid responsibility for Trump wrecking the economy - Rachel Maddow - MSNBC

[Rhiannon12866]

Rachel Maddow explains how House Republicans had the power to take away Donald Trump's ability to casually throw around trade tariffs in a way that is roiling markets and provoking trade wars, but instead of using their power to protect the economy (and the American public) from Trump's impulsiveness, they gave away their power and went out of their way to twist the rules to do so. - Aired on 03/11/2025.

1. I wish I were a HS teacher or a college professor right now,

teaching history, government, or economics. Sharing information like the above video with students would make it worthwhile if it led to my termination.

All of those subjects you named should be required for their future!

3. 50+ years ago in HS, I had a history teacher

who meticulously taught both side of the Vietnam War. He was brilliant.

4. I have a new appreciation for my 9th grade history teacher, he taught us details about the Civil Rights Movement

When I saw the name Viola Liuzzo here on DU, I knew exactly who she was. 10th grade was a year of World History and 11th grade was a year of American history. I can't imagine a complete education without learning about our country's past, both the good and the tragic.

5. This is how they will deny the next election, by changing key terms of the rules to evade the legal counting of votes.
