I fear a coming wave of antisemitism. Israel, Kushner, Witkoff (perhaps Miller) can all be portrayed by the neo-Nazi movement "the Jews manipulated Trump into this." Especially if this war goes terribly wrong.

My "hot take" on the tariff decision is that Justice Alito would never stay silent amid a full-on SCOTUS food fight (which the many squabbling concurrences & dissents reflect), unless he was busy cooking up something else nefarious & genuinely awful in which he is writing for the majority. Sorry.
