Let’s fucking go!

“This is yet another example of a DOGE ‘report’ misunderstanding this data at best, blatantly mischaracterizing this data at worst.” www.nytimes.com/2025/04/12/u...

Love the Daily Show team!

When they loudly scream the quiet part in market manipulations.

the basic problem facing american democracy is that one party has decided it wants a king and will hand over as much authority as is necessary to make that happen

Senator Murphy on the Trump grift and likely massive insider trading scandal that just took place

Sen. Adam Schiff (D-CA): "I'm writing to the White House to demand who knew in advance that the President was going to, once again, flip flop on tariffs. And are people cashing in? There is just all too much opportunity for people in the White House and the administration to be insider trading"

Spoiler: It is absolutely market manipulation

No Doubt In My Mind! Criminal Behavior Continues…

Imagine that. Is there any doubt in anyone’s mind they were tipped off? They are laughing at us all. www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

That’s because there weren’t any.

Every f'ing time

Are you a woman who changed your name when you got married? Congress is considering a bill that could make it much harder for you to vote. Call your rep—this is not a drill. indivisible.org/resource/cal...

Hey everyone Pete Hegseth, Tulsi Gabbard, Mike Waltz, Marco Rubio and JD Vance endangered our service members by discussing war plans on an illegal Signal chat that was so insecure that a reporter from the Atlantic read the whole thing as it happened. They all need to resign. #SignalGate

ELECTION RESULT: A team of city council members in Rolla, Missouri, have been pushing anti-LGTB policies, including a ban on drag shows and book censorship. Voters just ousted all three of these city councilors who were running for reelection, backing candidates backed by a local LGBT group.

Sad world

Fox News is basically telling everyone to "live, laugh, love" through the stock market free fall

Netanyahu loves Trump's plan to force 2 million people from Gaza & turn it into a billionaires’ Riviera. He calls it "voluntary migration.” It's not voluntary if you bomb & starve those who stay. It’s ethnic cleansing. It's a war crime. No more military aid to Netanyahu.

Biggest commitment to a 3 second joke I've ever seen

The America we could look up to is no more...

NEW: China is furious at JD Vance following the VP's crude remarks about "Chinese peasants." China's Ministry of Foreign Affairs calls Vance's comments "ignorant and impolite." Vance has once again made a massive blunder on the international stage.

I think it’s very funny that one of the go-to defenses for Trump’s very stupid version of mercantilism is “he’s had these views for forty years.” Oh well, then we absolutely *gotta* let him wreck the global economy if he’s believed this nonsense for long enough.

if you want to bring back the prosperity* and security of mid-century american life then you need high rates of unionization, a generous social insurance state, and widespread, freely available education. www.msnbc.com/opinion/msnb...

This week's assignment: Contact your member of Congress and urge them to vote NO on the SAVE Act!!!! Phone number for the U.S. Capitol switchboard is (202) 224-3121

A tragedy that should never be repeated, instead here we are.

Be safe everyone...living in fear is the new norm now.

Is this game over?

Last night I wrote about Abrego Garcia’s case. Today, SCOTUS confirmed it’s true. Even though their stay is just temporary, he remains in cruel & unusual conditions in a foreign prison with no recourse. It could happen to any of us. joycevance.substack.com/p/the-week-a...

Jon Stewart on Trump's Botched Tariff Rollout & The Stock Market's Meltdown youtu.be/zBflZLStKQg

The irony of Elon accusing everyone under the sun of profiting from some nebulous slush fund is that he himself is the recipient of $38 billion in government handouts.

NEW: The Supreme Court took 6 months to decide immunity, but just 6 days to effectively strip the rest of us of due process. My latest: www.muellershewrote.com/p/the-corrup...

This was one of the scary ones...

Not sure tariffs are the reason we can't sell rice to Asia...
