ADP’s report showed that private payrolls ticked up by just 37,000 in May, far below the Dow Jones forecast for 110,000... And the 'winning' continues.

Hegseth, instructed by TACO Donald, has taken another swipe at the LGBTQ+ community. He waited until the start of Pride month to order the USS Harvey Milk to change its name. No idea what the new name will be - but certainly something with Nazi or Fascist overtones.

TACO Trump has had a team on the ground in Poland canvassing for the far right Presidential candidate. I'm hoping the other one wins, but whichever way it does, WTF? If the Mexican president had sent a team here to canvass for Harris, what would the GOP have said about THAT?

Sad but true: the world still relies on oil and gas from Russia. A lot of purchases are hidden, but NATO countries and especially Europe buy more Russian oil and gas than they spend on aid to Ukraine. The result? Russia is able to continue buying arms to kill Ukrainians. Sanctions are not working.

Trump has to ban mifepristone because the religious right are demanding it. But he promised not to in the campaign, so a fake report claiming the risks are hundreds of times higher than any of the many real research papers show is now with RFK. He will recommend banning it, and Trump will agree...

Trump from birth has always been obeyed by lackies so cannot comprehend why Putin doesn't do as he is told and end the war. Turns out the real world just intruded on his delusion. And now Putin - a mastermind compared to our child-like president - strokes his ego to avoid consequences.

In another - and possibly fatal - blow to our democracy, the GOP in the Senate declared that the filibuster is only required when they say it is. Overruling both the parliamentarian and the GAO, they promise this isn't setting a precedent, and they're only doing so in this one instance...

This is why it is important to STOP giving money to the DNC. The DNC is no better than the RNC; they both work to protect their rich entitled membership. Time and again we see them fight off any concepts of reform. Yet they are entirely useless as an opposition to Trump. We need a new party.

Trump gets palatial "Airforce One" replacement as gift from Qatar. Fitted out with high end finishings - mostly likely everything is gilded. He will use it until he leaves office, then it goes to his Presidential Library - wonder who'll get to use it then? Gifts are property of US, not President...

Trump wants to eliminate FEMA, because people should learn to take care of themselves. Yesterday the head of FEMA testified that it was a necessary agency for the country. Today he was frog-marched out of the building. Another good day for the Dictator-in-Chief.

Trump to spend $92 million on a military parade to honor his birthday on June 14. He's wanted one ever since he saw similar parades in North Korea, China and Russia. No word on who will pay for the damage to roads and infrastructure - that's what stopped him last time.

It turns out you CAN have it both ways - if you exist in Trump-world. This week he announced that illegal entry has fallen by 99% since he took office; the GOP announced $45 billion in funding to detain 100,000 extra illegal migrants. Sounds to me like all those nice new facilities will be empty...

Another two-year-old tantrum from Trump. If you don't say the right thing, he'll revoke anything he can. In this case, Global Entry - a program individuals have to pay for; it's not a perk of office. But hey, who cares, right?

To brown-nose Trump, Kier Starmer's government is trying to force organizers to move the UK Open to Trump's golf course. Yet more appeasement of the bully. Maybe he's right, as he said yesterday "I run the world".

Paramount crumbles to the bully Trump. 60 minutes reveals that they are now being forced to follow new rules, and no doubt they will be prevented from covering issues that upset Trump. But at least Paramount's merge will go through and they won't be sued... Is this the price of 'freedom'?

If the Fed Chair won't drop interest rates, and you can't fire him, the best thing to do is say you WILL find a way to fire him. The markets tank, and you create the situation where in order to steady the market, the FED HAS to cut rates. It's a bully's ploy to get what he wants.

And now the White House has gone full-on QANON conspiracy. They havea page full of nonsense about the origins of COVID. Trump hates Fauci, especially hates that he can't jail him because Biden gave him a pardon. Remember injecting bleach and shining a light up your butt? That was Trump's solution.

How long will republicans say "it's only THIS...". Right before our eyes, democracy is dying. Restrictions on the media, on education, on free speech; fear of deportation or imprisonment without trial. Are they going to ignore ALL this to "stick it to the libs"? Yes, they are.

Deporting people without due process, and defying SCOTUS orders to bring them back - Trump is committing High Crimes, with no challenge from Congress. It's a shame that the Constitution didn't provide a way to deal with a president that does that...
