The naughty side of me wants to set up an account called “hungry leopard” or something, on every major platform and just peruse for people suffering the consequences of their own actions and comment, “mmm, tasty” but also I don’t want to tempt fate.

After Trump destroyed the global monetary system, I lost my six figure job, and now I’m struggling to learn Mandarin so I can earn minimum wage making iPhones. But at least I don’t have to hear people give their pronouns anymore.

Total federal spending is up +8% in 2025 year-to-date on April 9 over 2024. The illusion that the fed govt is tightening its belt is contradicted by its own real-time expenditure data. Admin spectacularly hammering some things but raising spending elsewhere. Was -7% just after Inauguration Day.

So the budget deficit for the first half of 2025 is $1.3 trillion, we’ve decimated the federal workforce in the name of saving $, and all DOGE is “MAYBE” gonna cut in all of 2026 is $150 Billion? Talk to me about spending cuts once we #taxtherich. Deficits could be over next year.

This past week, the Chinese learned 1) exactly where Trump's pain points are; 2) how much to squeeze them before he flinches; and 3) how little America's partners and allies want to help this president. Highly useful information.

Donold says he will rename the “Gulf of Mexico” the “Gulf of America.” Still no plans for eggs or gas.

If things go the way they look to, there will be a time down the road when America looks back @ the global leadership that it abdicated & bemoans all the benefits it afforded its citizens globally. There are drawbacks to that leadership, surely. But I’m sure they are far outweighed by the benefits.

The amount of dudes I’ve talked to in the last 24 hours who “still need to shop for my wife…” Thank you for making my modest efforts look so much better than they are. But also, come on.

Great (and simple) thread on spotting fake stories posted on social media. If we all did a tiny bit of fact-checking before we forward stuff on, we could put a dent in misinformation.
