Trump and Elon broke up

Trump’s Bedminster Golf Club Flagged For 18 Health Violations In Latest Inspection—Earned Lowest Grade In County www.forbes.com/sites/zachev...

Amen amen! We can't let LLMs ruin em dashes for everyone — it's the perfect punctuation mark in so many contexts. Signed, Longtime em-dasher

Highly recommend watching the Suffolk Law School Commencement Speech by AG Keith Ellison. youtu.be/rute7hK35qQ

incredible scenes when you have a president who hasn't achieved object permanence

they are busy insider trading

The executive targets his opponents w/bogus investigations. His government disappears people w/out due process and vanishes them beyond reach. He usurps legislative power, controls public funds at will, & consolidates power. Loyalty is expected — or else. Authoritarianism isn’t coming. It’s here.

BREAKING: The House of Representatives just passed the SAVE Act, a bill that would make it much harder for millions of people to register to vote. We're calling on the Senate to reject this legislation.

MARRIED WOMEN - get a passport or renew a lapsed one as soon as possible. Your birth cert and marriage license and Real ID may not be enough to register to vote. Do you want to take that chance? Yes. It's a poll tax. The SAVE act passed the house, if it passes the Senate the felon will sign it.

Probably people with paranormal powers good at reading the mind of Trump and members of his inner circle. Or maybe just a lot of lucky people. I’m sure nobody leaked the announcement to anyone. That would be illegal.

Trump tells his followers to buy stock in the morning, minutes after the market opens, then announces he is pausing tariffs 4 hours later. Nothing to see here.

Let’s flood the switchboard

This isn't The Art of the Deal. It's insider trading with a bad comb-over. Step 1: Tank the Market, Scare the Non-Millionaires Step 2: Let the Aristocrats Feast Step 3: Flip, but say ‘Winning’ Step 4: Pretend None of This Ever Happened & Get Your Media Dregs To Do The Same Rinse, Enrich, Repeat.

Good morning. Today is the 80th day that the U.S. President is running a backdoor bribery scheme in which any CEO or foreign oligarch can send him money secretly through his crypto coin scam in exchange for favors. It's the biggest scandal in the history of the Presidency.

Members of Congress should never be allowed to trade stocks. Period.

You set the house on fire, watched it burn, and then lost your nerve and put it out. You now have a partially burned house. Great job.

This isn’t a trade war against China and the rest of the world. It’s an economic war against working class America.

The bond market shows capital flight from the United States, with people selling off US debt. It’s the opposite of what usually happens during economic turmoil, when people buy US debt because they think it’s the safest asset in the world. The US-led global economic system is dead. By suicide.

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

At this point, you can’t convince me they aren’t manipulating the market. As soon as the indexes started peaking today, the White House started talking about tariffs on China, and everything is in the red again.

I love paying TurboTax a few hundred bucks every year to figure out how much money I owe the government, which the government already knows, but won't tell me because TurboTax pays legislators to keep the government from telling me. 😻

This is high art

If this ain't a goddamn perfect eulogy, I don't know what is.

If a deranged president intentionally destroying the country's economy with a ludicrous obsession (and misunderstanding) of tariffs *isn't* justification for invoking the 25th Amendment, I honestly can't imagine any scenario that would be.

There’s always money in the banana stand.

“I hope Jesus saves her from the Buddhists.” What a great line! 🤣 #TheWhiteLotus

Facts

Ossoff: He’s so consumed by his efforts to secure revenge, crush his enemies, and conquer Greenland that he’s doing nothing for the people who elected him. His entire domestic agenda is tax breaks for the wealthy, rounding up immigrants, revenge, and centralizing as much power as he can..

We are now in the era of entirely fake news. When clear evidence of inappropriate behavior is poo-pooed and EXCUSED and small slights are turned into elephant-sized lies and conspiracies….you know the nation has lost its way. I mourn for our future.

Re-reading Gatsby and I can’t imagine why this line stood out: “They were careless people, Tom and Daisy—they smashed up things and creatures and then retreated back into their money or their vast carelessness or whatever it was that kept them together, and let other people clean up the mess...”
