would love to see a volume/time graph on these for the past week

God, who is all-powerful and all-knowing, invented prayers just because He likes to hear me beg.

The truth behind Spinderella

WAKE THE FUCK UP!!!

Shill baby shill- Oil production is decreasing under trump. That’s why the administration is delaying the publication of the February numbers.

The stock portfolios of more than two dozen members of Congress outperformed the market in 2024. This isn't due to luck or skill. Lawmakers can use privileged information to trade stocks while they’re supposed to be working for you. Make no mistake, it’s legalized corruption.

Seriously? Because we were told they were going to deport violent criminals.

FYI

Today’s best meme. Enjoy

Don’t overthink this. He’s asking for bribes.

We found the government “waste, fraud, and abuse”.

He just testified all morning about the reasons why the tariff policy was going to make America great. Then he checked his phone and realized everything he just said was canceled on Truth Social.

I strongly doubt the rest of the planet's 7 billion citizens are going to tolerate allowing one insane grandpa to do this to all of them for much longer.

Rep. Steven Horsford to Greer: "So the trade representative hasn't spoken to the POTUS about a global reordering of trade, but yet he announced it on a tweet? WTF! Who is in charge? It looks like your boss just pulled the rug out from under you. There is no strategy ... is this market manipulation?"

Tank the market with tariffs so rich people can buy low then “pause” the tariffs and all those people make vast sums of money?

Nice try.

Insider trading much? Didn’t Martha Stewart go to prison for that? Just curious 🤔 Good morning all!

📌NOTE: Say what you want about this wretched, America-attacking, burnt-orange asshole (please), but it's your friends and family who still support him who are to blame ...

In 1930, 6 months after the Smoot-Hawley tariffs were enacted by President Hoover, world trade decreased by SIXTY PERCENT (60%). Because of policies like the Smoot-Hawley tariffs contributing to the Great Depression in the 1930's, Hoover is considered one of our WORST president's. Sound familiar?

The U.S. has slapped a tariff on Australia despite the fact that it’s one of the few countries on earth with which we have an actual trade *surplus* www.wsj.com/livecoverage...

Economy is booming like a Trump Casino 👊🇺🇸🔥

If Trump can claim a "national emergency" to disappear legal residents without due process, what’s to stop him from doing the same to U.S. citizens who oppose him? No one is safe — not even people legally in the country, possibly not even American citizens. Fascism is here.

The French would like to thank the UK for funding to them. 2020 - 2024: EDF owned by the French state made £91bn operating profit in the UK, subsidises French households/industry. UK govts oppose public ownership but happy to let foreign govts own UK infrastructure, export billions of profits.

We wouldn’t be here if SCOTUS had allowed the January 6th trial to go forward as scheduled.

Yeah, your retirement savings might have evaporated, but did you know that Joe Biden wore maximum stability sneakers with a cushioned footbed.

This is fun from @gilduran.com but also pretty dark www.thenerdreich.com/curtis-yarvi...

It’s a recalibration of economic control. Oligarchs don’t live paycheck to paycheck. They have the capital to buy market dips and recoup faster, acquiring more assets at fire sale prices along the way. When the dust finally settles, they will own more. The rest of us will own less. A lot less.

It’s time for Congress to reign in the Mad King. These tariffs haven’t even hit for real and the world is off the rails. Politically, it’s helpful to Dems, but this is why I’m not a good politician b/c I care too deeply about the harm on all people, even on those that hate my very existence.

My law firm is currently litigating 50 voting and election cases in 21 states. I expect new cases will be filed this week. States with the most cases: AZ, GA, NC, NV, FL, LA, PA.

What ever are they hoping to accomplish?!

Booker: "What this president is doing is violating our constitutional principles, violating the fundamental rights of people in order to punish them to carry out his own retribution plan ... Donald Trump is saying, 'ask not what your country can do for you. Ask what you can do for Donald Trump.'"
