Literal LOL “.. 64% of US imports from Taiwan are now exempt from the 10% reciprocal tariff, 44% from Malaysia, and almost 30% from both Vietnam and Thailand. 10% to 12% of imports from India, Korea and Mexico will also now be exempt.” 🤡

If you can't prove your citizenship well enough to to vote... ...then you can't prove your citizenship well enough to keep from being deported to a South American prison.

The agency forecasts weather, manages fisheries, and researches the world's oceans, atmosphere, and climate. The proposed budget cuts would slash the climate work entirely.

Casar: At the end of the day, they believe you pay taxes to make them and their friends richer. They believe you should work longer hours for less pay—again, to make them and their friends richer. And maybe they can even squeeze in a little insider stock trading on the side.

The Byrds release “Mr. Tambourine Man” today in 1965. “If you’re someone who grew up in the suburbs of Baltimore, the song is like a little telegraph, said David Byrne. “Hearing that, I realised: I have to get out of here because .. there’s a whole world out there that I don’t know anything about.”

Lutnick: “We’ll make phones in 🇺🇸” Days later: *Trump exempts phones*

Sure. Tell Grandma to just head on over to X to sign up for her benefits.

Dr Peter Marks, "Vaccines have been studied very extensively for being potentially associated with autism" "That theory has been debunked" "One study in Denmark, over 600,000 children. It shows that if anything, children had a lower rate of autism than unvaccinated children"

I’ve never seen a tweet that more effectively communicates how we got to this current situation

I swear, the longer you look at this, the worse it gets…

Tax cuts account for 38% of the national debt today, while recession responses and spending increases each caused 29%. And now the Republicans want to pass $5.3T more tax cuts. We can’t keep this up. My @morningjoe-msnbc.bsky.social

And here’s why we should all oppose and be concerned about the SAVE Act (and yes, I know that this may not be timely for all of you but maybe it is new for some too): apnews.com/article/cong...

WATCH— @jessicatarlov.bsky.social : “Why are you making fun of smart people that calculate things?” Jessica points out Trump is making it seem like he paused all the tariffs but the Yale budget lab says those remaining will cost each 🇺🇸 household $4400, the highest tariff rate since 1909.

Number of people who go bankrupt every year because of medical bills or illness-related work loss: Australia 0 Canada 0 Denmark 0 Finland 0 France 0 Germany 0 Iceland 0 Ireland 0 Italy 0 Japan 0 Netherlands 0 Norway 0 Portugal 0 Spain 0 Sweden 0 UK 0 United States 530,000 There’s a lesson there.

JPMORGAN: To argue that today’s 145% China tariff clarification “is somehow less of a shock as a result is very misguided .. The sudden stop of roughly $450bn in US imports and the resulting disruption to US supply chains would be a significant blow .. We maintain our call for a US recession ..”

Just an astonishingly stupid person.

Kennedy says HHS "launched a massive testing and research effort," involving "hundreds of scientists from around the world." "By September, we will know what has caused the autism epidemic, and we'll be we'll be able to eliminate those exposures." Science isn't known for this kind of certainty.

This government is not legitimate.

And wait until we see, on the other side of the ledger, higher borrowing costs (from decreased demand for Treasury securities) and decreased revenues (from laxer tax enforcement if not also tax cuts).

So, yes, the market meltdown was scary, but what we are left with is even scarier: A world dangling at the whim of a capricious, economically illiterate, megalomaniac. open.substack.com/pub/charlies...

Forcing people to pay $130 for a passport in order to vote is just a Jim Crow poll tax by another name. It is blatantly unconstitutional.

Due process is foundational—arguably the defining difference between a constitutional republic and authoritarian rule. If people are being deported without it, that’s not a policy dispute—it's a direct violation of the Constitution.

RFK jr doesn't give AF about people with autism. He's using autism to manipulate US policy in a profoundly dangerous and insane ego-flex in an effort to eliminate vaccines. He is full of sadistic intent and he knows nothing about science. RFK jr is trying to cull people on a mass-scale.

Kurt Vonnegut man

The EPA ordered the virtual elimination of a 15-year-old federal program that requires thousands of power plants, oil refineries, cement factories and other large industrial facilities to publicly report their greenhouse gas emissions, according to two people briefed on the decision.

Science does not work like this. The only way you can set a timeline is if you have rigged the results in advance.

We are witnessing an unprecedented and dangerous unraveling of ethics rules and norms in an effort to profit off the presidency. We need meaningful guardrails to ensure the White House is never for sale.

This is how Kaganovich talked about Stalin.

Here’s where we’re headed next: 1. Record number of S&P 500 companies pull full-year earnings guidance. 2. “Jay Powell is artificially costing us trillions of dollars with high interest rates, he must be fired.” 3. “Beautiful phone call with my friend President Xi, we’re making a deal.”

The most corrupt administration in American history wants you to look the other way from this. We can't. We need answers.

The dollar crashing is great news for all of us Brits who've found the US unaffordable since Brexit, except when we try to visit we're going to be turned away at the border because we liked a tweet saying slavery was bad

If you want to win a trade war, you gotta have something to trade that other side wants. And we're in a trade war with the very people who make all the things WE want. You're not going to win that.

Elon Musk can't be trusted with rockets, drugs, video games, social media, or even his own children. He damn sure can't be trusted with your data.

Perspective changes everything. [Ars Mathermatica]
