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.

Savings accounts, pensions, working class 401ks, all of these have been decimated by Trump. He is building policy off the crackpot ideas of one disgraced economist, Peter Navarro, and we are all paying the price. Watch @therickwilson.bsky.social here: t.co/CfwAJVZWOt

Never forget that as Russia struck Ukrainians on their way to Church killing 34 & bombed a playground last weekend, @SteveWitkoff has been whitewashing Russia’s genocide, acting as an influence agent of Russia, and trying to line up business deals. Hope he and everyone supporting Russia rot in hell

Remember Fiona Hill? She’s now sounding the alarm again: “We’re definitely on a path toward full-on state repression. There’s no question about it. I’ve thought about this for an extraordinarily long time.” When Fiona speaks, we should all listen.

Tourism is a big, profitable sector of the economy involving multiple industries. When tourists visit and spend money, it reduces the trade deficit (or adds to a trade surplus). Any economic benefits to the US from tariffs will be swamped by losses in tourism alone, not to mention everything else.

Bailing out Silicon Valley Bank from the consequences of its own bad investment decisions because well-connected tech companies and rich VCs had stupidly put a disproportionately amount of their money there instead of diversifying was one of the Biden administration's worst decisions.

@warren.senate.gov: "State attorneys general have the same opportunity to investigate, dig in, get what the facts are. So for example, Letitia James, the NY attorney general, which has jurisdiction over the stock market and the trading that happens in NY, might decide she would take a look at this."

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.” 🤡

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 ..”
