JPMorgan now forecasting a 60% chance of US recession this year.

The @financialtimes.com is not mincing words "America’s astonishing act of self-harm" on.ft.com/3YjtOLV

NEW: The US stock market opens and is CRATERING. The Dow down over 1000 pts in the first few minutes. Red everywhere. Trillions wiped from value. #KeepWinning #Tariffs

Britain's wrongest man rides again.

Bruce MacKinnon, the editorial cartoonist at the Halifax Chronicle-Herald, drew this last November. No newspaper would print it. It now deserves an outing.

We take tariffs on our beautiful Heard Island very seriously. We will be consulting all mammals and flightless birds and will make an announcement in the near future detailing our response. #heardisland #tariff #mcdonaldisland #trumptariff

Our open letter response to the #USCommerceDept and #POTUS

The stupidity in Trump’s new tariffs is apparently limitless. He has introduced a 10% tariff on the British Indian Ocean Territory. The only inhabited island there is Diego Garcia, home to US service personnel. TRUMP HAS PUT A TARIFF ON A US MILITARY BASE 🤡

A new video released by Musk’s PAC could serve as further evidence that its massive cash giveaways constitute illegal vote buying. In the clip, a Wisconsin woman who won a $1 million prize explicitly links her winnings to following Musk’s instructions to vote.

International tourism is worth $200 billion every year to the US economy. Sorry, *was.

IT GETS WORSE Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth brought his wife, a former Fox News producer, to two meetings with foreign military counterparts where sensitive information was discussed, according to multiple people who were present or had knowledge of the discussions. New via @wsj.com:

Sewage was spilt in one village in Devon 366 times in 2024, as the county was home to five of the worst 10 pollution blackspots in England ➡️ Read more: trib.al/G3H3ufd

American war planning usually takes place in highly secure facilities. But the Trump administration planned its strikes on the Houthis using a group chat—and accidentally included The Atlantic’s editor in chief, Jeffrey Goldberg. theatln.tc/IuULQFiY
