Probably doesn't want to spook the market about the coming Second Great Depression. Or will we refer to it as GDII (Great Depression Two)? www.cnbc.com/2025/02/22/w...

There are a very small number of things that the Trump administration is doing that I agree with, this is one of them: www.cnbc.com/2025/02/18/t... I think it's important to point that out, that I'm not knee-jerk slamming every and any action the administration takes.

I'm gonna keep reposting examples of people not taking shit because it's important for us to see that you can, simply, reject the shit. Say "Uh... no no no, we will not be tolerating that."

Any Democrat that attends the State of the Union and doesn't walk out mid-speech in protest needs to get primaried.

Trump's comments about President Zelensky are shameful and show his fragility as a leader. Russia started this war, but Trump is willing to sell off Ukraine's freedom to stay on Putin's good side. This isn't "America First". It's Russia First. www.axios.com/2025/02/19/t...

Layer that on top of the uncertainty from just the absolute chaos of this administration, slowdown from tariffs, the popping of the AI bubble, and the increasingly sclerotic US economy caused by excessive market concentration and I believe you have the makings of a Great Depression 2.0.

This would also give Democrats something concrete to throw in the media's face:. "How dare you do an interview with the "Secretary of Blah" without also interviewing the "Shadow Secretary of Blah" at the same time.

This would drive the GOP nuts, and the media would love it as it simplifies their life because they'll know who exactly to contact to write their he said/she said stories.

Dickerson says the executive order that Trump issued ... was actually something he would have liked to see in Obama’s founding charter for the agency. He particularly liked the paragraph that forced agencies to give USDS teams access to systems and records.

The two things to learn from this photo are: 1. I apparently drag my left heel more than my right. 2. I need to throw away shoes more frequently than I do.

Google addresses the controversy behind removing Black History Month, Pride and other cultural events from calendar. The company made the decision in mid-2024 because tracking cultural events globally was not scalable so they now only show public holidays. It’s not election related.

If we've learned anything from Trump's first three weeks in office is that the Democratic party needs to be burned to the ground and something new needs to be built from the bottom up to replace it.

As you listen to Dems complain they can't do anything when the GOP controls the House, Senate, and White House, please remember what they didn't do when they were in the same position.
