ETF and Stock Put Option Volume hit an all-time high of 42 million

I am financially poorer this week than last week, all because of this #golfcheat. I am being constructive by calling and writing to my representatives and outside of groceries not buying anything. #StopBuying

Andy Kim: "If you want to know why there is so much chaos and confusion about what happened with regard to tariffs, I can say it's because of the absolute dysfunction of this national security council as demonstrated by what just happened with Laura Loomer."

Biggest gasbag and gaslighter of all time.

Imagine you’re Timothy Haugh, a decorated general, confirmed unanimously by the Senate to head the NSA. And while you’re traveling abroad, you find out the President just fired you on the advice of a 9/11 truther whose bigotry once got her banned by Uber.

Then I’m sure they won’t be asking for government subsidies to compensate for the impacts tariffs have on them.

The Economist: “Donald Trump has committed the most profound, harmful, and unnecessary economic error in the modern era. Almost everything he said—on history, economics and the technicalities of trade—was utterly deluded”

We need to dispel some rumors. There is ZERO fentanyl trafficking on both of our HIMI islands. In fact, while our Gentoo penguins can travel hundreds of miles to bring partners their favorite pebble, they are incapable and unwilling of carrying even an ounce of illicit drugs.

Trump is set to leave the White House early today to go to his Florida golf club after setting the economy on fire with his devastating tariff announcement.

BREAKING: Senators Chuck Grassley (R) and Maria Cantwell (D) introduced a bipartisan bill to reassert Congress’s authority over tariffs. It requires the president to notify Congress within 48 hours of imposing new tariffs, which would expire unless Congress approves them within 60 days.

There are no tariffs being put on Russia. Hmmm

This is a United States Senator MACK: I was laid off from HHS and now people aren’t getting social services, especially people with disabilities BANKS: You probably deserved it MACK: Why did I deserve it? BANKS: Because you look like a clown

They bought votes and still lost.

Cory Booker has held the Senate floor for 17 hours and 21 minutes. The record of 24 hours and 18 minutes is held by segregationist Strom Thurmond, who spent that time protesting the Civil Rights Act of 1957. I am pretty sure Booker would not mind changing that history.

Brutal story for Mike Lawler in #NY17. During his 2024 re-election campaign, Lawler told his constituents that he 'secured' $33M in funding for projects. He lied. He did not 'secure' anything. In fact, in the end, he actually voted *against* what he promised. www.lohud.com/story/news/i...

Two years after law required the display of a plaque at Capitol to honor police who responded to Jan 6 attack…. The plaque has yet to be hung

If she was that confident, she wouldn’t object to due process.

House GOP puts judges on ‘Wanted’ posters. Elon Musk pays voters to attend his WI rally. Trump floats a 3rd term. The world realigns on trade—without the U.S. And much more. Catch up on a wild day in politics:

For the Tokyo Fail Club, candid talks about ventures gone wrong, bankruptcy and depression are the order of the day as speakers tout a message of persistence in the face of adversity.

I'm going to post this video every day so we never forget what Trump did.

1. The Social Security Administration and DOGE are GASLIGHTING AMERICANS. They are telling millions of beneficiaries that reports they were closing SSA field offices were fake news. Actually, these closures were PUBLICLY ANNOUNCED and LEASES WERE CANCELED. 🧵

There must be a reason #Trump is always seated behind the desk in the #WhiteHouse. Are his staff afraid he will fall over?

The monthly % chnge in the 3-month moving avge of my US leading index (Feb latest), versus the S&P500. We haven't got a lot of new data since the inauguration. Until there are more data, we can't assume there will be a recession. But *I* think there will be unless Trump changes course. #Econsky
