Inject this shit straight into my veins.

KUDLOW: "There could be some short term, one-off price hikes. But at least for now, the economic signals are flashing slower growth and higher inflation. Not good." 😬😬😬

“I am a king and my will is law” isn’t a clever distraction from what he’s doing, it’s the central underlying justification for everything he’s doing.

I think there is a very big problem we have to grapple with which is that the median voter is extraordinarily deluded about the working of the world to the point of complete mental incapacity.

Vibe shift getting spicy. 🌶️ #CPI

I escaped poverty because I am a scientist. And I am a scientist because of the National Science Foundation. A 🧵:

The Democrats on the House Science Committee have set up a website to collect stories from fired federal employees, anonymously if desired democrats-science.house.gov/sciencefirings

people who think there's a grand negotiating strategy behind annexation threats

You can’t have peace talks without Ukraine involved.

the policy-meme gap: when you post a lot of MONEY FOR VETERANS, NOT REFUGEES memes and then fire disabled veterans from the Bronx VA

Poland as the 17th German state? Well the Third Reich is due for quite a wake up call if there are ever elections again! Ha ha ha! What the fuck are we doing here

OMG. The shit is hitting the fan tonight with Elon & his newly revealed latest baby momma. 🍿

the single most un-american and anti-constitutional statement ever uttered by an american president

The five years I worked in the government were some of the most important years in my life. Don't let this time steer you away — I still encourage everyone to consider working in or with your local and state government at least once. You will become a better you.

this seems like an excuse for failing to show basic professional solidarity out of cowardice

THE SUPREME (CULT ) !

“I’m disillusioned and tired. Send me to a country that will accept me since my country doesn’t” "I’m not going to grovel my country for the privilege of living in it, a privilege I thought I earned in blood."

Firing the enforcement ppl is a really big tell. CBO estimates that each dollar spent on enforcement (mostly wages) yields $6 to $9 in avoided taxes. Cutting enforcement is one of the biggest deficit-raising acts one can do. www.cbo.gov/publication/...

I’m quitting an accounting firm over perceived ethics issues I have and we have people wringing their hands over whether a prosecutor with way better exit options is fully culpable for their manifestly corrupt actions, truly law is a pitiful profession.

This is all a good reminder that, “no help, no votes until the criminal conduct stops” is neither a big ask nor a politically perilous one.

DOGE is gonna make the deficit higher

US foreign policy update

The best-aged thing the onion has ever written. Every day it rings truer and truer.

I have a question. What is the foreign policy of the U.S. government? www.wsj.com/world/europe...

Termination notices going out this afternoon to more than 300 employees of the National Cancer Institute. Access likely ends today. Four weeks paid leave and that’s it. Strong power move for Team Cancer.

I maxed out my credit card, emptied my savings account, and took out a loan to move from Alabama to Bethesda, MD. I don’t even qualify for unemployment since I’ve only worked at NIH for a month. I will be financially and medically devastated. Seeking suggestions for anywhere that’s hiring!!

quit it with this doomer shit. i'm here to win.

This also includes *veterans*, including, I am told, at least some fully qualified wildland firefighters with actual fire experience. Per a source with knowledge: “I want everyone to know that they are firing veterans, fully qualified and trying to serve their country again in civil service.”

The president is literally wielding the threat of imprisonment over the mayor of America's largest city to keep him in line. What happens if it's a governor or a Democratic leader in Congress next?

The No. 1 issue on my mind right now is Donald Trump trying to let my crook mayor get away with stealing public money in exchange for the mayor letting Trump's immigration goon squad trample on the city

Adams must be removed. The city cannot sustain being governed for nearly a year by a Mayor who is being coerced by Trump admin in order to escape charges. This corruption poses a real threat to the people of the city. He should have resigned a while ago, but will not. So it’s time for him to go.

Bondi must fire Bove, or resign immediately, or probably both.

this is a good example of the attitude that has led democrats down the road to disaster. it rests on the belief that public opinion cannot be shaped or mobilized or moved, only reacted to
