Do not obey

BREAKING: The country of Norway just entered a bill to give transgender Americans asylum in the country of Norway… LGBTQ+ STRONG! 🌈✨

If you're a billionaire, then you'll barely notice a few thousand dollars a year in higher prices at the store from these Trump tariffs - plus you can count on him to get you another big tax break for the wealthy. But for everyone else, this is a big deal, and a bad one.

Look, as long as this dangerous idiot is in the White House, the rest of the world should just ignore America and certainly not even think about investing in America. If I’m the rest of the world, I’m taking a four year break from America.

Where is America?

Fook you, if you did not vote in the 2024 General Election.

I’m old enough to remember when I took out a full-page ad in the New York Times last fall to publish a letter signed by 225 mental-health professionals saying that Trump’s severe personality disorders made him destructive and dangerous.

That's the language of a doomsday cult leader

All I’m saying is that President Harris wouldn’t have us looking at the futures market on a Sunday night.

Who benefits from an economic crisis? Trump does. He declares an economic emergency—then manufactures one—which allows him to expand his power. Under the National Emergencies Act (NEA), the president can unlock more than 120 special statutory powers. No wonder he was just out golfing—crisis pays.

Respectfully my friend, it’s NOT just the fault of one man. It’s the fault of an entire political party that bowed like cowards to this one man. And it’s the fault of way too many of his voters who allowed him to lie to them every single day for the past 10yrs. They ALL own this.

We dream of having Pinky in charge!!!

One man just wiped out $10 trillion in wealth, is destroying centuries-old legal protections, and seems determined to unravel humanity’s greatest public health achievement. In 3 months. I don’t know how we get out of this. But if we do, one person can never have that kind of power again.

Remember when we were told the stock market would crash, unemployment and inflation would rise, our allies wouldn’t be taking us seriously anymore, the war in Ukraine would still be going, and the ceasefire in Israel would collapse if Kamala Harris became president? Good thing we avoided that.

If you’re a North Carolinian, you can check whether your name or the names of anyone you know is on the list of the 65K voters whose votes may be tossed. You could have an opportunity to fix it if so. thegriffinlist.com

Just a legal historian here reminding everyone that “high crimes and misdemeanors” do not need to be felonies. They can include political abuses and stupidity, like, hypothetically, destroying the economy and wiping out people’s savings in 3 days.

How many US citizens watched James Bond cheering for the evil Billionaire villain to win?

"We cannot overstate what has just happened. It took just 71 days for Donald Trump to wreck the American economy, mortally wound NATO, and destroy the American-led world order" from @jvl.bsky.social www.thebulwark.com/p/the-americ...

Wow who could’ve guessed that this would happen It’s almost as if USAID was a pillar of American soft power and influence in the world It’s almost as if it was entirely predictable that America’s adversaries would work to fill the void left by USAID’s destruction
