markets soar as investors realize that mommy didn't actually disappear, she was just hiding behind her hands

People never believe the cruelty inflicted outside a powerful nation's border will be their problem, but the boomerang will return.

"How far do you think we'll make it on one engine?" "All the way to the scene of the crash."

I woke up early with anxiety that I haven’t felt since the early days of the pandemic.

>bonds, stocks, oil, and crypto are all now tanking at the same time now

The most useful thing you can do to predict what’s going to happen in America is to listen to what the President wants to do and then assume he’s going to do it, but most people, especially in leadership, aren’t doing that because they would have to admit they were wrong when they decided not to.

One of two things is happening. They don’t understand what’s happening. They want it to happen. Pick your poison

Its so funny how Wall Street thinks he’s going to reverse course hopping on any story suggesting it my guy he’s going to keep slamming that tariff button which he thinks is a free money button if you don’t blink

the biggest journalistic failure in U.S. history was the total institutional unwillingness to clearly communicate to the public that this guy operates at a third grade reading level and genuinely has no idea how anything works

It’s not deporting, if you’re sending citizens to another country. It’s human trafficking. In this case, it’s also slave labor. You’re talking about an administration selling US citizens into slave labor.

These people deserve so much better 🤬

Please mainline fierce love, hope and beauty, right now. We need to stay strong and renew.

it hasn't even been a full three months. imagine an entire year of this. and multiple years after that. this is not sustainable.

The Supreme Court just handed Trump a 226-year-old weapon—greenlighting the Alien Enemies Act for mass deportations. No trial. No war. Just Trump deciding who gets tossed. This isn’t immigration policy. It’s authoritarian power in a courtroom robe.

Fuck yeah! Neil Young protesting ✊

A chilling point.

I’m really not sure how much this matters. We’ve seen ICE play shell games to avoid habeas petitions, as with Ozturk. So they just shuffle you around until your “reasonable time” is up, bundle you off to CECOT, and then whoops—no more jurisdiction!

This is it.

one of the most singularly terrible realizations in life is the day that you look around and go, wait, there’s no magical Adult Threshold that you cross where it all suddenly makes sense and you know how to budget and fold a fitted sheet there’s just you, forever, except with fewer working joints

Returning people wrongfully deported is important, and also charging and convicting those responsible. It’s not a political game, it’s a violation of Title 18, U.S.C., Sec 242. A felony with a maximum sentence of death when it causes the death of another.

The American social contract was downgraded to you can't afford a home or raise a family on a single income anymore, but you can get a big TV real cheap and Republicans' pitch right now is that actually you don't need the big cheap TV either.

MMR vaccine doesn’t just prevent measles, mumps, and rubella. It also prevents RFK Jr. from showing up at your child’s funeral to exploit your grief at your most vulnerable moment.

This is just fucking perfect.

No business is going to spend the money to build a factory here when the tariffs are just going to be removed in weeks/months/years.

Meaningless word salad.

So we’re 75 days into trumps second term, people are protesting everywhere. Markets have had two days of absolutely apocalyptic losses. There are grad students being disappeared and a man with an autism awareness tattoo was sent to a super scary prison in El Salvador. They’ve cut cancer research..

Holy shit. Here it comes.

The fact that everything around us is burning to the ground & some people still have no clue that they voted for the arsonist or are complicit in the arson is absolutely mind boggling. People are ok with it so long as the black woman isn’t their President 🤯. America, we have a problem!

Alienate our allies Crash the market Devalue the dollar Spike prices Dismantle the federal government Cause immigrants to live in fear Make others not want to come here If you made a blueprint for how to hurt 🇺🇸, it would look a lot like this Putin is enjoying the show

He's now demanding that Jerome Powell cut interest rates after imposing massive tariffs that will make inflation spike.

Almost half of the country’s health insurance now rests in the hands of a man who once sold miracle pills — with zero proof they worked — on daytime TV.

As someone with some, uh, experience in such things, I can promise you with 100% certainty that this was printed on a desktop printer, corners cut by hand (w/ scissors rather than nail clippers, which give a more rounded edge), and then shoved into an OfficeMax lamination machine. Amazing.

The always-bright Eric Trump gives away the game, acknowledging that the tariffs are just a form of extortion.

The 7 largest Dow Jones drops in American history: 1. Trump, 3/16/20 -2,997.10 2. Trump, 3/12/20 -2,352.60 3. Trump, 3/9/20 -2,013.76 4. Trump, 6/11/20 -1,861.82 5. Trump, 4/3/25 -1,679.39 6. Trump, 3/11/20 -1,464.94 7. Trump, 03/18/20 -1,338.46 Tired of winning yet?

Maybe voting for guy who was a complete disaster last time was a mistake?

You can’t properly serve communities that you look down on.

. Trashing the stock markets and the world's economies was their intention all along. The oligarchs will have a field day buying up all the distressed businesses and real estate, & get bailouts & tax breaks. For their plan to work, Elon had to first dismantle the government's regulatory agencies.
