Powell: The level of tariff increases announced so far is significantly larger than anticipated, and the same is likely to be true of the economic effects which will include higher inflation and slower growth.

I guess the markets didn’t like to hear the Fed Chair tell the truth about where the economy is heading under Trump.

Vance is basically Catturd with a government title, except Catturd doesn’t spend as much time on X.

After the attack on Shapiro’s residence, I feel like it’s important to remind people how easy it is for people to become irrevocably radicalized online. Right wing media (both “new” and legacy) is using the same tactics we see groups like Al-Qaeda use to recruit.

There’s a video circulating on social media that Trump raised the minimum wage to $25 an hour. 1. That’s a lie 2. Trump can’t do that 3. Trump wouldn’t do that even if could 4. Trump actually just cut contractor minimum wage.

Tank the market with tariffs so rich people can buy low then “pause” the tariffs and all those people make vast sums of money?

Yep. I’m hopeful that he’ll learn something from the market rebounding when he paused tariffs, but the fact is that he’ll probably only learn how easy it is to manipulate the market.

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.

Robert Wolf on Fox News: "This big beautiful economy that actually was rolling pretty good with jobs and inflation coming down feels more like the Game of Thrones red wedding. I mean, it's not going well."

Booker: "I confess that I have been imperfect. I confess that I've been inadequate to the moment. I've confess that the Democratic Party has made terrible mistakes that gave a lane to this demagogue. I confess we all must look in the mirror and say 'we will do better.'"

Trump surrenders on autos after less than 2 days after the market tanked and he heard from auto CEOs and Republicans in Congress. He’s a feckless dipshit.

You all know I’m no fan of Bolton, but this move by Trump is just unnecessary cruelty for the sake of cruelty.

For the January 6 people who were convicted of felonies, their conviction made them ineligible to own firearms. Trump just restored that right. He has his shadow army, and now they know the drill

GOP extremists want House Democrats to raise the debt ceiling so that House Republicans can lower the amount of your Social Security check. Hard pass.

Trump’s takeaway from winning the presidency is that it allows him to charge more for licensing his name to people who sell cheap crap

How many more billionaires will join Trump's cabinet? Should the presidential pardon be reformed? Can America's broken healthcare system be fixed? And what could Biden and Senate Democrats still do before the lame-duck clock runs out? We discuss all this and more on the Saturday Coffee Klatch.

The Senate hates Matt Gaetz. This is going to be an early check on whether or not they’ll be a realistic check on Trump’s power or if they’ll just roll over and do what he wants. But the fact that a coked up pedo was even nominated for AG is insane.
