The Trump administration pays El Salvador President Nayib Bukele's government $6 million to house prisoners it sends to CECOT. That’s the prison where Kilmar Abrego Garcia is currently being held. If the US controls the purse strings, then don’t pay El Salvador until Abrego Garcia comes home.

From 1999-2013, RFK sold his own brand of bottled water (in plastic bottles, and with a horrible carbon footprint) that contained TWO TIMES the upper limit of fluoride recommended for dental health, which is more than the safely allowable amount per US Public Health Service, and IS potentially toxic

It gets worse: The order found that the administration was covertly withholding millions in FEMA funds from blue states.

Great. Now I need to inject bleach into my eyes.

Good morning. Summary of my week: 1) people who have dedicated their life to conservation took the fork and have to be gone by next Friday. 😭 2) everyone is planning for cuts without knowing anything about what needs to be cut. 3) one program is being absorbed by other programs. Science is bad?

Literal LOL “.. 64% of US imports from Taiwan are now exempt from the 10% reciprocal tariff, 44% from Malaysia, and almost 30% from both Vietnam and Thailand. 10% to 12% of imports from India, Korea and Mexico will also now be exempt.” 🤡

Trump tried to bury this story on a Friday night, but it’s extremely important: He’s planning to take land on the border controlled by the Dept. of Interior and sign it over to Dept. of Defense so migrants “would have trespassed on a military installation,” resulting in harsher punishment.

This is so bad

UMich consumer expectations have now fallen to below the level where they were during the worst of the Biden inflation

If it weren't for the tariffs, this would be one of the biggest stories right now.

Hey MAGA I’m confused, so today does the market matter or no? Because yesterday it was a sure sign of trumps genius, but i haven’t heard todays verdict?

* 30-Year Mortgage Rate back up to 7.37%, the highest level in 2 months @barchart.com $XHB

The economy is cratering, the White House has fractured the country’s longest-standing global alliances, and foreign nations are marking the end of American dominance. And Donald Trump is focused on slandering his first-term enemies.

Marco Rubio must resign.

Maybe the reporters don't understand tariffs either.

This. Is. Not. Sus. Tain. Able.

I truly can’t blame anyone who leaves the country, and I know a few who left as early as 2017 and a few who left after November. He’s gotten a lot worse, and getting yanked around daily by a madman is utterly brutal, let alone when your child or you or someone you love is a target for their hate.

Egg prices in the U.S. have reached an all-time high, up 5.6% from last month

More than $3 million in damage done to the US Capitol because of these 1/6 insurrectionists and THEY are owed a refund?!

Wild that Rand Paul is out here making a clearer, more forceful case against Trump’s disastrous tariff policies than most Democrats eyeing a run for president.

In any normal administration, the Director of National Intelligence committing voter fraud would lead to an immediate resignation and criminal investigation.

pro tip: if your government claims to have no money for children's heathcare but will eagerly waste millions on a gaudy military parade to stroke the fragile ego of a broken-inside president, you just might live in a shithole country

NY Times actually used “lie” in a headline

This is not sustainable.

Let’s break this down: in summary- he’s shat his pants because US treasury bonds were being sold off like lemonade in a desert. He’s fucked up big time. And any other spin is bullshit.

It was the bonds and not any alleged Trump plan — he got spooked and rightly so www.washingtonpost.com/business/202...
