Not a good day for certain stocks. Tesla down 17% Lululemn down 17% Docusign down 16%

I think we’re making some progress now on this therapy session. Yes, this is real.

Did Trump and Vance say thank you to Musk for winning the election for them?

Throuples never work out.

Did they even say “Thank you?” 🤡 #OligarchEra

Wait, George Santos still isn't in prison and won't be until July? He pled guilty in August 2024 and was sentenced in April of 2025!

The Supreme Court felt that the super-liberal (sarcasm font) Oklahoma Supreme Court just barely had the right to decide that the State of Oklahoma shouldn't basically help send kids to religious schools.

My second book - "The Lives and Deaths of Roger Putnam" - is now available both on Kindle and in paperback on Amazon. www.amazon.com/dp/B0F91XTKP4 All proceeds I receive from book sales will go to my granddaughter's 529 plan. She has earned it through her promotional efforts (see below).

Most Timberwolves playoff victories by a Timberwolves player? Anthony Edwards - 18 wins.

The Secretary of Agriculture announced yesterday that the Admin is about to ask Congress for hundreds of billions to bail out farmers because of Trump’s tariffs.

You can’t say criminals don’t deserve due process when due process is the thing that decides if they're criminals. Otherwise you're just kidnapping people you don't like.

Happy Easter from my family to yours.

It makes sense that someone had to file a case for people who "might" be arrested by the storm troopers. I mean, what person who has a bag tossed over his or her head and flown to El Salvador 3 hours later is going to have a chance to hire a lawyer and seek judicial review of his case?

The Trump White House, two days ago.

Trump - tariff quitter.

So bizarre that the only truth teller in the Republican Party this week has been Rand Paul.

So - am I no longer Liberated?

Quote from Fundstrat Market Strategy & Sector Research…

The President has chosen to intentionally crash the U.S. economy and financial system by doing things which have been ridiculed in every intro macroeconomics class for the past 80+ years. Those with the power to stop him refuse to do so because they hate minorities.

HAVE THE PENGUINS CAPITULATED YET

it would sound insane to tell someone that the president tanked the economy, fired a bunch of his national security staff because a woman who once chained herself to twitter he told him to, and then fucked off to florida for a saudi sports washing tournament at his golf club but here we are

My three-yea-old was watching CNBC when she turned to me gravely and asked "Daddy, why does the nice orange man want to put tariffs on the penguins?" And when I told her "Because penguins are globalist shitlibs who steal American manufacturing jobs with unfair trade practices," she started crying.

Congrats, Elon, you lost by double digits Candidate Votes Pct. Winner Susan Crawford 1,301,128 votes 55.0% Loser Brad Schimel 1,063,244 45.0%

Trump Surrogates(TS): "Tariffs will raise huge $$$ so we can cut income taxes." Trump- "We'll scare countries & won't need tariffs." TS: "So no money?" T- "Nope, just 100% U.S. manufacturing." TS- "And no tax cuts?" T- "Yes, tax cuts for billionaires, and they'll be paid for by my tariffs!"

the Twins are undefeated on days when Elon Musk fails to buy a Wisconsin Supreme Court election

That was fast! Have some extra cheese on us, Wisconsin 💪🏽 🧀

The Wisconsin Supreme Court was not for sale.

Much of mainstream media has caved to Trump. X is pretty much state-run. Big law firms have bent the knee. His entire cabinet lies for him without hesitation. Thank you @jeffreygoldberg.bsky.social for your courage and commitment to the truth, during a time when we need it the most.

The Trump mantra - "Just lie."

Elon Musk

Vikings taking a gamble.

Jaden McDaniels' monthly splits: 8-3-2 10-4-2 9-6-1 12-6-1.5 18-8-3 17-6-4 It's like the Timberwolves added a new (and really good) player by trade on Feb. 1.
