Trump to Fox: "You know, in the old days -- about 1870 to 1913 -- the tariffs were the only form of money." 🥴

Now is for the moment for another New Deal, but one that includes constitutional reforms. Dems should commit to proportional representation so we can a multi-party system that can win back voters' trust.

Reminders: "Concentration camps" aren't the same as "extermination camps." Both were/are horrific. Most Nazi camps were *outside Germany*, away from the eyes of German citizens. Those trains? Were to, uh, deport the category of people whose lives were deemed unimportant. Never again is now.

Yesterday was a turning point. Wake up with hope that we’re not going let any of these people win

This is it. We’ve abandoned Europe and our allies for a Third World tinpot dictator.

Foreign Friends with Travel Plans to the U.S. for Conventions: A bit back I said you should maybe reconsider those plans. I would like to amend my prior statement. Cancel them. Cancel them now. We cannot keep you safe from our own government. Take your holiday in Spain or something.

this is literal idolatry and it's insane to me how they don't see this

lmao Larry Kudlow looks like he's been forced to say this stuff at gunpoint (wait for the end of the clip)

You get used to one level of monstrousness and callousness, then they outdo themselves. Jesus H. Christ.

Biggest commitment to a 3 second joke I've ever seen

I give it a month before he signs an EO about erectile dysfunction.

These EOs are getting wild.

This is giving A24 visuals

I miss when Biden was president and politics was boring

Trump on his order pausing tariffs: "We didn't have access to lawyers. We wrote it up from our hearts, right?"

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

Do I understand correctly that the basic situation is that the markets refuse to crash because they’re positive Trump will change course and Trump won’t change course unless the markets crash?

Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer in D.C. today: "And let’s usher in, as President Trump says, a ‘Golden Age’ of American manufacturing.'” This is nuts. Democrats really, really have to learn, as Robert Frost put it, to take their own side in a fight. www.thebulwark.com/p/clown-in-a...

I made this for you.

US yield 4.3%, Italy 3.8%. Any questions?

i think i speak for most americans when i say i hate anyone who is so stupid that he makes me care about treasury bonds

"This Whole Thing Smacks Of Gender," I holler as I overturn democracy and turn the United States of America into the United States of Shit

We’re launching a new DNC War Room. We are going to compete in every information space and put Trump and the Republicans on the defense every day. At this very moment, Trump is actively wrecking our country. He can’t go unchallenged.
