Let’s be clear, this the Trump Taj Mahal of economies and we know how that ended

To coin a term for this excreable era of American oligarchy: The Rich Man’s Reign of Terror @anneapplebaum.bsky.social

Is there anything these laughable MAGA Minions won’t swallow? This guy critiques an absolute idiot in Hegseth, stunningly unqualified to lead the DoD, at the same time extolling the absolute idiot that nominated him as a “savvy” businessman who nominated an idiot. www.politico.com/news/magazin...

Can’t wait to destroy your governor’s campaign @byrondonalds.bsky.social You will own every last shred of this sh*tstorm of MAGA Trump idiocy. That crowd is just the beginning.

There’s a difference between bloated and inefficient. Cutting government without a plan, one that takes into account ensuring government actually works efficiently, is counterproductive. How “bloated” are governments really?  economist.com/graphic-deta... from The Economist

Classic rent seeking.

Pretty much. Who has any interest in trading with a bully who betrays every deal his ever made?

Wait til the bill for the deficit spending shows up. Multiple generations will be paying off the giveaway to billionaires.

It's time for veterans to unite and pushback against the attacks on our healthcare, benefits, and community. The Unite for Veterans march in DC on D-Day this year will bring together the full range of the veterans community to demand our rights as veterans of earlier generations did too!

It’s axiomatic that a lifelong pathological liar will lie about EVERYTHING now that he has the power to force the government to lie about EVERYTHING. I’d say it’s Orwellian but really, I think even Oceania’s elites would take umbrage at that comparison saying, “That guy is just evil dude.”

All this. Democrats 1st job is to market every single minute the mind boggling incompetence and casual indifference to the harm Republicans are inflicting on the country and Americans. Their second job is to present a better alternative.

So a fool and a felon is making our economic policy…and 70 some odd millions voted for this sh*tshow.

Worth making this point: How many country’s are interested in negotiating with a pathological liar who betrays every agreement he’s ever made? Seriously, ask any subcontractor he’s ever worked with whether they’d work with him again. He’s a lying cheat, they wouldn’t nor will other countries.
