Good night to the US economy....prices going up...

When a picture says 1,000 words.....

“The Europeans feel like there is a gun to their head from the East with the Russians as a direct national security threat, and now a gun to the head from the West, a country that does not support core values of collective security, of rule of law, and of territorial integrity." @ianbremmer.com

While Trump & Musk gut & decimate NOAA and the EPA.... Wildfires rage across the Carolinas; South Carolina governor issues state of emergency www.usatoday.com/story/news/n...

Ronald Reagan is spinning in his grave. wapo.st/3QGplPj

One of the saddest moments in American history....a US President (and Vietnam draft dodger) sides with a dictator & killer over a freedom fighter and war hero....

Even Rupert Murdoch's @wsj.com can't sane wash the truth... www.wsj.com/opinion/puti...

"It was a sickening spectacle: the man who tried to upend democracy bullying the man who is fighting for democracy. Pretty rich for a draft dodger to lecture a man whose name has become synonymous with wartime bravery." - Maureen Dowd www.nytimes.com/2025/03/01/o...

Just another disgraceful moment for @foxnewscorporation.bsky.social .. The man who is trying to save Democracy is asked if he should apologize to the man who is destroying it. Bret Baier begins Zelensky Interview by Asking, 'Do You Think You Owe an Apology to President Trump?' mediaite.com/a/wfzeg

Bingo!

Amen.

“I want him to be more on our side.” - Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky After Friday's Oval Office Blowup.

Amen.

"You are not serious people.” - Logan Roy, co-founder and the former CEO of Waystar Royco

"I've never seen a public beating by the American president to a wartime ally like this before. Putin doesn’t need to engage directly with Zelenskyy—the Americans are doing the lifting for him. It's the best day for Putin since the war started." - @ianbremmer.com

The U.S. economy is showing signs of a slump, made worse by President Trump’s tariffs. A spike in jobless claims points to a weakening labor market. With inflation high and interest rates rising, the outlook is bleak for many Americans. - Qartz qz.com/u-s-economy-...

You got to admit. Trump sure has a strange way to grow the economy: Unemployment claims in D.C. jump 20% as DOGE rolls out layoffs, buyouts

Trump’s betrayal to those being fired….they bought into his BS….voted for him....and are now they are out of work. www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...
