Marjorie Taylor Greene buying Apple, Pi, Qualcomm, Dell, Amazon, and Lam stocks seems a lot more sus before the tariff exemptions on electronics components, smartphones, semiconductors, and computers. Martha Stewart would like a word.

Staffers Walk Out of RFK Jr.’s Slur-Ridden Speech About Deep State - The Daily Beast What a disgrace you are. To our country, and your families legacy.

My kid was in their school’s production of The Lion King (not posting a full album don’t want to post other kids) BUT this is my new favorite picture of Jordan. Jordan as Rafiki or in my mind Jordan as Lenny Kravitz as Rafiki. They KILLED! Got the biggest ovation at curtain call!

A president who has the power to send an innocent human being to a foreign concentration camp, but claims he lacks the power to bring them back, is committing the crime of false imprisonment.

BREAKING: 36k people showed up in LA for Bernie and AOC’s rally. In the off year. Americans are pissed — and anyone ignoring that is making a big mistake.

But don't worry. All of the human beings we sent to El Salvador are absolutely, super-duper guilty.

Nobody moves and nobody gets hurt.

Guys, guys, guys. It’s not math. It’s not finance. It’s not economics. It’s all about psychology. Abnormal psychology. Read the DSM-5’s chapters on Cluster B personality disorders. And then it all becomes clear. www.nytimes.com/2025/04/08/b...

WHEN THE WOLF COMES HOME, Nat Cassidy: This is a balls-to-the-wall horror novel which I defy you to put down...it's that good. Published later this month. You might want to get your claws into this one.

Trump praises Erdogan who has a lot of blackmail on Trump regarding a bribery scheme involving Pam Bondi's former law firm Ballard Partners and Trump, which resulted in the US abandoning the Kurds abruptly after being paid by the Turks. Tells Netanyahu he has "to be reasonable".

Do not normalize children dying from measles. Measles was previously eliminated in the US, thanks to vaccines. When children die from measles, it means that adults have catastrophically failed to protect them because they have rejected basic science.

Peter Navarro used an imaginary economic source in his books named Ron Vera (or navarro). This administration is chock full of people talking to themselves.

Remember the time when he told us to not panic and the deadly Pandemic will go away in April ... by Easter?

My wife is 100% on board with RFK Jr.'s plan to remove fluoride from water because she's a dental hygienist and could use the extra money and job security.

Raskin: We even have the right to call the president deranged for crashing our economy, destroying $6 trillion of wealth and turning our 401(k) Into a 201 (K). And the press has the right to call the Gulf of Mexico the Gulf of Mexico.

DEMOCRACY RISES!!!

Lithuanians bid farewell to the four US soldiers who died during training exercise. Meanwhile, WH.. 🦗

Mark Kelly: "This is not surprising. Here's a guy who told Americans to inject bleach into their bodies, who sent a mob to Capitol Hill. And now I think it's fair to say he stands out as singlehandedly destroying more wealth with his bad decisions than anybody else who has ever lived on this planet"

Epic!

I remain authentic to who I am and a large part of the past 4.5 years for me has been my sobriety journey. I think I’ve been an inspiration to many that if I could get sober, anyone can do it... But just when you think it’s easy,,, it ain’t…

This, just now:

You know, I don’t think too many people know more about economics than me. Very few. And I probably know more about the stock market than anybody. Ever. I really get it. But it’s been very bad to us lately. Very unfair. So, I’m thinking tariffs. On the stock market. Never been done. So we’ll see.

These are the same people that were willing to let their grandparents die so they could eat at Arby's again without a mask

He hates the military. We are just props.

Over $2 trillion has been erased from the stock market so far today.

The Kremlin says that American and Russian visions are now aligned. 80 years of hawkish foreign policy upended in a mere six weeks.

For Trump nothing is off-limits when it comes to finding $$$ for billionaire tax breaks, including cutting health care for the disadvantaged.

If you are looking for a great read, look no further than Pulitzer Prize winner Larry Wright's newest thriller, "The Human Scale." The novel, which is timely and masterfully written, reinforces Wright's standing as one of Americas most versatile and best all-around novelists.

If I still had a classroom, this would be front and center, banner sized.

BREAKING: European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen just announced that the E.U. is preparing further countermeasures against the 20% tariffs Trump imposed on them. The trade war is officially on. Damn.

It's not a bad idea to go to the local Walmart or big box retailer and buy lots of consumables now. From toothpaste to soap, anything you can find storage space for, buy before they have to replenish inventory. Even if it's made in the USA , they will jack up the price and blame it on tariffs.
