www.economist.com/middle-east-... If anyone thinks this group of morons has thought this through you're as delusional as they are. I couldn't think of any worse 'leaders' as these clowns to be navigating current events successfully.

Trump, as always, has no plan, only bravado and bull$hit, and we'll continue to pay the price for generations for both his domestic and foreign 'policies'. The US can and must do better than the current clowns in office. www.nytimes.com/2025/06/13/u...

Trump and his family stand to gain substantially from their corrupt crypto ventures. The rest of the economy will be subject to large and unregulated risks. Beware. https://robertreich.substack.com/p/trumps-crypto-inc

Do we need any more proof that the vast majority of Republican politicians are a bunch of scared little wusses. Trump is a coward and a bully, stand up to him. What happened to courage and integrity in the USA? politicalwire.com/2025/03/19/m...

apnews.com/video/white-... White House press secretary says French should be 'grateful' to US they are 'not speaking German'. The most unqualified administration ever, I guess one prerequisite is that they all failed grade school history. Such stupid simplifications make the world more idiotic.

Trump on 15 August: "Egg prices are up 43 percent". On that day the egg price index was $3.20 a dozen. Today, nearly two months after his inauguration, egg prices hit yet another record high at $5.90 a dozen. Now he wants everyone to "shut up about the egg prices". #trump #eggs #economy #prices

Kelly: When I was flying in combat over Iraq during the first Gulf War, I didn’t expect that there was a 10-year-old kid sitting in South Africa who would one day become the richest guy in the world and call me a traitor for doing my job. Now, he kind of acts like a 12-year-old kid

This 'administration' has thrown to the scrap heap a century of ally building, decency, and promotion of principles, all led by a sexual felon draft dodger, a Nazi sympathizer, and a hillbilly couch-rapist, as well as their sycophantic followers. #treason #traitor www.reuters.com/investigatio...

Donald Trump famously believes that "trade wars are good, and easy to win," as he tweeted in 2018. The market, however, believes the opposite: That a trade war is bad, is easy to lose, and could plunge the U.S. into an avoidable recession.

As a veteran I find it appalling that a draft dodger con man and the worlds richest exploiter are doing this, but I am also ashamed that so many veterans couldn't see through the MAGA BS years ago. #education #veterans #disability apnews.com/article/trum...

This is subtle but nonetheless concerning. I received this e-mail today from the VA with a video from the director that I wanted to watch, because I'm intrigued by the title. But it's only available through Musk's Twitter. No text, no other options. Why Twitter? Makes one wonder. #VA #dougcollins

I guess Trump lost his nerve, it may have been ideal for him to research this issue beforehand . My prediction, he'll back off on many of these "red meat" initiatives because he knows they are unpopular with the majority of the US. But of course he'll claim victory. apnews.com/article/trum...
