It seems almost unavoidable at this point that we are headed for a deep, deep recession. Just based on 200K+ federal firings & pullback of contracts, the March employment report (to be released April 4) seems certain to show bigger job losses than any month ever outside of a few in 2008-9 and 2020.

Season 3 of #whitelotus has me cringing already. We’re so back.

Starting trade wars to make it easier to take over the government was literally the plot to the Star Wars prequels.

This just in: Groundhog sees shadow of Mordor, predicts winter will last four more years.

One GOP proposal takes aim squarely at parents raising children on their own by eliminating the “head of household” filing status to reap some $200B more in taxes over a decade from single parents and other adults caring for dependents on their own.

@strictscrutiny.bsky.social what do you think the vibe check with scotus will be on this? 🤪 www.nytimes.com/2025/01/21/u...

“Dictator on Day One”

These kinds of brains must be what makes them the big bucks 🥴

I wrote about how the richest guys on Earth also happen to be the biggest losers on the planet. My latest newsletter: www.jphilll.com/p/were-ruled....

This place feels like moving into a new home and having to use a bowl to drink your first coffee because you haven’t found the mugs yet But you love it and the mugs are around somewhere

Trump to House Republicans this morning: “I suspect I won’t be running again unless you say he’s so good we got to figure something else out.” And so it begins.

@leahlitman.bsky.social can we get your “cringe in your feelings” playlist you mentioned on @strictscrutiny.bsky.social? 🙏🏻
