Accurate And Very Well Done….

Petit bilan aux Etats-Unis (3 mois après le retour de Trump) : - Les juges cèdent - Les avocats cèdent - Les Universités sont muselées sous la pression financière - Les fonctionnaires sont massivement purgés - Les journalistes & les opposants politiques sont menacés - Les étrangers sont pourchassés

I get the stock market is bad but the equivalent has already happened to foreign aid, research funding, and public health. Everyone didn't freak out because there isn't some ticker on the news measuring the number of cancer researchers and Ebola prevention experts being fired.

THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS A “TRADE DEFICIT”—IT’S JUST CALLED “BUYING THINGS.” YOU DO NOT HAVE A TRADE DEFICIT WITH YOUR DENTIST JUST BECAUSE HE NEVER BUYS ANYTHING FROM YOU.

This tweet turns two years old this month. S&P is up 47% since. 💰

23andMe is going under. Californians have the right to delete their genetic data before it's turned over to next party buying the assets. If you have a 23andMe account, go log in to download whatever reports you want to save, then follow these instructions to delete your data.

We’re going to guess minimal instructions 🫠

It’s not just that Trump admires Putin, he’s adopting his playbook. Trump’s comments today on Canada (“an arbitrary border”) and Greenland (“maybe more soldiers go there”) is EXACTLY how Putin talked about Ukraine. None of this is funny. It’s an explicit threat to sovereign nations.

“.. As a reminder, energy and critical minerals sold by Canada to the US are byproducts of explicit US efforts to reduce reliance on the Middle East and China. The notion that bilateral energy deficits with Canada are ‘subsidies’ is economically, politically and geologically illiterate.” - JPM 🇨🇦

‘I feel utter anger’: From Canada to Europe, a movement to boycott US goods is spreading

The richest man in the world who receives billions from the US govt and has the Chinese Communist Party and the Saudi royal family as business partners, is a victim of an “illegal” boycott.

Tesla is under investigation in Canada for processing 8,600 vehicle sales in just three days before a federal EV credit expired. The company claimed $43 million in credits over those three days. It was a big jump from usual sales volumes.

“Those nasty Canadians are ripping us off and are controlled by Mexican cartels. They’re poisoning us with fentanyl and need to become the 51st state or they will pay a high price” is a belief that literally ZERO Americans had six weeks ago. It’s entirely invented from scratch.

Expect the worst.

What’s the most bugfuck insane thing you can say on air and still get a CNN anchor to respond “right” at the end of it?

* Stopping cyber operations vs Russia * Offering up Ukraine on a platter * Starting a trade war with our closest allies * Mass firings in intel, FBI * Shutting down task forces fighting foreign influence + corruption What are we supposed to call all of this? How many dots do you need to connect?

This is sketchy as hell

Elon Musk gets more aid from the United States of America than Ukraine

So - I've actually led Ebola outbreak response at USAID. This is bunk from Elon. They have laid off most of the experts, they're bankrupting most of the partner orgs, have withdrawn from WHO, and muzzled CDC. What's left is a fig-leaf effort to cover their asses politically.

Trimming the headcount of federal employees, as Elon Musk wants to do, is unlikely to save much money. Civilian payroll costs account for just 4% of the $7trn the government spends each year econ.st/3CS39yA

No notes

Le « 51e état » a battu les 50 autres 😉

At this stage no one would be surprised if Donald pasted the original Russian text into his tweets.

I’ve got to admit it, Grok 3 is pretty good

Musk seems to think he uncovered massive fraud. In fact this is a well-known issue having to do with COBOL programing and the cost of inputting death data for people who died decades ago before records were digitized. oig.ssa.gov/assets/uploa...

Elon Musk is an idiot on an almost inconceivable scale. He had his high-school toadies pull a random list from a database he doesn’t understand, and on that basis alone decided that 60 MILLION SOCIAL SECURITY ENROLLEES, out of 72 million total, are fraudulent. 83% fraudulent!

Canada should be poaching American doctors and scientists.

With both RFK Jr and Gabbard confirmed, two people who rose to prominence spreading conspiracy theories about public health and national intelligence will now run the U.S. government agencies in charge of those areas. For someone studying these conspiracy theories for a decade... this is nauseating.

RFK Jr. at Health. The US has no decency left. Zero. I shouldn't be surprised. But I am.

Construire un tout-inclus sur des cadavres encore chauds, après avoir assuré, en toute impunité, la suite d'un nettoyage ethnique. Voilà où nous en sommes. youtu.be/q9q8V_Ptzl8?...

Arrêtons de dire que Trump est un «deal maker», c’est un mafieux Avec l’Ukraine ou Gaza, le président américain ne pratique pas les méthodes du monde des affaires, comme il veut le faire croire, mais le chantage, la menace et la violence. ✍️ Le billet de @thomas-legrand.bsky.social :
