Why is trump lying about trade negotiations with China? Is he just trying to manifest or something?

Finally, an accurate headline

Do any of these tariffs apply to any firearms? Could we argue 2nd Amendment to then get rid of the tariffs?

Any republican attacking judges appointed by either party have to be asked the question: did they vote to confirm that judge? Judges don't just magically. They aren't appointed unilaterally. Appointed judges passed through a confirmation process for a reason.

don't worry, they've moved their war planning directly from Signal to the War Thunder forums

It's interesting to watch the party that claims to want American greatness piss away all the reasons other countries have had to look to the US for anything. The only result will be the total destruction of America's influence and ability to lead on a global stage

If musk gets his way, and the government shuts down, I gotta hand it to him - it will accomplish his goal of reducing government spending. I just have to point out that the government spending no money at all will lead to the destruction of the US economy, and whatever leadership we have left.

Decided to see if I could buy any of those gambling stock things to bet that Tesla was going to crash even further. Thankfully, my brokerage doesn't let me just up and gamble without getting approved first.

Risk of ‘Trumpcession’ rising, economists say, as global markets fall

This is my new favorite Grok stat

HERO vs ZERO I'm in a state of shock & still trying to process yesterday's shameful, traitorous debacle in the WH: A DAY THAT WILL LIVE IN INFAMY. Our standing in the world has plummeted overnight, but the repercussions will be felt forevermore. #SlavaUkraini🇺🇦 #ShameOnUS🇺🇸

If you’re siding with Vladimir Putin, you’re wrong.

Why don't I ever see people talking about how what is happening at the federal level is going to result in an economic catastrophy? Tens, hundreds of thousands out of work? The GDP shrinking by trillions?

It makes me irrationally angry when I see "X (formerly Twitter)" in places. Either just keep calling it Twitter, or call it that site owned by a nazi. It's been years now.

Holy shit this cartoon.

Born to late to participate in US wars in the middle east. Born to early to participate in US wars in the middle east. Born just in time to participate in US wars in the middle east.

Elon Musk claims it's a crime to publish the names of the young engineers who work for him who have access to systems they shouldn't. Here they are: Akash Bobba Edward Coristine Luke Farrito Gautier Cole Killian Gavin Kliger Ethan Shaotran

With all this chaos, let us not forget - Donald Trump needs to release his tax returns. Let him prove to the country that he's doing this because he thinks it's the right thing to do - at that he's not receiving millions in bribes, kick-backs, and 'gratuities'

The "but her emails" crowd has been really quiet about letting an unvetted, completely unelected NAZI full access to far too many government systems for anyone to be comfortable with, let alone be legal! #nomoremusk #nomorenazis
