They know exactly what they're doing. The question is how will the rest of us respond to these Nazis?

If this is the mood in a Trump +22 district hoooooo boy

A previously unflappable market finally flapped. A fifth straight Friday loss, this one a deeper but still orderly setback, digesting a slow-motion "growth scare" and policy flux. Cyclical, bank and small-cap stocks back to their Election Day gaps, sentiment mixed, froth being skimmed. New column.

“.. ‘We did not elect him,’ a man shouted. “.. more constituents shouted questions about Musk’s access to taxpayer data and yelled ‘don’t lie to us.’” #WI06

Here come the “town hall no-show’s”. #Wisconsin wisconsinexaminer.com/2025/02/21/r...

What are the chances the US and rus have already signed a pact to divide Ukraine between them and all this noise in media is to just gaslight Ukraine into looking as bad as possible?

Big Balls’s past gets more scrutiny — including the internship where he was terminated. “You’re willing to risk our entire network to a 17-year-old?” one frustrated executive asked the company’s CEO in 2022. “Are you for real right now?” @cnn.com www.cnn.com/2025/02/21/p...

Day 109 OFF Cable News

Consumer sentiment declined nearly 10% from January. Donald Trump's tariffs and trade wars are spiking consumers' anxiety.

“You’re willing to risk our entire network to a 17-year-old? Are you for real right now?” That teen is "Big Balls" Corisitine, the recording is from 2022, and the voice is from a CEO worried about him as a security risk. Now Musk has him snooping in your personal data www.cnn.com/2025/02/21/p...

So much for “efficiency” and cost savings. Ask how much this will cost the FBI. www.washingtonpost.com/national-sec...

Musk and DOGE are closing local Social Security offices, making it hard for people with disabilities to access help. Frank Bisignano, former FISERV CEO, is Trump’s nominee for commissioner of Social Security. He is likely to expand this. www.propublica.org/article/doge...

Protestors gathered in New York against the autogenocide being committed by US healthcare corporations and in support of a fair trial for Luigi and justice for millions of people killed to boost corporate profits. #3E #EndAutogenocide #Feb21 (📷 ‪ @oscarthinks.bsky.social & @miasato.bsky.social ‬)

"This is the kind of error from which a career is not supposed to recover. By the time I had lunch with Kevin Hassett in 2007, he should have been a laughingstock." Meet your director of the National Economic Council:

Good Morning friends 💙 Friday night #47 fired several military officials leading us closer toward fascism. Thank you, #GovernorPritzker for being the leader we need ~ #SheShed #Illinois youtu.be/u3qaPhMmoIk?...

The “tolerant left” me died when Roe v Wade was overturned and Nazi solutes were normalized. She gone.

DOGE’s gaslight accounting is getting covered from multiple outlets. A sampling from just this week: @politico.com @bloomberg.com @nytimes.com @nbcnews.com

AXIOS: “.. GOP lawmakers are getting roasted back home over President Trump's swift cuts and firings, as polls show signs his monthlong honeymoon could be wearing off.” www.axios.com/newsletters/...

The president of the United States is an enemy of the United States.

We kinda already figured that out. www.thewrap.com/elon-musk-bi...

Rest assured that if the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs was a rapist, drunk, child molester, or had been seen giving a Nazi salute at CPAC, Felon 47 wouldn’t have fired him last night.

“Russia is not a country forged by shared values, common beliefs or a unifying purpose — it is an empire assembled by force, bound together by lies and sustained through the theft of other peoples’ art, culture and history.” thehill.com/opinion/inte...

Kudos to GOP Senator Thom Tillis for calling out Trump’s dangerous policy of surrendering to war criminal Putin. Now, he and other pro-Ukraine Republicans should start using their power as U.S. senators to restrain Trump as much as possible.

Trump was willing to stand up there for a few minutes to pretend to care about black history, but hugging the guy was a deal breaker.

Delusional old man. His approval rating is tanking.

200 million dollars of waste.

Imagine my surprise when Babymama #4 showed up looking for her loot from the Ketamine King.

Something is shifting. They are still breaking things and stealing things. And they will keep trying to break and to steal. But the propaganda magic around the oligarchical coup is fading. (1/2)

Sharing more townhall videos today because they’re giving me hope. THIS is good trouble! Who is this man? I want to shake his hand and buy him a drink.
