Putting a lot of faith into guys who have dubious track records on health. www.cnn.com/2025/04/16/p...

The market lost $3.1 trillion in value due to White House messaging and Musk reduced his estimated "savings" to just 15% of his original estimate. Most of us would be fired if we mismanaged and misrepresented our jobs that much. www.reuters.com/world/us/mus...

Every single “investment expert “ is emphasizing diversification to include investment in other stock markets. And that will extend to private markets and start ups. It’s possible to export your smartest people, hire overseas , and fund their business at a fraction of costs you face here. Insane

Thanks for the propaganda Yahoo News. 🙄

I am but a humble cable news host with a bachelor’s in philosophy, but I feel like at some point the bond market is also going to notice that the GOP is going to pass a deficit financed 5 trillion dollar tax cut. Maybe?

Has there ever been a man with more apologists than the man occupying the Oval Office?

The executive targets his opponents w/bogus investigations. His government disappears people w/out due process and vanishes them beyond reach. He usurps legislative power, controls public funds at will, & consolidates power. Loyalty is expected — or else. Authoritarianism isn’t coming. It’s here.

For productive negotiations and deal-making, trust and predictability are valuable. The man in the White House is neither.

pro tip: if your government claims to have no money for children's heathcare but will eagerly waste millions on a gaudy military parade to stroke the fragile ego of a broken-inside president, you just might live in a shithole country

For as much as the man in the White House brings up Biden, you would think he lost. It’s all an attempt to distract, deflect and minimize responsibility. youtu.be/UltBd5Sd7Aw?...

One man just wiped out $10 trillion in wealth, is destroying centuries-old legal protections, and seems determined to unravel humanity’s greatest public health achievement. In 3 months. I don’t know how we get out of this. But if we do, one person can never have that kind of power again.

Can we stop calling these atrocities "deportations." These people sold to El Salvadorian prisons were not deported. Deportation is a process that did not take place. They were rounded up and removed with no process. They were kidnapped, not deported.

“Our country was the strongest, believe it or not, from 1870 to 1913. You know why? It was all tariff-based. We had no income tax,” said the man in the Oval Office. Child labor, racial discrimination, economic inequality, and labor problems. At least there were robber barons.

How can anyone who justifies, encourages, or celebrates chaos call themselves a patriotic American?

Why is it okay for our investments to suffer? And, if money is already pouring in as the man in the Oval Office says, why are we still paying the price? www.cnn.com/2025/04/06/p...

Trump is unleashing economic chaos as he gears up to pass giant tax cuts for the richest Americans. But don't worry, he's got it all under control — he's heading to Miami to play golf.

When the man in the White House gets a Presidential Library, let’s call it the Museum of Lies, Deceit and Treachery.
