NEW: DOJ is dropping its prosecution of a man it identified as an MS-13 leader and whose capture was celebrated with a huge press conference by AG Bondi, Kash Patel and Glenn Youngkin. w/ @joshgerstein www.politico.com/news/2025/04...

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

Had a very sweet night out in London with the mighty @edsolomon.bsky.social

1) Do something autocratic 2) Wait to see how people react 3) If they don't push back hard enough, carry on 4) If they do push back hard enough, "pause" it 5) Illegally consolidate more power 6) Repeat

The honeymoon seems to be over. What's next? finance.yahoo.com/news/live/st...

Clearly

There are three branches of government. The Judicial is one of them. Moses in a basket doesn’t get to decide what judges should do.

This is the worst, weakest, weirdest administration in American history. And yes, that includes William Henry Harrison, who died after only 30 days in office. EVEN HE had a more effective administration.

Martha Stewart went to prison for insider trading. Not sure why I am reminding you this.

If Taiwan’s tarrif rate is lowered, China will invade Taiwan. Tit for tat. Your move, Orange Shit Gibbon. Boys will be boys…

Of fuck off, #BrokenTimes. Children are dying because of his disinformation but because he wears jeans and hiking boots, he's "stoic," "nervous," and "hitting his stride." Save your empathy for those he is killing.

Genuine question. If Kemi Badenoch and Liz Truss were the only two people living in a village, who would be the village idiot?

The 10% tariff alone is a $2500 per household annual tax hike!

I've been waiting for this.

Bartiromo to Bessent: "You're talking about $6 trillion in market value lost in a week. You're talking about CEOs now unwilling to give guidance for 2025. Is there a response or a backup plan for what seems to be corporate America shutting down corporate activity?"

Today’s best meme. Enjoy

1. White House, Monday, on a 90-day pause: “Fake news.” 2. Bessent, today: a 90-day pause was discussed on Sunday. “This was his strategy all along.” www.wsj.com/politics/pol...

How could a slavery scandal involving the President of the United States be worse than we thought? This extremely long, extremely detailed, and fully sourced PROOF report explains. This—not the tariff war—is the most important story in America right now. I hope you will consider checking it out.

The House passed legislation to prohibit federal district judges from issuing nationwide injunctions, marking a significant step in an escalating Republican campaign targeting judges who have blocked some of Trump’s executive orders.

Fixed it 😉

George W. Bush Center announces that its annual forum will be on the theme of the American Promise, with the mostly quiet former president speaking on the theme from his inaugural “that everyone belongs, that everyone deserves a chance, that no insignificant person was ever born"

"It's criminal." Nina Olson, former national taxpayer advocate at the IRS, emphasizes the illegality of the IRS sharing taxpayer data with ICE.

The world is currently laughing at the orange felon for caving in on his own trade war without getting one single thing in return from any country. Embarrassing scumbag.

The entire reason the FDIC exists is because of bank collapses and the Great Depression. People lost everything when a bank collapsed. The Federal Govt. ensures your deposit up to like $250k so people have faith in the banks which is important and so that the little guy doesn't get wiped out.

President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said he believed 'the real number is much higher'. www.ft.com/content/bfa0...

Only 35% of Americans think the country is heading in the right direction. Rough numbers for an early presidential term.

“Mommy, no. Mommy.” Daughter captures the moment masked ICE agents smash the window of her mother's car in order to take her into custody. The government claims the 52-year old seamstress is an associate of the MS-13 gang. www.thebaltimorebanner.com/community/lo...

This isn't The Art of the Deal. It's insider trading with a bad comb-over. Step 1: Tank the Market, Scare the Non-Millionaires Step 2: Let the Aristocrats Feast Step 3: Flip, but say ‘Winning’ Step 4: Pretend None of This Ever Happened & Get Your Media Dregs To Do The Same Rinse, Enrich, Repeat.

Yellow Chested Halfwit

Sure was a lucky break for those billionaires to be at the White House today when the tariffs were reversed. Good day in the market for them.

A play in two acts.

Don’t overthink this. He’s asking for bribes.

"She's a supermodel but she lives in Canada."

Sen. Adam Schiff (D-CA): "I'm writing to the White House to demand who knew in advance that the President was going to, once again, flip flop on tariffs. And are people cashing in? There is just all too much opportunity for people in the White House and the administration to be insider trading"

The stupid... it b-u-r-n-s...!!! 🔥 🔥 🔥

A very happy birthday to Peter Gammons, the man Alex Cora rightly calls "Legend." "And all of a sudden the ball was there, like the Mystic River Bridge, suspended out in the black of the morning ... " Poetry. Every baseball writer today is a product of how Peter did the job. Long may he run.

A Delaware judge finds the right-wing network aired false and defamatory statements about Dominion Voting Systems' role in the 2020 presidential election. A jury trial is slated for late April.

Not sure how these people sleep at night
