Paper books printed prior to 2022 will become the currency of the knowledge economy of the future… and I’m not even joking.

It's pretty obvious that a lot of US mainstream media either doesn't recognise authoritarianism or doesn't want to call it out. Either way, it's an excellent way to destroy trust in your institution.

It’s only getting much play in the trade/transport niche press. But pretty real product shortages beginning in mid-May or so are already locked in. They’re maybe a thousand miles out in the Pacific Ocean. Modern trade takes place in gargantuan container ships. There are very detailed records …

Not a single international cargo ship at the Port of Seattle. The port is dead. The last ship from China will dock at a West coast port on the 29th, and the last Chinese ship will dock on the East coast around May 10th. After that, there will be no more shipments arriving from China. We’re screwed.

Don't get me wrong. Things are bad. Authoritarianism, Facism, all the bad "isms" are raging and rising and we can't let our guard down. But the people doing it....are uncommitted idiots with imposter syndrome. 1/?

We've really gone so far past a constitutional crisis when someone says this and ends with "so, stay tuned for that" like they're announcing a library opening, not getting rid of federal court districts entirely.

The European Union and China are now starting negotiations to abolish EU tariffs on Chinese electric vehicles. This is a major strategic failure for the United States.

this is a very church-kid intrusive thought but the thing circling around in the back of my head 100% of the time is you’re supposed to give the baby to the person who *doesn’t* agree to chop it in half

CEOs upset about Trump’s tariffs sound like mob bosses shouting “I thought we had a deal!” at the Joker.

A sudden drop like this—especially during a global selloff—isn’t a sign of strength. It signals collapsing demand expectations, fear of recession, and market instability. This isn’t prosperity, it’s a warning.

The administration is a perfect storm of dumb people who enjoy inflicting pain and are addicted to psychotic cruelty and quadrupling down. It ends in total ruin if you don't impeach him.

Rep. Don Bacon (R-NE) has a bill to return tariff authority to Congress. If it were to pass, the purposeless tariffs would end. Speaker Johnson is blocking it. Call your member of Congress, R or D, & urge a discharge petition on the bill, which forces a vote. U.S. Capitol switchboard: 202-224-3121.
