Last I checked Trump had an EO prohibiting antisemitism in his Federal govt. Pimping a guy who stans Hitler would seem to violate the EO but maybe I'm misunderstanding how it all works.

In this Ohio diner, it was a tradition: waffles and eggs, big cup of Folgers, then everyone crowds into the old unmarked van to drive around town grabbing random people and sending them to El Salvador torture prisons. But now the woke mob wants to take all of that away.

I refuse to give Trump any credit for alleged 4D chess moves. He is an idiot. He's been bankrupted 6 times. He doesn't understand how tariffs work. The world didn't concede or bend the knee. They started dumping US bonds. He folded & rich got richer buying the dip and following shock doctrine.

The credibility of the US government is completely shot. Gone. Annihilated. Nobody anywhere in the world can believe a single word that comes out of this Administration. Ever.

He just testified all morning about the reasons why the tariff policy was going to make America great. Then he checked his phone and realized everything he just said was canceled on Truth Social.

What's that term for an arsonist who keeps setting fires, and revels in attention for putting some of them out? (Rhetorical question.)

Sure, Kamala Harris would have have preserved our global power and domestic prosperity. But she would have done so as a Black woman. by Pete Hegseth and Stephen Miller

If the agent of an embittered KGB officer somehow won the US presidency and entered into the office bent on destroying the USA in its national influence, network of alliances, and the American people’s quality of life, what would he be doing differently?

Yes, it’s a bit hard to see now, but allowing the president to become a king who can kidnap citizens while also demolishing the global financial system is a small price to pay for getting to keeping 23 trans women from playing college sports.

Ok what’s going on here? Yields are going up which means bond prices are going down. Fewer buyers of the world’s safest asset. Normally when the economy slows, there’s a flight to safety, not away from it. Means the world may be abandoning America. We are flirting with a true crisis.

It’s the stupid, economy.

People need to understand. The 10 year treasury note is the backbone of the entire economy. Mortgage rates, consumer debt etc are based on its rate. It's considered the "risk free" rate. What happens when the basis of the financial markets is no longer risk free is a total financial market collapse.

To be fair, one man technically does not have this kind of power; he has it only because he has the support of an entire political party and its movement

Donald playing golf every weekend isn't just an opportunity to ignore the problems of the American people, it is also an opportunity to rip off the American taxpayers. Here is a bill the Secret Service got for staying at Mar-a-Lago for a few days in his first term. 42 rooms at $396.15/night.

Reid Hoffman has no children. He's overweight, which is obviously fine except his his health stats may be pretty crappy. No idea what his marriage is like but he seems kind of gross. But he's right, Ignoring work/life balance doesn't matter if you're dead. fortune.com/2025/04/02/r...

It should be assumed that when they settle on a new leader that domestic surveillance was part of the deal. Few other reasons that the big two at NSA would be outright fired unless they refused to do something unconstitutional.
