NEW: The Trump admin has informed NOAA that two buildings that are critical for weather forecasting will have their leases canceled. If this comes to pass, it's a really big deal. Includes weather fcst nerve center in College Park, Md.: www.axios.com/2025/03/03/d...

Imagine that. 💰

If Trump is talking about tariffs on exports, we are in for a second Great Depression.

The same week that Elon Musk baselessly called Social Security a "Ponzi scheme," his co-president Donald Trump announced that he wants to create a national crypto reserve. This could result in taxpayer dollars being used to prop up an actual Ponzi scheme. Hello?

Conan: You know, Anora is having a good night. That's great news. Two wins already. I guess Americans are excited to see somebody finally stand up to a powerful Russian.

Incredible levels of grift and corruption happening right in front of us

The magic of state support.

So, let's get this straight: > Trump announced a Crypto Reserve, including Sacks' select shitcoins > Trump, Don Jr., & Sacks allegedly (?) placed massive bets on these coins right before > Trump & his friends profit billions by using the taxpayers to fund their exits The corruption is staggering.

There’s so much waste, fraud, and abuse, we have to fire the nuclear engineers — but damn it if we can’t still buy some crypto so David Sacks and the rest of Trump’s buddies don’t lose money. They are scamming the American people.

America First?

Hegseth has ordered the Pentagon to STOP offensive cyber operations against Russia. This is insane. Russia is actively targeting the U.S., and the ability to conduct offensive operations (which was authorized by Trump in 2018!*) was at least one deterrent. Not anymore www.nytimes.com/2025/03/02/u...

Will the GOP care? Will it do anything? I don’t hold out much hope.

This is the most right wing newspaper in the UK. Extraordinary.

Imagine though if Zelenskyy had worn a tan suit.

Ike asking Churchill why he doesn’t wear a suit before not suggesting that they cower to a maniac.

Trump thinks Zelenskyy needs to be nicer to Putin, the criminal who invaded his country unprovoked and killed hundreds of thousands of people for no good reason. Incredible.

"Why don't you wear a suit?"

Someone from Russian state media just slips into the Oval Office?????

Today in a nutshell:

Winston Churchill visiting the White House in 1942. Not wearing a suit. #SlavaUkraïni 🇺🇦

Three months ago under Biden the prediction was +3.9% growth. Welcome to the Trump recession.

The United States is no longer part of the free world in its foreign policy.

I have covered presidential politics for 40 years. This was the most juvenile display by a President and Vice President I have ever seen. Other presidents treated their enemies with more respect. This is a low point and a dark day for the US. Totally embarrassing.

People need to understand that we are in an entirely new paradigm. It is now Russia the US against Ukraine and Europe. This is not a shift in US policy, it is a transformation of what kind of country the United States is in the world

My deepest apologies to Ukraine. My deepest, heartfelt, devastated apologies to you all. I cannot believe what our nation has become under this wretched man. May God forgive us, and may He come to the aid of the people of Ukraine. Gracious Lord, have mercy.

Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk responds, something we hopefully see a lot more of that from other European leaders. It's never been clearer than in this moment that Trump is Putin's ally, not Europe's.

Per @chrisdjackson.bsky.social on another platform: “It took me 30 seconds to find at least ten postings from Zelensky directly thanking the United States for their support. There are many more. This is pure BS.”

If this ambush of President Zelensky was planned, it makes the behavior of Trump and Vance even more disgraceful. What democratic ally can ever trust a single word uttered by these despicable men who spit in the face of every American who fought and died to save our democratic nation?

If you missed today's lowest point in US History, do not despair. A new lowest point is expected to arrive tomorrow.

Hey, Marco Rubio. Enjoying your decision to throw away whatever last shreds of your dignity to serve this disgraceful human?

If Trump can make millions of people believe he won in 2020, making them believe Ukraine started the war will be easy.
