"medical freedom" = criminalizing vaccines, in the same way that "free speech" = banning words and books

Just an obvious point that anyone with the inside word on when these these total reversals are going to be announced is in a position to make almost limitless amounts of money. Don't forget that given the kind of people who make up this administration.

I believe, but cannot prove, that a lot of this happened in the first term, but it went uninvestigated and unpunished. It’s clearly, clearly out of control in term two. Huge leveraged trades in advance of Trump announcements etc.

1. Short everything 2. Announce tariffs 3. Close out short positions 4. Buy the dip 5. Call off the tariffs 6. Sell the spike 7. Repeat Is there any reason to believe Trump's entire inner circle isn't doing this?

The US will no longer worry about civilians getting in the way of their bombs: www.nytimes.com/live/2025/03...

Death. Death. More death. A lot of death.

jesus fucking christ, man, it gets really tired noting this kind of thing, but "[veterans] aren't fit to have a job or aren't willing to come to work" is the kind of headline that should absolutely destroy a fucking administration and would, if that administration were led by a democrat

If you want to know the reason Trump is starting a retaliatory trade war with our democratic allies and easing sanctions on Russian thugs it's this. Autocracy. He's alining with authoritarians and against democracies. That's why this is happening.

The first time they had to do stuff like spend money at his hotels and there was so much scrutiny even though he was ultimately never forced to divest, but this time it's just guys showing up with briefcases of cash and gold bars.

Elect a corrupt billionaire, get ruled by corrupt billionaires.

Trudeau: "He talked about banking again today in a tweet, which doesn't make any sense because 16 banks are currently active in Canada holding about $113b worth of assets in this country... what he wants is to see a total collapse of the Canadian economy, because that'll make it easier to annex us."

LOCK TF IN TIM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

2 day change -1,400 (always a tweet)

They are openly demanding that their members hide from the voters.

Every stupid university that unleashed militarized police on legal protestors set up the foundations for the violent persecution of free speech that’s about to come.

Kaja Kallas: 'It’s time we rearm, reequip and stand ready for Europe’s defence. We will use every lever we have – from adapting fiscal rules for defence spending, to mobilising our EU Budget, to new loans for joint procurement of equipment. We must also step up our support to…

I need the institution where I teach (NYU) to respond clearly and unequivocally saying this is unconstitutional and they will not be adhering to it. This is a red line.

What's it gonna take for everyone to realize the occupant of the white house is fundamentally anti-American?

It is critical Polis not fold on this, because the message they want to send is that you may commit crimes with impunity—including under state law—if they're crimes in service of Donald Trump.

Good God. Tina Peters was the county clerk who committed election fraud to prove the existence of election fraud. She was justly tried and convicted. Now they're going to try to free her.

The man cleared his throat. "We should stop," he intoned, pausing for effect, "listening... to anyone"

Just as a note, SCOTUS struck down compulsory Medicaid expansion because IT WAS UNCONSTITUTIONALLY COERCIVE OF STATES!

They’re literally running the government like the mafia. That’s not hyperbole. EVERYTHING will be a shakedown.

NEW: A source tells me that response teams for FEMA set to deploy to the South Carolina wildfires are unable to travel because their government issued travel cards have had their limits reduced to $1. FEMA response team cards were supposed to be exempt.

Trump just increased taxes by more than the last several Democratic presidents combined.

Can’t wait for all the free speech people complaining about the stifling safe space atmosphere of colleges for the last 10 years to say absolutely fucking nothing 🇺🇸🇺🇸

When I say Republican presidents are bad for the economy, I come with decades of first hand experience.

The #tradewar is on. Real-time electricity prices doubled few minutes after midnight EST in New England. 🔌💡

Wow if this turns out to be an advanced inside tip from someone, it's going to really set back the years of progress the crypto community have made in carefully establishing a reputation for trust and trans- Nah, I'm just kidding, this just tracks. See you at the next pump and dump everyone!

November 2024: Trump will save the economy March 2025: We have returned to subsistence agriculture

Ending funding to Ukraine and ending free trade with Canada all in 24 hours. Trump's redrawing the world and removing the US from the new map.

Don't print lies in the newspaper. Trump is pausing aid because he's on Russia's side of the conflict and wants to help Putin. He falsely claims it's to get a negotiated peace. WaPo prints it because Bezos wants to help Trump

Tesla is the kind of once in a lifetime company that will straight up say FREE SUPERCHARGING FOREVER IF YOU BUY OUR SHITTY TRUCK and then be like "unless we decide you've been using it too much, in which case we'll straight up take it away, leaving you with zero recourse, chump"

Boston Globe reports antics of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem at Vermont/Quebec library that sits on Canada-U.S. border. She repeatedly stepped over taped boundary marker in middle of the library, referring to Canada as the "51st State" every time she stood in Canada.

We are breaking the guarantees. We are breaking the oath. Nobody will ever believe the US anything. The liar turns US into a lying country.

Fun fact: Florida's orange harvest is now only 8% of what it was 20 years of global warming ago. Increasing hurricane activity and more hospitable environment for disease and pests, has *already* destroyed the Florida orange industry. citrusindustry.net/2024/05/07/f...

Australians: also not keen on Donald Trump.

BREAKING: The head of the FBI's New York Field Office has been pushed out after he urged employees to "dig in" when the Trump admin was purging bureau leadership and demanding the names of FBI employees who worked Jan. 6 cases. www.nbcnews.com/politics/jus...

Let’s see, Donald Trump launched his crypto business right before taking office. Melania did the day before the inauguration. Junior launched a new one too. Oh, and of course Eric did.

People should be calling this what it is, which is a crypto bailout. They're cutting cancer research so they can bailout rich, degenerate gamblers bsky.app/profile/ronf...

In the first Trump administration, Trump crashed US soybean exports .

Letting an elected official off the hook for serious, criminal charges in exchange for political support is textbook corruption and could be grounds for suspension of an attorney’s law license. americanoversight.org/american-ove...
