Just remember that the vast majority of brainwashed fools who voted for the carnage we are seeing were led down this path by social media algorithms...then act accordingly on hat information.

Tough on certain crimes, anyway. Steal from health programs, become governor and then Senator, steal from nearly everyone you do business with, become president...

The Justice Department has shut down its unit that investigates cryptocurrency fraud “effective immediately,” even as the Trump administration ramps up its embrace of the emerging digital currency market. The move is one more effort to scale back enforcement of white-collar and financial crimes.

You’d think when you’re claiming the richest country in the world can’t afford childhood cancer research you might wait a year before throwing yourself a 100 million dollar birthday parade. But carpe diem, suckers.

Wall Street tried to bail out Trump yesterday afternoon and before open, and he just couldn't help himself...It's absolutely amazing.

There are still people that think this man is something other than incredibly stupid. *LEAVITT: TRUMP THINKS US HAS WORKFORCE TO MAKE IPHONES ONSHORE

i know it’s a fraught word but these are degenerate people

Trump is a daily reminder of just how good Joe Biden was as president.

i like the guy’s music but jay-z is and has always been a huge piece of shit gothamist.com/news/a-brook...

Men assess their own capacity to work a factory job with the same accuracy that they assess their chance of beating Serena Williams at tennis.

The discourse around tariffs has been “things will get more expensive” but I am here to tell you that I am knee deep in reporting on this subject and I strongly suspect that if super high tariffs endure, it will shift to *certain items cease to be available at any price*

In that conversation a while back between Bill Maher and Bill Burr, the latter bill in discussing the Gaza protests on college campuses simply said “I’m on the side of the kids.” I keep thinking about that simple line of moral clarity because I don’t care how few idiots there were in those crowds…

This has always been the GOP's strategy: 1) Cut taxes for the wealthy & corporations by claiming they'll pay for themselves. 2) Explode the deficit. 3) Demand cuts to vital programs that help millions. 4) Repeat. They're trying to get away with it again.

Some leftists need to grasp that when far right voters tell pollsters they want mass deportations and also wealth redistribution, that's not two separate parts of their brain talking. They're not secret socialists who are just kidding about the racism. They want economic benefits *for whites only*.

COVID didn't "turn out fine." Over 1 million people died in just the US. People are still dying. 100s of thousands of people are still dealing with the effects of Long COVID. And the entire country lost its shit and is still unwell. Tariffs will not "turn out fine." Effects will be experienced.

Understand that when they talk about Americans working in textile factories and assembling iPhones, they are not envisioning their own children in those jobs. They are envisioning a class of people over which they and their children will have more power, with less irksome pushback.

He's wiping out your life savings, destroying the Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid upon which you were promised you could depend, ending the medical research that would protect and prolong your life and that of your families & gutting your liberties...and he doesn't care about any of it.

Sotomayor is right. According to this Supreme Court, the US can now kidnap, detain, and fly legal immigrants and citizens to a foreign country's prison, even if it's a whoopsie. America, people. Freedom and stuff.

Can we stop calling these atrocities "deportations." These people sold to El Salvadorian prisons were not deported. Deportation is a process that did not take place. They were rounded up and removed with no process. They were kidnapped, not deported.

Let them know we're getting fed up

Here’s what RFK Jr. has done since a measles outbreak began which has killed 3 people so far: 1. Buried a CDC report showing need for vaccination 2. Recommended vitamin A, resulting in liver damage in kids 3. Defunded vaccination clinics nationally 4. Hired a fraud to manipulate vaccine data

this so perfectly encapsulates the problem it’s like a parody I would make

Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick says regular folks won't mind if one of their Social Security check doesn't show up. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent says Americans ready to retire don't care about "day-to-day" market fluctuations. These people are robber barons with no empathy for normal people.

Trump’s Justice Department is currently asking the Supreme Court for permission to build a deportation machine that can disappear anyone, citizen and immigrant alike, to a foreign prison forever, permanently extinguishing their constitutional rights with zero due process. slate.com/news-and-pol...

All I'll say is that people know where many of these people live.

By the way, both women who ran for president were right. They predicted this moment would happen. Says something very disturbing about our country that many still think they’re unrealistic or dramatic, when they were and are, in fact, correct.

Australia is not for the weak

Crypto has been essentially one massive grooming effort to cultivate finance bros into easy marks who think they’re winning when they’re losing their asses out from under them

If you asked most people in this country to come up with $1000 immediately, they couldn't. THIS is where the country has been for years.
