The tariff debacle has no more to do with wanting to return manufacturing to the US than his attacks on universities have to do with sincere concerns about antisemitism. These are mere pretexts to hide darker agendas of greed and grievance, power plays and corruption.

Booker: For people with 401(k) accounts and retirement savings, they’ve lost thousands. I’ve been hearing from people who had hoped to retire this year after working 25, 30, or even 35 years, but now they don’t think they have enough money because he’s taken $6 trillion overall out of the markets.

1) Fox News is for real not showing stock-market ticker during this week's collapse. 2) Its economic news is "strong jobs report." 3) Every time I've checked in today, the coverage has been "illegal immigrants committing new crimes." This is state propaganda, on a par with North Korea or PRC.

If you think this can’t happen, remember that of the 125,000 Japanese Americans who were interned during WWII for years without charge or trial, two-thirds were U.S. citizens. Including me.

Senator Jim Banks (R) isn’t sorry he told a fired federal worker “he probably deserved it”. He went on to say the worker was “complaining about losing a left-wing woke job in the federal government that should have never been a job to begin with”. The job was helping people with disabilities.

What you see happening to our economy and constitution is the result of a conspiracy theorist huckster/ sexual abuser POTUS hawking $5M “gold cards” while he shoots America in the face. That same huckster puts idiot loyalists in charge of our institutions. $6.6T in value lost. Our country savaged.

There are 33m companies in the USA. Only 21k employe 500 or more. And they only make up 23% of workers. Trump and Elon are ignoring the more than 32m entrepreneurs that can't afford to build a new factory or pay tariffs or absorb cancelled contracts.

For Americans who didn’t get the joy of living through the Truss/Kwarteng budget, this is the point where the government starts to call the stock market left-wing and/or woke.

Wisconsin—ignore the polls & get your ass to the voting booth on Tuesday. Elon Musk is dumping millions to turn out a group that usually stays home—voters that the pollsters didn’t account for. Don’t let the richest man on Earth buy your state to serve his own interests. Show up and shut him down.👀

Right-wing YouTuber Tim Pool has made it to the White House pool — someone from his “Timcast” channel will be part of today’s pool duty covering the president. Last year, DOJ revealed Pool was receiving millions of dollars from the Russian gov. Pool says he didn’t know where it was coming from.
