YES, CONGRESS COULD STOP THIS ECONOMIC SUICIDE AT ANYTIME. UNDER THE CONSTITUTION, "CONGRESS SHALL HAVE POWER TO LAY AND COLLECT TAXES, DUTIES, IMPOSTS & EXCISES." NOT THE PRESIDENT. CONGRESS COULD RECLAIM THAT POWER & END THIS INSANITY. BUT REPUBLICANS ARE FECKLESS COWARDS.

Fascism in action. So much for free speech. www.nytimes.com/2025/04/15/u...

While I agree that keeping your tech as long as it lasts is the better option, this article fails to notice that buying older tech at an inflated price is still a false choice. Welcome to the era of the $40K used ford fiesta and the $1k used phone. www.nytimes.com/2025/04/15/t...

That’s doge it support!

What do these corporations have in common? Netflix Ford Tesla T-Mobile Duke Energy DISH Network Metlife Dominion Energy United States Steel In recent years, they all paid their execs more than they paid in taxes. This is what a corporate-rigged system looks like.

"To announce that there must be NO CRITICISM of the PRESIDENT, or that we are to STAND BY the PRESIDENT, right or wrong, is not only UNPATRIOTIC and SERVILE, but MORALLY TREASONABLE to the AMERICAN PUBLIC." Theodore Roosevelt

Some of this is propaganda probably, but it makes one wonder: While the US is taking ignorance is bliss literally and intentionally defunding science, China has been doing everything they can to take the lead. www.scmp.com/news/china/s...

NEVER AGAIN!!! Never Republicans!! Idiots!!!!

It’s comforting to know that the tariffs that just cost me 30% of my retirement funds were at least based on some solid research. Pity that the author of that research says the government are dunces and got it totally wrong! www.nytimes.com/2025/04/07/o...

I think we can celebrate The American Revolution's 250th anniversary by having another one

I’ve had a look at my 401k after tariffs. The bad news: I’ll have to work until I am 95. The good news: my lifespan estimate has been extended. Now I must live long enough to dance on the grave of every single one of these mofos, and then some!

Might as well call Dracula to oversee blood banks! It’s no longer republican vs. democrat. It’s stupidity vs reason!

Friends, I know you're excited to try protesting, but under no circumstances should you ever sign up to attend one. I'm suspicious of any org asking people to put their name on a list that is easily accessible via warrant or may even be public. You can just show up day of.
