Maybe everyone can see it now, but the world's richest people have tanked it all to restock assets and get liquid after years of illegally playing with funny money. They used "the wokeness" as a cudgel and it worked. The next Disney princess WILL be white, as we all eat beans under the highway.

thank you donald trump for your diligent work as you make the US a stagnant, backwater pariah state and playground for sociopathic tech oligarchs

Monstrously destructive, incoherent, ill-informed tariffs based on fabrications, imagined wrongs, discredited theories and ignorance of decades of evidence. And the real tragedy is that they will hurt working Americans more than anyone else.

Piper Sandler: “The tariffs came in higher/worse than we’d expected, so we are lowering our 2Q real GDP estimate from 0% to -1%. And given where the big tariff hikes are concentrated -- China, Vietnam, Taiwan, etc.-- the risks to consumer inflation are much higher than initially thought.”

WEDBUSH: “.. would characterize this slate of tariffs as ‘worse than the worst case scenario’ the Street was fearing. ..” [Ives]

Trump taxes are about to hit your local stores…

didn't realize that -- so a $200 billion tax increase on the good we import from China. That comes to $1,300 per household. Should make everyone happy

omfg the "ramp system" in D.C isn't due to FDR

Trump is currently blasting the trade deal with Canada and Mexico. You know, the one he negotiated in his first term.

taxing the f out of americans won't make the big 3 great again. they effed themselves with shittier products and greedy ceo's

omg shitler does not understand what vat is... we are so cooked

The Nazis didn't have chipper TV personalities to sell their atrocities.

Kill a white millionaire, get the death penalty. Kill two black protesters, get invited to CPAC to be celebrated.

she doesn't know of what she speaks... these kind of people never do

Trump's mouthpiece essentially says it's okay for him to ignore a judge's order because he's in charge.

This is the only appropriate response to Matt Taibbi.

Show some love to the CDC #FOIA staff who worked their butts off to get me these important documents a couple of weeks ago so the public could be informed about what was taking place behind the scenes. Their work, as well as their counterparts at NIH, FDA and HHS, is important and it matters.

A lot of Booker's staff clearly worked quite hard to prepare for this speech. He is continuing with a coherent presentation after ten hours and 19 minutes.

Insane to read a graph like this while remembering Elon's makes $8 million *a day* from government contracts which, of course, are not being cut. Anyway, taking away a few more rolls of Charmin should do the trick.

Hello he lied

If you’re upset about the chaos and corruption Trump is inflicting on your country—whether your focus is the nihilistic dismantling of government, the economy, our foreign relations, or his threats to the rule of law—please join the nationwide marches on April 5. Learn more here 👉 handsoff2025.com

Trump is privately warning CEOs of automakers not to hike prices when his tariffs hit. This blows up Trump's lies about the tariffs, because it shows he knows they'll push up costs in the US, and knows "other countries" don't pay them! New piece from me: newrepublic.com/article/1933...

Breaking: RFK Jr. has forced out PETER MARKS, the nation’s top vaccine regulator. In his resignation letter, obtained by the Post, Marks said he was willing to work with RFK Jr on his vaccine concerns — but said Kennedy wishes “subservient confirmation of his misinformation and lies.”

I know we are exhausted from the no really this meets the textbook definition of fascism conversation, but exhibit G. There is a way to resist this both from inside museums and from outside by collectively choosing to learn, archive, and protect the knowledge they want to erase.

Even if you accept the premise and decision, which I absolutely do not, it is the simplest thing to phone the visa holder, tell them their visa is revoked and say they have a month to leave the country. Accosting someone on the street like a kidnapping is just a spectacle of terror.

I see 0 problem here 🤷‍♀️

If you think what happened to Rumeysa Ozturk can't happen to you because you're a citizen and she's not, you are sorely mistaken. Ozturk was snatched off the street not for being a national security threat but for having a wrong opinion. If we don't put a stop to this, it's coming for all of us.

And don’t think for one minute this has anything to do with antisemitism or “protecting Jewish students.” That’s their excuse & it’s disgusting. And yes - this can happen to you too.

Susan Collins, is that you?

It’s not a war plan it’s an attack plan. It’s not rape it’s sexual abuse. If there’s not enough evidence to assure conviction, then it’s a hoax. Very tired of a decade of this dumb game, but glad to see them have a hard time playing it this time.

American Oversight is suing Pete Hegseth, Tulsi Gabbard, John Ratcliffe, Scott Bessent, Marco Rubio, and the US National Archives and Records Administration for violations of the Federal Records Act and Administrative Procedure Act. www.documentcloud.org/documents/25...

Yeah…Why does Pete Hegseth have a Russian email address?

This is the op-ed Rumeysa Ozturk co-wrote in 2024 criticizing the Tufts administration’s response to student demands for action regarding Gaza and Israel. It is unquestionably speech protected by the First Amendment. /1 www.tuftsdaily.com/article/2024...

As more information is revealed, it is clear that the cover-up is even worse than the crime. Every single person involved has no business being involved in our government. At minimum, there should be resignations. And prosecutions.

This is not going to end up being an outlier, folks. MAGA doesn't care if anything makes you sick including deadly pesticides. When oligarchs like Jeff Bezos say they are embracing Trump because he's anti-regulation, this is what they are talking about: No govt rules stopping bad stuff.

So, which is it? If this info wasn’t classified, that in itself would be a scandalous screw-up that must be explained. And if it was classified, then the Trump administration lied to Congress and to the American people.

Weird that such a powerful free speech warrior as Elon Musk seems unconcerned about people being plucked off the street for speech.

Being snatched off the street for your opinions. I'll say it again. We are deciding, right now, whether the aspirations we hold for this country are finished. Whether we're going to let these hoodlums and grifters throw what's left of the American idea into the garbage for their own profit and gain.

Trump’s Gestapo needs five people to arrest an itty-bitty female college student I didn’t see any identifying markers/badges All of the agents cover their faces so we can’t find out who they are In other countries, they would call this “the secret police”

Pete Hegseth is a f*cking liar. This is so clearly classified info he recklessly leaked that could’ve gotten our pilots killed. He needs to resign in disgrace immediately.

Crockett: Free speech is not about whatever it is that you all want somebody to say. And the idea that you want to shut down everybody that isn’t Fox News is bullshit

Hanlon’s Razor posits that we should “never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity.” But in light of certain recent developments — including the festering Signal-gate FUBAR — we may need to update that, don’t you think? open.substack.com/pub/charlies...

This is so genuinely dumb it defies parody

For the record, “I misremembered the presence of classified information” is a defense that my clients have deployed successfully … very rarely. If ever.
