Donald Trump has made himself—and by extension, us—the laughing stock of the world.

The chickens haven't really come home to roost yet (everything is about to double in price, tourists will no longer come to the U.S., much worse unintended consequences we don't have the imagination to conceive of) and people fucking hate this shit, generally loathe what's going on. Go on offense.

Right, because Grandma is on X. This is corruption, plain and simple.

Plainclothes agents. Trying to question elementary-aged kids. And lying that they had parents permission to do so.

The people who architected the financial and constitutional collapse of this country, for no reason than to torture immigrants on camera for likes and shares, should pay the penalty for their treason

Here’s where we’re headed next: 1. Record number of S&P 500 companies pull full-year earnings guidance. 2. “Jay Powell is artificially costing us trillions of dollars with high interest rates, he must be fired.” 3. “Beautiful phone call with my friend President Xi, we’re making a deal.”

We’ve reached the point where some of our citizens may need to seek asylum from us.

yeah man, please make my 85 year old great aunt prove her citizenship to vote in rural georgia, this definitely isn’t reminiscent of anything in the american past

Yooooooo

Bro VIX is over 40 again we are so cooked lmao. This market is honestly incredible.

“He made 2.5 million today and he made $900 million. That’s not bad.” Sounds like market manipulation to me. That’s bad.

Trying to make sense of today's tariff news. There's some big news, some small news, and some easy-to-misinterpret news. So let's chat.

Not much to investigate lol

You set the house on fire, watched it burn, and then lost your nerve and put it out. You now have a partially burned house. Great job.

So when he reverses the tariffs like today, are we no longer men?

Senator Adam Schiff has said that he is going to be investigating whether anyone in DC was insider trading based on tariff policy.

Trump: [slams dick in car door] Global markets: [tank] Trump: [opens car door] MAGA: masterful gambit, sir!

Wow it would be really great if someone in Congress just mentioned that he doesn’t have the power to constantly play with tariffs via posts on social media because it’s an enumerated power of Congress

Starting to think that we should sort out a general agreement on trade and tariffs, perhaps housed under some sort of world trade organization. Let's keep the region strong with some kind of of north american free trade agreement. Perhaps a trans pacific partnership could soften China's influence.

markets soar as investors realize that mommy didn't actually disappear, she was just hiding behind her hands

You all said Mr. President would fully shit his pants but he only shit 3/4 of his pants. You all look pretty stupid now, don’t you?

Good morning. A reminder that historically when the US has wanted to punish other countries, it imposed sanctions on them, cutting their people off from global trade, hoping to create enough economic havoc that they rein in their leaders. Trump has imposed economic sanctions on the American people.

We found the government “waste, fraud, and abuse”.

I am convinced a major factor in the tariff disaster is that Trump has so consistently been met with cowardice and capitulation from every quarter in American politics that he imagined other countries would just as easily fold to bullying.

really feel like writing something on how steep tariffs may destroy restaurants that depend on imported ingredients to replicate non-American flavors—and thus spark a movement toward more conservative, blander food scenes throughout the US

Eight people in South Sudan, including five children, died on a three-hour walk to seek medical treatment for cholera after US aid cuts forced local health services to close, the UK-based charity Save the Children said reut.rs/3E9kB27

Guys... We did a whole movie about why you shouldn't do this because it is bad. A whole film! Beloved American superstar Tom Cruise was in it and everything.

The logic of filling in public swimming pools with dirt or cement instead of racially integrating them, applied to the whole country

Trump admin officials have told some U.S. gov employees that Elon Musk's DOGE team of "technologists" is using artificial intelligence to surveil at least one fed agency’s communications for hostility to President Trump and his agenda, said two people with knowledge of the matter.

I'm not kidding that any Dem who wants to run in 2028 should get out ahead of this and loudly say if El Salvador puts American citizens in Trump's gulag we'll fucking invade.

I know this is basic politician stuff, but I am so envious of the vibes.

Really depressing that in one life time the US went from liberating concentration camps to sending its own citizens to them.
