Most accurate description. It's very bad for China, but it is catastrophic for the US. And Xi doesn't have to worry about elections. GOP politicians do. #FreeTaiwan

According to Benjamin Netanyahu it is impossible for Israel to defend itself without conducting genocide. No, seriously. Look it up. So support for Netanyahu is support for genocide; always. Of course he's really doing it to steal Palestine's natural gas reserves. Look that up too. #Gaza

prosperity ahead

Ted Cruz wants to run for president? Did he finally get approval for that charisma transplant?

The real reason Trump wants mass deportations was just revealed: The want to privatize ICE's logistics. So they created a problem (massive numbers of migrants that need to be moved) and then they'll "solve" it with tax payer's money. With a health kickback to Trump, of course. #Trump #News #ICE

Let's take this a step further. A few days ago there was a fake story that Trump would pause his tariffs. The market spiked, then crashed again when the fake was exposed. But Trump looked at that and realized that he could get the same market "bump" by announcing a pause. #News #Trump #Tariffs

Pretty good summary I feel. Just add the fact that he also did massive insider trading as a side effect.

We're all on the same page that Netanyahu is planning to ethnically-cleanse Gaza, and steal the land because he wants the billions of dollars in natural gas reserves that the Palestinians own? Hamas' terrorism was just the pretext. Genocide for profit. #Gaza #Genocide unctad.org/news/unreali...

The upward redistribution of wealth over the past 50 years has shifted $80 trillion from the bottom 90% of Americans to the top 1%.  That’s $80 trillion that would have gone into the paychecks of the working class. The greatest trick of all is trickle-down economics.

I think Trump tweeted "now is a great time to buy" in order to get plausible deniability. He'd already told his rich buddies that he was going to reverse course but that leaves obvious signs of insider trading. So he made the tweet and now they can claim it's the reason they bought in. #Tariffs

The insiders seem to have had a 20min warning before the public

Members of Congress should never be allowed to trade stocks. Period.

Let's say Trump does his annual physical exam and they find out that he is deathly ill. For any other president news like that would cause the market to go down; because of the uncertainty. But for Trump it would probably shoot through the stratosphere.

What if the market for online content creation crashes because no one has any money to use to subscribe to Patreon? What will we do for content then!? #Tariffs #YouTube #Twitch #Patreon

When that #MAGA influencer says "when you lose money you don't lose anything" he's speaking the truth: for himself. He's rich. He can lose tons of money and it won't make any difference to his quality of life. And he's so ignorant and privileged that he thinks everyone lives like that. #Tariffs

If you're looking for a deeper "strategy" in Trump's tariffs here it is: 1. He's giving exemptions to organisations and countries who bribe him. 2. Before the tariff announcement he "shorted" a crapload of stock in ways we'll never hear about. Allegedly. #Trump #News #Tariffs

Microsoft has sacked Ibtihal Aboussad and Vaniya Agrawal after they disrupted the company’s 50th-anniversary event in protest against its ties with the Israeli military, reports the Associated Press news agency. 🔴 LIVE updates: aje.io/4wgn3k

That sadness that Republicans have had since the tariff announcement? It's the realization that you're a coward. All your life you've told yourself that you'd be willing to fight for your country. But Trump is hurting it immensely, and you're too scared to do anything. #News #Trump #MAGA #Coward

HANK TOUGH 🔥👊🇺🇸
