We live in an episode of Veep

I suppose the primary problem with the US tax code is that low income, low wealth people pay proportionately far too much, while high income, high wealthy people pay vastly too little, which is what one might expect given the power voters have granted the establishment elite to write the tax code.

Moscow is getting hammered.. for the lack of a better word

Tax the Mellon like it's 1979!

While we’re on the subject of Ronald Reagan.

Ontario ran the tariff ad again during the World Series. It’s a damn good one.

Well I'm sure knocking down the White House to build a golden temple to his own vanity will help restore his economic reputation

This photo was taken from the Treasury Department which is a large federal building that normally blocks the view of the East Wing from 15th Street street. That’s why the White House ordered Treasury Department employees not to share photos of the demolition.

U.S. marshal and undocumented immigrant shot during ICE stop in Los Angeles, officials say

Both the U.S. marshal and the immigrant were shot by federal officers. You’d never know that from this headline.

The whole point of democracy is so one person's derangement does not become everybody's problem. It's social hygiene. The fact the richest men in the West are a mix of grotty twelve year olds and deranged apocalypse fanatics is a problem, and we should be honest about it.

The president of the United States is destroying constitutional government and literally calling himself a king and the pathetic journalistic and political class of this country is busy winding itself into circular meta-debates over the correct way to perform their reaction or nonreaction to it.

Front page of NYT on September 22, 2025, with large top-of-page photo of a Charlie Kirk memorial service, and the lead page-one story on the same topic.

Front page of today's NYT, Oct 19, with no story about the nationwide protests, and a "below the fold" montage of two photos, and a link to a story on page 23.

Those with sharp eyes might detect a subtle difference in NYT play last month of an event in one city, w 100,000+ attendees, versus play this morning of some 2500+ events w many millions of attendees, in all 50 states.

See if you can spot it! /s

Then you can find today's story on p A23

The magats are definitely the Cult of Perpetual Stupidly.

America-hating Antifa showing up for a *second* time today.

The 400 richest Americans are now worth a record $6.6 trillion, after getting $1.2 trillion richer over the past year alone.

Meanwhile, the rest of the country is getting squeezed by tariffs and high prices for groceries, utilities, and health care.

The system is broken.

It is estimated that early 7 million people took part in demonstrations across more than 2,700 cities and towns making it one of the largest single-day nationwide protests in U.S. history. Scenes from Chicago. #3E #NoKings #50501Movement #indivisible #wearetheflood

Donald Trump just posted this video on Truth Social

Did you witness anybody snapping their fingers or calling for trigger warnings at a No Kings rally? CBS News wants to hear your story.

by Bari Weiss

A lot of centrist commentators who genuinely got worked up about the unforgivably insulting nature of "cling to guns and religion" or "basket of deplorables" are weirdly silent about Trump portraying himself as literally shitting on American cities

Donald Trump is not just the most immature, insecure, stupid person to ever become president; he is the most immature, insecure, stupid person to ever become famous.

Naturlich.

I've been fighting this shit for more than three decades.It is just stupid lies that they can't defend, but they control all the major media outlets, so they never have to.

Almost like we founded the entire country on opposing this exact sentence.

SCOTUS conservative justices say you can engage in racial profiling in immigration stops but can’t consider race under Voting Rights Act to remedy centuries of racial discrimination

It's a reality TV presidency. Of course they want a film crew to show off ICE harassing citizens. They want to make sure everyone sees it so MAGA can cheer, and everyone else will be afraid. The optics are more important to them than the reality.

oh. right.

So fucking nuts….

If this is happening at the Centre for Disease Control and military troops are going to foodbanks, imagine the condition US government agencies are in that are tasked with managing financial market risks
