I really think putting staggeringly dumb rich people who are also total jerks in charge of everything was a bad call.

Trump shrugged off the murder of Jamal Khashoggi this week by saying "things happen," an attitude towards violence that has huge implications for our country. @rosabrooks.bsky.social and @djrothkopf.bsky.social discuss and look for answers in our history:

Wyden Presses for Investigation Into JPMorgan Chase and Epstein
EPSTEIN BOMBSHELL: my staff is releasing a new report showing JPMorgan Chase executives – all the way to the top – enabled Epstein's sex trafficking operation. You're going to want to read this.

So, apparently, to our president, upholding your oath and calling for the military to support and obey the Constitution is...seditious behavior. But calling for members of Congress (who are also honored veterans) to be hanged because they are honoring the Constitution is...just fine.

Trump Called Epstein Right After 2016 Election, Brother Says
Jeffrey Epstein’s brother shed more light on how close Donald Trump was to the sex trafficker.
Trump has claimed he cut off contact with Epstein after the financier was convicted in 2009.
The truth is he rang his old “pal” in 2016, shortly after he won the presidential election, according to one of the sex trafficker’s closest confidants. trib.al/PFgrgut

This Deal Is Trump's--It Has Always Been Trump's
Hi All,
Just sent out this free piece. There was a weird and widely spread attempt in the media yesterday to create a fiction, that Trump's peace plan for Ukraine and Russia was a rogue operation by Steve Witkoff. That finally fell apart--and it’s important that it did. open.substack.com/pub/phillips...

Fox News poll: 76% of voters view the economy negatively. That’s worse than the 67% who felt that way in July.

Really? You're picking a fight you're not going to get w/ someone whose knowledge of the subject matter may be greater than you give him credit for. Nonetheless, I responded to you respectfully, am doing so again, and rather than blocking you will simply withdraw. Thanks for sharing your thoughts.

We do not want to go back to sham health insurance plans and denials
Obamacare isn’t perfect, but it’s better than what we had—and what the GOP proposes.
Please take the time to read this on healthcare, GOP lies and what might be done by my wise colleague and friend @normornstein.bsky.social. It's very smart and thoughtful. contrarian.substack.com/p/we-do-not-...

I'm really enjoying Ken Burns "The American Revolution." It's smart, well done & personally, history nerd that I am, I find it compelling. But I've got to say it is chilling to see the list of its funders, a bunch of whom have worked hard for years to undermine the work of our founders.

Donald Trump says he wants interest rates to come down – but he is refusing to release the data the Fed needs to do that.
Seems like he wants to hide bad jobs data.
And working families will keep paying the price.

The Golden Age of Assholes really is the perfect description. I worked in tech for most of my career until I was laid off/early retired last year and I am still suffering from PTSD from the last group of assholes I had to deal with. Humans suck, give me a good dog any day.

"Quiet, Piggy" and "Things Happen" are the distillation of Trump to his very essence. One manifests his vileness and misogyny. The other his dangerous amorality. They are a window into where his soul would be if he had one.
