What's baffling is how so many US corporations and elite institutions took Trump's election victory in 2024 as some kind of decisive and permanent shift in the national ethos, instead of a tentative and highly divisive outcome primed for huge overreach and backlash.

Well, that didn't take long. The big fat orange blob baby-man is driving the world economy into the hands of the Russians and the Chinese. 25 dimensional chess people.

Oh, I know the answer to this. Pick me. Pick me. The legacy media would definitely look away and hope that it doesn't happen to them. That's why the legacy media needs to die off and we need to support independent journalism.

These are the same fucking reporters who write "Democrats are weak" and "Democrats in Disarray" and now when we are aligned and we fight, we are supposed to simply slink away and ask nicely that Republicans don't hurt us.

Where The Hell Is Alex Acosta? They ignored the victims. Protected the enablers. And handed the narrative to partisan hacks. This isnโ€™t justice; itโ€™s cover-up cosplay from a Congress that thinks youโ€™re an idiot.

This is a very good question......

Trump and Abbottโ€™s cheating power grab in Texas is bullshit.

Texas Democrats are leading with strength while Republicans attack their state.

Will everyone quit and roll over? The law firms, media companies, universities, government employees. Will you all cling to what you have and hope you can just ride it out, Republic be damned? Shame on all of you who donโ€™t stand up, just remember we will never forget.

Is the Government Still Collecting Inflation Data? Well โ€ฆ Whether itโ€™s AI or Social Media, for me at least, the routine...

What Josh laid out here is more than just "a gut feeling". The methodology has changed and as a result, it seems reasonable to conclude that the data quality has worsened.

The depths of depravity that the MAGA cult will go to defend Trump is vividly illustrated by this clip, where Newsmax brings the brother of convicted child sex trafficker Ghislaine Maxwell on in primetime to trash one of the victims who is dead and call her a liar.

In my opinion, todayโ€™s Jobs Numbers were RIGGED in order to make the Republicans, and ME, look bad โ€” Just like when they had three great days around the 2024 Presidential Election, and then, those numbers were โ€œtaken awayโ€ on November 15, 2024, right after the Election, when the Jobs Numbers were massively revised DOWNWARD, making a correction of over 818,000 Jobs โ€” A TOTAL SCAM. Jerome โ€œToo Lateโ€ Powell is no better! But, the good news is, our Country is doing GREAT!

There is no covid without testing
There is no bad economy if we cook the books

Electing Trump in a free and fair election is one of the greatest own goals in human history

Well, yeah. It's called stagflation and we had it in the 1970's. And we are having it again. Economic growth slows, but inflation goes up because Trump is a moron and Republicans in Congress are feckless wimps.

Right after Trump took away health care from working families and food from hungry kids, heโ€™s building a lavish playground for his billionaire friends in the White House.
