Look at the market right now and think about the other things the President has the ability to act recklessly and idiotically with (like the military). This stock crash is bad, but he can do far worse if his party doesnโ€™t stop him. Itโ€™s impeachment and removal time, for the safety of the world.

The entire world are the passengers on the plane thatโ€™s halfway somewhere awesome and Trump is the asshole who wonโ€™t stop vaping and makes us all turn around and go back where we started.

Happening right now:

ABC, BBC, CBS, CNN, WSJ, NBC, NY Times, NY Post, etc.: Trump has crashed the stock market and our allies are retaliating

Fox News: Everything is awesome and going exactly as Daddy planned

Sigh.

2025 as a movie pitch: Someone steps on the wrong butterfly and we end up in a timeline where both Biff and George McFly winโ€ฆ and the rest of us lose.

Putin has defied Trump once again โ€“ and paid no price Russian leader has played his familiar trick of agreeing to something that binds Ukraineโ€™s hands much more tightly than his own

Trump is Putinโ€™s bitch.

Trump selects a new Tesla on White House driveway to show support for Elon Musk President Donald Trump selected a shiny red Tesla on the White House driveway as he showed support for Elon Musk's electric automaker.

This has to be a joke, you say? Nope. Itโ€™s real. We are all in their shitty reality show now. apnews.com/article/trum...

Homeland Security appoints new leadership at ICE amid faltering deportation push Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem appointed new leadership at U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement on Sunday as the agency struggles to meet President Donald Trump's stated goal of massive deportation operations aimed at immigrants in the U.S. illegally.

If this is how effective they are with their top priorities, I expect very little to go well in these next 3.9 years.

After Amy Gleasonโ€™s sudden rise to prominence, mystery surrounds DOGE acting administrator Gleasonย previouslyย worked as a relatively low-profile health care data cruncher, inspired by her daughterโ€™s rare disease. Her working relationship with Elon Musk is unclear.

Maybe there is a nugget of a worthy idea and even some good people inside the DOGE machine but it is being ruined by Trump (who has proven to be terrible at business) and Musk (whoโ€™s high a f@$& on ketamine all the time)?

How many kids would this dope have if he wasnโ€™t born rich? Iโ€™m guessing zero. Possibly negative. Ovaries within a mile would instinctively shut down when he opened his mouth.

Top answers: 1) Considered other job options, 2) Called a lawyer, 3) Posted Tesla for sale, 4) Called representatives, 5) Laughed.

It was heartening to hear so many determined, resistant voices at the MA Statehouse today, refusing to bow to a self-proclaimed king.

Disagree. Those supposedly-super-magic outdoorsy towels that they sell for like $50 at EMS and REI are worse. They donโ€™t work and they make my neurodivergence gag.

Two truths to ponder today. 1) It is terrible that Nancy Mace was sexually assaulted and brave of her to speak up. 2) Her past words and actions show that she is an ignorant, transphobic, nutjob who likes to hurt others, which probably makes people less likely to support her in this difficult time.

Religious groups, like Christians, must be BIG MAD that Trump and Musk are killing USAID, right?

The worldโ€™s wealthiest man, unelected to any office, has been given access to the federal payment system by the new administration. Let that sink in.

Trump Immediately Blames D.C. Air Crash on Biden Administration and DEI: They Said FAA Was โ€˜Too White!โ€™ President Donald Trump wasted no time in blaming the Biden Administration and "DEI" for the deadly Washington DC air crash that took 67 lives.

Helicopter crashes into plane and Trump blames non-white people at the FAA. Even the KKK was like โ€œdude, we like the energy, but thatโ€™s kind of a stretchโ€ฆโ€ www.mediaite.com/news/trump-i...

White House: Youโ€™re going to have to die for a second while we clarify our funding freeze Two vague memos, a sidestepping new press secretary, and real-life consequences.

Week Two of the Trump administration: "You're going to have to die for a second while we fix our funding freeze."

And there you have it. Naive young voters turned on the Democratic Party to punish them for not being anti-Israeli enough. Now the guy they helped elect says heโ€™d like to โ€œclean outโ€ Gaza. Not very anti-Israeli of him!

I wonder if someone could coax Trump to use his power of insane, flip decision making and proclamation to do something weird but useful, not regressive and dumb, like have the US adopt the metric system? All this other dumb crap is just going to be reversed by smarter people in 4 years.

What a sick flex. This late stage capitalism is truly gross.
