“.. His conclusion is very stark: not just that an economy already at stall speed will fall into recession as both the data-center and wealth effects plateau, but that they’ll reverse, just as in the dot-com bubble did ..”

No 'good' deed for Donald Trump goes unpunished. If you think you can play with the Donald, you are likely mistaken.

*by good of course we mean good or apparently good for Trump, not good in some positive way.

And that's usually the case with people who supposedly turned. They were always that way. We need to do a better job assessing people before it is too late.

Michael Cohen spent years close to Donald Trump and to this day Michael has still not figured out that there came a time early in the 2016 campaign that Donald was in it to win it by any means necessary.

Just an honest bloke advancing his vision, thanks WaPo

Ever-expanding corporate media loves hiding behind Donald Trump as they hone their operations to project the Republican agenda and censor all else.
There will be a time when Donald Trump is gone but these companies will continue their same agenda of full spectrum dominance and reactionary policies.

One Wrong Word: Nine Months Into Autocracy

🧵One Wrong Word:
Nine Months Into Autocracy

We’re nine months into Trump’s second term, and we’ve hit the point where one wrong word can get you yanked off the air. open.substack.com/pub/thecycle...

There are actual liberal and progressive information sources out there. ABC is a corporate mouthpiece. Let's find better sources and abandon all of these conglomerates.

Try this for example: www.progressivevoices.com

This grotesque censorship isn't just Donald Trump and people caving to pressure. This is a cabal of giant media corporations getting what they want. Corporate media has always been censored. Now they get to censor more and blame Donald.

"To underscore how soaked in bad faith this whole enterprise was, as Rolling Stone reported on Wednesday night, multiple ABC and Disney execs knew that Kimmel hadn’t said anything over the line, and had not actually said what those on the MAGA right had accused him of saying."

The key problem with this statement is that it fails to hold corporate media responsible at all. Everything is Donald Trump.
Democrats need to understand finally that corporate media is not fair and certainly not on their side and take it on directly.
Corporate media brought Donald Trump to power.

So much talk about who is pressuring whom and who is caving to whom. But really, this is all one big corporate agenda and its cohorts cosplaying for the public. And that includes ABC and Disney.

In 2018, there was record turnout for Republicans. In 2022, that record was broken.
In 2020, there was record turnout for Republicans. In 2024, that record was broken.
Turnout for Republicans is at its all time high.

MSM is serving its purpose. What happened yesterday is known by all. People who don't pay much attention will surely know that a Republican was killed.

How many people remember Melissa Hortman, an actual official killed in the late spring?

{Book 1} Proof of Devilry: The Crimes of Donald Trump, Ghislaine Maxwell, and Jeffrey Epstein The available evidence places Trump, Epstein, and Maxwell at the heart of a multistate and multinational child sex-, sex- and human-trafficking ring whose discovery could change the course of history.

(🚨) In honor of Rep. Comer—congressional agent for adjudicated rapist Donald Trump—falsely claiming that Trump hasn’t been mentioned in the Epstein Scandal, I’m making the first 200 pages of PROOF OF DEVILRY: THE CRIMES OF DONALD TRUMP, GHISLAINE MAXWELL, and JEFFREY EPSTEIN free to all:

Listen as @genefortexas.bsky.social tries to warn Americans they are running out of time.

“Putin would eat you for lunch.”

Today, exactly that happened.

But you have to wait through all the commercials which are longer than the program.

David Muir: “Tonight as we come on the air, a dangerous virus breaking out in at least one state… We’ll tell you *which* state if you can guess which number I’m thinking of between one and 500,000.”

‪TBC, by popular vote, I mean the national popular vote for House races. The national House vote should determine number of seats.

This would not solve all the problems of gerrymandering, but it would solve the most egregious problem of extra seats for a party.

You can't indict a man for throwing a ham sandwich, notwithstanding that the sandwich itself could be indicted.

Empire comes home.

As many predicted decades ago.

Then, keep flipping each closest seat until the number of seats held by Dems is within the percentage of one seat.

In the end, Dems hold 220 seats or 50.57%. Stop flipping, we are within one seat percent of popular vote percent, 50.60.

This would make gerrymandering extra seats *impossible*.
/3

So take the closest race won by a Republican and flip it to the Democrat. That would bring Dems to 202 or 46.44%.

Flip another seat: 203 or 46.67% seats
another: 204 or 46.90%
another: 205 or 47.12%
