Trump news at a glance: layoffs for federal workers begin and president threatens China with tariffs President suggests layoffs will be ‘a lot’ and in Democrat areas as unions for federal workers take the matter to court – key US politics stories from 10 October at a glance

This is classic "Trumpnomics": first fire a bunch of people, then start a trade war. 🤦‍♂️ He probably thinks chaos itself is a "strategy," right?

The Epitome of EVIL

Posted by Mike Pence’s former Chief of Staff.

For One Day at Least, Long Live the King King Charles III shows us—but, really, congressional Republicans—what actual accountability looks like when it comes to Jeffrey Epstein.

"No Kings! Not then! Not now! But you can be a good republican and still give a foreign king credit where credit is due. So let me offer an American tip of the hat to King Charles III."

The Epitome of EVIL

Truly frightening 😨

Larry Bud Melman?

Happy Halloween from the scariest creatures ever.

I think so too

a woman in a silver dress is walking with a caption that says never gonna get it ALT: a woman in a silver dress is walking with a caption that says never gonna get it

WHAT THE HELL is his stupid obsession about getting that?

Wait, I think you just blew my mind.

The President of the United States is so upset about his failed campaign for a Nobel Prize that he's now trying to claim someone else's prize as his own.

Pathetic.

I understand, we have new neighbours here in New Brunswick, Canada. Americans are flocking in as fast as they can get a work visa, and businesses are helping Americans obtain visas to come here to live and work. It's wild!

This is Trump’s economy, the stock market bubble is likely to burst 💥 soon.

Recent American layoffs are freaking brutal!!!

📌 Listened to this and literally
tossed my cookies 🤮 Alex

I wanted to offer some thoughts on the Gates climate memo that has been circulating this week. While I can't directly speak for others, I can say that my own response is one of dismay & deep frustration (and that this view is shared by many climate/Earth scientists). [1/n]

Money launderers must stick together.

Open, brazen corruption.

Trump pardoned a crypto tycoon convicted of helping terrorists & child sex traffickers launder 💰 — in exchange for personal enrichment.

Yet everyone who screamed about Hunter Biden is silent. @MarshaBlackburn @RepTimBurchett www.wsj.com/finance/curr...

Trump L’œil: The White House Ballroom, MAGA Aesthetics, and the Meanings of Trump’s Newest Building Project Trump, the tacky and chronically bankrupt real estate developer, and Hitler, the failed artist who was too bad at math to try his hand at architecture school, are alike in at least these ways. A love ...

The under-construction White House ballroom is a symbol of the current regime's contempt for America, democracy, and the founding notion that We the People are sovereign, yes. But as @aselrod.bsky.social aptly describes, it's also "Trump’s garish warehouse of bribery."

This was true in October 2016 when the Washington Post editorial board posted it, and it has been proven true every day since.

Cuomo hasn't condemned bigoted attacks on Mamdani. In 1977 race, his father took another approach As New York City's mayor's race enters its final stretch, there are echoes and contrasts to another famously bitter city election in 1977.

Jake asked Cuomo about his ongoing failure to live up to his father's ethical standards, which I'm sure didn't push any buttons or anything.
