White House Economic Advisor Hassett says shutdown could end this week
20.10.2025 13:04 β π 1 π 2 π¬ 15 π 2Anybody watching Squark Box today would think that America is a one party dictatorship.
Not one single Democratic viewpoint amongst three hours of trump worshipping!
Another trump moment on kirk's birthday...
"Charlie was unstoppable,,,"
Clearly he wasn't!
So trump has paused a war in a country the same size as Wales.
Now, Russia...
Trump reckons the Tiktok deadline is now Dec 16th.
Trump says President Xi accepted the deal on a phone call.
President Xi has made no announcement to this effect.
Trump has valued the US Tiktok arm at $14 billion.
The markets value it at $30-40 billion.
SOMETHING STINKS!
Hilarious Machado winning the Nobel Peace Prize,
for being everything that trump isn't!
Bless her and her efforts against dictatorship.
Poor old Joe Kernen will be in full hair on fire mode,
as his dear leader loses out on something Joe has worked hard at promoting every minute of his waking day!
Poor old CNBC"s Joe Kernen.
Got himself into a right twist.
Never a week goes by when he doesn't demean the value of the Nobel Peace Prize,
His thesis,
Barack winning it makes the value worthless.
yet it's eating him up that trump HASN'T won it.
knowing how much his dear leader craves the prestige!
I am worried about ne.
Just seen MTG on CNN.
She actually sounded like a normal human being.
Long may it last!!!

which had record crop this year,
but because of trumps ridiculous import taxes,
has not sold so much as a bushel.
Instead
within days of trump putting 50% consumer tax on Brazilian coffee,
the Brazilian farmers sold the entire year's soya crop to China!

Unbelievable the amount of unpaid work that is done in Japanese office's.
Japanese men spend all day rushing to or from work,
& then getting really drunk,
falling asleep on the pavement
or staying in a capsule hotel.
Well and truly boring!
The two-party system may be flawed, but they are not equally compromised. One still believes in democracy; the other embraces authoritarianism. Pretending theyβre the same only accelerates the collapse of whatβs left of our republic
06.10.2025 12:26 β π 2 π 1 π¬ 1 π 0Oh I agree, and I certainly don't think they are the same.
Sometimes too similar.
But my argument is that no other modern democracy has only two parties, which cannot possibly cater to a wide range of beliefs or ideals.
Multi party and coalition is the best check and balance.
Snipers!

As with most things,
trump don't get law and order.
To solve a problem only he sees,
trump takes the most unqualified, unfit, racist thugs he can find,
give them a fancy uniform,
jackboots and a shiny badge,
and sets them loose on the streets to intimidate fellow Americans...
Brilliant idea?
On which planet?

colour me shocked.
50% extra taxes are banged on American imports,
and the prices go up?
I am truly amazed!
Who'd have thought it?
Things ARE gonna get worse, as trump fools himself and others that gdp growth is 3.8%,
when the REAL number for the YEAR is 2%.
Something is about to break!
Soon!

How long are Europeans gonna stand around waiting for putins pet in the White House to do something?
The longer everyone talks about "after" the war,
the further away that looks.
Putin makes feints into NATO territory and basically nothing happens.
Time for positive action!
Alpha men love strip joints, porn , happy ending massage parlors and Hooters, because the women are paid to be nice to them, and it makes them feel like men. I have a lot respect for the women who work at these jobs, making a living lying to suckers.

Trump killed more Americans than Bin Laden.
