Thanks to Trump, America is no longer the world’s Uncle Sap Donald Trump is a transformative president. Like his transformations or loathe them, it is impossible not to recognise the impact they have had on the structure of American capitalism and the role of the US in the global economy. Elections matter, as the Democrats’ sage once informed us, and 2024 mattered more than most. Start with the most obvious: the transformation of the global trading system. America is no longer treated by its trading partners as a passive recipient of whatever

And that she was able to say all of that with a Vienna sausage and two olives in her mouth is even more impressive.

White House says Washington Commanders naming new stadium after Trump would be "beautiful" - CBS News Under a deal between the Commanders and D.C., the team will return to the nation's capital in a new stadium expected to cost nearly $4 billion.

On reflection, naming a stadium — where a violent, mysogynistic, indifferent and corrupt game is played by brain damaged thugs — after Trump is entirely appropriate www.cbsnews.com/news/washing...

Trump administration says states must "immediately undo any steps" to send full SNAP benefits - CBS News The U.S. Department of Agriculture, in a late-night Saturday memo, also threatened to impose financial penalties on states that did not comply with the government's new orders.

Ok, so everyone that ate with SNAP benefits this month should immediately shit in a box, pack it securely and send it to Mar a Lago. www.cbsnews.com/news/trump-a...

House Democrats back off another one of their red lines on ending the shutdown House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-N.Y.) on Friday signaled his openness to a proposed one-year extension of expiring Affordable Care Act tax credits as a way to end the government shutdown.

In other words, only the Democrats are willing to negotiate. apple.news/Ad6wKbhoLR1e...

MAGA singles are looking for love in Washington. It’s a challenge. The politics of trying to find a partner in an overwhelmingly liberal city can be tricky: “My partner can’t think I’m a fascist. That’s crazy.”

Sweetheart, thanks because the MAGA world is a fiction, filled by selfish, whinging, weak-willed fantasists apple.news/A8m_TvX00Ta-...

In other words, there will be no one there stopping any agreements or hogging photo ops. Seems productive.

Trump pardons baseball legend Darryl Strawberry Strawberry thanked Trump for "finalizing this part of my life, allowing me to be truly free and clean from all of my past."

Republicans, including 'cowardly' Schwarzenegger, take heat for lopsided loss on Prop. 50 California Republicans are blaming each other about their overwhelming loss on Proposition 50, the congressional redistricting ballot measure voters approved on Tuesday in an effort to counter President Trump's agenda.

I know Corfin Rankin quite well. I’m very happy she’s leading the state GOP. It makes it more likely they will continue to be ineffective. apple.news/AxxljcbkQTBe...

Holy crap, someone in government knows the difference between capitalism and mercantilism.

Raskin: "South Korea gave him some kind of golden crown or something, and then he lowered their tariffs. That is a monarchist mercantilism, that is not the American system."

I wonder of former Gov. Culo is going to follow through with his promise to move to Florida. (Yes, I know, but if he can consistently mispronounce Mamdani, I can do the same.)

They aren't going to. It's up to SCOTUS

It's OK to diss him because he dissed Trump

@repmikejohnson.bsky.social have you heard tye election results? Might want to bone up on them before you get asked and respond like an idiot.

I would stand with Karp on this if corporations didn’t layoff employees to boost stock prices.

Depends on if it was a lie. Maybe he's being honest and sees Trump circling the toilet.

Republican Rep. Darrell Issa of California also recently told Fox Business that Trump’s approval rating “couldn’t be higher!”
I never thought I would ever agree with Issa, but I totally agree that Trump's popularity could not possibly be higher than it is right now.

Looks like an iphone
