I see tomorrow is Friday.

Is Friday going a tariff day, or a some-tariffs day, or a no-tariffs day?

Or will it be some other kind of day, like an annex-Greenland day, or a Hannibal-Lecter-wants-to-have-you-for-dinner day, or an Arnold-Palmer-size day, or something else?

I just can’t keep track.

🚨 BREAKING: This is beyond outrageous. Elon Musk, his cranky mother Maye, and one of his young kids were chauffeured in Air Force One and Marine One—straight to the White House, where they’re apparently staying.

WTF is going on? It goes without saying, this is not normal. 🙄

This is unheard of in American history. Absolutely insane in peace time.

DOGE recommended firing workers at:

-FDA, which oversees Neuralink

-FAA, which oversees SpaceX

-USAID, which probed Starlink

-CFPB, which oversees Tesla's financing arm and a potential payment platform on X.

"Conflict of interest" is a severe understatement.

A friend from the VA just sent this and asked me to share. PMDB is Prevention and Management of Disruptive Behavior in the workplace. THIS is the real war against women: being forced to say there are only 2 genders but not being allowed to mention 96% of violence is perpetrated by men.

You wouldn't dismantle the agency that protects consumers for corporate abuse and scams unless you wanted your rich buddies to be able to abuse and scam consumers.

Listen to Secretary Pete. And remember, these are our funds. These are our courts. And these are our streets.

A NYT editorial headline with a black background and white text. The headline reads: 'Trump’s Shameful Campaign Against Transgender Americans,' published by 'The Editorial Board' under the 'Opinion' section. The publication date and time are February 9, 2025, at 6:00 a.m. ET."

Now the New York Times wants to act appalled at transphobia they helped normalize.

I am going to become the joker.
