This is a meme that says Hey Pete Hegsethβ€”
The last time this country built an army of angry racists, they were called Confederates.
They lost.
If you want strength, build warriors.
If you want hate, expect defeat.

China Adds More than $400 Billion to GDP in Q1, Trump Loses $25 Billion In the first quarter, China’s economy added an estimated $420 billion in growth while the U.S. economy, amid a quirky downturn partly due to pre-tariff import surges, lost about $24 billion.

In the first quarter of this year China's economy grew by $420 billion, our economy shrank by $25 billion. cepr.net/publications... It's very MAGA!

Zuck just gave my Facebook wall 11 more days but won't let me log in to personally deal with it. People are posting for me, but I can't get in to approve new friends and block nazi trolls. Nor to post on various Democratic pages that I used to.

A tweet from Jake Sherman with Punchbowl News that reads:

🚨🚨BREAKING -- A new CBO analysis shows that several policies Republicans are considering for slashing Medicaid spending would lead to millions of people losing health insurance coverage.

The analysis, requested by Democrats, says that per capita caps for the Medicaid expansion population would save $225 billion in federal spending and result in 1.5 million more uninsured people by 2034. Blocking provider taxes could save $668 billion and lead 3.9 million to lose coverage, per CBO.

This is a damning confirmation of what we've been saying:

Republicans want to rip away healthcare from millions to fund more tax cuts for billionaires.

Hands. Off. Medicaid.

Mark Carney tells President Trump that Canada is 'not for sale' Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carey told President Donald Trump directly that Canada is "not for sale" as the two men met in the Oval Office.

Complicated and unusual election they had in Canada, but Carney went right out and did what Canadians voted for him to do.

He was protected from deportation by a legal settlement. Trump deported him anyway. Court documents, news reports and pleas from his family reveal new details about the 20-year-old Venezuelan man a judge ordered returned from El Salvador.

So, when this ends and accountability restarts, will Trump and his followers be estopped from pleading about any deals? That would be basic reciprocity.

Well yeah. First he fires any who are not white and male.

But in that group he sends away there are surely some good Democratic candidates. Not necessarily for national offices. But these people are administrators -- mayors, county executives, governors and such.
