If oil prices spike, working families feel it first at the pump, at the store, everywhere. Dismissing those concerns as foolish ignores real economic pain.

A year ago we were supposed to be getting $2,000 rebate checks, DOGE was going to find $2 trillion in waste to balance the budget, we were going to pay no income taxes because tariffs would pay for everything, gas and home electric bills would be cut in half, and no new wars.

Why Tesla "Robotaxis" Won't Be Driverless For Another 3 Years Deep dive into FSD crash data shows incidents becoming more dangerous for Tesla owners, while Tesla's Austin robotaxis already crash 4x more frequently than human drivers.

Why Tesla robotaxis can't go driverless:

-4x more likely to crash vs humans
-3x more likely to cause an injury crash vs humans
-FSD knowingly runs red lights/drives the wrong way
-Tesla can't explain why
-Regulatory strangle: 1000s of new FSD crashes found

Trump’s Weekend Was Ruined: World Leader Slams His Racist Policies, Former Presidents Indict His Record, and Minnesota Outplays Him Plus, a perjury investigation into Noem, and Hakeem Jeffries calls for regime change

World leader exposes Trump's racist "white genocide" propaganda in brutal NYT interview.

Add Obama, Biden & Clinton indicting his record at Rev. Jesse Jackson's memorial + perjury probe on Kristi Noem. This piece ruins his weekend β€” and it's glorious.

Must-read:

It could not be more obvious that the president does not care about US service members and in fact regards their deaths as mere political inconveniences. He has more sympathy for Putin than Americans who died because he decided to wage illegal war. Just listen to him.

This is *nothing* dignified about wearing a cheap baseball cap that promotes yourself to the otherwise solemn ceremony to receive the bodies of the troops you had killed to distract from your bad economy and rampant pedophilia.

For those who have forgotten the past 40 years:

Tax cuts for the rich
...don’t trickle down

Boosting military spending
...doesn’t bring peace

Slashing regulations
...doesn’t create jobs

Folks, we’ve seen this all before.

A thing people don't understand about tarot is that you have to see the cards in the world around you & your life. It sounds simple, right? But you have to carry them with you, fit them into life, not just read them. Anyone can lay out cards & read. You really have to let them get in you.

Reverend Jesse Jackson called on each of us to be heralds of change, to be messengers of hope; to step forward and say β€œSend me” wherever we have a chance to make an impact.

How fortunate we were that Jesse Jackson answered that call. What a great debt we owe to him.

Oil up by $12 a barrel in less than 12 hours.

Gas prices skyrocketing.

Almost 100,000 jobs lost last month.

Another war in the Middle East.

Are we great again yet?

I don't believe that for a minute. They have, and use the latest real time GPS data. It was a targeted direct hit.

Hegseth said they won't follow "stupid rules of engagement." They don't care who they kill. Schools, hospitals, apartment buildings are fair game.

The Department of Justice has sued 30 states and DC for access to their unreacted sensitive voter data. My law firm is fighting them in all 30 cases.

We are dedicating so many resources because these are the most important legal fights and the future of free and fair elections is at stake.

DHS nominee Markwayne Mullin is one of the most active stock-traders in the Senate β€” and violated the STOCK Act against insider trading as recently as last August.

He currently holds stock in L3Harris, which has millions in contracts with ICE and FEMA.

The grift continues.

Black and white photo of four kittens spilling out of a basket that seems to be partially full of sticks or vines or something. They’re all short haired, and there is a black haired tuxedo, two tabbies, and what looks like a white and calico. Two of them look remarkably grumpy, and the other two seemed kind of blank and possibly confused.

Historians agree that the real Pandora’s Box was likely a basket of grumpy kittens. Postcard from my collection, mailed 1904.

We can throw another $500,000,000,000 at the Pentagon this year and spend $1,000,000,000/day on a wholly useless war, but we can't afford to hire doctors and nurses to take care of our veterans? The United States is such an irresponsible, messed up country right now.

He seems pretty sensitive whenever someone confronts him with evidence that Putin might not be our friend. Even when Fox brings it up.

Obama: "We are living in a time where it can be hard to hope. Each day we wake up to some new assault on our democratic institutions. Another setback to the idea of the rule of law ... but this man - Rev. Jesse Jackson - inspires us to take a harder path ... bc if we don't step up, nobody else will"
