Conservatism is a great place for the privileged to hide their thin skin.

The looming Trumpcession Orange man bad (for the economy).

"Most presidents do not want to suffer Jimmy Carter’s fate and so attempt to avoid massive unemployment, high inflation, and especially the combination of the two. Trump, in contrast, has been speedrunning the country toward stagflation." — @nberlat.bsky.social

This is funny. He will continue to be angry about losing the bigger package.

Loss aversion is a powerful force.

💯.

To be directed by the estate of Jeff Epstein?

They have the names and the pictures and the films. They want it all to go away.

“Harvard President Garber Tells Faculty He Is Not Considering a $500 Million Deal With Trump”

the author calling Ghislaine “madam maxwell” makes clear how widely understood all of this was

He has to do outrageous things to get people to forget he buried the Epstein evidence because it showed how guilty he is.

Hope in a bottle is the easiest scam out there, and this is the golden age of snake oil salesman.

Trump’s Efforts to Control Information Echo an Authoritarian Playbook

NYT's Peter Baker: "History is filled with examples of leaders seeking to stifle unwelcome information. The Soviets falsified data to make their economy look stronger than it was. The Chinese have long been suspected of doing the same..." www.nytimes.com/2025/08/03/u...

It is funny how Alan Dershowitz is filming the scene, but spent so much time making sure all the Epstein images and films were covered up.

In their defense, the authors of the Constitution could never have predicted that American voters would be this stupid.

Single biggest middle class tax increase ever

Being bamboozled by outsiders from inside the house is not better.

Too true?

Two words: Kraft Dinner. Canada should never have fallen for that.

Not every idea is good.

wonder what happened

I don’t know who needs to hear this, but when you openly try to rig elections, you’re admitting that you can’t win unless you cheat.

COVID Contrarians Are Wrong About Sweden Trying to ‘let it rip’ in early 2020 was a disaster.

"This implied notion that Sweden’s experience proves lockdowns were pointless, we could have largely ignored the pandemic, and overall deaths would have gone down is certainly provocative, but it’s utter nonsense." prospect.org/health/2025-...

Five years ago, nearly to the day, the Trump Admin throttled Covid testing because this dumb mf’er thought the testing made him look bad.

Me three months ago:

Watch the dollar continue to drop.

Trump responds to his failure to create jobs by firing the U.S. labor statistics chief Confronted with evidence of his own failures, the president could've changed direction. He instead found it easier to fire his labor statistics chief.

In true authoritarian fashion, Trump, confronted by evidence of his failures, fired the labor statistics chief for telling the truth.

It’s dangerously insane to set the credibility of government stats on fire to satisfy presidential whims.

This isn’t how Americans govern; it’s how despots rule.
