I think the rapid collapse of Trump’s support enforces the theory that swing/persuadable voters gave the old white man who was president the directive to lower prices and once that wasn’t done they could not tolerate everything else. It was a disastrous decision but probably an accurate one.

I think many people understand this at an intuitive level and someone told me a long time ago just because you’re standing in a garage doesn’t make you a car.

It’s been over a year since I watched cable news and I haven’t regretted a single moment. The billionaire takeover of corporate media has reinforced my decision and should cause us all to support independent journalism. Make their profit margins nonexistent.

Just want to know for planning purposes whether today is a bad Biden economy day or an A++++++ economy day. There’s a lot of owning of the libs & it would help if that was clarified.

Tourism graphs of European countries visiting the U.S. Question: the line on the graph going down, is that bad? Americans voted for this.

I don’t know I’m 55, and by my count this is at least the 4th or 5th bailout of the farmers. I used to say - “sure bail them out.” I used to say “you’ve been hit by a tornado give them disaster relief.” But I don’t know the Trump experience has opened my eyes to how they view the rest of us.

I agree. Rate cuts increase prices and inflation is a bit stubborn.

Why not? Federalism is what Trump says it is. It was all a lie that they believed in anything except the pursuit of power like a cartel.

If you’re a federal court why would you give this Justice Dept the benefit of the doubt. Sort of makes you wonder if the SCT agrees w Administration arguments based on their merits or the proposed outcomes? www.nbcnews.com/politics/jus...

OMG (if true)

Indiana, in a display of defiance refuses to update it’s congressional map. And a 3rd grand jury has refused to indict the NY Attorney General. Not so easy, is it?

Cutting interest rates raises prices. It lowers the borrowing cost but raises the price. It’s also unclear that if a new chairperson was installed whether that would actually force rates down it may lower the fed rate but it might not lower other lending rates.

Abrego Garcia has been ordered released from custody as being unlawfully detained. Due process up front could have avoided everything. Now he’s got a great civil suit.

I don’t know the guy building a golden ballroom talking about affordability seems awkward.

Not only is it waste, fraud & abuse it’s offensive. I mean Kid Rock?

“We want people who come to this country the right way.” Have you gotten the feeling yet that’s not what it’s about? www.usatoday.com/story/news/n...

Gerrymandering has its limits and there’s diminishing returns when you spread your advantage to seemingly create more red districts you may create more of them at narrower margins which can then flip. Example:

You have to give up stuff, he gets a ballroom. You fell for it, America.

Why stop at $12B for the farmers? If there’s like Trillions that’s coming into this country bc Trump is so great why not give them more? Heck, where’s the child care he promised? 🤔

Sigh….. What a day to be a student at Burke Elementary School. 👍

Trump is in Pennsylvania and I observe that they voted for this.

I don’t know much about local Miami politics but this seems significant.

Aimed at stopping the freak out in Congress. Lol. www.thedailybeast.com/ice-maiden-s...

Your reminder that for the first time in history, Moody’s downgraded America’s credit rating from Aaa to Aa1. But the economy is great. Sure.

Of course. No news is good news. No report, no inflation. www.wsj.com/economy/bls-...

Now is the time for Europe to take the $200B in frozen Russian assets and give it to Ukraine.

I’m sure this is just an initial bailout and there will be supplementals. Some bailouts are totally cool. I didn’t vote for this. www.politico.com/live-updates...

“Kamala Harris would be more of the same.” Well, you got different didn’t ya. Now shut up.

Americans have been zig zagging like a pinball between parties for a while now, the strategy is not working and didn’t care what happened to anyone else as long as they thought they were getting something out of deal. The voters wasted that thought. They got nothing & some us are not surprised.

That’s sweet, everyone hates them too. These voters got us into this mess so I’m glad they hate everyone. I listen to these focus groups and I’m still amazed, although I shouldn’t be how stunningly stupid these people are.

We’ve done some terrible things as a nation & sadly this will be placed under n that list. But even if you were a pure self interested America first type, this encourages other nations to treat Americans in vulnerable states in similar fashion so great job.

The boat strikes are having their desired effect. Think about what it has us talking about and what it doesn’t have us talking about.

Friday you made it. Here you go a little joy from INXS. m.youtube.com/watch?v=aEW_...

Last year all I heard was the indictments against Trump didn’t count bc it’s easy to get an indictment. And sure they’re easy,if the evidence is there and you know what you’re doing. www.cnn.com/2025/12/04/p...

Since I despise the pardon power bc it’s a relic from the 18th century & before, I hope all pardons are invalidated & Trump’s pardons receive the same treatment. Any other Executive Orders, I could care less.

Years from now every person in this photo whether they agree w this or not, will have taken on this belief system based on their proximity to Trump. It’s why your moral compass should tell you to decline, assuming you had one which is in doubt for those depicted.

Here we go again.

I posted yesterday the fact that he didn’t know or doesn’t support what exactly happened doesn’t reflect well on him either. Is anyone losing their job and furthermore he doesn’t seem all that upset. Clown show.

The Trump Administration is reduced to explaining the bad economy to that of a losing baseball team- “wait till next year!” Sad.

There are no criminal prosecutions anymore. Millions were spent, and it consumed much of our collective attention so there is a tremendous public interest in having Jack Smith testify & testify publicly the public can understand what he did & found on our dime.

A note on the TN-07 special election. It’s way too soon to project out - we’re 11 months from the midterms. It bodes extremely well, but there will be another million outrages until that happens. Everyone should keep doing what they’re doing.

Many of us warned about the consequences of a convicted felon (& deranged lunatic) in the Oval Office and these boat strikes are a vivid manifestation of that decision. It all results in a lawless Administration.

🤔 Gee, who was the president during the 2020 recession? The guy in the WH now who is 5 years older and can’t stay awake during meetings.
