FORMER US TRADE REP JEFF MOON, on @cnbc.com: China has always had this leverage over the US with rare earths/soybeans. "They've finally decided to go public with it."

“America’s ruling class has managed to neutralize all the discipline that it ever faced. Their weirdest, worst ideas are the ones that we’re all stuck with.”

But it would mean he is G-O-N-E...

Nasdaq down 2%.

The No Kings protests have been some of the most peaceful and well attended political assemblies in American history. In fact, MAGA has mocked them as a bunch of boomer grandmothers. Now they are apparently terrorists. bsky.app/profile/atru...

Two GOP governors — Vermont’s Phil Scott and Oklahoma’s Kevin Stitt — just slammed Trump’s troop deployment as unconstitutional. Even Republican governors are finally calling him out for using the National Guard to take over American cities. newrepublic.com/post/201610/...

At least someone associated with Trump acknowledges that the war criminal’s barbarian horde kidnapped children.

Bacon: "The president was demanding her indictment 2 weeks ago and I think it really muddies the water. Normally, the president says out of this discussion, they let the attorney general and the process work. When you have a president ordering & demanding indictments, it will be used by the defense"

NEWS: Trump accuses China of launching “hostile” export restrictions on rare earths and threatens massive new tariffs and financial countermeasures from the U.S. in response. Markets quickly dropped after he made this post.

Marge Greene yesterday, Loomer today.

So Trump gave Argentina a $20 billion bailout and is now building a Qatari military facility in Idaho. While Americans can’t afford groceries.

Jeffries: "Donald Trump's strategy during this government shutdown that he has created has been to play golf and issue deep fake videos. Mike Johnson's strategy is to keep House Republicans on vacation."

I wonder at what point this morning we will hear from the Oval office that the selection process was rigged, or the fix was in against Trump.

A WOMAN! LATINA! From Venezue— Oh shit. He's gonna declare war on them now isn't he 😬

Just watch for the anti-peace sentiments coming from Trump today

He should note the words "... from dictatorship to democracy.", and maybe stop blowing up small boats in international waters.

They really should release an announcement that Trump wasn't even in the running. That he tied for last next to Putin.

So sad! He managed an unprecedented ride around King Charles’ back garden but no recognition like his predecessors, Roosevelt, Wilson, Carter, and Obama. 🤣🤣🤣🤣

A Venezuelan woman may anger tRump more than President Obama! It’s so ironically funny

Who will be the first MAGA Senator to present him with his own made up award? 🤔 which one will introduce a bill naming Trump the first recipient of the US Smartest, Healthiest, Most Peaceful Man Alive award?

I hope Oslo has an Iron Dome

… however, Trump got the P. File Prize.

🇳🇴 Norway knows a PoS, war-mongering, dictator-wannabe, half-wit loser when they see one. Bravo 👏🏻 🇳🇴

Hahahahahahahahahaha hahahahahahahahahaha hahahahahahahahahaha hahahahahahahahahaha hahahahahahahahahaha hahahahahahahahahaha hahahahahahahahahaha hahahahahahahahahaha Poor Trumpy Hahahahahahahahahaha hahahahahahahahahaha hahahahahahahahahaha Thank you for your attention to this matter.

OK – the fact that someone from Venezuela received it instead of him is peak trolling by the committee. 😄

Add in his insane comments about invading Greenland and Canada and the whole exploding of random people in the Carribbean, and I think he failed the whole "Peace" part of the Peace Prize.

I think fomenting a civil war at home might’ve hurt his chances That + the fact he hasn’t resolved anything anywhere else either

tRump is going to have a stroke when he wakes up and finds out a Latino left wing Venezuelan woman has won the Peace Prize.

He's going to have a meltdown!

Prepare for Ketchup Storm.

Buckle up Buttercup's for the Orange Mussolini's revenge tour. #Resist

No Nobel Peace Prize for Trump. Sad! meidasnews.com/news/trump-f...

APOLLO: “.. the labor market is at a standstill, where workers are not getting hired or voluntarily changing jobs.”

MAGA influencer pushes Trump to unconstitutionally ignore federal judges

Sen. Ruben Gallego says the impacts of the shutdown pale in comparison to the calamity that would ensue if the Obamacare subsidies expire: “If we don’t get ACA tax credit extensions, over 100,000 Arizonans are going to double their premiums on their health insurance. That’s painful and permanent.”

Sad that MAGA keeps falling for these

This child molester was not a drag queen, immigrant, leftist, or transgender person — he was a self-described Republican “MAGA pastor” and Trump’s “spiritual advisors.”

Protections for transgender people in no way threatens religious freedom. It threatens religious bigotry.
