What follows is a version of a short thread I posted some time ago on the bad place. I really believe it gets at something important that I've never seen discussed anywhere. It's simply this: REGARDLESS of what Republicans *say*, there's a powerful reason for them to WANT big deficits. Follow along…

"The company’s financial collapse highlights the danger of buying into Elon Musk’s claims that Tesla vehicles would become “appreciating assets”—a prediction that has faced a harsh reality check in the used EV market." Elon says a lot of things. Baseline assumption should be that none are true.

Tulsi Gabbard was an open Putin sympathizer (Assad sympathizer too) for years before Trump and the GOP Senate put her in charge of the US intel community. Her apparent eagerness to push Russian govt propaganda, including some that’s transparently absurd, is not incidental. It’s why she got the job.

The person charged with enforcing the laws is an open lawbreaker, assisted by a team of open lawbreakers, backed by a Congressional majority indifferent to lawbreaking, supported by a Supreme Court that privileges them to break the law. It has no legitimacy whatsoever.

The Epstein Transparency Act required the release of ALL Epstein files yesterday, not just some of them. Pam Bondi has broken the law. Arrest Pamela Bondi now.

The White House has been caught. The administration inserted a photo of Bill Clinton, Michael Jackson, and Diana Ross into the Epstein files and falsely implied it showed them with victims. In reality, it’s a publicly available fundraiser photo featuring Jackson and Ross’s own children.

Yesterday played out exactly as many expected a cover-up. When 119 pages of grand jury documents are released entirely redacted, that goes far beyond protecting victims’ identities. A court ordered these records released, yet what the public received was effectively nothing.

With their low- and middle-income customers strapped financially, even downscale retailers like Wal-Mart are trying to court upper-echelon buyers. Not a great sign for the economy.

If you walked into the voting booth and put a fucking check mark next to "Donald J. Trump" for President, you cannot fucking say "I didn't vote for this". YES YOU DID. You checked the box, you posted the memes, you owned the libs, and now we are all being rewarded for your hatred and racism. Thanks.

According to Trump, fentanyl is now officially a “weapon of mass destruction”—escalating the militarization of the “drug war”. Providing, presumably, a rationale to invade Venezuela before release of the Epstein files.

Chancellor Merz is right: Europe can no longer depend on America. But he's wrong to say that America is pursuing its own interests. Trump is pursuing his deranged and corrupt interests, not ours.

"The Democrats selectively released Epstein photos that make Trump look bad." Dang, that's crazy. If only someone had the ability to release the files in their entirety, which would have diluted the impact of the Trump photos.

If for no other reason than simply to get it on the record, Dems should file an impeachment resolution listing all of Trump's MANY impeachable offenses. Don't worry about trying to pick a couple of "sure winners": list *everything*. Future generations will be able to see how badly Republicans caved!

Remember when we were not losing jobs in droves, or at odds with all our allies, or attacking other nations for their resources, or deploying masked thugs to terrorize our citizens, or pardoning drug traffickers and violent criminals in exchange for bribes? It was only little over a year ago.

Trump claims to have pardoned fellow MAGA and fellow criminal, Tina Peters. Only he didn’t - because he CAN’T. Yet again, he’s proving to the world - and MUST be increasingly proving to MAGA - that he’s a moron living in a fantasy land.

U.S. military spending is set to hit a record $1 trillion. Roughly half of defense spending goes to private contractors that routinely price-gouge the government. Meanwhile, the Pentagon has failed seven straight audits. This is the military industrial complex on steroids.
