Contests where you root for the war to continue without taking sides: Hitler v. Stalin Iran v Iraq (Saddam version) Cowboys v Eagles Trump v Musk

If tips are tax free, I can see people shifting the way they pay and the way they tip out of jealousy. If overtime is somehow tax free, I can absolutely see wages cut and hours increased to give tax-free income. No doubt.

Di I have this correct? Trump unilaterally raises tariffs on China. China responds. Trump negotiates a 90 day roll back of both sets. Trump declares victory. The Cult cheers. What am I missing?

How soon before the Idiot in chief takes credit for Leo?

I admit to being confused. Here I thought all these years that Congress authorized spending. How is Trump's slashing foreign aid and now NPR, etc. funding legal? This is a serious question. Congress authorized these programs, how can the executive "cut" them?

USPS is yet another hidden blue state/red state welfare arrangement, where we pay more for a service so that rural areas don't have to pay their fair share. That is why some red state politicians oppose the privatization of mail. But something has to be done. The deficit is large and growing.

I haven't rooted this hard against a kid coming out of college since Johnny Manziel. That they both got drafted by the Browns says something, though I'm not sure just what. Here's to the Browns #4 QB failing as miserably as possible.

As long as the Jets aren't drafting a QB I'm OK on Draft Day. But if word leaks that they may be looking that way, then the most terrifying words in the English language become: the Jets are on the clock.

At what point does the world simply turn away from MAGA-USA and just cut deals with China? The arc of history seemed to be pointing to them anyway--is Trump just accelerating it? Are we really living in a world where China is more stable than the US?

The attorneys at Paul Weiss and Skadden should be ridiculed and held to professional and public shame. Every. Day. And those who made the decision to cave? They should be disbarred. www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/202...

Absolutely. Skaddan and Paul Weiss shd be ashamed of themselves...and disbarred.

What? Why not? I mean, she sat in on FoxNews prep meetings. F'n amateurs.

I hope Senator Bill Cassidy, a doctor, can sleep at night, knowing he voted to confirm a man who dismantling our health system.

I am very concerned that Greenland, to defend itself from these idiots, cuts a deal with China, giving them exclusive rights to the minerals. And, hey, maybe a naval mission couched as a scientific exploration fleet.

Absolutely fearful that Dems will take the seat. Her staying in Congress is a huge loss to the country.

A possible outcome of this insanity: Greenland cuts a minerals and air/naval base deal with China. When a bully comes at you, sometimes getting another big guy to stand with you is your only option.

No big deal. It's not like a disease that runs rampant in a poor country can mutate and spread to other areas of the world. I mean, what are the odds something like that could happen? www.nytimes.com/2025/03/26/h...

If these federal cuts really do go through across the board, here is what it will mean: Red states will get dumber, sicker, poorer, and with worsening infrastructure. Blue states will pay more in-state to replace the federal $$, and, eventually, more to clean up the Red state messes.

Is this all a result of 60 years of terrible education? Of pervasive relativism, of failure to teach the core principles upon which this country was based? Of liberal teachers and professors highlighting every flaw, without stressing the pluses? All coming home to roost in the form of this cult.

Don't expect colleges to stand up to Trump. Because they're not about education. They are whores, led by admins making obscene money. Proof? Look at college sports. Every decision made is about money; none about the students or education. They'll cave to Trump, ESPN, NIKE-every time- for $$.

All of these programs he & Musk are slashing were voted on and funded (repeatedly) by Congress. At what point does Congress say no to him and the cult? Or at least vote, even if it is to support what he is doing? If not, why not just call the Capital the Reichstag and get it over with?

“Less medical research, a pull-back on life-saving vaccines, turning away from science and embracing folk medicine. Make America Healthy Again. Again. Meaning: America used to be ‘healthy’ and now is not. This is the stupidest thing I’ve ever heard.” open.substack.com/pub/thebulwa...

We are definitely heading to Canada for some vacation time--they need to know that most of us are opposed to this insane, purposeless, ego-driven, trade war. And that, while we don't want Canada as a 51st state, many of us wouldn't mind our own state becoming Canada's 11th province.

The galaxy brain idea that we could stop this axis from forming by giving Putin what he wanted in Ukraine—espoused by the likes of Trump, Vance, and Ramaswamy—was the dumbest and most dangerous approach to this whole situation. And we’re already seeing why. Idiocy.

Carney: Canada never ever will be part of America in any way, shape, or form. We didn’t ask for this fight, but Canadians are always ready when someone else drops the gloves.

Does the government need modernization and downsizing? With a trillion dollar deficit, absolutely. Do we need tax reform so that everyone--top to bottom-- pays a fair share? With a trillion dollar deficit, absolutely. But this isn't how you do it. This is cruel and stupid.

Trump Outlines Bold Vision For Golden Age Of China

Not necessarily disagreeing. But the kicker is the red states will be most hurt. I don't understand why we are getting residential mail 6 days. Two would be fine by me. But the major losses are attributable to delivering mail in rural areas. If they paid the true cost, their letter would be $15.

I can't tell if these people are delusional or just cynical, knowing they are feeding this stuff to idiots.

Zelensky is a hero. Trump is a coward. Slava Ukraini.🇺🇦 Shame on America. NATO/freedom/democracy are good. Putin/Trump/authoritarianism are bad.

Strangest thing ever. Skype owned video conferencing, until it was needed most. Then it just disappeared. Since COVID I have used a half dozen platforms or more..but not once skype.

How much work did the 2.3 million fed workers actually do yesterday? Likely, they spent most of the day trying to interpret & hash out the Musk email nonsense. Figure there are 250 work days. What is 250th of the federal payroll? Bet it is a helluva lot more than anything DOGE is going to save.

Elon is as rich as he is thanks to us taxpayers. We saved Tesla, investing billions of tax dollars in the electric car industry. We gave tens of billions to support his space ventures. Take away tesla & x, and sure, he would still be rich. But not megalomaniac rich. www.cnn.com/2024/11/20/b...

Shocking. I can't believe there are lies coming from anyone associated with the King. Also-- any idea what Elon's net worth would be without taxpayers subsidies for electric cars and space missions?

Former Capitol police officer Michael Fanone when confronting Proud Boys insurrectionist Enrique Tarrio: “You are a traitor to this country.” RETWEET if you stand with Officer Fanone!

Musk and Trump lied?? I am shocked, simply shocked.

Since most federal workers don't access emails on the weekend, this means literally no work will get done tomorrow. Workers will be paniced, asking if they really have to answer this idiot, and then will spend hours crafting their response, and talking w each other. Talk about a waste of govt $$

If we are going to reform the Post Office, how about starting with simple steps--like residential deliveries less than 6 days a week? My garbage gets picked up twice a week--I can live with mail the same.

When are Congress or the Courts going to step up and stop this nonsense?

Am missing The Principles First convention this weekend. Have been a couple of times and delighted in meeting smart, conservative, non-crazy people from around the country. @walshfreedom.bsky.social, @heathmayo.bsky.social my thoughts w you today. Keep fighting!

Rarely has so much ignorance & ahistorical BS been crammed into a single tweet. I know JD Vance & Donald Trump are busy surrendering to a KGB butcher, abandoning the cause of freedom, & destroying the security of America & her allies, but they'd do well to spend some time actually studying history.

It's one thing to cut staff to try to balance the budget. It's another thing for the richest man in the country to gloat about it, to celebrate it. All these people did was apply for a job Congress created. They didn't storm the Capital. But maybe they would have been better off if they did.
