Yeah man just like you I did Nazi this coming from the guy literally barking quotations from Mein Kampf on the campaign trail

It's weird to have elected leaders who say they want to crash the economy, reinstate segregation, strip human rights and create a perpetual underclass and then have people ask why are they doing this are they bad at economics ?

I need the press to stop saying, "This isn’t what people voted for." No. It IS exactly what they voted for. They just didn't vote for it to happen to THEMSELVES. They were okay if it was going to happen to "THOSE people." And THAT is the problem.

I understand why Americans want to take issue with the use of "we" here but I promise you that people outside the U.S. aren't going to treat the "good" Americans with kid gloves when shit gets real, economically or otherwise. "We" elected Trump as a country, whether we like it or not.

I can’t compete with this

One thing about today's tariff shitshow is that congress could undo all this nonsense tonight and the damage would still be huge, because these actions have decisively signaled that the US is an unreliable international trading partner—and this impacts political and economic strategy worldwide.

We go now live to our economics editor who has broken out the good whiskey and seems to be playing with a revolver. How are the markets reacting Greg

Thinking about how this interacts with the disability tax and the fact that it is already more costly to be alive while disabled. I can't be the only one who's concerned about availability and affordability of my medical equipment and supplies right now.

We simply had to intentionally destroy the world’s strongest economy while dismantling our scientific and educational infrastructure to ensure that a team with a trans girl would never finish second place in the Mountain West volleyball standings again

And sadly, a whole bunch of the people mad about the pronoun stuff are definitely okay with the torture prison stuff and probably think the tax hike is worth it, too.

The sheer scale of wealth that buffers billionaires is hard to visualize. Their perspective is literally inhuman, their lives totally divorced from the average person's. It's impossible for them to not be absolute monsters.

it's cool how all these people that gaslit the public about his health for years are getting book deals about it now love that for them certainly isn't a sign of a cycle that will repeat

The biggest issue I recall during the election was "should the Democratic Party continue committing genocide" but comparing killing children with buying a substandard used car sure is a wild thing to do

Love to see politicians show up on Bluesky and get that label right away (She hasn’t said anything transphobic on here afaik but she said in the past that trans issues are a “legitimate concern” for cis women of her generation, though she tried to backtrack and show support fwiw)

160 years ago today, the traitor Jefferson Davis and his treasonous cabinet abandoned Richmond, the capital of the Confederacy, spelling the beginning of the end of the Civil War. A day for all patriots to celebrate.

The world would be measurable better had you never been born

Montana's anti-trans bathroom ban is BLOCKED by the courts. The judge finds that the ban was "motivated by animus" and that it showed no evidence that it protects safety and privacy.

This is someone who would've absolutely hated MLK while he was alive
