So oddly performative.

JUST IN: Oregon sues to stop Trump’s deployment of the military, saying its pretextual and that ICE protests have been small and relatively contained since June. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Just gonna keep saying it. Mandatory firearm liability insurance would dramatically reduce the amount of and accessibility of guns in this country, thereby reducing crime, suicides, murder, and shootings without crimping anyone’s rights.

George Washington is rolling over in his grave.

This whole scene is just crazy.

In which a top US Border Patrol official, incredibly, tells my tall and Anglo colleague @chipmitchell1.bsky.social that he's not the type they're looking for as they go about downtown Chicago arresting people based on "how they look" chicago.suntimes.com/immigration/...

No kidding.

Odds of her being eventually disbarred are not low.

14 / 23 found probable cause to indict. Good luck getting that beyond a reasonable doubt.

Mr. Tattoo has some personal grooming and appearance standards that he wants to enforce? This admin is so gung ho abput religious freedom (mostly for Christians), will there be a religious exemption -- or is this really just intended to force out Muslim members of the military?

Do read the story. The potential mismatch between $ capital needs and the useful life of the resultant physical capital stock is the central conundrum here?

They not gonna give Drake equal time?

Then he'll act surprised when inflation soars.

I thought Trump disbanded US AID? /sarc buenosairesherald.com/economics/us...

Fox News would have mercilessly mocked Biden for days if he'd said this.

50-50 chance the prosecutor bringing this case will eventually be disbarred.

Beware the illusion of the nominal over the real.

Trump does so many crazy things, so fast, that the next crazy things ends up replacing in your mind the last crazy thing he did. But when you gather them all together in one place, it's just stunning. You could do this on almost any topic, economic policies, defense gaffes, his personal foibles etc.

There's also this amazing little service they employ called Flock that tracks car license plates all over the Country. If you're not familiar with it, check out deflock. com . #AllYourPrivacyIsOurs

Absolutely explosive story from the New York Times stating that Elon Musk's father, Errol Musk, stands accused of sexually abusing several of his children in South Africa and the US. www.nytimes.com/2025/09/23/w...

I really wonder exactly where is the $50,000 in cash that Homan allegedly accepted from undercover FBI agents. Did he return it? Did he keep it? Where is the US government's money? And could a citizen file a lawsuit seeking the return of it? Perhaps a Qui Tam suit? www.msnbc.com/msnbc/news/t...

Amazing photo and headline from the AP. "Trump makes unfounded claims about Tylenol and repeats discredited link between vaccines and autism" apnews.com/article/tyle...

Americans do not grasp how much Europe follows America's foreign policy lead right now because pf our military hegemony. An independent minded Europe able to conduct it's own defense is *not* something the US wants. Plus, it seems likely to devastate the US defense industry.

Digital bank NOBA's $3.7 billion IPO multiple times covered, bookrunners say reut.rs/42C1Ixx

Same.

The USD has been weakening, so if the Rupee is weakening relative to USD, that's going to be quite inflationary for India. How will Modi handle that?

Why do you think Trump did this?

A blue collar, apolitical friend in Michigan is mad when, because of Trump ending the de minimis exemption, UPS surpised him by demanding a tariff payment before it would deliver a part he ordered on EBay from the Czech Republic. This made it super clear to him who pays tariffs.

South Korea’s early exports tumbled in September, with higher US tariffs slamming the brakes on shipments in a troubling sign for the trade-dependent economy

ABC canceled the red carpet, because they were afraid of what these artists would say. #MakeFreeSpeechGreatAgain

Here's what you need to know to start your day

Tucker invents a new code phrase for Jewish people.

99 times out of 100, when these guys are "staring down the barrel of a gun" it's from the end with the sights.

Crisis actors.

I really don't know which is worse: that this guy is Trump's lackey or that he actually thinks 5 cuts are needed in the next 5 meetings. Powell's gonna get replaced with a super dove, what then? Inflation risk is real and might get priced into the long end between now and then.

'Carr’s threats against ABC appear to be “a pretty clear-cut case of jawboning.” Jawboning refers to a type of informal coercion where government officials try to pressure private entities into suppressing or changing speech without using any actual formal legal action' www.wired.com/story/brenda...

Maybe scenario number 3 was not a hypo, but a real-o. www.nbcnews.com/news/latino/...

Random Q: If the NYT cannot sustain counterclaims that are compulsory under the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure (because Trump is immune), what happens to them? Will the Federal Courts allow Trump to proceed? It seems fundamentally unfair to permit POTUS to sue people civilly, but not vice-versa.

Trump wants to stop monitoring greenhouse gas emissions. The EPA wants to destroy the evidence that oil and gas companies are destroying the climate. This will hurt Texans along the fence lines, hurt clean energy innovators: www.houstonchronicle.com/business/col... #txlege @houstonchronicle.com

Gundlach has finally had his come-to-Jesus moment on Trump. He was so pro-Trump prior to the election. Now that Trump is aggressively into territory Gundlach knows well (rate markets), he's like wtf. Never heard G express such conviction against the U.S.and US$. www.youtube.com/watch?v=2npB...

Wait, you mean to tell me there were legitimate reasons to stay in Afghanistan the whole time? And Trump ignored them when he decided to pull-out the US and wreck 20 years of relationships and completely destabilze Afghanistan society? This is my shocked bunny rabbit face.

40 light years away.

A tip and some Instagram posts led New York Times reporters to a Turkish oil magnate’s megayacht — where President Trump’s daughter Tiffany and her husband were apparently cruising the Mediterranean.

Call it the MAGA-to-earnings ratio

Breaking News: Eleven Democratic elected officials were arrested in New York City after demanding access to ICE’s migrant detention cells.

Hunh, it's almost like the party in power wants to use that power, and the party not in power wants to maximize their "free speech."

Looks like we have a new norm for a "going nuclear" exception. The next President, R or D, will do this immdetent. (orbat least as soon as tye most controversial appointments are resolved), to all of our detriment.

If the FCC Chair is going to act like this, media companies need to quickly make a strong legal stand. The real Q is whether this SCOTUS will make a ruling that substantially changes 1A law.
