Why does Trump want you to blame little girls? He knows what the shipping lanes look like. He knows pain is coming. This is an intentional shock, I tell you. He’s trying to frame it to his advantage. Don’t think he can? He framed a coup and a theft of…

Why Trump wants you to blame little girls Trump is actually handing Democrats a playbook for how messaging works in 2025 and how to attack the Trump regime’s reconciliation bill (or bills) bumbling through Congress. …

I started off this episode wondering if Hickey is our Homer and ended visualizing him as Rod Serling. These bonuses rule always crackle with the same so of poignancy as the main show, even when they aren’t about a Nick Drake, Laura Nyro or Alex Chilton. …

Pretty amazing that Tesla's value, which @niedermeyer.online points out is larger than the rest of the auto industry combined, is almost singularly predicated on Musk's ability to innovate new product lines—something he has failed at consistently for the…

A few years ago, I saw a musical based on Into the Wild. It seemed to be about how young white men were flailing in the 1990s because there weren't obvious things to strive against or for. And I thought, "Well, solved that!" [contains quote post or other…

Hearing from small business owners around here that they've stocked up as much as they can and are terrified they soon won't be able to stock their shelves. Points to why the economy hasn't nosedived much and why it could, soon.

While Trump mostly likes the chance to act like a xenophobic king, the rich leeches around him visualize America as a giant company store for the billionaires. This is also why there needs to be a clear alternative from the left to what fair trade looks…

To put a finer point on it: "Donald Trump should shut up before he crashes the global economy. He has the power to use tariffs in an emergency, not to create emergency after emergency after emergency. Even the Federalist Society thinks this is…

I think just these cuts alone would be the most significant cuts to insurance coverage in the history of Medicaid. Add in the ACA cuts, the GOP seems intent on letting happen, & we're on the verge of the most massive uninsuring of Americans ever, during a…

It's usually useless to read what House GOPs in vulnerable districts, who get outlets like Punchbowl to call them "moderates," say. Because they always crumble. Why we need to get them all out. But interesting to note even their lesser HALF A TRILLION in…

What I'm saying is Democrats should be saying, "There's a good chance Trump with his temper tariffs is going to crash the global economy, pursuing no one's gain except his own." Democrats should be saying that because he's better at BS, has a louder…

We know a supply shock is coming, but not smart to expect Wall St's wishcasting to keep propping up the economy "You have a system that works unless volatility goes above a certain level, Donald Trump is the perfect thing to give a heart attack to the…

Totally the wrong tone. I'd go with: Trump is playing games with the global economy and lives, and the result is ruin unless the Republicans in Congress rein him in. [contains quote post or other embedded content]

Someone should ask Pence why he couldn't do the right thing until the last moment. Because of all the delays and "respect" for the president's opinion and his supporters, as well as the suspicion he feels very comfortable projecting into our elections,…

It was so hard for the same reasons Pence refused to stop the coup in December and declare he'd do his Constitutional duties, and instead let it linger until January 6th, the party is made up of fascists and cowards. I'm glad Pence decided to be neither at…

The cuts to scientific research are just as bad, but it will take years or decades to be evident. The tariffs offer him the ability to show how terrible he is at being president in real time, something tens of millions of Americans apparently needed a…

We've now seen why the 14th Amendment tried to keep insurrectionists from ever returning to power. But Trump's attempt to overrule the 5th Amendment is a perfect example of why you don't give rights that don't exist—Roberts Court's "absolute immunity"—to a…
