Really have to hand it to Trump, it's almost impossible to spike inflation, mortgage rates, and unemployment simultaneously, but he's managing to get it done. Courses will be taught in business school using Trump as a model for how NOT to run the world's largest economy.

Trump and the MAGA personality cult are actually doing to the social fabric the stuff they accuse immigrants of.

Under Trump, 23% of blue state requests have been granted vs 89% of red state requests. Trump is politicizing and weaponizing disaster relief. When disaster strikes, every American deserves the benefits their tax dollars pay for. Do not let Trump’s petty partisanship become normalized. It is not okay.

Who is this money stolen from? You. It’s pension funds and regular people on the other side of these insider trades. We need aggressive independent investigations, arrests, and prosecutions

genuinely feels amazing when a non franchise movie that’s actually really good succeeds

This, like the vile bleat he posted after Rob Reiner and his wife’s murder, like the thousand preceding data points of moral turpitude, is such a sad commentary on what many Americans are willing to tolerate. It corrodes us all.

Checking in on Trump’s talk of a “balanced budget” days after taking office… National debt, Jan. 2025: $36.2 trillion National debt, March 2026: $39 trillion

There's been this huge influx of "affordability" jargon, but: 1. We had a bunch of inflation 2. Trump promised the price level would fall 3. The rate of increase never even fell back to the target level 4. It's now re-accelerating

Let me get this straight. The federal government held a legal auction for the right to build offshore wind farms. A company won those auctions fair and square, paying nearly a billion dollars into the U.S. Treasury. The projects went through years of review. Courts repeatedly upheld their legality. Everything was above board. Then the Trump administration tried five separate times to kill other wind projects in federal court and lost every single time. Judges reviewed the administration’s supposed “national security” justification and weren’t persuaded.  So now they’ve landed on a new plan: pay the company nearly ONE BILLION DOLLARS of your tax money to just walk away. Because, and I am not making this up, the president thinks offshore wind turbines are ugly and claims without evidence that they “drive whales crazy.”  He’s been nursing this petty grudge since 2012, when he tried to block a wind farm visible from his golf course in Scotland. Fourteen years later, American taxpayers are footing the bill for it. This is stupid policy. It’s fiscally reckless, strategically blind, and driven entirely by a personal vendetta rather than any coherent vision for American energy or competitiveness. Meanwhile, China is racing ahead, building offshore wind at a staggering pace and positioning itself to dominate the global clean energy economy for decades to come. None of this is America First. nytimes.com/2026/03/17/cli…

It wasn't a caricature, you morons. That was actually what he's like.

Absolutely morbid black comedy that the U.S. government is removing sanctions on Russian and Iranian oil in 2026 not as part of any celebrated peace deal or diplomatic normalization but as a last-ditch effort to soften the blow of a historic energy crisis caused by a U.S. war.

Last year, Donald Trump Jr. invested in a rare earths startup at a $200 million valuation. Then three months later, the US government announced a huge loan backstop for the company and now it's worth around $2 billion. bloomberg.com/news/features/…

A popular Biden-era bumper sticker: "I'd Take a Mean Tweet and Gas That is Expensive But Not As Much as Overseas Right Now"

He appointed someone he always thought to be “weak on security” to a national security position.
