For the first time in 80 years, the federal debt-to-GDP ratio is over 100%. In the past, the rich used to pay higher taxes. Now, the government pays the rich interest on a swelling debt, caused largely by lower taxes on the rich. It's a big switcheroo. Watch.

@ForwardFalcon Crazy Horse lunch special.

Where’s this bro eating where he needs to show ID to get in?

@anish_koka The biggest group of welfare recipients in US history protecting their cash cow.

Republicans will screw these things up just as often as Democrats. Which is why breaking up the health systems or the big health insurance companies would be a bad idea. We should go after the regulatory drivers of these monopolies (there are many) rather than use the big brother government cudgel to break them up.

@remarks Red Hat acolytes just eating this crap up, as usual. I still have trouble believing that anyone would still support a president that openly and bravely defies our entire system of laws, including the Constitution.

JUST IN: 🇺🇸🇮🇷 White House officially tells Congress the Iran war is "terminated."

Vivek Ramaswamy is a shameless scammer. While he has spent his entire campaign attacking Dr. Acton and Gov. DeWine for their response to the pandemic, it turns out Vivek himself—a biotech billionaire— 👉🏼 made millions on the COVID vaccine 👉🏼 wanted to segregate the population based on vaccine status 👉🏼 wanted to establish a national COVID-19 registry 👉🏼served on Ohio’s COVID response team and then paid to have it scrubbed from Wikipedia Ohioans need to know the truth about this guy.

@Bob_the_baker @RBReich Funny how people who say the stupidest things never show their faces.

@RBReich So what you’re talking about is Fighting for lazyness and mediocrity Congrats that’s what the commys want you to do.

Never forget this: Working people outnumber the billionaires and CEOs by a huge margin. When workers stand together, they win. Solidarity. #MayDay

Louisiana’s GOP governor just declared a STATE OF EMERGENCY to CANCEL an election. Not for a storm — but to redraw maps so he can ERASE a historically Black district. They’re not even hiding it. MAGA is rigging elections to silence YOU.

@Houseofyogi Respectfully, I disagree. Like we all learned how capitalism works in school, Spirit will liquidate and another, better company will take its place.

Spirit Airlines died tonight at the hands of the socialist crusader, Elizabeth Warren She must be so proud to add another casket to her achievements. Tonight at 3am, Spirit turns off the lights. 14,000 jobs gone. 30+ smaller airports lose service. JetBlue offered $3.8 BILLION in cash to buy Spirit in 2022. Shareholders, flight attendants union, literally everyone voted yes. The combined company would have held 9% of the US market against a Big 4 that already owned 80%. For anyone who understands numbers: 9% isn’t a monopoly against 80%. Warren said no. She wrote letters. She pressured Buttigieg. Biden’s DOJ sued. A federal judge killed the deal in January 2024. Her argument: the merger would cost consumers $1 billion a year. Now look at her collateral damage she dusts under the rug. 510 pilots gone in the months after. 1,800 flight attendants furloughed in December. 14,000 jobs in 2023. 7,500 last week. Zero tonight. And that’s just the people in Spirit uniforms. Catering goes. Fuel guys go. Baggage crews, gate agents, airport coffee shops, hotels and rental cars in 70 cities Spirit flew to. Every airline job carries 3 more on its back. 40,000 people out of work because of one woman’s moronic crusade against the market. And the math ain’t mathing. Spirit abandoned 90 routes during the death spiral. Fares on those routes are up 14% on average. Oakland to Newark: $135 to $288. Fort Myers to San Juan: $92 to $219. Kansas City to Newark up 66%. That’s reality. Not some BS number from a “study.” So @SenWarren tell me how this saves the consumer money? Cheap carriers in a market drop fares 21% across the board. Southwest did this in the 90s and saved Americans $68 BILLION over 20 years. Warren killed it. That’s what moronic politicians led by socialism do. Then with her own blind arrogance, she tweeted Spirit’s collapse is “a Biden win for flyers.” A win. 14,000 people are reading termination letters tonight. And she’s taking credit. This is socialism in 2026. A senator who’s never made payroll thinks she knows how to run a market better than the people who own and work in the company. She saved you a billion on imaginary paper. She cost you ten times that in real life. She didn’t protect consumers from anything. 14,000+ will go from working to welfare. She will make sure to blame billionaires, hardworking tax payers, AI, capitalism and whatever monster they will make up tomorrow hiding under your bed. Higher taxes. Fewer jobs. More expensive everything. She called it a win. I hope you enjoy winning.

@Mike_Pence Wait. You talk about the massive failings of the current administration and turn it into an anti-Democrat talking point? You ARE part of the problem. Claim to be fiscally conservative yet was V.P. under the 2nd worst admin in US history (only behind THIS admin." Look Inward.

The National Debt Now Exceeds the Size of the American Economy. Get ready for Democrats to clamor for higher taxes. But as Reagan said, “the problem is not that people are taxed too little, the problem is that government spends too much" For our children and grandchildren, Republicans must lead the way, back to a Balanced Federal Budget, with fiscal discipline and reform. If we don’t, no one will.

@ddale8 The phrase is used in the restaurant biz to mean that something is out or something needs to get thrown out, like "86 the soup of the day." Any other interpretation is MAGA being intentionally stupid. We ALL knew he meant Trump needs to be impeached.

Entirely sincere question: has anyone seen a mafia movie in which a mobster orders a murder by saying "86 'em"?

@NoLieWithBTC Before that lawsuit would ever get decided Trump will be long gone and the stations can continue to broadcast during litigation. Can't happen. Wont happen. Its all bluster.

The FCC is now moving to potentially revoke Disney and ABC's broadcast licenses to punish Jimmy Kimmel for making jokes about Trump.

@signingtime50 @CleGuardians @fox8news @cleveland19news Printing tickets cost money. And, yhe Guards leave all the money on the field. I cant even type that with a straight face.

@CleGuardians @fox8news @cleveland19news Can anyone answer me why the team refuses to sell tickets to anyone who doesn’t have a smart phone? I have tried to buy 20 tickets for family to game today to see the game and since I don’t have a smart phone they won’t print me tickets

@clevelanddotcom Loving all the racist hate from the cowards hiding their racist faces behind masks and avatars. It is possible to want to protect US farmers without actually being a farmer.

🔗: l.cleveland.com/drgk6k U.S. Rep. Shontel Brown wants to be the most powerful voice for farmers and hungry Americans in Congress. First, she has to get past primary and general election opponents who say she hasn’t done enough for the people back home.

Something is rotten in Denmark.

@ClekroX @KalshiPolitics @CaseyPutschOhio @CaseyPutsch That is not a very good platform.

@KalshiPolitics Hell no. Vivek is a Trojan horse, Obama 2.0. Vote for a real American. Vote @CaseyPutschOhio @CaseyPutsch

NEW ALL-TIME HIGH: Vivek Ramaswamy has a 97.6% chance of being the Ohio Republican Governor nominee

@NFL @Eagles @NFLPlus Gym skills = 100% Football skills = 0% Bang the combine results when the film sucks, bang the tape when the combine results suck. And, that, folks, is why most scouts just pimp dudes they "like."

4.63 at 306 pounds. 👀 The @Eagles got themselves a crazy athlete in Uar Bernard from the International Player Pathway Program. NFL Draft on NFLN/ESPN/ABC Stream on @NFLPlus

@Topps PR of 1,000,000.

Tom Brady is a buyer on Fernando Mendoza's first NFL rookie card 👀

@hatcherj10 @guillefernandes @thaisaustin @MarioNawfal I've stayed at that hotel during that event. Yes, the FBI vets everyone staying in that hotel during the event.

@guillefernandes @thaisaustin @MarioNawfal I doubt the secret service looks in all 1100 guest rooms. They are saying that the shooter is from California. He most likely booked a room days before to scope out the place.

🚨🇺🇸 BREAKING MAJOR UPDATE: Full picture emerging from the White House Correspondents' Dinner shooting... -Suspect assembled a "long" weapon in a lightly monitored area near the terrace-level entrance, according to a volunteer witness -The room had bar carts being stored and "no security" at the time -Witness Helen Mabus said the gun "didn't look like a typical gun" and was assembled from a bag -Gunman then rushed toward the stairs leading down to the ballroom -Opened fire in multiple directions, witness estimates "at least 10 shots" -A law enforcement officer was struck, hit in the vest, condition unclear -One person in custody, Trump and Melania safe Secret Service and Metro Police actively investigating The fact that someone could assemble a long gun from a bag inside the venue, in a room with no security, before charging the ballroom is a massive security failure that's going to define every conversation tomorrow.

@JeffMoDEAN @Jeremyinakron17 Guy didnt get close.

@Jeremyinakron17 What I miss?

Iran behind this assassination attempt ?

@mercebent I've never seen a SAFE get valued for the seed round at a high percentage of share distribution.

My rule of thumb: never sell more than 20-25% of equity on SAFEs why? if you raise too much on SAFEs, it will hurt your future fundraises i've seen this happen a lot. raising on SAFEs is so seductive because its simple + quick but the total ownership impact at the seed or A can be really large if too much was given away your first priced round can see 50% of the company being given away but an investor has to convert that to a priced round and if too much ownership has already been given away, it disincentivizes future investors from wanting to price a round where founders will end up owning too little then founders will say its okay you can clean up the cap table, can cram down my existing investors but VCs aren't set up to do recaps easily or well. its' just not our normal transaction. and it's a lot more headache than its worth most VCs want as clean a deal as possible so my rule of thumb is to never sell more than 20-25% of equity on SAFEs. If you're raising more, move to a priced round.
