It’s absolutely bonkers that politicians can trade individual stocks, while being in charge of policies directly affecting said stocks. Both sides are just as guilty

BREAKING: Trump bought millions in stocks after the Iran war dip. He also has had unusual large gains. You can see some of his top gains here, where he has made millions. Unusual.

Repairs to the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool will now cost $13.1 million.
Trump had promised $1.8 million.
The Interior Department added $6.2 million to the no-bid contract for repairs late last week.

@BackDoorProps Did he ever hook him? His arm was doing exactly what McDaniels arm was doing

Love that call on Castle. He gets away with the off arm a ton and is a slept on flopper.

Hassett on American consumers: "Credit card spending is through the roof. They're spending more on gasoline, but they're spending more on everything else too."

@LonestarMoney Check out flagstaff on Zillow. It’s wild, like most mountain towns unfortunately

This house raised a full family on one income…
Today most people wouldn’t even consider buying it.
But here’s a perspective most people ignore 👇
This right here 👇
Was the starter home.
The home a family was raised in…
On ONE factory worker salary.
With a stay-at-home mom.
And it wasn’t some dream setup:
• ~1,000 sq ft
• 2 bedrooms, 1–1.5 baths
• One TV in the entire house
• No internet, no cable
• No dishwasher
• No granite, no “open concept”
• Basic kitchen, basic finishes
• No covered patio, no outdoor oasis
Just a simple house…
That did its job.
They didn’t start with their “forever home.”
They built toward it.
Today?
We want bigger, newer, nicer — immediately.
Better finishes. Better neighborhoods. More space. More convenience.
So yes… housing is more expensive.
But expectations have also skyrocketed.
Truth is:
Part of the affordability problem is economic…
And part of it is lifestyle inflation.
Both can be true.

This seems not great

RFK Jr: "A Democratic senator claimed it's mathematically impossible to have a drug drop by 600%. I said, 'Well, if the drug was $100 and it raises to $600, that would be a 600% rise. If it drops from $600 to $100, that's a 600% savings.'" Trump: "Right"

@MikeCollinsGA Pretty sure you need one to register to vote, and you need to be registered to actually vote. Voter id is a made up problem by Trump to justify him breaking the law
English
You need an ID to board a plane.
You need an ID to buy cold medicine.
You need an ID to open a bank account.
But Democrats think you shouldn't need one to vote.
The SAVE America Act fixes that. Jon Ossoff is standing in the way.

‘We can’t invest in America because we’re fighting wars’ is literally the opposite of what he ran on.
Biggest scam in modern political history, hands down.

Trump: We can't take care of daycare. We're a big country. We're fighting wars. It's not possible for us to take care of daycare, Medicaid, Medicare, all these things.

This is the most corrupt administration we have ever seen.
And it isn’t even close.

I want you to understand how unusual this is. 6:49 AM on Monday: A sudden surge in oil futures trading, approximately $580 million in volume, no news, no announcement, nothing public. 7:05 AM: Trump announces a pause on Iran strikes. Markets move immediately. Roughly $580 million in contracts were placed about 16 minutes ahead of the news. Unusual.

@KevinOConnor @DannyParkins I think it’s a valid question since the Spurs also have Castle. Castle, Wemby, and a top 5 shooter in Knueppel would be sick. Hard to go wrong either way

Am I crazy for saying Kon Knueppel over Dylan Harper in a Spurs re-draft?
“Yes. I think that’s crazy.”—@DannyParkins
Kevin O'Connor@KevinOConnor
New pod! @DannyParkins joins to talk Lakers, JDub, OKC, Spurs, if I’m crazy for saying Kon over Harper, Darryn Peterson’s upside, the death of Cinderellas, and more in NBA and NCAA. APPLE: tinyurl.com/mwdxfwzj SPOTIFY: tinyurl.com/csnwsknj YOUTUBE: youtu.be/K5CgEFY2kFg
