An oldie but a goodie.

25 years later and nothing has topped this ending

JD Vance is lecturing the Pope on Catholicism and Pierre Poilievre is lecturing Mark Carney on economics and RFK Jr is lecturing scientists about vaccines and Donald Trump is lecturing the world on tariffs and Pete Hegseth is quoting Pulp Fiction and thinking it’s the Bible

One of the things I always appreciated about the Obama administration was having Sasha and Malia Obama negotiating with other countries in some of the world hot spots. That's a diplomatic tradition that I hope moves forward.

@dcnh42 @glukianoff Oh FFS.

@glukianoff The Espionage Act may have something to say about that.

“CNN is being ordered to immediately withdraw this Statement with full apologies for their, as usual, terrible “reporting.” Results of the investigation will be announced in the near future. President DONALD J. TRUMP” Yeah, the first amendment prevents you from being able to order any such thing, Mr. President.

Trump is planning to bomb Iran's bridges and power plants. It looks like infrastructure week is finally here.

@gregkellyusa Shut the fuck up.

Everyone so “Horrified”at President TRUMP and his language. GIVE ME A BREAK. This is the way people TALK. Get Over it. It’s barely lunch Time and I’ve heard the F word on the streets of NYC a dozen times. TRUMP is Keeping it Real—-WE ARE GOING TO WIN!

What a time to be alive.

So, let me get this straight. Trump is now simultaneously claiming that he has won the war, is currently winning the war, needs help to win the war, and doesn't need help to win the war. All to destroy the nuclear program he claims he already destroyed last year.

One Year On: The Greatest Economic Own Goal in Living Memory A year ago, Donald Trump stood in the Rose Garden, surrounded by charts nobody understood, and declared war on mathematics. He called it Liberation Day. The Financial Times, along with every economist who has read more than a bus ticket, is marking the anniversary with a verdict that should be carved into marble: it failed. On every single front. Spectacularly. Completely. Embarrassingly. Let us be precise about this. Measured against Trump’s own three stated goals, making foreigners pay for doing business with America, narrowing the trade deficit, and punishing China, the tariffs have clearly failed.  Not partially failed. Not failed with asterisks. Failed the way a man fails when he drives a Reliant Robin onto a motorway and acts surprised when it rolls. And everyone said so. Economists said so. Trading partners said so. His own party said so. The entire field of international trade theory, developed over roughly two centuries by people who actually read things, screamed it from the rooftops. But Donald Trump, a man whose relationship with economics appears to consist entirely of gut feeling and cable television and 6 casino bankruptcies knew better. The average American household paid an extra $1,700 due to tariffs. Over 65 percent of Americans reported that everyday goods became significantly less affordable.  This is what happens when you run the world’s largest economy on instinct and vibes. One year after the Rose Garden ceremony, factory jobs are down and inflation is up.  The precise opposite of what was promised. With extraordinary confidence. Then the lawyers arrived. The Supreme Court found that Trump had exceeded his authority, ruling that the declared emergency bore no rational connection to the trade measures imposed.  In other words, the legal foundation was nonsense. The government had collected $166 billion in tariffs from over 330,000 businesses on grounds the Supreme Court found unconstitutional. The refund process is now underway.  One hundred and sixty-six billion dollars. Collected illegally. From American businesses. The financial markets, bless them, responded with the only appropriate tool available: mockery. The meme “Trump Always Chickens Out” refuses to go away, and the TACO index is now actively used by analysts to price in the president’s chronic habit of retreating.  Every serious voice warned this would happen. Trade economists. Former Treasury secretaries. The IMF. The WTO. The EU. Canada. Japan. Basically anyone who had spent more than forty minutes studying how global trade actually works. The man who ignored all of them had previously run a casino into bankruptcy and considered that a learning experience. He was not, it turns out, a fast learner. One year. Zero of three goals achieved. One Supreme Court ruling. One $170 billion refund. One economy paying more for everything and making less of it. Liberation Day. What a name for it.

To understand Trump's greatness - the number of times America has defeated a country. Germany - 2 times (1918, 1945) Japan - 1 time (1945) Iran - 18 times (2025-2026)

@TimSheehyMT @POTUS You realize no games are played on that day anyway, right? Is this what you do on a Friday, sit around and kiss the President’s fat ass?

Thank you, @POTUS, for protecting America’s Game. Go Navy! 🇺🇸

This could be the single dumbest thing our country has ever done.

@Acyn Montana Proud! 🙄

Ingraham: Was it an imminent threat in your mind? Sheehy: No question. They've been murdering us for half century— Ingraham: That’s not imminent is it? Sheehy: I think it is.

@TimSheehyMT Do you need a good cry? Ffs why aren’t you asking the important questions instead of rubber stamping everything Trump does. You are an embarrassment compared to Senator Mike Mansfield. What a shame.

CNN’s coverage of the Iran conflict has been incredibly dishonest. Why are certain reporters acting like the Ayatollah’s propagandists?

@IngrahamAngle STFU

Obama, the Great Uniter: Valerie Jarrett reveals that President Trump isn't invited to Obama Presidential Center opening ceremony foxnews.com/media/valerie-… #FoxNews

Believe it or not, one can criticize Trump & it doesn’t mean they: 1)Didn’t criticize Obama 2)Didn’t criticize Biden 3)Is a Democrat 4)Hates America 6)Is “with the terrorists!” It means they are capable of critical thinking & don’t allow personality to preclude principles.
