Phang: These firings were illegal in the first fucking place.

It’s like the Republicans are supposed to think that they’ve now done something right by not doing what is illegal in the first place.

Speaker Johnson has literally said he's "not promising anyone anything."

Newsom: They want to wash my mouth out with soap. Without any situational awareness that they've said not a word about Donald Trump dressing up as the Pope. Donald Trump putting his picture up on mount Rushmore. Donald Trump sending insane all cap tweets that are just madness.

Call in the troops to solve the commercial real estate crisis in our swanky downtown cores

You can’t make this shit up, folks
The Miracle Mile Shopping Center in Chicago, once considered our Nation’s BEST, now has a more than 28% vacancy factor, and is ready to call it quits unless something is done about the murder and crime, which is prevalent throughout the City. CALL IN THE TROOPS, FAST, BEFORE IT IS TOO LATE! “Just the News”

Oh, so he totally stole the money
The U.S. Supreme Court was given the wrong numbers. The “unwind” in the event of a negative decision on Tariffs, would be, including investments made, to be made, and return of funds, in excess of 3 Trillion Dollars. It would not be possible to ever make up for that kind of a “drubbing.” That would truly become an insurmountable National Security Event, and devastating to the future of our Country - Possibly non-sustainable!

“the union cited bills passed in the Democrat-controlled Legislature over the past two sessions, some sponsored by Democratic lawmakers, that raised per-pupil funding and teacher pay and increased school accountability”
Dems did it…so they endorsed a MAGA Republican?

“whatever club he’s invited to join has been devalued by the invitation”
Tweet by Joyce Carol Oates: "wherever he goes, he wants to leave"--that's because when he gets there, he has brought his own self along; & whatever club he's invited to join has been devalued by the invitation. QT of @avidreader1000 Wherever he goes, he wants to leave: SA, Canada, ultimately the U.S. in the long run, based on his behavior. This also includes Earth. A continuous disavowal of your home is odd, to say the least. He seems to have no c...

Turns out solving the housing affordability crisis is a lot harder than the 50-year mortgage scam that Donald the Terrible is floating:
Economist Jim Bianco on Trump’s new 50-year mortgage scheme: “Great, ‘innovative’ mortgage financing is returning! Anyone remember these ‘innovations’ leading into the 2007/2008 financial crisis ... NINJA Loans and “Liar Loans” (”No Income, No Job, Approved,”) Adjustable-Rate Mortgages (ARMs) Interest-Only and Negative Amortization Loans 100% and “Over 100%” Loan-to-Value Loans Alt-A and Option ARM Loans … “What the public needs is LOWER home prices. To accomplish that, you need ALL home prices to go down, meaning current homeowners have to take a (unrealized) loss. Mortgage innovation is an acknowledgment that home prices are too high and unaffordable for the average first-time homebuyer. Instead of lowering prices, we stand on our heads to find ways for non-homebuyers to ‘afford’ current prices through innovations in mortgage finance. How did that work out?”

Yet again...
ICE is not protecting us
ICE is threatening us
Abolish ICE:
Left Voice: “Nearly a dozen cars surrounded a car wash in the Boston neighborhood of Allston-Brighton where masked agents blocked entrances and prohibited anyone from leaving. They quickly detained 9 people working outside during the raid, including 6 women, while kids inside the car wash watched as their mother was taken away.” … “Workers were not allowed to go inside to retrieve their work permits or identification, and ICE made no effort to enter the facility to identify anyone they were arresting. These workers were kidnapped and whisked away in one of the largest workplace ICE raids Massachusetts has ever seen.”

"Why don't you just do what we say?"
WH Economic Advisor Kevin Hassett was asked outside the WH today about Trump’s lies that grocery prices are down. Q - “When Trump says grocery prices are down, what numbers is he basing that off given it’s not true? Hassett: Inflation is down. Reporter: But grocery prices are up. Hassett: Not everything. Egg prices are down. Why haven’t you covered the egg prices? Reporter: We certainly have. But grocery prices are up about 1.4%.”

I think the air traffic controllers should all wear "negative mark" buttons to work from now on:
Trump: “All Air Traffic Controllers must get back to work, NOW!!! Anyone who doesn’t will be substantially “docked.” For those Air Traffic Controllers who were GREAT PATRIOTS, and didn’t take ANY TIME OFF for the “Democrat Shutdown Hoax,” I will be recommending a BONUS of $10,000 per person for distinguished service to our Country. For those that did nothing but complain, and took time off, even though everyone knew they would be paid, IN FULL, shortly into the future, I am NOT HAPPY WITH YOU. You didn’t step up to help the U.S.A. against the FAKE DEMOCRAT ATTACK that was only meant to hurt our Country. You will have a negative mark, at least in my mind, against your record. If you want to leave service in the near future, please do not hesitate to do so, with NO payment or severance of any kind! You will be quickly replaced by true Patriots, who will do a better job.” … Sen. Patty Murray (D-WA): “In the midst of a 40+ day Republican shutdown with major flight delays and being short 3,000 air traffic controllers, our INSANE President is ENCOURAGING ATCs to quit heading into the holiday season. Trump is taking a wrecking ball to our air safety infrastructure.”
