Four young soldiers were recovered after days of searching underwater & in the mud for them. This is why they were there…my homage in @BulwarkOnline to the “wrenches” and our allies. Be thou at peace www.thebulwark.com/p/why-we-tra...

The stock market is not the economy. The stock market is not the economy. The stock market is not the economy.

Nonetheless, holy shit.

What’s remarkable is that there’s hardly any real news driving this. It’s just investors belatedly realizing that Trump is who he is, and always was.

I'm going to try and stop cursing as much, so her it goes.

Gee whiz, I'm really fired up about how discombobulated everything seems to be these days.

Don't know who made this, but it's from the days when Sam Brownback was Kansas' (disaster of a) governor. Still, if Trump keeps on pursuing actions that hurt Kansas farmers (closing USAID; not monitoring the spread of avian flu in livestock; etc.), it's not hard to imagine an updating of this.

Went to an Asian grocery store in town and got various whole spices, spent about $16. At the Kroger-owned chain in town the exact same amount of stuff would have cost $180. (I did the math!)

On those new Trump tariffs: I don't think people realize how narrow they are. They're ugly and stupid, but also arguably an attempt to save face after he lost his nerve on broad tariffs

NEW: A Harris campaign organizer says senior officials ordered them to erase voters who asked about Gaza—marking emails as “no response” so they’d be removed from outreach. No engagement, no persuasion, just ignored. “The only clowns are the ones who decided to abdicate on this.”

BREAKING: Columbian President Petro announces that if there will be tariffs on Columbian goods, he will add 50% tariffs on US goods, and says he will not give in to retaliation.

He says, "I will resist you."
