Japanese and Chinese markets are down 8% and 10% respectively. Black Friday in 1929 was -11%. Tomorrow could easily be the worst crash in American history.

The worst thing? It’s 100% intentional.

It’s time for Sen Chuck Schumer to step down as Minority Leader. Quite frankly, it should’ve happened already.

🚨NEW: Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth is planning to fire Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff C.Q. Brown, a 4-Star General and 41-year veteran of the Air Force who flew over 130 hours in combat as a fighter pilot.

REPOST if you stand with General C.Q. Brown against Hegseth!

WASH POST: “Farmers report missing millions of dollars of funding they were promised by USAID despite promises from Trump a federal funding freeze would not apply to projects directly benefiting individuals…”

Judge Amy Berman Jackson just issued an "administrative stay" letting Hampton Dellinger continue to serve as head of the Office of Special Counsel. Trump fired him Fri. despite 4 yrs left on his statutory term, with removal only for "inefficiency, neglect or malfeasance." ...

👀 DOJ acknowledges making two significant errors during a court hearing last week on efforts to dismantle USAID

1) It said only 500 employees had been placed on leave. Actual number was 2,140.

2) Said only future contracts were stopped. Existing contracts were also stopped.

You know, it just may be—I know it’s hard to believe, but please, hear me out—that our felonious president and premier digital rapist may be an gullible, easily manipulated dumbass.
Any news outlet reporting Mexico conceded anything to Trump to get him to delay tariffs has not done its homework.
Trump boasts he got Mexico to commit to stationing 10K troops at our border. Apparently he didn't realize Mexico already has 15K troops deployed there

No cooperation.

No collaboration.

No compromise.

Maximum resistance.

Maximum disruption.

Start there and get tougher.

Collins: He said that Canada is going to be implementing a $1.3 billion border plan, where they talk about reinforcing the border. I should note that's actually something that was announced back in December

So lets recap:

- Trump announces tariffs.
- Allies turn against the U.S., launch boycotts on U.S. products and boo us at events.
- Markets nosedive.
- Trump caves.

The "deals":
- Mexico agrees to do the same things they always do at the border to help the U.S. (including under Biden) 1/

A reminder that on this site folks may be aware that Trump got basically nothing new or substantive from Mexico or Canada but over on the other place, and out in parts of the real world, the GOP are successfully and ruthlessly spinning these as wins. They are messaging masters, Dems aren’t. Sorry 🤷🏽‍♂️
