Lemme try to reconcile a strong stock market with a weak economy.
The market represents the big incumbents with a line to the White House. As policy tilts toward crony capitalism, they're offered a carveout-for-compliments deal. Main Street gets no such deal.
Result—Weak economy yet strong stonks

Two facts worth considering:
1. The Fed is projecting GDP growth of 1.4% this year
2. Nearly every time growth has slowed to this rate, the economy stalls, and a recession follows

An independent evaluation of who gets what from the Republican tax bill just dropped, and wow.
This chart shows only the tax cut side of things, and they only find the rich. The spending cuts, which are separate, somehow only find the poor.

New: The crypto folks who bought the President's memecoin in order to attend his elite dinner tomorrow spent over $1 million each on average, and nearly $400 million in total. Per @molly.wiki, nearly 3/4 appear to be foreign nationals who'd be legally barred from donating cash to candidate Trump.

If a foreign adversary snuck into our Federal budget and cut science research and education the way we’re cutting it ourselves — strategically undermining America’s long-term health, wealth, and security — we would likely consider it an act of war.

Ronny Jackson is our Official Representative in the US Congress. He’s too busy and important to hold a town hall. So Beto @betoorourke.bsky.social did it instead. #Amarillo
