I’m not distracted by Gaza takeover, giveaways to Putin, or threats to DC and Latin America. Nor am I distracted by TX/IL drama, rescheduling pot, or Sydney Sweeney’s jeans (ok, maybe a little). Keep the Epstein pressure on, everyone. He’s scared, cornered and desperate.

What this tells me is that we’re headed into a recession.
Hassett on economic impact of the reconciliation bill: "You're looking at 4 percent growth, which I think is an upside that is completely possible." (Bookmark this.)

Thinking about the whole “eliminate toxic people from your life” thing. Sad, but ultimately necessary.

I was happier when I thought the Pirates were blacked out tonight. Heck of a performance on national broadcast, guys.

Ah, the meaningless thud of another end to the #PL season. I know purists hate it, but a 3 team playoff would be so exciting. Liverpool hosts the championship game, awaits winner of 3 at 2 seed play in game. It would actually make the last few weeks mean something. Those games would be huge.

President: I’m so rich, I don’t need a salary.
Taxpayers: Thank you, sir. 🙏
In return, we’d like to throw you a HUGE military parade, and buy all your rounds of golf at your own course.

Most men in this country think gym shorts and flip flops are acceptable out of the house, so yeah, this is shocking.

The line between “being up to date on the news and especially the authoritarian ambitions of our current President” and “checking out, logging off and focusing on joy, mental health and well being” has never been finer.

We’ve already been chastised for packing our lunches, hurting the restaurant industry, and now this. Looks like we should be cooking at home even more now that the local bar and grill is more dangerous. This admin is just so damn dumb.

And the good news just keeps on coming, although I guess they’ve already stolen and sold off our data 🤷♂️ at least Turbo Tax’s will get richer.
The Trump admin plans to eliminate the free portal that would likely save Americans $11 billion annually in tax prep fees and deliver $12 billion in unclaimed tax credits to low-income families.
That would be a clear handout to tax prep companies.

Trump administration plans to end the IRS Direct File program for free tax filing, AP sources say

Trump tells his followers to buy stock in the morning, minutes after the market opens, then announces he is pausing tariffs 4 hours later.
Nothing to see here.

Watch for those who benefit from this mayhem. Recessions are good for the uber rich who can play the long game. Not so good for everyone else.
