How it started vs How it ended
The latest polls regarding the German election are slightly optimistic.

• CDU/CSU: 29,1%
• AfD: 20,9%
• SPD: 15,6%
• Greens: 13,1%
• Left: 6,1%

At risk of missing the 5% threshold
• BSW: 4,3%
• FDP: 3,9%

CDU/CSU + SPD + Greens + Left: 63,9% (+ the redistributed % from BSW and FDP)

Trump has outsourced "thinking" to the stock market.

He does something, markets crash? He reverses his decision and acts like he solved the problem he himself created.

He doesn't need to think, he lets markets think for him just like he gets people to read in his stead.

The only thing stoping Trump from becoming Hitler is the fact Hitler was only 43 when he became chancellor. Trump will not live to see enough years.

Here's to hoping the mid term elections come before he dismantles them.

"Don't prosecute Trump, he'll become a martyr", "Don't ban him from social media, he'll become a martyr"
Consider the possibility that the Trump White House WANTS this fight. Wants journalists to act like opponents instead of observers. If the entire press pool skipped a Trump photo op in solidarity with The AP, wouldn't the White House welcome Breitbart and One America News to take their places?
And, are you or your colleagues boycotting covering the WH as a protest?

This is your reminder that $TSLA's P/E Ratio is currenty sitting at 175. EIGHT TIMES higher than the S&P 500 (P/E Ratio = 22).

The P/E Ratio stands for Price-to-earnings ratio and indicates whether a company seems overvalued or undervalued.

Tesla is OVERVALUED at this point and it will get worse

The thing about measles is we don't know what to expect. It's highly contagious but what we don't know is how this virus can mutate/has mutated or will mutate.

One thing is certain, all of these things, left unchecked or downplayed by the new administration will result in horrible consequences.

Mark my words: Trump will default on some debts, taking a "what you gon' do about it" attitude.

Forget most of these countries need their money to pay their debts back to China.

China will for sure do something about it.

Trump'll back down, claim he "fixed it", shouting he's a hero

It's crazy how Harry Potter and The Order of the Phoenix shows exactly what Elon, Trump and their ass-kissers are now doing.

There's nothing I hate more than having an argument online and they go bring up scripture. Like:

Me: 1+1= 2

Them: Yeah, but, actually: Psalm 1:01 says "Do re mi fa sol la si do" which clearly means 1+1 is not 2. You're a sinner and will burn in hell.

Nancy Mace can't stop tweeting about how she needs to #Holdtheline and protect womanhood. It's bordering instanity.

This kind of overcompensation and that sharp-ass jawline makes me think something's up.

Maybe I'm just wired to believe every accusation is a confesion when it comes to MAGA.

Actually took the time and battled a troll for 30 minutes on X/Twitter. A waste of time? Yes.

But I did learn something important, they are very emotional, facts don't matter to them but if you peel back their persona they back off and go cry in a corner.

It would be so funny if Democrats could flip Gaetz' open seat. Even though it's a R+30 district.

I'm even more thankful for Khabib after Conor McGregor was found guilty of sexual and physical abuse. Conor got to feel like his victim.

I actually believe the opposite. The best thing that can happen is that the Senate approves them. These are one of the most incompetent people one can have.

Their own incompetence and inefficiency will stop them from ever doing any damage.
At this point, democrats have to concentrate on stopping the ones that will do the most damage.

Forget the distraction nominees. Focus on the serious threats.

Gaetz, Gabbard and Hegseth remain the most problematic.

Honestly? With the exception of very specific cases I will never worry about the financial position of an elderly person when our wages barely grow by a few percentages with raging inflation.

The generation that constantly votes for racists doesn't need my help.

Democrat Adam Gray is now only 227 votes behind with 97% of the votes counted. This is the last competitive seat in California that the Democrats can flip, ensuring the Republican incumbent John Duarte will not gain re-election.
