Donald Trump is stealing $1 billion from the Pentagon to renovate his private plane from Quatar.

Why would he possibly want a private plane? I wonder. Maybe he misses his Epstein days so much he wants a re-enactment

That’s what it sounds like to me

On June 14—Flag Day—Donald Trump wants tanks in the street and a made-for-TV display of dominance for his birthday. A spectacle meant to look like strength. But real power isn’t staged in Washington. ...

The level of ignorance among Trump voters is staggering. It’s an indictment of American democracy

The news landscape should be more approachable and substantive

Schools should teach how to identify a dictator

I mean, voters had 1 job

Asia is de-investing $7.5 Trillion from the US

It’s hard to keep track of the trillions of losses that Trump has caused in the short term.

And we’ll be spending the next decades tracking his trillions of losses in the long term

Our finances are unsustainable

For those who don’t believe in God, but still want religion, consider a prayer to your lost loved ones.

Praying to people is very different than praying to a God. You don’t ask for anything.

Instead, it gives you a chance to apologize, to promise, to reflect, to feel gratitude for happy memories

How long will red state voters be Trump’s little bitches?

They depend more on Medicaid than blue state voters

They depend on renewable energy projects more than blue state voters

The “hate the man, love his policies” approach to Trump has been replaced by blind loyalty

At the expense of the GOP

Trump is asking the world to buy $4 trillion of bonds while making the dollar’s value less trustworthy

We’ll be less productive, have higher inflation, and less advancements in tech and energy

All to fund the gaudy lives of the wealthy. Yachts and gold toilets

This is such a do-nothing news cycle

- Israel: still cruel
- War in Ukraine: still devastating
- Congress: still reverse robin hooding
- Trump: still corrupt
- Biden: still old, but — this just in — now he’s also sick…but will still live another 5-10 years, which matches his prognosis for being old

NPR reports:

“The dollar's already in decline. The percentage of reserve currencies held by central banks in dollars has been drifting lower and lower. It peaked at 73% in 2001. It is now 58%”

The world has been subsidizing our way of life by purchasing our currency. It doesn’t have to be that way

Although it’s unpopular to say so, the debt actually is becoming a real problem

Trump has spent more, not less
The deficit is rising
The dollar is falling
And now servicing the debt will be more expensive

Fiscal collapse is not likely, but runaway inflation is

How ludicrous is it that a significant portion of the population wants more education, but can’t get it?!

When ppl say that they want to gain more skills and add more value to the economy and we tell them “no”, it is self-sabotaging to our nation

Maybe China can afford to waste ppl, we cannot

Ports in Seattle and LA have been empty! East coast soon will follow!

CEO of JP Morgan, who’s incentivized to share positive outlooks on the economy, said that the best case scenario is a “mild recession”
This isn't hypothetical.

The coming days are bringing higher prices and disrupted supply chains, this time not because of a pandemic or a war, but self-inflicted by our country's government under this president.

And instead of more manufacturing, less manufacturing

And less jobs in general
And less social programs to help
And higher prices

And the polls are totally lying

Hear me out.

Instead of many dolls, how about fewer, more expensive dolls?

You’re welcome.
