Big tech oligarchs are eating the seed corn.

If there is a solid return on investment for AI data centers, why are the big tech oligarchs asking Trump for even more government handouts from taxpayers that are already giving up their jobs, their planet, and investment in them?

What the hell? Do we live in bizzarro world? "If you want a country, you've got to fight like hell!" Who in the world does not know that Donald Trump encouraged and led the Jan 6 insurrection? Just look at Mitch McConnel's speech at the impeachment. No need for any suggestion talk.

If Donald Trump's dementia did not prevent him from understanding reality then he'd be wishing he had Joe Biden's job approval numbers.

MAGA promises to unleash business by getting rid of pesky government regulation. Yet after the businesses declare bankruptcy, the government must foot the bill to clean up the mess and the people suffer from the pollution.

The news media told us that Donald Trump had delivered "peace in the middle east" for the first time in 3,000 years. It would have been nice if that was true. But alas, the news media once again lied to us.

Inflation is up 3% while increase to social security is only increase by 2.8%. And groceries ( I know an old fashioned term) are up even more. Folks dependent on social security are worse off.

Why do we only find honest and unbiased reporting from an economist's substack post?
MSNBC is supposed to be the "liberal" channel, why cannot they at least cover the issue of Donald Trump's delusional behavior????

Well, that did not last long. So much for "Peace in the Middle East". But Trump got what he wanted, a slavering of praise from MSNBC and other "fake news" outlets.
