The entire project of advanced education is about believing it's worthwhile to do the hard work of learning to understand difficult things and express your understanding in your own words.

Remember that time New York elected a Muslim mayor and MAGA shit their pants saying Sharia law was coming to NYC, and then like a week later Trump gave F-35's to Saudi Arabia, the capital of Wahabbi fundamentalist Islam, where 17 of 19 9/11 hijackers were citizens? Just to open Trump Tower Riyadh?

Q: Why is the US dollar dropping in value?
A: The US dollar was strong a year ago. Demand for the dollar is now plummeting, thanks in large part to Trump’s antagonistic trade policies which have created global economic uncertainty.

Republicans sure are pulling out all the stops to wield the government against Texas Democrats. Warrants, FBI, court processes. Not a second wasted. Goes to show that if they *wanted* to bring Epstein's clients to justice, they could. They just don't want to.

First they illegally deport citizens. Then they unleash ICE to terrorize communities. Now they’ve got the National Guard in L.A. to silence protestors.
This ain’t about law and order.
This is what authoritarianism looks like.

Trump’s VA quietly ended a key program that helped Veterans avoid foreclosure. Now thousands are at risk of losing their homes—with no replacement in place.
Just more proof that Trump has zero respect for those who’ve served.

Oligarchs to us:
Is not this simpler? Is this not your natural state? It is the unspoken truth of humanity that you crave subjugation. The bright lure of freedom diminishes your life's joy in a mad scramble for power. For identity. You were made to be ruled. In the end, you will always kneel.

Trump Tariffs Hit Antarctic Islands Inhabited by Zero Humans and Many Penguins
The Heard and McDonald Islands are among the dozens of targets of President Donald Trump's latest round of tariffs. But they have no exports, because no one lives there.

I wonder how many people are willing to go or send their kids to invade Greenland, Gaza, or Panama? Are Americans really ready to start another war just to make Daddy Don feel better about himself? Lets have a show of hands, who wants to die in the name of imperialism?

Elon updated DOGE, claiming to have fixed the mistakes we all pointed out. But instead of correcting them, he just added more false claims. He even inflated his so-called “savings” total from $55 billion to $65 billion, when in reality, the actual increase is only from $2 billion to $2.3 billion.

Let’s get something clear. The GOP has the power to keep the government from shutting down in March. They control both chambers of Congress and the White House. If they can’t reach a budget deal within their own ranks, that completely on them.
