Absolutely insane
Because of a conspiracy theory-based stunt by a January 6 insurrectionist who was trying to intimidate children and daycare workers, Trump is now freezing ALL childcare payments across the country.

As a former Google employee, I giggled so hard at this.
This ad about how great Google Gemini is ends by telling us how Ted, the protagonist and a big James Blunt fan, “found something he didn’t even know he was looking for” at a James Blunt concert where James Blunt is playing not “High” by James Blunt but “She’s So High” by Tal Bachman.

I suspected some of the "fundraising orgs for the Dems" were scams (and possibly right-wing-fomented scams). But I didn't know for sure. I was careful to make sure my donations were through her authorized website.
More than 660 MILLION was stolen from Harris and Dems.
This makes me very angry.

As we continue to message around Epstein and health care and ICE, let’s remember that THE most important message to keep hammering is this:
Trump’s economy sucks, and it’s all his fault.
The economy will always be the biggest shaper of public opinion.

Got my latest #tariff bill for the container I imported. $27,000 of truck parts (Freightliner, Mack, etc) cost $20,000 in tariffs. Last February it was $8,000.

NYC, tonight. Flash flooding has significantly affected the subway. This is the 28th Street station of the No. 1 train. The 1 is out, and the 2 and 3 trains are back in service with severe delays. E, F, M, and R trains are a mess too.
Oh, and do *not* drive. Stay home.

Transpacific trade is already seizing up because of the tariffs.
Three weeks ago, about 60,000 TEU (a measure of container volume) were scheduled to be "blanked" from April 16-May 10 (cancelled voyages/stops at a port). Now the figure is *367,800*
