Remember that time Elon Musk bought Twitter, fired most of the staff and now Twitter runs like shit, doesn’t follow its own rules, lies to and manipulates its users and glitches every Monday? Yeah - that’s what he did to the government too.

Good fucking Luck, Social Security.

We could have had a decent, rational human being leading us into a future of possibility where everyone could have a seat at the table but now we don’t.

This reality show premise of finding the dumbest MFer in the country and making him president isn’t going well. Season 1 sucked. Season 2 is much worse.

Tariffs might be Trump’s favorite word. To legendary investor Warren Buffett, there’s less to be excited about.

“Tariffs are actually — we’ve had a lot of experience with them — they’re an act of war, to some degree,” Buffett said. They serve as a tax on goods and could raise prices for consumers.

Ron DeSantis has claimed the authority to just remove from office several elected Dem prosecutors for things like refusing to prosecution abortions; as well as elected school board members and at least one elected sheriff.

He just signed a new law this week that expands his power to do this.
