How is this NOT market manipulation? The flip-flopping announcements of tariffs then pulling back riiiight at the last minute or going back on terms just to then have the market rebound in some capacity feels intentional 😒 Like is every month going to be this way for the next four years?

Things still terrible, but: Viktor Orban was unable to stop protests in Budapest; Musk's money couldn't win the Wisconsin Supreme Court for Repugs; Marine Lepen is fuming over her court loss in Paris; and Corey Booker made a bravura stand against Trump in the Senate. More days like this please.

Something is fundamentally wrong with America when millions of dollars can’t buy you a Wisconsin Supreme Court seat, the respect of your children, the silence of your baby mammas, or a functional penis implant.

No Dem Senator has to follow Schumer here. This is a weak stategic move driven by fear and learned helplessness. Don't follow him. He's leading the party into irrelevance and helping Trump and Musk in the process.
Call your Dem Senators and ask them not to join Schumer's surrender tomorrow.

SCHUMER just now: "While the CR bill is very bad, the potential for a shutdown has consequences for America that are much, much worse."

It’d be SUPER COOL if the @democrats.org’s way to “communicate their opposition” was more than just optics and color coordinating OOTDs 🤦🏻♀️
Every day, something is getting dismantled/messed with (today is Dept. of Ed.!) and it’s the same wimpy-ass response. Grow a spine, y’all!

Happy Shut the Fuck Up Friday 🥳🤐
As an offshoot of this thread, let’s talk about what happens if federal, state, or local officials text, email, call, or show up at your door wanting to talk to you about what you said about the President.
I have a theme, a thesis, a throughline, a leitmotif, which is SHUT YOUR FUCKING MOUTH.
