The CEO of J.P. Morgan, Jamie Dimon, just sold 133,639 shares worth around $31.5 million.

If that doesn’t tell you something about the state of our economy under Donald Trump, I don’t know what will.

DOGE has not only failed to cut government costs, it has increased them.

Trump's first month in office showed federal spending of $603 billion in February.

$36 billion higher than last February.

A record high for that month, and up 6%.

Musk is attempting to blame Ukraine for the X cyberattack, but word has already spread that it was a false flag. What is a false flag? A false flag operation is an act committed to disguise the actual source of responsibility and shift blame onto another party.

This was a disgusting display by the soft, uninformed VP Vance trying to school Zelensky, the man who has led his country through the most surprisingly resilient and effective fight for sovereignty against a global superpower.

Every negative stereotype about America is confirmed in this exchange.
ZELENSKYY: Putin broke the ceasefire. What kind of diplomacy, JD, are you speaking about?

VANCE: I think it's disrespectful to come into the Oval Office and try to litigate this in front of the American media

This is the R’s budget and they're going to own it.

They're trying to cut Medicaid funding. They're trying to cut SNAP benefits. They're trying to take out all the programs that support working families across this country. That's the reality.

All of this just to pay for tax cuts for the wealthy.

While Trump appoints 13 billionaires to his cabinet and Musk, Bezos and Zuckerberg see their wealth increase by $217 billion since the election, 60% of Americans live paycheck to paycheck, 25% of seniors live on $15g or less and millions cannot afford rent.

SAY NO TO OLIGARCHY.
