It's a sign of fragility, showing your hand so early in a narrative. If you've been complaining about how "woke" Gunn's new Superman movie is before you've even seen it, you're just doing what you're told like a good little follower

There is silver lining to bombing Iran. More Americans will be able to point it on a map, we generally only learn about foreign countries when we bomb them... here is Geography 201 - how big is Iran.

Iran covers one-sixth of the land area of the United States, nearly as large as the Alaska.

Me, after explaining the $5 coffee a lawyer I’ve known for years and went to law school got me was a gift from someone I had a pre-existing non-business relationship with and not a conflict of interest to the government’s auditors:

Trump officials tried to reopen negotiations in recent days, but Harvard refused. Instead, the university has accused the administration of breaking the law.

Harvard’s lawyers suggest the administration was sloppy when it froze billions in federal funding. A mundane but crucial law is essential to the university’s case against the government.

I'm not saying Trump's tariffs are stupid, that goes without saying. I'm saying it's FUCKING HILARIOUS that a man elected on the "strong on the economy" platform has his stooges ask ChatGPT to throw together ill-advised tariff plans at the last second, after Trump talked about it for a year

Remember when everyone complained that the black lady didn't have a detailed economic plan and instead chose Trump because he was "strong on the economy"? 🤣

They're "only taking convicted criminals" and "will charge a fee for that." So the U.S. is outsourcing private prisons to places where inmates are not protected by the Constitution, gotcha.

Remember when Trump rage-Tweeted that any President that let the Dow drop 1,000+ points in a day should be immediately impeached?

Peppridge Farm remembers
The stock market is not the economy. The stock market is not the economy. The stock market is not the economy.

Nonetheless, holy shit.

What’s remarkable is that there’s hardly any real news driving this. It’s just investors belatedly realizing that Trump is who he is, and always was.
