Sure it’s nice he says this but tomorrow he could absolutely spend three hours asking softball questions to someone who says Ben Franklin was a communist and that due process just mans executive sign off
Joe Rogan explains to his audience why due process is important and quotes Ben Franklin — "it is better 100 guilty persons should escape than that one innocent person should suffer.”
He argues against shipping people to a prison in El Salvador without trial because we think they’re gang members.

It seems that Trump wants a recession. Why?
A recession will drive down the prices of real estate, companies, and shares of stock.
Trump and his fellow billionaires want to buy up everything on the cheap and then enjoy the ride upward — no matter the cost to working people.

Trump is basically pressing all the “do not touch” buttons simultaneously: mass layoffs, increasing prices, undermining consumer and international confidence. Not sure what else he could be doing to trigger a recession, let alone longer term US decline
March saw the third-highest number of layoffs in U.S. history, and 80% of them were caused by DOGE
This was before the tariffs
It's just...unbelievable

I’ll take safety over any supposed streamlining please. Wtf is wrong with these morons.
Trump's USDA will roll back safety regulations to “streamline” meat processing.
This will boost corporate profits at the expense of worker health and food safety.

We need more regulation, not less. Hello?
