Mark Kelly: "This is not surprising. Here's a guy who told Americans to inject bleach into their bodies, who sent a mob to Capitol Hill. And now I think it's fair to say he stands out as singlehandedly destroying more wealth with his bad decisions than anybody else who has ever lived on this planet"

Trump’s tariffs are what you get when you put an erratic strongman in charge of the economy

Someone like Trump doesn’t just own the libs, moderates and conservatives take the hit too

8) And this one is important.

For all the talk about the powerful pro-Trump media ecosystem, the share of Americans who have heard negative business news coverage of the government has exploded.

Evidently even the podcast bros can’t distract Americans from the realities of the stock market.

Ich glaub das ist schon wichtig zu verstehen: „Faschismus“ als (logischerweise unperfektes) Framework zu benutzen ist nicht dasselbe wie zu sagen „Amerika ist bald genauso wie Italien unter Mussolini“. www.zeit.de/kultur/2025-...

And we will build the prosperous, free nation for all that we deserve.

Top White House officials used disappearing messages on Signal for top-secret national security discussions—violating federal law & risking our security. Even worse? A participant was in Moscow.

Congress must investigate. This betrayal cannot stand .

U.S. national-security leaders included me in a group chat about upcoming military strikes in Yemen. I didn’t think it could be real. Then the bombs started falling.

Remember: Almost all of us are the descendants of immigrants who fled persecution, or were brought to America under duress, or sought better lives for themselves and their descendants.

Politicians who stoke fear and hatred over immigration want you to forget this.

Do not.

The genesis of the notion that Canada should just be more of America may very well have been Vladimir Putin's 2021 article outlining his case for annexing Ukraine.

Das ist leider völlig falsch. Denn jede Aktion erfordert eine Reaktion. Ein Übermass an gut gemeinten Angriffen (heute als "Woke" bezeichnet) gegen vermeintliche Mehrheiten (alte weisse Männer, Westler, Israel usw.) führt bei vielen Menschen, die noch nicht polarisiert sind, zu Abwehrreaktionen.
Hochintellektuelle Analysen, dass der autoritär-faschistische Backlash in Wahrheit die Schuld einer allzu minderheitenfreundlichen, woken Linken sei, sind ähnlich eklig wie gewalttätige Ehemänner, die sagen: "Schau wozu du mich zwingst! Hättest du ordentlich gekocht, müsste ich dich nicht schlagen!"
