If you’re over 40 go out back and try to skip….that shit is like trying to ice skate for the 1st time. There is no muscle memory for this elementary school PE nonsense.

If Trump would stop doing things that are inflationary like…
1. Removing manpower from our domestically produced products.
2. Adding a tax to our imported products.
3. Encouraging wars in a region the world gets energy from.
….I would think Powell would have more reason to lower rates.

The Fed will hold interest rates steady, ignoring repeated calls from Trump to dramatically lower borrowing costs.
Fed’s Powell keeps rates where they are, defying Trump
The Fed’s decision to stand pat, though widely expected, will likely draw a rebuke from the president.

So we saw pictures and videos of the tanks and artillery being moved into DC by train. Has anyone seen any evidence that they have started leaving yet?

Unfortunately this is looking more like 65/35 atm and the situation is deteriorating.
Am I the only one that’s worried that after the parade he might just keep the tanks and artillery in place to completely militarize D.C.? I say at least a 50/50 chance.
In preparation for next week’s parade/demonstration, tanks are being moved into Washington, DC today. Unprecedented.

Holy f*ck balls! The other site is an absolute meltdown over the Elon vs. Trump war and for the most part Elon seems to be winning. I’ve got no horse in that race but neither is coming out unscathed.

Wow. Avelo airlines has covered up their logo to hide the fact that they're helping with mass deportation. Avelo's customer service number is (346) 616-9500. Feel free to give them a call and tell them how you feel about them.
😲 Guys, Avelo painted their ICE jets all white! The tail number matches. How pathetic is that? 👀

The sad truth is Connolly should have been home with his family years ago instead of dying in office. Another life long Dem politician who stayed in the game way too long has now opened the door to a Republican governor filling his seat and giving Republicans a better chance at passing legislation.

The press should start asking every senate and house member over the age of 70 if it’s their plan to die in office.

Putting aside all the other questions I have about this like why South Sudan!? How much does it cost to fly 2 guys all the way to East Africa on a military transport?
NEW filing: The Trump administration is trying to deport two people to South Sudan, attorneys in a Massachusetts case against DHS say. They're asking the judge for an emergency order blocking the removals

23andMe (and the genomic data for 15 million people) was sold for the bargain-basement price $256 million
23andMe sells its most valuable asset to biotech company Regeneron, which promises to keep your DNA private

It’s crazy how in 10 years all these guys have gone from screaming about free market capitalism to worming their way into every facet of American commerce with regulations and tariffs and even restrictions on groups they can and can’t market to. It really is a drastic change.
U.S. Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, suggested Tuesday that Congress could help American sports fans weary of trying to catch their favorite teams on an increasingly complex array of apps, broadcast platforms and streaming services.

The dollar store in BFE Alabama is gonna be empty soon….
With all the talk of product shortages , I think it should be said that products will first find their way to densely populated areas first and everywhere else, last
This certainly will hurt all those red counties. How they react to their shelves being everything will define the midterms
