Hassett's nomination is highly likely, since he is one of Trump's most loyal sycophants, and Trump wants to control the Fed, as he is trying to do with all other branches of government.

Meet your President, who is cutting healthcare, food assistance, and child Head Start program benefits for those who need them most, and disrespecting our national treasures like the White House to build flashy monuments that inflate his narcissistic ego!

The irrationally exuberant stock market reacts to his economic promises as if they were gospel. Stay tuned; the dismal reality of "Trumpenomics" is starting now and will get worse by the end of the year! 😕

Welker asked superficial questions, provided weak follow-ups, and did not understand the issues.
Her recession and tariffs follow-ups lacked detailed references. All she did was give Trump another forum for promoting his lies and conspiracies.
Where’s Russet when we need him!

They need to be reminding the President of El Salvador that if they regain power in 2026, they will have influence over Salvadorian foreign aid.
DEMOCRATS: Get your heads out of a dark place, and use your power to help get Abrego Garcia released! 🙄

Does Trump think we’re stupid? He cut a deal with the President of El Salvador to block the return of those he deported without due process, defying the Supreme Court’s order.
We're paying El Salvador $6 million to run his offshore gulag so he can get them back if he wants!

Martin Niemöller was a German theologian who opposed the Nazi regime. He's famous for his 1946 poem that warns of the dangers of inaction in the face of injustice. I’ve adapted his poem for modern times.
MORAL: Failure to defend everyone’s rights makes you a part of the problem!

As expected, markets reacted with irrational exuberance. Like basketball, it's only the 1st quarter. Don't let his milestone become your tombstone.
Keep an eye on the 10-year rate! 😉

Trump told us his tariffs would raise $6 trillion in U.S. Treasury revenues over the next 10 years, helping us reduce our federal debt and income taxes. Woohoo! 🤗
Instead, his plan wiped out $6 trillion in our investment and retirement accounts in two days! Oops! 😕

Global trade saw a dramatic decline in 1930 and 1931, plummeting by 66% between 1929 and 1934, largely due to the Smoot-Hawley Tariff Act of 1930, which triggered a global trade war and worsened the Great Depression.

So far, the only things that Trump has liberated me from are my retirement fund profits and several social services. 🙄
Let's see if he can do better tomorrow! 😉

We import about $131 billion more goods & services than we export. Who's to blame?
FACT: We clamored for low prices for decades, leading companies to outsource manufacturing to low-cost locations.
QUESTION: Are we now prepared to pay higher prices for “American Made”?

RFK Jr. is a long-time anti-vaxxer and healthcare conspiracy theorist with no medical training. Some are following his ill-advised home remedy for measles and exposing their children to severe liver damage. 😡
This is only the beginning of the damage he can do. ☹️

DOGE is summarily firing employees by email for performance reasons, which means they are not eligible for unemployment insurance. 😡
This suggests those with security clearances or special skills are not getting debriefed or required to sign confidentiality agreements! 😳

I support improving efficiency; however, I oppose their reckless disregard for the consequences of their actions. Our "shining city upon a hill" is dimming!

In 1939, Hitler and Stalin signed a non-aggression pact that included the division of Poland. In 1941, Hitler broke the pact and invaded the USSR.
Putin, much like Hitler, requires time to rebuild his military. Trump is historically clueless!
