It’s all just so gross and absurd. Words that also happen to describe the VP.
A screenshot of a tweet by Paul Blest responding to another tweet by The Bulwark. Paul Blest’s tweet reads: “My precious little 31 year old boys were just joshing around when they said ‘I love Hitler.’ My baby children. They're so little.” Below, The Bulwark’s tweet quotes JD Vance discussing backlash over an “I love Hitler” group chat, saying people should “Grow up!” and not focus on what “kids say in group chats,” claiming “kids do stupid things” and make “edgy, offensive jokes.” The image below shows JD Vance speaking at a podium with microphones, standing in front of U.S. flags and a “Real America’s Voice” logo, with a caption bar identifying him as “JD Vance, Vice President of the United States.”

EL PASO — a family says ICE showed up at their house looking for migrants and shot and KILLED THEIR DOG, then didn’t help them as the agent ran away and was not identified.

Ridiculous. He tried to steal his election to remain in power just like Trump, so of course Lil Marco stands up for the coup leader. But the fact that this is the official position of the United States is disgusting.

OMG. I was wondering that as the tariff numbers made no sense, but this is even dumber than I thought. I mean, this is "fail your econ 101 class and have to go meet with the professor" bad.
hmmvryintrstng.bsky.social hi, no thanks @hmmvryintrstng.bsky.social · Apr 2
james surowiecki has discovered where the completely fabricated trump tariff rate has come from for each country

"...for every country, they just took our trade deficit with that country and divided it by the country's exports to us."
Just figured out where these fake tariff rates come from. They didn't actually calculate tariff rates + non-tariff barriers, as they say they did. Instead, for every country, they just took our trade deficit with that country and divided it by the country's exports to us. So we have a $17.9 billion trade deficit with Indonesia. Its exports to us are $28 billion. $17.9/$28 = 64%, which Trump claims is the tariff rate Indonesia charges us. What extraordinary nonsense this is.

Please read this article on DOGE savings so far

www.yahoo.com/news/elon-mu...
Elon Musk and DOGE promised up to $2 trillion in government savings. How much have they actually saved so far?
DOGE claims $55 billion in savings over the first month — but its own ‘wall of receipts’ shows just $7.2 billion.

I would add this is the moronic bastard that is about to be handed a government contract to run air traffic control.
