Never trust a guy who’s office looks like this.

Don Jr. is running a private club in Georgetown where for a mere $500,000 membership fee, you can freely corrupt members of the Executive Branch.

Somehow this is normal in the Trump era.

The GOP seems to believe corruption and grifting are fine as long as they are shameless about it.

The White House is conducting reviews of Smithsonian Exhibits to be sure they conform to Trump’s view of history.

George Orwell called it. Step by step.

This fits my approach on many things, especially business ideas.

I think the best theory of change is to start making changes.

The actual tariffs charged by other countries and the sometimes 10x higher tariffs that Trump has called “reciprocal”.

The US is so erratic and untrustworthy that other countries will do all they can to avoid trade relationships for years to come.

For some reason, Trump going to play golf with the Saudis and make more golf tournament deals last night didn’t increase confidence in his actions or leadership.

In our former country, it would have been scandalous for a president to be meeting with business partners while “serving” as president.

This is what it looks like when a competent and serious administration makes the difficult decision to put American lives at risk. #hegseth #trump #rubio

This book helped me see through the eyes of a Peruvian economist what is hard to see in the US economy.

The “secret” to the success of the US economy isn’t some “pioneering spirit” that doesn’t exist elsewhere.

It is enforcement of the rule of law even against the wealthy and powerful. #econsky

Congratulations to Donald Trump for winning his 24th Golf Club Championship at Trump International Golf Club in a row.

An amazing feat. No one has ever see anything like it before. So sad to see this amazing streak is coming to an end.

If you are wondering why Trump would be trying to destroy the CIA, we would need to ask whoever bought a bunch of $Trump coin right before his inauguration.

This alone is impeachable, and should be considered treason. Only our enemies would wish for this.

Let’s not ignore the impacts of the supply of labor.

The boom and bust in this market made it a very undesirable career. The labor force finally recovered in 2023 right when building had already peaked.

Provide maximizing market force deserve some of the blame.

Trump promised massive growth in domestic manufacturing, and it never happened.

Biden fostered almost 200% growth in manufacturing investment.

Democrats make long term investments in economic growth.

Republicans sell short term scams.

In 2022, California was a net contributor to the Federal government of over $83,000,000,000.

Alabama was a net taker/moocher from the Federal government of $47,000,000,000.

The makers should stop subsidizing the takers.

I will never understand how so many people can believe this guy is serious about doing anything but filling his own pockets and feeding his own ego.
