Your Friday reminder that trickle-down economics is a cruel hoax.

Cruel because it's used by the super-rich to avoid paying their fair share of taxes.

And a hoax because nothing has ever trickled down.

Once again, Republicans do not understand what Obamacare does because if they did, they'd know that THIS IS WHAT OBAMACARE DOES. I'm going to lose my mind.

I know we’ve been talking about the 25th Amendment being invoked for years now, but we should probably be talking about it a lot more and a lot more seriously right now.
Couple of things here:

1. Trump says he took another cognitive test recently

2. In front of "large numbers of doctors and experts"

3. He called the examinations "long...and very boring"

4. If you're given 3 cognitive exams in one year by panels of doctors, something is VERY wrong with you

This new Politico poll should stop us all in our tracks!

50% of Americans are struggling to afford groceries, let’s start there. Then add the fact that we have a president who thinks we’re lying about it.

I’m just waiting for the next poll that asks, “Does the president care about people like me?”

With more instances of Donald Trump appearing fatigued or forgetful, Americans are again seeing evidence of a president who lacks the energy to do his demanding job, @dgraham.bsky.social argues.
The Enfeebling of the President
Trump is showing signs that he’s lost the physical stamina to do the job.

If the Sep. 2 boat really had "narco-terrorists" on board, questioning the survivors would have been a way to learn about how the organization worked, where more drugs were stashed, etc. But this isn't a counter-terrorism campaign. It's a shooting gallery with helpless targets.

This is ridiculous. It was the first TRUMP admin which developed the cases against President Hernandez. His brother Tony Hernandez was indicted in 2018 and convicted in 2019, and key ally Geovanny Fuentes Ramirez was indicted in 2020.

Both were later sentenced to life in prison!
Leavitt: "The people of Honduras have highlighted to him how the former President Hernandez was set up. This was a clear Biden over prosecution."

Someone needs to say it. Trump 2028 isn’t happening.

We know the presidency ages you, and we’re witnessing his rapid decline. His approval is buried in the 30s, and his stamina is gone. He won’t be able to vigorously campaign.

He can pretend 2028 is inevitable, but everyone can see the truth.

In any other presidency, from Truman to Biden, the family monetization of the office & the use of immediate family members as a substitute for senior diplomats would have immediately ended it all. But here we are, with this One Special Boy, & we just stopped being a serious country. It’s maddening.
