I see that CBS chose not to air this part. It probably explains much of what they did decide to air.

MAGA: If you want to know what the rest of the world thinks of Donald Trump, here you go.

They think he's an idiot and a buffoon.

Because that's what he is.

Thank you for your attention to this matter.

OK, here is your one-minute primer on the whole concept of "trickle down economics," from the obituary of Fred Smith, the founder of Fedex.

I mean, if you still can't see it, I have no hope for you.

ICYMI — ICE DIRECTOR: “These are real people with real families you’re hurting.”

He says this not about immigrants… but about ICE agents. A record-setting lack of self-awareness.

Most political commentators are too polite to say this, but Trump won because of his appeal to the most important voting bloc: morons. If the Democrats want to win again the answer isn’t becoming more left or more right, it’s coming up with dumb policies that morons like

We’re at a point where what the president is doing is so corrupt that acting ignorant at the expense of looking incompetent at your job is the best course of action for his staff.
MURPHY: The president has offered access to him at a dinner Thursday to the 200 top purchasers of his memecoin. Half or more of those who will be meeting w/ him are foreigners. Do you have a list?

RUBIO: I didn't even know there was a dinner Thursday night, so I don't know what you're referring to.

It's 2015. President Barack Obama has accepted a "sky palace" jumbo jet from the Qatari government, which he'll own after he leaves office. "Everybody relax," he says in an interview with the New York Times. Everyone does. The networks then televise the military parade in his honor on his birthday.

If China defeated the US in war and forced us to sign a treaty that would ensure a century of Chinese dominion in science and tech, they'd be smart to force the U.S. to:

- slash scientific grants in half
- reduce foreign students
- gut our manufacturing base

Instead, we're doing it all by choice.

I'm telling you, of all the ways to articulate the US's many problems, I still believe we primarily have a dummy problem. The electorate is overwhelmingly stupid. It affects almost every aspect of political outcome.
Do these people believe our climate can grow all of our own coffee & bananas? Fruit in winter? Do they think diamonds & rare earth minerals are mined in Iowa?

And are they volunteering to work in a garment factory? Insert the screws in an iPad? Then pay 3x those current prices?

Trump's moves are already imposing immense costs on the United States and on the world via lost scientific progress on preventing Alzheimer's, curing cancer, etc.
aside: a stunning comment from David Baker, UW professor who won the Nobel Prize in 2024. Now 15 lab members are looking for positions overseas.

“There’s so many amazing people who want to come in, & we can’t take them. The Nobel Prize was just a little blip. But things have gotten quite bleak.”
