What we have is a President deliberately tanking the economy. And either directly or indirectly we are all going to pay a price for it. SE Cupp.. “Imagine the arrogance of thinking: screw ALL the economists, screw everything we know from history, screw our allies, screw American workers and farmers, screw my own voters who just wanted costs to go down…I’m going to take down the GLOBAL economy. Because I can. That’s a special kind of narcissist.” x.com/secupp/status/1908160985870782806?s=61&t=j45uMgNk1i8O0YllKF58nw

Happy Friday! ”🚨 STOCKS CRASH AT OPEN DOW JONES DOWN ALMOST ANOTHER 1200 POINTS, NOW BELOW 40,000. S&P 500 DOWN NEARLY 180. NASDAQ DOWN NEARLY 630.” & ”BREAKING: China just announced a 34% tariff on U.S. goods. To the MAGA farmers growing soybeans, corn, wheat… and those producing beef, pork, and dairy: I warned you. To the MAGA voters working in or invested in semiconductors, autos, aircraft, oil, or natural gas: I warned you too. Trump doesn’t care about your bottom line. He’s playing politics—you’re paying the price.” x.com/krassenstein/status/1908109738857877572?s=61&t=j45uMgNk1i8O0YllKF58nwx.com/meidastouch/status/1908154271105003829?s=61&t=j45uMgNk1i8O0YllKF58nwA question Bout the farmers and their crops. Not that everyone can use the soy beans, but FF will reimburse some of the farmers to plow their crops under. FF has shut down some food aid to schools while crops may be plowed under. Makes no sense to me! Or am I not understanding??

The trump administration gang really needs to get their stories straight Scott Turner… ”5 million manufacturing jobs were lost over the past 27 years — one of the largest manufacturing job losses in U.S. history. 40% of Opportunity Zones used to house titans of manufacturing. @potus’ tariffs will bring jobs back. America’s Future will be American Made.” And this from another trump person.. Acyn… ”Watters: What kind of manufacturing are you talking about returning here? Lutnick: What's going to happen is robotics are going to replace the cheap labor…” it’s not just cheap labor being replaced by robotics.. x.com/acyn/status/1907950472834818482?s=61&t=j45uMgNk1i8O0YllKF58nwx.com/secretaryturner/status/1907872057871695960?s=61&t=j45uMgNk1i8O0YllKF58nw

Let’s be honest here, if President Biden did what trump did and then took off to his beach house the Republicans would be calling for him to be impeached. Instead they are just standing around looking like the assholes that they are. Rep Jim McGovern.. ”He’s golfing with the Saudis in Florida while your retirement savings evaporates by the second. Never before have we seen an American President ruin the economy on purpose.” x.com/repmcgovern/status/1908235404635234359?s=61&t=j45uMgNk1i8O0YllKF58nw

When trump took office the Dow was at 43,000+. It is now sitting at 38,000+ The Dow has lost 5,000+ points in the little over 2 months the idiot has been in office. A reminder. Elections have consequences and if Kamala Harris was president this would not be happening. This was a deliberate act by trump. Shame on the 77+M voters who voted for trump, and the 1.5 M who voted 3rd party and the 85.2 M who didn’t vote. x.com/acyn/status/1908228574278279362?s=61&t=j45uMgNk1i8O0YllKF58nw

People got all hysterical because Harris didn’t stand at the banks of the Rio Grande looking south across the border. But as President she would have been at the airport which means a hell of a lot more then standing at the southern border for a photo-op. FactPost… ”Trump has skipped the dignified transfer of 4 American soldiers who died in Lithuania. Instead, he chose to go to a LIV Golf event with ties to the Saudi government.” x.com/factpostnews/status/1908150443999371336?s=61&t=j45uMgNk1i8O0YllKF58nw

He’s right! Acyn… “Obama: Imagine if I had done any of this. Imagine if I had pulled Fox News’ credentials from the White House press corps. Imagine if I had said to law firms that were representing parties that were upset with policies my administration had initiated, that you will not be allowed into government buildings. We will punish you economically for dissenting from the Affordable Care Act or the Iran deal. We will ferret out students who protest against my policies. It’s unimaginable that the same parties that are silent now would have tolerated behavior like that from me, or a whole bunch of my predecessors.” x.com/acyn/status/1908299449505575105?s=61&t=j45uMgNk1i8O0YllKF58nw

Judge rules that FF and Noem have been withholding FEMA funds from Blue states, requiring them to additional regulations to receive funding.. In March, U.S. District Judge John McConnell issued a preliminary injunction in favor of 23 states that sued the government over its plan to implement a broad pause to state aid," noted the report. *** However, per the report, 19 states, all with Democratic attorneys general, provided "undisputed evidence" that the Trump administration has since then continued to withhold FEMA aid. "Oregon claimed that more than $120 million in disaster relief assistance for winter storms, flooding, landslides, wildfires and flood mitigation remains frozen by FEMA. Hawaii said that the agency still hasn’t answered a roughly $6 million request for aid to rebuild after the 2023 wildfires in Maui," noted the report. *** In a statement to the outlet's Erik Uebelacker, a Homeland Security official did not deny that money was withheld from blue states, and attacked the ruling. "This is yet another example of an activist judge trying to obstruct President Trump's agenda. At the direction of Secretary Noem, FEMA has implemented additional controls to ensure that all grant program activity is consistent with law and does not promote fraud, waste or abuse, as it has in the past. We will continue to ensure that U.S. taxpayer dollars are being used wisely and for mission critical efforts. GOP officials have routinely played with the idea in recent months of putting extra conditions on blue states for obtaining disaster relief, with House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) suggesting added demands on California after the devastating wildfires in the Los Angeles area; meanwhile, Trump has reportedly considered unilaterally trying to shut down FEMA altogether, although this would potentially prevent much more funding to red states than blue states. www.rawstory.com/judge-fema-aid/

Here are a few details on the tax cuts that Republicans-including Trump- want:
Senate Republicans on Wednesday decided their party alone would control how math works. This is a pressing legislative question at present, because pretzeling budgetary outcomes into prettier shapes and sizes will determine whether Republicans can pass President Donald Trump’s promised tax cuts. Those cuts are very expensive. Not only do they include extensions of the 2017 tax law provisions (set to expire this year), but they also lower corporate rates as well as carveouts for tips, auto loan payments and other goodies. In total, Trump’s preferred tax agenda could cost between $5 trillion and $11 trillion over the next decade.
This is inconvenient. Republicans like to pretend they’re fiscal conservatives (at least some of the time). They would prefer not to acknowledge the hefty price tag, and they also don’t want to fully offset it with unpopular spending cuts.
So, they’ve devised a cheat. Rather than admitting how much their tax agenda would cost, they are simply asserting that they get their first $4 trillion — free! Here’s how: Republicans say that because some (expiring) tax cuts have been in place since 2017, extending them shouldn’t be recorded as costing anything, because they wouldn’t feel different. This is … not how budgets work. As I’ve explained before, it’s like saying even though your car lease has ended, leasing another car should count as “free” because you got used to the convenience of having a vehicle around.

This is funny,.. Elon Musk’s Tesla woes are continuing to pile up. *** Now, some Cybertruck owners are reporting that Tesla will not accept its own vehicle as a trade-in, according to electric vehicle website Electrek. *** From Electrek’s report: With Tesla having issues selling new Cybertrucks, the automaker is reportedly not taking any as trade-ins. Many Cybertruck owners reported trying to trade-in the truck for a new vehicle and they were told that the automaker currently doesn’t accept its own vehicle as a trade-in.
Some owners who have had their trucks in service for extended periods of time are also trying to get Tesla to take the truck back, but the company is forcing them to go through the Lemon Law process....and more..... www.nj.com/politics/2025/04/elon-musk-to-tesla-cybertruck-buyers-no-take-backs-its-a-lemon.html

Fake news but that’s never stopped you from posting without verification. Trump Media and Technology Group filed a registration with the SEC on Tuesday that would open the door for the president's trust to sell up to nearly 115 million shares, which are worth more than $2.3 billion. The filing does not guarantee the sale of the shares nor provide any information about a future sale. Legacy media outlets are spreading a fake story suggesting that a TMTG filing today is paving the way for the Trump trust to sell its shares in TMTG. To be clear, these shares were already registered last June on an S-1 form, and today TMTG submitted a routine filing that re-registers them on an S-3 form in order to keep the Company's filings effective. In fact, there currently is no open window for any affiliate to sell shares," the statement said.

This brings into question if it was indeed true or not. 2. Considering this involves trump I really do believe he would absolutely do something like this based on his past actions. It’s clear you refuse to see trump for who he is.

Once again, Tuberville shows us what stupid is!! Sen. Tommy Tuberville (R-AL) warned that "entire men's teams across the country" were "turning trans" after Senate Democrats blocked a bill that would have banned transgender athletes in women's sports.Tuberville reacted to his bill being shot down during a Sunday interview on Fox News. "Well, it's the priority of the Democrats, the letter salad of LGBTQ groups, you can't let one of them down," the senator said. "And the Democrats know that transgender boys and women's sports is wrong, but they can't abandon them because the rest of their group would probably say, if you're not going to stand with us, we're out of here for you Democrats." We have entire men's teams across this country now that are turning trans," he added. "Women's teams, they're turning trans." www.rawstory.com/tommy-tuberville-teams-turning-transgender/Random comment: **. Just another closet gay guy in the Senate. And stupid, too. Men's teams being filled with trans would have less testosterone, and lose more games. The worry is that girl's teams filled with trans have an unfair testosterone advantage. You cannot fix STUPID!

They are so immature. Another embarrassing tweet from the Whitehouse. Imagine that these guys are supported by the same people who talked about Michelle Obama wearing a sleeveless dress and Barack wearing a suit. The level of crassness and disrespect from this administration is unreal.

Thousands of federal workers fired, USAID cancelled, children going hungry, FEMA and other agencies decimated, FF has cost millions to fly to MAL for golf almost every weekend.... And now his great dream may come true...... Four miles, $100 million estimate SEVEN years ago. How much more today..?? President Donald Trump could finally be getting something he's longed for since first getting elected to the White House. Trump pushed for a grandiose military parade through the streets of D.C. during his first term but was forced to back down over the costs, but a D.C. source with knowledge of the plan said commandeered June 14, the 250th anniversary of the U.S. Army and his own 79th birthday for a four-mile parade, reported the Washington City Paper. The plans are still being developed, and local officials are just now catching wind of it, but the source said the parade would depart from the Pentagon in Arlington, Virginia, and proceed four miles to the White House in Washington. D.C. mayor Muriel Bowser's office did not respond to a request for comment, but she publicly opposed Trump's wishes for a parade seven years ago, when military leaders told him the show of force would cost nearly $100 million and local officials complained that heavy military equipment like tanks would damage pavement and cost them more than $20 million to provide security.www.rawstory.com/donald-trump-military-parade/

"Equating hostages held by Hamas to victims in Nazi Germany isn’t just offensive, it’s also a grotesque distortion of history," wrote Wall Street investment banker Evaristus Odinikaeze. "He’s always saying the first thing that pops into his head without understanding the weight of those words. And he’s sitting next to Israeli Prime Minister. Crazy stuff!"
