People are so stupid.


listening to the Walmart cashier this morning talking to her customer. They were complaining that there benefits were paused and fuck Biden. Apparently....the new line of thought is that the federal fundinf freeze was Biden and he had set it up before leaving office that these benefits would expire but "Thank God Trump reversed the expiring order and restored the federal funding"


i just.....don't even know man.

Wait until he cuts their benefits again in a less obvious way. Eventually the abusive dad in the big chair will start to take some of the blame. The grace period will end this year.

But in the meantime, let's talk about my tax cuts shall we? Solstice doesn't pay for itself.

Oh good, attacking our closest trading partners and allies, what could possibly go wrong?

Trump reportedly says he will follow through with 25% tariffs on Canada & Mexico on Saturday

It's a matter of weeks - days? hours? - until Trump tries to somehow apply tariffs only to purchases made by residents of blue states.

Yup.

Just like the immigration arrests and the fallout from them will be intended to cause as much negative economic impact as possible in blue cities and states.
