40 Trillion...which had been predicted to be reached in fiscal year 2028. So much for the GOP being fiscally responsible. π This is what happens when they take control of the government; a Democratic President has to come in and clean up the economy they destroyed.
I think the one thing he learned from covid was to not say anything publicly. During covid, he repeatedly stated on social media and at press briefings that testing "makes us look bad" and argued that "With smaller testing we would show fewer cases!". If you can, buy local.
Individual rogue officers were found running searches hundreds of times; a Florida officer queried an estranged wife's vehicle over 700 times, a Milwaukee officer logged more than 120 unauthorized plate lookups on a partner. A report by The Washington Post this month identified 46 specific cases.
If being anti-genocide makes us anti-Israel, then they need some self-reflection on why. Mamdani explicitly condemned the October 7th Hamas attacks as horrific war crimes. He also maintains that he opposes the policies of the Israeli government and military rather than the Jewish people.
Uncomfortable fact: The Epstein list is real. But turning βbillionaires trafficking childrenβ into the main story is a comforting distraction. Billionaires abuse you, and every one of us, every day through our data and privacy to get richer. And we accept it.

Maybe not a good look for the most powerful man in the world (like it or not, he is) to emotionally manipulate a 36-year-old victim of her father's suicide into giving him emotional handjobs in front of the entire world. Also...maybe she should rethink her life choices.

The level of condemnation the βfree worldβ directs at a dictatorship depends on its economic openness to our interests. Let our companies capture your market, and criticism will be soft. Close the door and deal with our rivals, we will impose sanctions. This has nothing to do with democracy.
The draft dodger who *called our soldiers suckers & losers *didnβt attend a memorial for our soldiers in France-re the rain *not attend the Vets Day service at Arlington 2018 *took the POW flag off of the WH *let our sailors-esp on the Abe Lincoln suffer WANTS A SHIP NAMED AFTER HIMSELFοΏΌ
Weβre so eager to find new angles to attack Trump that, when one appears, we jump on it like hyenas. This young woman may be deeply questionable. But does she deserve this level of hate? We should never become like the people we claim to oppose.
Evergrande rose on massive debt and risk. When it collapsed, Chinese citizens paid the price. Its founder has now been sentenced to life in prison. After the 2008 crisis, senior bankers who took the same reckless risks got bailed out, and almost everyone avoided prison. www.bbc.com/news/article...
In France, Macron spent β¬103,000 on a giant 400 mΒ² βMake it iconicβ National Day billboard. It appeared on TV for 11 seconds. His office sent the bill to other ministries, which first refused to pay until they were pressured. Autocrats use the same kind of billboard.
Israelβs Ben-Gvir posts video of gallows site for hanging Palestinians Far-right minister says those convicted in military courts of terror offences will be executed after passing of death penalty law that does not apply to Jewish extremists www.theguardian.com/world/2026/a...
Tonight Iβm studying people that crossed the Steppes, flat grass land from China in the east to Crimea & the Danube west. Divided by Altai mountains with river routes south. For thousands of years, people with horses could travel great distances, including the various people that became the Taters.
The Rs were right to fear socialism. Cue Mamdani. Hereβs one now demonstrating that government can and should work to help its citizens. Potholes filled, free child care, low-cost housing, joyfully provided. All courtesy of a tiny tax on the uber-rich. Time to think big.
35-year-old Natalie Harp is a senior advisor to POTUS. She is a key gatekeeper & personally close to Trump. We have seen extraordinary, fawning notes she wrote to Trump. Sheβs with him consrantly. Hell yes, she needs to be investigated. What is going on in there?
Shut up asshole. Biden wasnβt building ballrooms and helipads and spending money on auto races that are costing millions to produce. Plus, all of his other pet projects β like free airplanes that were $400 million to retrofit, and funding an unapproved wars, etc, etc

THIS IS MAGA! David Elliott Pritt, Former House Delegate rose to Asst Majority Leader in West VAβs Repub caucus, was just indicted by a federal grand jury on 3 felony counts s*xual exploitation of a child, coercion and enticement of a child, and witness tampering. www.wowktv.com/news/west-vi...
"To sleep, perchance to dream." Herk is doing okay with our temporary sleeping arrangements and being back at the former residence for a visit, was even playing a little this morning. I have to make sure I share my time and attention with both him and the dogs... 1/2
THIS IS MAGA! Steven Lee Pate, Blountsville, AL Pate faces first-degree r*pe and s*xual abuse of a child under 12 charges. Prosecutors allege he r*ped a 5-year-old girl in October 2017 and subjected another girl under 12 into s*xual contact in October 2022. abc3340.com/news/local/b...
Home growing, depending on costs of dispensary cannabis in your state, can sometimes help you save money. Growing it gave me an entire new appreciation of what it means to nurture a living thing into the best it can be. It made me proud every time I smoked some & it blew me away. #growyourown ππ₯¦π±
This is backwards. The oil and fuel shocks from simultaneous interruptions in Russia and Hormuz are driving rates and treasuries causing the AI folks to pay higher rates and causing inflation throughout the productions chains because of higher fuel costs.
Fair or not, I judged all of them. I found the described image of Harp running along the side of his golf cart as he rode-slightly odd. Her private note that he was βeverythingβ to her was nauseating. Her private note to George Bush was discussed ( he never responded). ? #tartheart
Chaos Doctrine Trump isnβt openly trying to ignite a world war, but his volatility, impulsive threats, and disregard for diplomatic structure create a geopolitical minefield World wars rarely start with intent βthey start with ego, misreads, and chain reactions His behavior accelerates all three

Hey #TEXAS WHY are we providing tax incentives to attract/build data centers when we have half a TERAwatt of backlogged electrical grid attachment requests? Every request should bring its own solar/wind/battery plan to support reducing local consumer power costs and should reuse cooling water.
