Idiotic: Bessent gives $$ to Japan because US war with Iran drives Japan's currency down, threatning to raise US interest rates and slowing US economy. HEADLINE: Trump policies undermine world economy SO Trump policy is to bail out world economy with US taxpayer dollars.

In saving the Yen, the US was trying to save itself. "The yen’s slide to a 40-year low indirectly threatened to bump up U.S. interest rates and risked throwing a wrench in plans to pull billions of dollars of Japanese investment into the U.S." www.wsj.com/finance/curr...

FLAG: Trump gets to keep tax immunity for himself, his sons, and the Trump Organization under the new 'deal' struck by Todd Blanche. The new order also reaffirms that Trump won't have to pay any taxes he might have owed the IRS.

This is such complete and utter bullshit on the part of Thom Tillis and John Cornyn. Giving the Trump crime family immunity from tax audits remains as corrupt as anything we’ve ever seen in this country. Todd Blanche should be impeached, not confirmed.

Trump & his sons are exempt from IRS scrutiny while the rest of us are pay out the nose for gas, groceries, housing, health care BECAUSE BILLIONAIRES LIKE TRUMP WON'T PAY THEIR FUCKING TAXES.

Starting 1/1/27: CUTS to Medicaid will total roughly $1T & SNAP CUTS will be $400B. These are NOT just CUTS, they are death sentences. For the first time ever, states via block grants MUST decide who lives & who dies. BLOOD will be on the hands of the GOP & Trump Administration.

Honest quote about Al-Sayd and why he would lose in general election: "He cares more about Gaza then he does about Detroit". This from a Detroit pastor with the National Action Network, a key Black political org. White college kids, far left DSA, and Muslims could hand this seat to Republicans

I find it shocking to watch Al Sayd, Mamdani and Bernie engage in the same ugly rhetoric as Nick Fuentes, Tucker Carlson and Marjorie Taylor Greene. The DSA mask comes off.
