The vibecession isn't a disconnect between sentiment and the economy. It is the predictable result of reading economy-wide flow metrics — which are dominated by the top — to people whose lived balance sheets are dominated by liabilities, essentials, and risk-shift exposure. 5/

“many thanks ))) nostalgia. I played in this game in 2000-2001 years with my mother ))))) sorry, Iam bad speaking in english ! Iam Russian!”
They're also talking about the need to cut down on "too much banking regulation" It's like rehashing a greatest hits of W Bush era failures
The only good Republican is a former Republican and I'm not very particular about which path they take to that destination.
🚨 Breaking from the US Senator for Connecticut. 👇 There you have it. ICE has never been about immigration enforcement. It's a weapon used to brutalize Americans and stoke enough fear so that Trump can rig the elections and usher in dictatorship.
Now that the Trump admin has killed three people in public, I want to remind you of what he said 36 years ago. This was always the plan.
🚨HOLY CRAP. An ICE whistleblower just revealed a secret memo authorizing ICE officers to break into homes without a judicial warrant, which DHS's own legal training materials say is unconstitutional! ICE then hid the memo from the public, passing it along by word of mouth and private conversation.
BREAKING: Immigration officers are asserting sweeping power to enter homes without a judge’s warrant, a memo obtained by AP says.
Voters: we want it to be 2019 forever! Trump: hahahaha 2020 forever!
16 hours in, my guess this was all intended basically as a coup to put VP Delcy Rodriguez in power (likely without her knowledge but 🤷). At least for democracy & human rights, that might be even worse than the "opening shots in a war" scenario. All speculation, but let me explain:
this entire scheme relies on believing that American courts have more jurisdiction over overseas foreign heads of state than they do the President
Attack and a dozen transport helicopters see flying at low altitudes across Caracas, the transport helis have a capacity of up to 400 US invaders. US paratroopers are reported to have landed at Maduro’s residence and are fighting Venezuelan defence forces. #VenezuelaInvasion
The President of the United States is a piece of shit pedophile.
1. BREAKING In an undercover operation last year, the FBI recorded Tom Homan, now the White House border czar, accepting $50,000 in cash after indicating he could help the agents — who were posing as business executives — win government contracts in a second Trump administration.
Tom Homan was investigated for accepting $50,000 from undercover FBI agents. Trump's DOJ shut it down.
The FBI and Justice officials closed the investigation, which a Justice Department appointee had called a “deep state” probe in early 2025.

You watch as a child sobs for his mother—while masked agents of the state prepare to drag her away. ICE: “I don’t have any choice… [we’re just following orders].” The coward’s refrain. The excuse of weak, spineless men—echoed by every tool of tyranny throughout history.
why is the president the only person testing the limits of his power? everyone should see what they can get away with. what if zookeepers gave helicopters to gorillas? nobody has tried this
At the ICE raid and subsequent community resistance in Paramount, California this morning, this skater kid ate dozens of munitions from Border Patrol agents, walked away slowly and flipped them off.
the funniest thing about the “ice agents are human beings with families” line is that there is no evidence to support the claim. oh they’re real people? what are their names? as far as I’m concerned they’re the T-1000 until proven otherwise
It’s incredible that the President of the United States is openly flirting with suspending Habeas Corpus, disappearing people left and right, arresting judges and politicians, accepting ludicrous bribes from foreign countries, and people are still trying to normalize this shit.
JD Vance killed the last Pope and they elect a guy who twitter dunks on him in response i respect it
Franklin Roosevelt put people who were born in the United States into concentration camps. It's naive to think something like that couldn't happen again.
Each chaotic policy shift isn’t a bug, it’s a feature. Trump and his cronies are pumping and dumping every move to extract unprecedented wealth—while the health of the broader economy isn’t even an afterthought. /3
