Econ. Markets. Politics. Fact-checker before it became fashionable (and necessary).
Nothing but respect for @katiephang.bsky.social, but the other side knows no rules and has nothing but contempt and disdain for the rule of law.
NEW: Katie Phang just escalated her Epstein files fight with Trump’s DOJ, demanding a judge review hidden FBI notes tied to reports mentioning Trump. And her new filing absolutely tears apart DOJ’s latest excuse.
I'm old enough to remember when AI was Alternative Investments.
Where is my tiny violin? Milo can fuck all the way off.
Former Kanye West aide Milo Yiannopoulos walks back his support for Trump after his ICE arrest: "If I had any clue that anything remotely like this was even possible, I would have never gotten involved in supporting Trump in the first place"
For a military that's been rendered as impotent as Iran's, they're putting up a helluva fight. Maybe they were early adopters of Pete's Low-T treatments.
Who presided over a boom in construction spending on manufacturing? Surprise!
If the scourge and stench of this Trump-led GOP is ever vanquished, how long will it take for Americans to believe any government utterance?
Where are those trillions and trillions of dollars flowing into our manufacturing capabilities? 🤔
I've highlighted the parts of Trump's comments that are either questionable or outright bullshit.
So, Peter Gabriel is in a silo. Interesting. Let’s see if this goes anywhere. 🤔
Who remembers this Trump comment about the Venezuelan oil we’re about to steal?
Show this image to a gas station attendant and they are required to charge you only $2.50/gallon. Take it to the supermarket and the cashier will apply a 25% discount to your bill. Use a copy of this image for 50% off with your utility company. Promises made. Promises kept.
Ex trade in energy, the US runs a trade surplus with Canada, as seen below with Census data. Trump remains an idiot.
With the Great Orange Pustule's new edict on the Great Lakes, I guess we can change the mnemonic from HOMES to SHAME, which feels entirely appropriate.
I think (too much) about the depth and breadth of stupidity that's been exposed in our country since Trump's ascent to power. And then I consider that two guys with the same name will be on Alaska's ballot in November. 😱
Happy to see the one and only Jason Zweig (@jasonzweigwsj.bsky.social) here. Definitely worth a follow.
Friends and relatives constantly ask why I'm so despondent and increasingly pessimistic. Thank you to this woman for articulating it so clearly. Thank you, #MAGA.
At what point after hearing of the Lake Ontario name change does Carney totally capitulate?
No one will ever convince me the lyric is not “she’s so funky now.”
