Look at this. Marjorie Taylor Greene bought Dollar General stock before the tariffs were announced. $DG has now risen 28% since her purchase.

The global tariffs Trump announced this week include remote territories like Heard and McDonald Islands in the Indian Ocean that don't actually have human populations. Here's what to know about them.

I always assumed I'd be a Buttigieg supporter post Biden, but then Harris introduced us to Walz and after learning more about him, if he runs... I'm in. I really like the E-8/E-9 rank aspect of his career. He wasn't given a commission, he became a leader by rising up. Respectable.

JD Vance claimed on X that “Slava Ukraini” protesters followed him & shouted at his daughter. Guess he didn’t realize it was caught on camera. No one yelled at his kid, and they didn’t follow them. Vance & Musk need to quit using children as shields. The public isn’t backing down—we want answers.

Mom, come pick me up, they're coming up with the silliest possible version of the Great Man Theory of History
Nate Silver shares a screenshot of someone saying

As an Elon Musk biographer, I would peg his IQ as between 100 and 110. There's zero evidence in his biography of anything higher

And I want to repeat that now lest you think it a typo 

There's zero evidence, from his life history, of musk having anything higher than 110 IQ

Nate Silver responds:

He's an exceptionally smart and accomplished guy. The much better take is that high IQs serve as a force multiplier for both positive and negative traits.

Like how can you be a remotely competent historian without recognizing that major events in human history are shaped by high IQ, high-agency people who are bad and/or flawed and/or dangerous.

At this point, I don’t think Trump even knows (or cares) as to what is happening within the White House. Elon paid to play, he helped to keep Trump out of prison, and has been awarded free range as a reward. And, it appears that Elon has his own agenda, which is outside the confines of US law.

What’s his beef against USAID in particu….oh. Wow.

Elon Musk

@elonmusk
We spent the weekend feeding USAID into the wood chipper. 

Could gone to some great parties.

Did that instead.U.S. policy was to help bring an end to apartheid and establish a nonracial, democratic government. In response to this policy and the Act, USAID/South Africa was responsible for financing projects that apartheid victims viewed as critical in promoting social, political, and economic change through peaceful means.

The mission enabled community consultation and ensured that the United States did not impose foreign-defined solutions to local problems. USAID created projects and activities to respond to the priorities of the black community and its leaders, maximized black participation and leadership, and ensured activities had a linkage to the general objectives of U.S. policy.

First-year funding for the program was $25 million, which was raised to $50 million the second year. The main project areas were community outreach and leadership development to redress the repression of black-led institutions; educational support and training to address the educational crisis in South Africa; black private enterprise development to combat the inhibiting effects of apartheid–induced discrimination in private enterprise; university grants to help create a new generation of economic and political leaders; human rights; legal assistance; labor union training; and health and nutrition

Often, the villain in the story, thinks that the atrocities they carry out are actually for the greater good. But, of course, they are misguided. Intent is irrelevant if millions of people are hurt, if they end up destroying the world and all that we hold dear. #ElonMusk #Project2025 #BondVillains
