(NYT) - President Trump inherited an economy that was, by most conventional measures, firing on all cylinders. .. Just weeks into Mr. Trump’s term, the outlook is gloomier. @nytimes.com @bencasselman.bsky.social www.nytimes.com/2025/03/07/b...

“.. Witness Trump’s bizarre pattern of threatening small countries and allies instead of adversaries — nations from Canada to Denmark and Panama. Whereas the US used to attract other countries by promising to enhance their safety and freedom, it now repels them.” www.bloomberg.com/opinion/arti...

Just a quick observation that amid all the turmoil created by the Zelensky meeting, this got completely ignored: A Chinese citizen paid Trump $50 million for the SEC to drop its charges against him.

This man is barely even a formal government employee, let alone elected or Senate-confirmed. A total failure of the Constitutional order, just broadcast & normalized by every major media outlet.

natevince Heartbroken and Confused! I was terminated on Valentines Day from my dream job.
48 weeks ago I started my permanent NPS position as Yosemite's new Locksmith. y I apprenticed under the previous locksmith the 4 years before his retirement. He had a wonderful carrier of 23 years with NPS. He said, "This is a good job Nate, the park can't run without a locksmith, do your job well and your'll always have job."
Well now 3 weeks short of my probationary period l've been fired. I've had exemplary performance and am essential for park operations.
The people that fired me don't know who I am, or what I do.
They simply don't understand this park and how big and complex it is.I need to immediately move out of housing, I have lost my career and I have NO PLAN. This was my dream! All of my eggs were in this basket and I planned to stay till retirement. I had an appointment to meet a realtor today, but canceled, everything has been flipped upside down. I'm scared I?????????????????????!!!!!!??????????????????] I was terminated at 1:15pm 2/14/2025 via email.
Yosemite National Park the size of Rhode Island and has more locks than a small city, and without a locksmith I'm deeply concerned for the safety and security of the park and people in it. This is not right!

she’s STILL “working towards the creation of an agreement about raising their child”?? i thought right wingers were better organized about these things tbh
A Statement Regarding@stclairashley.
Ashley & Elon have been privately working towards the creation of an agreement about raising their child for some time. It is disappointing that a tabloid reporter, who repeatedly ambushed Ashley and her family, made it impossible to complete that process confidentially.
We are waiting for Elon to publicly acknowledge his parental role with Ashley, to end unwarranted speculation, and Ashley trusts that Elon intends to finish their agreement quickly, in the best interests of the wellbeing and security of the child they share.

America's greatest force multiplier and global strength has been its network of allies. Popular lore now sees them as a burden. So America is killing its alliances. The Trump-Musk-Vance administration's moves are an act of epic self-harm.

In the Soviet Bloc, the Communist Party assigned political minders/ commissars to every school, factory, army unit, etc to ensure ideological compliance and loyalty to the regime. Hiring was based on class background and demonstrated loyalty. Obviously, this is very different.

So basically Elon Musk and his team of Dogie Howsers, none of whom have gone through any security clearances or background checks from what I can tell, are going from one federal agency to another doing a couple Edward Snowden's per day...and not even for any plausibly believable principled reason.

That was known. Not unimportant! But known. The metadata aspect makes it seem like the administration was caught doing something. But what it was caught doing was what was predictable months ago: hiring the people who made Project 2025 in the first place. 2/2

The Heritage Foundation’s playbook isn’t the campaign’s. But Trump’s relegation of policy to staff makes the document an important preview of a second term.

The reason prominent voices from the "anti-war" and "anti-imperialist" left are expressing eager hope about Trump's foreign policy is the same reason they've been excusing, even defending, Russian imperialism: They've never been anti-war or anti-imperialism, they've always just been anti-American.
