Q: On Epstein, would the WH support a professional handwriting expert review of the doc released yesterday to prove it's not Trump's signature? LEAVITT: Sure, we would support that. In fact, I've already seen many forensic analysts who say this absolutely was not the president's authentic signature

Please read this excellent essay: "The U.S. is drifting into an undeclared war of assassination across half a hemisphere, led by unaccountable officials who equate explosions with effectiveness."

212,000 women have been pushed out of the workforce since January due to Trump's economy, often resulting in lost healthcare coverage and increased costs for families. #Trumpflation

When rent doubles but wages don’t, families live with a clock ticking above their heads. One pink slip. One medical bill. One eviction notice — and they’re out on the street. That’s not fate. That’s policy. That’s #Trumpflation tearing dignity out of the American dream.

If Trump gets his way, everyone will be draining their savings just to keep the lights on.

There's a thread on AskReddit asking, "People who have had to drain their life’s savings on a single event, what happened?" 99% of the answers are depressing American stories about medical bills, 1% is an Australian who found a wombat burrowing under their house.
A wombat undermined our house to build his burrow.

Nearly $50k in foundation repairs, plus $200 in chicken wire to keep him out.

Now he’s done the same thing to the shed, so $5k to build a new shed on the other side of the property.

Here he is, old Fat Bastard himself..

Edit: it’s wild how many people are suggesting we “get rid” him... Apart from it being very much illegal, the idea would just never even cross my mind. It’s his home too.

He’s now settled in his new burrow, and our house is wombat-proofed. The worst he does now is dig up my potatoes.

We told the truth about who he is. It has nothing to do with any other Italian or person of Italian descent. He was a mass-murderer, thief, enslaver, torturer, and incompetent governor who was despised by his own men & fellow officers and died penniless after being imprisoned.

China just announced 84% tariffs on the US. There is no winner in a global trade war. This isn’t a negotiation, it’s an economic pissing contest that is going to ruin the economies of several nations if people don’t get their shit together.

We need to learn that the presidency is not a game or entertainment TV. It has real-world consequences. We can have a handful of bozos in the Senate or the House and survive. But if we keep electing a president living in his own reality—it eventually bites us all in a big way.

If you're over the age of 60 you're in deep, deep trouble, and your generation made it. 401k? Smashed! Social Security? Anemic and disappearing. The job market? In recession and certainly not built for retirement aged folks. Solution? It's certainly not "live in a tent." Homelessness is illegal now

A tricky thing about modern society is that no one has any idea when they don’t die. Like, the number of lives saved by controlling air pollution in America is probably over 200,000 per year, but the number of people who think their life was saved by controlling air pollution is zero.
