JD Vance - "Give us another chance. Give us another 2 years." What about this past 2 years would you let them do again to you and your family?

Using the same logic they like to use, if they don’t plan on pursuing the slush fund they should have no problem putting it on writing.

That was my point. We could afford a house when way too many people today can’t.

When I graduated from college in the early 80’s I was making $8.25/hr at a unionized grocery store. We were able to buy a house on my salary.

Well, 20 years ago nobody had heard of MAGA, so there’s that. It’s hard to beat Toyota quality. (We landed on Honda…) My wife was worried about range, even though 95% of the time we would have been fine. Maybe next time, if we live that long! 😬

We explored EV’s, but couldn’t quite convince my wife. We did go hybrid and really happy getting around 40 mpg overall vs. 22 in our 20 year old RAV4. (Got 59 mpg coming down from Mt Hood yesterday!)

Reminds me of Monty Python’s cheese shop sketch. “C: Aah, how about Cheddar? O: Well, we don’t get much call for it around here, sir. C: Not much ca–It’s the single most popular cheese in the world! O: Not ‘round here, sir.”

Blockading a blockade is the work of a pure stable genius like no one has ever seen before. Only Donald Trump could have thought of this. It's like, "You think you can shoot at us? Well, we'll show you—we'll shoot ourselves!!" We should all have tears in our eyes.

Fed Chair Jay Powell fired a warning shot today, reminding the White House that he holds some pretty important cards. Yes, it's drama, melodrama and soap opera. But it also really matters. And I admire how Powell has handled himself here. At the end of the second round, it's: Powell 2 Trump 0

Amazon just announced 14,000 layoffs. Its CEO made over $40M last year. UPS announced 48,000 layoffs. Its CEO made over $24M last year. Intel announced 20,000 layoffs. Its new CEO's pay package is valued at nearly $69M. This is what I mean when I say the system is rigged.
