NYT: "The rising deficit, which increased to $1.99 trillion this fiscal year from $1.78 trillion in 2025" the senile old man is delusional and the news media just seems to go along with it

I called Trump’s deal with Putin “a deepening betrayal” on Monday. Now it’s clear he’s a despicable traitor with blood on his hands as Ukraine’s civilian deaths mount—and who’s making all of us less safe. www.americaamerica.news/p/another-be...

Inclined to disagree with your analysis. The journalist's sole intent was to insult the intelligence of a Democratic politician with a knowingly bogus gotcha question; nothing more.

I've said for a long time that the economics profession owes Trump big time. You've never had a real world test of "what if a President does everything he can to raise inflation?" a generation of PhD dissertations will be written on this.

Brooks thinks Obama wouldn't seem to "fit[] in naturally" at an Applebee's salad bar -- maybe because Applebee's doesn't have them
On MSNBC, David Brooks asserted that "less educated" and "downscale" people "look at [Sen. Barack] Obama, and they don't see anything," adding: "And so, Obama's problem is he doesn't seem like the kin...

Always appreciate it when a Democrat talks like a normal person. What I also want to hear from @ossoff.bsky.social is his plan for accountability for all the crime-doers. To echo @vermontgmg.bsky.social make criming criminal again.

A statement of the form "Schmitt's team could not imagine Smith went to" is well-intended but naive. Never presume that a known manipulative liar is speaking in good faith. They were all lying through their lying teeth.

This was obvious from the start. They began with the knowledge that Smith attended a "game", and then added "Atlanta", "Hawks vs Warriors" and "only NBA game that night". They likely *knew* that Smith was instead in Maryland. That is why Schmitt blew up when Klobuchar began checking their claims.

Putting aside the merits of Palmer Luckey and Elon Musk as individuals, there's an inherent conflict of interest placing them on a board that will determine the future of a US military they intend to get rich selling to.

it didn't even occur to me that the government might try to execute someone a second time if they torture the person but fail to kill them during a first botched attempt. truly grotesque and a moral stain upon all involved.

If the Republicans get destroyed in the midterms, will Corporate Media still pretend that Trump has a mandate to do insanely horrible & unpopular things that he never discussed prior to his narrow 2024 election? Yes, of course. Will Corporate Media call on him to moderate, look left? Hahaha, no.
