  1. If this was really his intent, there are two things that he's doing that he wouldn't be doing. 1) He wouldn't be demanding things in return (ie, stop fentanyl, lol). 2) He wouldn't be backtracking and removing tariffs right away- or in some cases never implementing them in the first place. If I was a CEO of a corporation with production in Canada, and was convinced that Trump was intent on doing what the quote above attributes as his intent, I could act on that. I wouldn't like it, but the mandate would be clear. As it is though, why in the hell would I start the years long process of building a new billion dollar plant in Cleveland when the impetus for doing so could very well be null and void before the board meeting is over?
  2. Tesla's Market Cap is still 771B. While I agree that this current "rally" is temporary, this cat is a looooooooong way from dead.
  3. This is nice. Someone created a site and dashboard to deep dive into DOGE's claimed vs. real savings. https://www.muskwatch.com/p/introducing-the-musk-watch-doge-tracker https://doge.muskwatch.com/
  4. Trump official tasked with defending DOGE cuts posted fashion influencer videos from her office https://www.cnn.com/2025/03/11/politics/opm-spokesperson-fashion-influencer-videos-invs/index.html
  5. What's the opposite of Leopard ate my face? Chameleon scratched my taint? ...undignified huh. This you?
  6. Checked today. Delta had the cheapest flight, but they charge $150 each way. For an 8 year-old who needs a babysitter, sure. But this kid has flown dozens of times. Hell, I trust him to fly alone more than I trust my dad to, and he's flown hundreds.
  7. Just the Canadian one. He's so cool with the Mexican one, he built a wall on it.
  8. Also not gold, so no way it's actually his. When was the last time that guy drove a car anyway? It may be electric Don, but no, it's not like a golf cart.
  9. So dumb.
  10. Violence within the Capital Building is cool, but criminal mischief against a Company whose CEO has "no official role in government" is terrorism?
  11. The "I voted for Trump, but I didn't vote for..." posts are my favorite. Yes. You did.
  12. Fake news. You can't fool Trump. He knows that water only flows down, so it can't come from Mexico to Texas.
  13. At least I can still put my 14 year-old boy on a SWA flight alone without paying a $300 fee on top of the ticket. Pisses me off.
  14. You play dumb well then, given that several of us took it in earnest.
  15. No it wasn't, but I don't think it was dumb either. Here's a nice article that I think lays it all out really well. https://cars.usnews.com/cars-trucks/advice/which-automakers-will-be-affected-by-tariffs
  16. As evidenced by Japaneese makers also puckering right now. Lotsa Toyotas/Lexus' coming from Canadia too.
  17. Hard-hitting journelinst of the day award goes to... Peter Doocy?
  18. Don't know if this was purposeful, but it's perfect. No need to click on a link.
  19. Right now my only struggle is resisting the temptation to YOLO my whole stack day trading.
  20. There's a scene in Bridge of Spies where James Donovan is packing up for the secret hostage negotiation and his wife, knowing something is up but frustrated that he won't tell her, says "Just give me something to hold on to, I don't even care if it's the truth." I suspect that's basically what these groups were thinking.
  21. Fucking hell. "In some cases, photos seemed to be flagged for removal simply because their file included the word ”gay,” including service members with that last name and an image of the B-29 aircraft Enola Gay, which dropped the first atomic bomb on Hiroshima, Japan, during World War II. Several photos of an Army Corps of Engineers dredging project in California were marked for deletion, apparently because a local engineer in the photo had the last name Gay. And a photo of Army Corps biologists was on the list, seemingly because it mentioned they were recording data about fish — including their weight, size, hatchery and gender." Our history is being systematically erased by CTRL fucking F.
  22. Yeah, it's worth watching for sure. Based on the books from JK Rowling (Under the pseudonym Robert Galbraith).
