Trump’s America
Because of the legal shell game they set up. Ostensibly these people were hired into the US Digital Service and that was folded into the Executive Office of the President so it’s “not an agency”. A federal court only just ruled that DOGE is subject to FOIA

Trump’s America
Perhaps the beginning of accountability and sunlight into this shadow presidency

Tariff wars, they have began
So first of all - so great for all the US based champagne producers… This is such a dumb way to run a country. It truly seems like he’s trying to crash the economy

The Leopards Eating Faces and Unlubed Dildo of Consequences Thread
We’re disappearing green card holders for their speech - of course the precedent was set when we looked the other way when Virginia resident and WaPo journalist was murdered by MBS so what do we care of middle Eastern people anyway. We are permitting a foreign billionaire to dismantle US agencies that have active regulatory enforcement investigations into his companies simply bc he was the President’s biggest donor We have politicized our entire federal law enforcement arm from prosecutors to the FBI itself - no more impartial rule of law, emphasized of course by pardoning terrorists who assaulted cops in a literal effort to stop the certification of votes electing a President I used to believe there were immutable issues that everyone shared that were the backbone of the American idea. We’ve instead become a Russian vassal state All that to say that I don’t believe in third rails. There’s not a single issue this government can take on that will result in a wholesale rejection of Trump or MAGA. GOP politicians and voters alike would rather eat glass than admit we should have people inspecting our food to make sure it doesn’t have glass in it

Tariff wars, they have began
They genuinely believe (or refuse to correct) that tariffs can replace the revenue from income taxes.

Tariff wars, they have began
Yes and it’s 25% - cartoon idiocy. EU retaliation already levied

Trump’s America
So we all have GOP Congress to thank to taping our feet to the bicycle and forcing us to endure whatever tariffs fuckery comes next with no legal off ramp. Just fantastic work

Dallas Cowboys 2024 Season Thread -- Jerrah the Asshat Rides Again
I have to believe this is mostly because of poor cap management. It’s not like there’s a ton of room in the budget unspent- it’s that they don’t prioritize putting money aside for free agency. Any signings they do make I seem to remember also news of key players restructuring their contracts to make the cap space available

Dallas Cowboys 2024 Season Thread -- Jerrah the Asshat Rides Again
Some of our OL draft picks have actually been a bright spot for a unit otherwise completely neglected by Jerry. If they don’t score TDs he won’t pay. See also why the defense sucks

Elon Musk: Nazi traitor piece of shit [Confirmed]
Using the fucking White House as a backdrop to benefit a billionaire donor who also is destroying the government’s ability to regulate business or innovate. And the media has given up on reporting corruption or illegality of any of these actions. “The President looked at Teslas on the White House lawn and went ‘Vroom vroom.’ Today is the day Trump became the people’s President”

The Trump Economy
- Ukraine War
Notice how it’s only words with Russia but actual consequences for Ukraine?- The Trump Economy
It’s depressing how this is probably the correct answer- that combined with a healthy “Jews control the banks, so let’s screw them while making money on manipulating crypto”. Otherwise I can’t make much sense of him railing against (((globalists)))- Elon Musk: Nazi traitor piece of shit [Confirmed]
No, man - it’s bad faith attempts to create facts to beat the many lawsuits challenging Elon’s authority. Particularly litigation based on the Appointments clause. This was only a little later:- Русский корабль - иди нахуй
Well I guess instead of creating an asylum policy to remedy the wrongs of turning away a ship full of refugees running from Hitler and sending them home to war, torture, and death - we decided we wanted to embrace that tradition and repeat it on a larger scale- Русский корабль - иди нахуй
they never wanted a mineral rights deal. They wanted to lure Zelensky to a meeting and they coordinated with the Russians before. I’d be outraged but this administration is clearly pushing for Ukrainian surrender and doing everything in its power to aid Russia in those efforts- Ukraine War
So to recap- we’re preventing delivery of weapons and aid we already approved and paid for. We stopped sharing intelligence with Ukraine. The Secretary of Defense ordered a stand down on fights against Russian cybersecurity threats. Can the press stop repeating the administration’s lies about peace and just admit that we are using all of our leverage to force a Ukrainian surrender?- The Trump Economy
So can anyone articulate an end game or policy goal for tariffs? Because it sure seems like Trump really intends to make them permanent under the sincere belief that he’ll be able to balance the budget. And no one is left with courage to tell him why that’s so fucking dumb- The Trump Economy
But what is the end game? In the last administration tariffs were a stick to force new trade deals in place of NAFTA and agreements on IP with China. Here, what’s the actual purpose?- The Trump Economy
A self imposed worldwide great depression by a country that was leading the Western world in growth and stability. Has history ever seen such a thing on this scale?- Non-political tariffs thread
Well it’s 20% on imports from China as of today. Markets are collapsing, GDP contracting instead of growing, inflation rising, and every day consumer prices just shot through the roof. Can’t wait for all the manufacturing jobs to start up, right guys? That’s definitely what companies will spend their capital on in this economic environment, right?- Ukraine War
The President is illegally impounding all military spending to Ukraine and lifting sanctions on Russia. Oh and we’re crashing the economy by Presidential fiat. Putin runs this country- Trump’s America
So I guess the President can now simply choose not to enforce any laws he doesn’t like. Let’s call it the TikTok principle. Democracy was nice, it’s such a shame to see it gone- Elon Musk: Nazi traitor piece of shit [Confirmed]
Don’t worry! Their future is actually measured by potential to sell personal service robots and will have nothing to do with cars so that surely will explain why the stock doesn’t crater- Ukraine War
See, while you are rightly embarrassed by this ambush, the Joe Rogan crowd are only too excited to support it: No word yet if Theo Vonn is receiving cash for these takes like other right wing podcasters or if he’s just an idiot - Ukraine War
