Argentina needs $40B to shore up its currency. So that's how that's going.

"Promoted democracy abroad", well, erm, and some totalitarian death squads. Let's not get carried away.

Is it maybe the only test he's ever actually passed?

You must work in private equity.

In our system, the biggest corruption by the most elite is legalized, and then we're told to accept that it's inevitable. It was that way long before Trump, but he's put the process into overdrive and stopped bothering with any pretense.

"Why does he never bring back mice or small lizards? Do you think he even knows how to hunt?" - the cats, probably.

Wait, is Vladimir Putin going to try to become the king of France?

The DNC will be looking for exactly the wrong person to meet the moment, so she probably has a chance. In the primary, I mean, she'd get wiped in the general.

"The richest man on earth owns X."

Lol, I thought this was going to be a math problem.

Maybe at some point we should consider asking the people who actually have the money to actually pay taxes for a change.

Brain worm maybe, but not the RFK Jr. kind.

This begs the question of what he thinks he's "buying" with that $130 million.

Also the phrase "the identity of the entity" is stuck in my head now.

Their concept of the unitary executive is extremely unitary.

My theory of Trumps brain is that he starts with very little actual knowledge, then just imagines things to be whatever seems most convenient at the time. Then some combination of narcissism and senile dementia prevent him from accepting any information that conflicts with that.

Trump gave Amazon a $16 billion tax break to accelerate its investments this year.

Now, Amazon will replace 600,000 workers with robots as Jeff Bezos accelerates his plan to automate warehouses.

No. Corporate tax breaks do not trickle down to workers. Never have. Never will.

After I read this, I actually paid attention to one of their commercials, and I still have no idea.

Stephen Miller is the answer to the question, "What if Pee-wee Herman was a Nazi."

Austin Powers went back in time to attempt to steal Trump's mojo, but in the process discovered anti-mojo.

When Massachusetts passed a "millionaires tax" in 2023, conservatives claimed the rich would flee.

But two years later, they haven't — and MA has collected $5.7B for infrastructure and public education.

A reminder that positive change can still happen at the state level.

Wow. And his mental decline is so severe that even if there were anyone left in his administration who would try to correct him, he'd never accept it.
