"Always remember others may hate you. But those who hate you don't win, unless you hate them. And THEN, you destroy yourself."
—Richard Nixon's Resignation Speech

Nixon was much smarter than DJT, so Trump's fate will be much worse.

Congrats to everyone who put Republicans in charge "for the economy," the first three quarters of 2025 already had more layoffs than any of the years in which Biden or Obama was President except 2009 (when Dems were still cleaning up the prior Republican mess).

Layoffs Already Higher Than for Any Full Year Since 2020
Announced US job cuts by quarter

It’s been harder than normal to get a grasp on the US labor market lately, with several agencies that produce key economic data, including the Bureau of Labor Statistics, going dark during the government shutdown. Even before that, President Donald Trump’s efforts to downsize the US government left holes in the sprawling federal statistical system. But private datasets have helped fill in some of the gaps.

A report from outplacement firm Challenger, Gray & Christmas showed almost 950,000 US job cuts this year through September, the highest year-to-date total since 2020—and that was before the heavy October run of announcements. (Excluding that first year of the Covid-19 pandemic, US job cuts in the first nine months have already surpassed full-year layoffs for every year since 2009.) When something is almost the worst since the Great Recession, North says, “that’s not a very encouraging number.”

And yet stupid retail investors pour money into every US mining stock that will take YEARS to produce anything, if ever, with no way to refine any of it. That’s the market China has cornered…mineral processing.

What a fucking stupid statement SHE makes (forget him-he's an idiot all the time) I have A LOT invested in the stock market and I see ALL the price hikes everywhere!

I don't even ask for receipts in the supermarket anymore bc I don't want to SEE the insane costs I'm paying for food.

Yeah well, now that Trump went on 60 Minutes (good lord in heaven #demented) and said we're NOT letting $NVDA sell chips to China-it's likely going to come off a bit.

it's utterly wild how the Heritage Foundation president talks about other people

if you found a guy talking like this outside, you'd probably call the cops

But here’s the most uncomfortable truth of all: the parasites that have taken over so much of our country—pantsuited girlboss advertising executives, Skittle-haired they/them activists, soy-faced pajama-clad work-from-home HR apparatchiks, Adderall-addicted dog mom diversity consultants, nasally voiced Ivy League regulatory lawyers, obese George Soros–funded police abolitionist district attorneys, hipster trust fund socialists—are some of the least impressive people in the history of the world. The Uniparty would never have achieved what it has in this country without a great degree of rottenness, of decadence, of torpor, of complacency already

The thing about his mental erosion is he's having a harder time lying.
More interesting, if he 'knew nothing about it' and SIGNED HIS NAME ON THE PARDON-that's way worse that Biden using an autopen!

Good luck! This younger generation is NOTHING like mine where we entertained all the time.

Makes me sad actually. My Mom taught me & my sisters how to cook & host big family holiday meals w/ beautiful table settings as a creative art & expression of love.

I buy my kid placemats & she's clueless 😥

DST is always disorienting for me as Asian markets open an hour earlier for 6 months 🙃. Take a few days to reorient but I don't have to stay up as late every night.

What these idiots don't understand is it's TOO LATE. Immigrants built this country and make it thrive and younger women are racing in front of men at the fastest paste in history.

Propaganda won't turn back the clock.

Medicare for All would save $450B a year.

Every dollar spent on food stamps generates $1.50-$1.80 in economic activity.

Each dollar going to low-wage workers adds $1.20 to the economy overall.

It’s not about what this country can or can’t afford.

It’s about priorities.

Billions and billions in taxpayer dollars to this man’s company — yet we’re told there was no money to extend food assistance to those who need it here on Earth 🌎 🤷🏼
