Less perplexing:

“Republicans cut healthcare for Americans while at the same time giving funds to soybean farmers in Argentina. Just so he could help his wealthy friends there.”
I once had to film an interview in Kid Rock’s Nashville bar.

The options for the background were a sign that said “Big Ass” or a sign that said “Cadillac Pussy”
Kid Rock: Do you know what is stupid… these chicks running around on campuses with blue hair, five nose rings.

“I’m an American citizen with no warrants,” Johnson said.

“We are home now. We marched from the park to ICE, very peaceful crowd. We were standing around ICE pushed us down, sprayed us with chemical and I was hit in the head with a projectile. This was so unprovoked. People have to know that the Feds are attacking people with NO provocation whatsoever.”
The amount of money that will be spent just undoing all these clown shows is gonna be staggering if we’re lucky enough to spend it.

Just picked up my son from school in Chicago.

He told me they all stayed inside for 15 minutes at the end of school because there was an ICE van sitting outside during pickup. He’s at a neighborhood school in Bucktown with a bilingual program.

Chicago, Illinois, 2025:

"They had the Black people in one van, and the immigrants in another van."

"They was bringing the kids down, had them zip-tied to each other."

"I kept asking, 'What is the morality?' One of them laughed. He said, 'Fuck them kids.'"

This is just another way to pass money to Bessent’s rich friends.

Most of these subsidies will likely go to larger corporate farms and wealthy owners. Small farmer portions of these subsidies are typically very small.
Bessent: "It's unfortunate that Chinese leadership has decided to use American soybean farmers as a hostage or pawn in the trade negotiations. American farmers overwhelmingly voted for President Trump ... you should expect news on Tuesday on substantial support for our farmers."

From publicly demanding that Pam Bondi go after his political enemies to the reported decision to close a Tom Homan bribery case, the Justice Department is basically Donald Trump's personal law firm now.

There is no world in which it is normal for the president to publicly call upon his attorney general to hurry up and prosecute his political foes. It’s like the Watergate tapes but posted on social media. Let’s get a grip on what’s happening here.
