What is isolation was not a side effect of Social Media, but a goal?

It seems like Musk and Zuckerberg are hoping for it.

Chief Justice Roberts asks the Solicitor General of the Department of Justice (D. John Sauer), "Who pays the tariffs?"

The Trump Administration's Answer before SCOTUS is NOT the country being tariffed.

(In other words, China does not pay the tariffs).

This is Tocqueville in why religion is so much more prevalent in the US as opposed to Europe.

A separation of Church and State.

It's as if Vance didn't read Tocqueville or the Constitution.

One more book added to the pile! This is, When Globalization Fails, by James MacDonald

It won't be long before I get a chance to read this classic.

Putnam asked: Why is there an increase in people bowling and a decrease in bowling leagues?

It was groundbreaking at its time and has been updated for 21st Century America.

I'm looking forward to reading it!

I have decided to read, Why Liberalism Failed by Patrick Deneen

Why?

Because Deneen is one of JD Vance's heroes

And JD Vance is Evil

So, to understand the Evil that is JD Vance, one way to do that is by reading books he likes

It's the reason why I'm still working my way through Tocqueville

To be clear:

Trump bailed out Argentina, who then used the bail out money to lower their costs on grains and soy bean, which they, then, sold to China at a loser rate.

China has not been buying soy beans from the US since May.

Farmers, who largely voted for Trump are being screwed by him.

Democrats aren't taking away your way of life

Republicans are taking away your way of making a living

Huh. So, JD Vance (a reader of Tocqueville, and funded by Peter Thiel) knows rich people hate Democracy.

It's almost as if... Vance doesn't care about Democracy.

Are we witnessing the end of the Post World War Two Order?

I have been worrying about this since before the 2024 election took place.

I'm reading Democracy in America by Alexis de Tocqueville for the first time through.

In just a few paragraphs, on of his main arguments is demonstrably proven false.

Not all immigrants to the Americas spoke the same language.

Did Tocqueville even hear of New Amsterdam?

Here's the list of Republicans who covered for Trump regarding the release of the Epstein Files.

Notably, Chip Roy was not around to vote to release the files.

I'm sure these Reps will be fielding a lot of calls asking why they are protecting Epstein/Trump

I want to remind everyone who will get the contract to help build the Golden Dome.

This ugly bastard.

Way to go, Donald. You screwed over your base.

And way to go farmers for voting for him again despite being screwed over the FIRST time.

So, this is an example of how tariffs impact small businesses.

This is a list of wines coming in from Europe that will not be in the US until *after* the EU tariffs are in effect.

The first price is the current price, the second price is what the cost will be after the tariffs.

This map shows the amount of Federal Jobs in each congressional district. Obviously, if you total them up in each state that would mean the numbers each Senate Seat.

You should call your Congressperson and Senator and had ask the following questions (see comments below)

I calculated that if the Administration truly wants an Iron Dome (which is a waste of government money for something that is only 90% accurate) it would cost over a Trillion Dollars.

So, who would get the contact to build the dome?

This ugly fucker, right here.

Such an ugly face

So ugly

So ugly
