Or it’s a trial balloon to see how the public and business responds. When the Trump admin says they will do something mind-boggling stupid (like tarries against Canada and Mexico) I take them seriously.

We are one month into the Trump admin. I expect the economy will not do so well after the tariffs hit next week and several hundred thousand government employees are laid off. Oh, and I expect we might see further problems when people aren’

I do not care about other shareholders. I do care about Musk. Tesla accounts for 60% of Musk’s wealth which he used to buy the US presidency and he continues to use to promote fascists around the world. Depressing the value of Tesla stock r

If what happened to USAID isn’t evidence enough for you, I suggest you go and read up on Project 2025. Below is a link to the chapter on the commerce department where they call for the dismantling of NOAA. As the head of the Office of Manag

The majority did not vote for Trump. He only received 49.8 of the vote. Turnout was at 63.7%, so Trump received the votes of around 31% of all eligible voters.

15.5 quarters is a long time. I think they’ll take advantage of this change and then deal with 2029 in 2029.

For sure. I did an experiment about a year ago where I submitted two different articles on the same topic, within the same 2 minute window. One had the word transgender in the title, the other didn’t. Guess which one was flagged into oblivi

No it does not make me feel better. I’m rather disgusted by 70 million of my fellow Americans, including a few family members and newly former friends. However, I think it’s important that we pushback on the idea that the fascists have an o
