What’s going on? Why aren’t investors pricing in all these risks? Are the markets really just doing great? There are other ways to interpret what’s going on, and none of them are particularly assuring:
Trump Says We Have the “Hottest” Economy. Markets Tell a Different Story.
The U.S. economy entered 2025 as the “envy of the world.” It exited well behind its peers.

Hegseth didn’t have the courage to give Mark Kelly a trial by court martial because he knew he would lose it and be humiliated. So he is taking the cowardly way out. Whatever action he takes unilaterally will discredit US military civilian leadership and be reversed in 3 years.

Tripping is a learned skill. It's like driving or riding a bike — anyone can learn how, but it takes time & experience to master.
Don't rush into a heroic dose of shrooms or a DMT breakthrough right away. Learn how to ride the fucking bike before you hurt yourself.

All of MAGA world still believes that it was Nancy Pelosi who failed to send the National Guard that day, and no amount of facts, proof, or evidence will convince them otherwise.
Pelosi: “The President incited an insurrection. We begged him to send the National Guard, they never sent them. This President is trying to re-write history… it was an assault on the constitution of 🇺🇸.”

What we’re being told is that a guy who is an adjudicated rapist, who was credibly accused of sexual assault by dozens of women, who paid hush money to a porn star, who cheated on all his wives, who is mentioned hundreds of times in the Epstein files, couldn’t possibly be a sexual predator.

tRump did such a bang-up job with his favorite word, “Tariffs”, that he caused Canadian retailers to pull American spirits from their shelves. Consequently, Jim Beam plans to pause production at its main distillery in Kentucky.
