We solved covid by stopping the counting. Now we will prevent the recession.
Alt text: "Screenshot of the Federal Reserve Bank of Atlanta’s website about GDPNow. It mentions GDP growth rate, describes GDPNow's methodology, and states it's not the official forecast. There's a notice about discontinuing GDPNow support and a prompt to download the EconomyNow app for updates."

Somehow I'm noticing it, even though officially it is verboten
Freewheelin' inflation everywhere

For the 15th year running, media still thinks what Trump says is news. It's not.
Screen cap of NBC News headline: "Trump told Zelenskyy and allies he won't discuss territory divisions with Putin this week."

I'm reposting this guy because we live in hideous times. Honestly nobody speaks better truth, how awful is that
A screenshot of a tweet by Greg J Stoker (@gregjstoker) posted on July 25, 2025, at 1:20 PM, with 119 views. The tweet reads: "85% of Gaza's population has entered phase 5 of malnutrition. Irreversible even if food becomes available. As another People are annihilated upon the profane altar of Capitalism, we must all agree this time will be different. Remember Piers Morgan and every genocide propagandist, remember every Biden functionary and Trump official and every cop who stormed the halls of Columbia University. Remember all those who were silent. Through the graves the wind is blowing, Justice will come." The tweet has a "Boost" button in the top right corner. The profile picture shows a man with light-colored, messy hair, wearing a jacket with a hood.

Question is not whether we can get past Trumpism, question is are we prepared to pay the price to do so.

Oh and here's an infographic
This chart illustrates World War II military deaths in Europe by front and year. The "Western, Mediterranean fronts" (left) show 0.93 million Allied deaths (UK, France, USA, Italy, Canada, Greece, Belgium, Netherlands) and 0.83 million Axis deaths (Germany, Italy), displayed in a bar chart by year (1939-1945). The "Eastern front" (right) shows 11.28 million Allied deaths (USSR, Yugoslavia, Poland, Czech) and 5.48 million Axis deaths (Germany, Hungary, Romania, Croatia, Finland, Italy, collaborators), displayed in a bar chart by year (1940-1945). A map of Europe from Autumn 1944 shows Allied (blue) and Axis (brown) control, visually representing the fronts. Source: Sergey Mavrody

I don't know who needs to hear this but it almost sounds like MTG is going to add laws on the books that could be used to curb CO2 emissions
Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene... I am introducing a bill that prohibits the injection, release, or dispersion of chemicals or substances into the atmosphere for the express purpose of altering weather, temperature, climate, or sunlight intensity. It will be a felony offense. I have been researching weather modification and working with the legislative counsel for months writing this bill. It will be similar to Florida's Senate Bill 56. We must end the dangerous and deadly practice of weather modification and geoengineering.

Seriously? Big Brother is THIS guy?
The image features a large banner of Donald Trump displayed on the side of a government building. The banner includes the text "USDA" and is depicted outdoors. The scene captures an architectural facade with columns and windows.

What oh just current inbound cargo counts at the Port of Los Angeles.

Half of everything you buy is not coming.
The image features a graphical user interface for an application displaying import volumes at the Port of Los Angeles. It includes data for several weeks from April 20 to May 10, showing weekly volumes and changes in percentages. The screenshot indicates scheduled vessels for each week as well as the corresponding import figures: 120,608, 103,365, and 63,437 units.

More evidence to my hypothesis: everything Lutnick says is the truth but opposite

Musk's proposed "doge" logo. Note two sets of 8 stars and 14 teeth on the cog. The third reich references are coming fast and furious now.
A logo Elon Musk posted on X.com in 2024 for the "Department of Government Efficiency." It shows a happy cartoon dog, a backwards flag of the USA, and the word "DOGE" under a banner that says "Department of Government Efficiency." The "O" in "DOGE" is a golden gear with 14 teeth, surrounding a black ring with stars and dots, surrounding a partial USA flag that only shows 8 white stars in the blue field. Under the main banner are 8 white stars.
