The only mystery here is why he’s not blaming the trade pact he made with Mexico and Canada in his first term on Joe Biden. qz.com/trump-trade-...
Trump may demolish another trade deal he negotiated: USMCA
The USMCA pact binds the U.S., Mexico and Canada to some tariff-free trade. It's in fresh jeopardy ahead of a 2026 review

The regime has provided no legal justification for the bombings of small boats in the Caribbean and Pacific that Trump claims are trafficking drugs bound for the US.

In at least one of these strikes, Pete Hegseth ordered troops to leave no survivors.
Hegseth order on first Caribbean boat strike, officials say: Kill them all
Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth issued a verbal order to kill all crew members in the Sept. 2 strike on a suspected drug boat. Navy SEALs fired a second missile.

Tomorrow is our last chance to stomp the regime at the ballot box in 2025. We can flip a Tennessee district that Trump won by double digits, but only if we turn enough voters out — please make some calls to help us send @aftynbehn.bsky.social to Congress: www.mobilize.us/indivisible/...

Pete’s days are numbered. For all his attacks on journalists and outlets who report news he doesn’t like, Trump hates protracted negative news cycles anchored to one of his cabinet secretaries.
Opening the door to throw Hegseth under the bus:
Reporter: If there were a second strike that killed wounded people, would that be legal?

Trump: I don’t know that happened and Pete said he did not even know what people were talking about. I wouldn’t have wanted a second strike. The first strike was very lethal. It was fine.

And the income inequality gaps grows from canyon to abyss. Makes the financial parasites of the Gilded Age look like underachievers.
American corporations are on pace to spend $1.1 trillion on stock buybacks in 2025, an all-time high.

Buybacks don't create more jobs, increase wages, or grow the economy — but they do help juice CEO pay that's often tied to stock performance.

Nothing trickles down to workers.
