The global reserve currency issuer doesn't need strategic reserves. Full stop.

And buying ADA, XRP and SOL is a complete misuse of taxpayer funds.

Pete, you have to give Trump credit. More people have died in plane crashes in his first three weeks in office than in four years of the Biden administration. That's pretty MAGA!
The flying public needs answers. How many FAA personnel were just fired? What positions? And why?

Money talks
We got a Costco membership for the first time in our lives today. They asked why & I said because treat your workers well, you value diversity, & you didn’t cave in to authoritarian demands. He said: “We’ve been getting lots of folks saying that, thanks for joining.”

Begging the political press to stop just reporting on what Trump says he's done, and actually investigating what has *actually* happened. The focus on rushing out stories to be first is letting the MAGA world play you over and over and over again.

This is how you say “go fuck yourself sideways with a porcupine” in inspector general speak.

Going to be interesting to see how the administration responds

Good account of some of Trump's great moments in ignorance since he took office www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/202... It's amazing that so much ignorance can be stuffed into one person.
Opinion | Trump returns — and so does his astounding ignorance
If you feel off-kilter, you’re in good company. The president seems downright bewildered.

It’s 25 degrees in Kansas City where the Chiefs and Texans are playing for a full stadium. Guess it’s only dangerous when it’s an inauguration.

Speaker Johnson best think twice before threatening the 5th largest economy in the world.
Someone tell that sanctimonious pixie Speaker Mike Johnson that if he places conditions on California's ability to rebuild, his state, Louisiana, the Welfare Queen of Federalism, won't be able to fix any of its roads because that money comes from the far more successful economy of California.

As of January 1, Minnesotans won’t have co-pays higher than $25 per month for prescription drugs used to treat chronic diseases, and we’re putting a $50 per month cap on all related medical supplies.

We’re putting the wellbeing of our people before the profits of big pharma.
