Donald Trump just unilaterally bombed Iran. A masked gang is terrorizing our streets. America has rapidly devolved into an authoritarian state.

That's why, today, The Onion has purchased a full page ad in today's New York Times with a simple plea to Congress:

Sit back and do absolutely nothing.

Not sure they lob a bomb on Iran or not, but the news bot seems to be really going off on this story overnight. Defense and energy stocks worth watching if money rotates into those.

This is appalling. We are stepping over "the brink" of fascist dictatorship if we don't resist. The Atlantic is becoming a parody of itself

This is the only way Trump ‘makes deals’. Today bitching and moaning how it’s hard to make a deal with China. Not sure we can ever unfuck ourselves after this, and we’re still only months in.

A special measure so Trump can continue breaking the law.

Buried deep in the text of the more than 1,000-page bill is a measure that would restrict the federal courts’ authority to hold government officials in contempt if they violate court orders.

Trump, who cut the National Weather Service, has been silent about the 23 people who were recently killed in storms and tornadoes in Kentucky.

Instead, he’s been posting multiple Middle East trip propaganda videos featuring himself.

If I were the owner of the @washingtonpost.com, I would not do a deal with the people who dismembered my columnist. Seems like a low bar, but Bezos managed to not clear yet another one. The world is awash in capital and that this is the choice should tell you all.
He’s so poor, all he has is money.
Jeff Bezos once mourned Jamal Khashoggi in public—now the Amazon billionaire is making billion-dollar deals with his executioner, which reveals more about his values than any vigil ever could.

Trump listened to Fed Chair (who he picked) Powell today. Tariff risk too high and unpredictable. He’d never admit it but this is what happened.
Brief rally incoming. China meeting on Saturday, if it happens, could be interesting. I think Trump is reading the Fed more than other countries and reacting here.
