“Liquid Glass” is the most unserious design aesthetic. Apple may as well just change the default font to comic sans.

The Jerome Powell head shake while Trump bloviates about the cost of the Federal Reserve headquarters was devastating. 😂 I love when people treat him like he is just that dumb.

40% of Trump's wealth has been accumulated since he became president because of two crypto coins.

It's corruption, whether or not Republicans want to talk about it.

Can we PLEASE stop referring to it as the “Big, Beautiful Bill?” It’s bad enough we have to live through the erosion of American democracy, we don’t also have to use their incredibly stupid names.

Trump's crypto venture is fleecing his supporters.

80% of the new or small-time crypto investors in Trump’s coin have been hit with big losses.

Meanwhile, his team is making millions off the coin’s trading fees, which stay stable even when its value goes down.

It’s a grift.

I know some of you may do this anyway, but I nonetheless urge you NOT to send items like these to the United States Attorney’s Office for the District of Columbia, 601 D St. NW, Washington, DC 20530. Please do NOT do that. Thank you.

"...for every country, they just took our trade deficit with that country and divided it by the country's exports to us."

NEW: Donald Trump announced the US was imposing reciprocal tariffs on a small collection of Antarctic islands that are not inhabited by humans, as part of a global trade war aimed at asserting US dominance.

The Heard and McDonald Islands are known for their populations of penguins.
Trump Tariffs Hit Antarctic Islands Inhabited by Zero Humans and Many Penguins
The Heard and McDonald Islands are among the dozens of targets of President Donald Trump's latest round of tariffs. But they have no exports, because no one lives there.

This is true: The Trump administration said it has imposed a 10% tariff on the British Indian Ocean Territory, whose only inhabitants are the U.S. and U.K. service members at the military base on Diego Garcia.
Incredibly, this appears to be true. We tariffed our own (jointly operated with the UK) military base.
We tariffed BIOT, Mike.

BIOT. Diego fucking Garcia.

We tarrifed our own military base.
