Yes, Trump’s crypto grifts, well reported in NYT, reveal unprecedented corruption. But they also reveal that the people who can ruin the economy are in effect shorting the US dollar.

Trump's mishandling of the economy during his first 100 days shouldn't surprise anyone. He doesn't understand the economy and tanked pretty much every business he ever touched. Watch. https://youtu.be/zbh9SW5Cgqg?si=tmQLdtdCWpVAWW-r
How Trump Killed Every Business He Touched | Robert Reich

It’s clear: Trump and Musk want to make it harder and harder for the elderly and disabled to utilize Social Security.
They don’t care how much pain they cause. Their ultimate goal is to make Social Security dysfunctional, to privatize it and to let Wall Street take it over.

The Social Security Administration has already cut 7,000 jobs.
As a result, its website is crashing. Phone lines are overwhelmed. Beneficiaries can't get service.
What is DOGE recommending now? More layoffs.

"All we say to America is, 'Be true to what you said on paper.'"
These words — spoken by MLK Jr. shortly before he was killed on this day in 1968 — ring just as true now.
Let's honor his legacy by continuing the fight for social and economic justice.

The Trump regime will round you up off the street and arrest you because you spoke your mind.
And federal agents in plain clothes and unmarked cars who refuse to identify themselves will be the ones to do it.
It's fascism.
Call it what it is.

Witkoff was a fool for joining that chat from Moscow. But the entire charlatan national security team also chose to put him on that chat when they knew (or should have known) that he was in Moscow. A spy novel based on this level of cretinous behavior would be unbelievable.
If they’re sharing highly classified military plans over Signal while some of the folks on the thread are overseas, what *else* are they doing?
