News outlets breathlessly reporting that wholesale #egg prices are "sharply" down, but you might not notice it yet. I'm thinking it's the combination of wildly fluctuating tarrifs, asinine threats, and plummeting stock prices that did the trick. Day 59.

Day 57. Will the illegal deportation of the alleged gang members bring back the cheap #eggs??

Well, now that the Dems caved on the #budget for fear of getting blamed for a hypothetical government shutdown, we can get back to the Actual Ongoing Shutdown Of Everything As We Know It. Day 55: where's my cheap #eggs?

Day 53. Maybe after the Supreme Court rubber-stamps the birthright citizenship ban, #eggs will finally get cheaper??

I continue to feel separated in every meaningful way from people who think this is okay. I’m not sure being their neighbor or their fellow citizen is an achievable or desirable goal.

Thank you for NOT losing the game of chicken over the CR. The failure of one chamber/caucus to produce a workable plan should not be the other chamber's/caucus's problem.

Moving a detainee around to evade judicial review is classic authoritarian behavior.
The government claims Mahmoud Khalil was already in NJ on his way to Louisiana by the time his habeas petition was filed—an argument that the NY federal court lacks jurisdiction.

But Khalil's lawyer checked the ICE locator when she filed and even 4 hrs after, and he was listed as still being in NY.

Egg prices just went up another 10.4 percent. I'm shocked---simply shocked, I tell you!---that arresting a permanent legal resident for his political beliefs and threatening to revoke his green card hasn't resolved this issue! Day 52. Where's my cheap #eggs???

Day 51. Nobody can afford #eggs! But hey---I understand you can buy into #S&P500 stocks at rock-bottom prices!!! #silverlinings #eggsky

Day 50. #Eggs are still a luxury item. Surely there's an overpaid underage techbro somewhere who could easily fix this by accessing my sensitive data. #eggsky

I was promised cheap #Eggs on Day 1! Here we are 48 Days later, and prices haven't budged! You may not know that #SeedOils are the real culprit here. Inflation and Inflammation are almost identical, but nobody realizes.

It's Day 47. I was promised cheap #eggs. I demand that Justice Amy Coney Barrett keep her promise and right this wrong IMMEDIATELY!!!

Secretary Rollins has solved the #egg price problem! The answer was so obvious, I can't believe we didn't think of it sooner:
1. Buy a rural or suburban home. Move there.
2. Amend city ordinances and/or have your HOA abolished.
3. Fence your backyard. . . .

It's Day 45. #Eggs STILL cost $4.95 a Dozen, and Fearless Leader just Passed the Cluck to the Secretary of Agriculture! Amazing leadership!! Good luck, Madame Secretary!!!!!

/2 One of the most degraded and corrupt elements of the Trump wing of modern American evangelism is the indifference to Trumpists saying scandalously awful shit about Jesus and the Bible.

But they get their worldly power and support for hating people, so they don’t care.
