If a seemingly innocent robotic vacuum can map your home and transmit it back to the manufacturer, imagine what a humanoid robot from Tesla might do.

I'm not paranoid, you're paranoid. Ok, you broke me. I'm paranoid, and only the paranoid survive. Stop Musk.

AOC: "It is unconscionable that what we are debating right now is legislation that will give 8 senators over $1 million a piece & we're robbing people of their food assistance & healthcare to pay for it. How can we vote to enrich ourselves by stealing from the American people?"

Trump claims the latest release of Epstein emails regarding him spending hours with one of his underage sex slaves is a hoax - just like climate change.

There are 8.6M undocumented immigrants employed in the US, or 5.6% of the workforce (~1 in 17 workers). We do not have 8.6M people to take those jobs, unless you paid far more to do the work. If you think inflation is bad now under Trump, deport 8.6M workers.

BREAKING: After 10 months of Trump, how is consumer sentiment doing?

It's at the lowest level ever.

Apparently, not everyone believes his BS.

Gov't shutdown must end by next week, or millions will not be spending Thanksgiving w/ their family.

OCT's massive layoffs insure a rate cut from the Fed in NOV.

SCOTUS must curb illegal tariffs to cut inflation & save economy teetering on recession.

How out of touch is the Trump WH?

Two days ago, Secretary Lutnick said jobs are booming and inflation is dropping.

Both are the opposite.

OCT had the most layoffs in 22 years. They're making up lies, hoping most people are as stupid as MAGA.

Last month marked worst October for layoffs in more than 20 years: Challenger
Employers announced 153,074 cuts last month, the highest total for October since 2003, according to Challenger, Gray & Christmas.

Bloomberg TV is deservedly joking about the Trump admin's lies.

Jonathan Ferro: "[Sec'y Treasury] Scott Bessent says jobs are booming and inflation of falling? How great is that?"

Mike McKee: "If only it were true."

Trump, & el, cannot lie their way out of the US economic problems they created.

Cava & Chipotle stocks are way down 54% and 47% YTD, respectively, while McDonalds is up 3%. That tells you everything about the impact on produce inflation on people dining out. They are either not dining out as much, or going to cheaper alternatives.

You can thank Trump tariffs & deportations.
November 5, 2025 at 2:30 PM
Trump's tariffs have nothing to do with fentanyl or nat'l security. They are taxation without representation, b'c the House abdicated its responsibility for tariffs to their fascist dictator.

SCOTUS needs to enforce the Constitution and return representation for taxes to the House. Period.
