It feels disingenuous as I can't offer anyone anything, but as I won't be working for god only knows how long, I'll keep the ko-fi live and if anyone wants to kick me some cash they can but I'm more than aware of how financially fucked the world is right now

A $1 TRILLION CUT: “SUPPORTERS OF THE GOP BILL frequently claim they are protecting Medicaid, not cutting it. Trump himself has repeated these false claims... It’s about as blatant a lie as you’ll see in politics.”

And it will hurt his supporters most.

AOC: “A tremendous mistake… turns the federal government into a slush fund for Trump & Musk and cedes congressional authority… almost unthinkable why Senate Democrats would vote to to hand the few pieces of leverage that we have away for free…”

Right on cue, France’s RMC Sport just reported that DAZN will be the Club World Cup’s global broadcaster.

That means next to no one will watch it in the country that’s hosting the event.

The CFPB protects Americans from Wall Street's unfair financial practices, including excessive fees and misuse of consumer data.

Since 2011, it has returned $19.6 billion to consumers' pockets from corporate predators.

The Tariff Act of 1930 was designed for protectionist trade. It imposed high tariffs on over 20,000 imported goods which led to retaliatory tariffs from other countries.

Why am I telling you this?

In case you're ever asked "what were the key contributors to the Great Depression?"

The Trump regime has its sights set on the invasion of Mexico.

Trump’s picks, including his choices for secretary of defense national security adviser, and secretary of state, have publicly supported the idea of invading Mexico.

It’s a mistake to ask this question because it assumes Trump’s rationality.

He wants to do this because it makes him feel powerful. He doesn’t care if the effects are good or bad. Indeed, the more destruction he causes, or the more people fear destruction he may cause, the more powerful he feels.
A question I've been debating with economist friends is what Trump is trying to accomplish with his tariffs. I mean, he can't be demanding that Canada and Mexico — with whom we have a free trade agreement! — open their markets. Now he says it's about immigration and drugs 2/
