Best line of the day: theaters showing “Melania” were so empty that it is suggested that undocumented immigrants should hide out there.

News Nation reporting seems to be blaming ICE's arrest and detention of non-offending undocumented immigrants on social justice workers who are keeping ICE from getting to the bad guys. Night is day, up is down.

Taylor Sheridan and the Soft Power of the Culture Wars. Please, some English major do the analysis. I love all of the shows as TV but they represent completely false narratives made whole through an onslaught of absolutely false information.

Remember the wonderful Biden economy. Last January, the expected US economic growth was 2.5-3%.
But now we have the Trump economy.
Yesterday, the US Fed cut its US growth forecast from 1.7% to 1.4%, but it is likely to fall further.
Trump & his supporters are to blame.

Imagine if Joe Biden, newly in office, had launched a company with Hunter Biden and used his social media to recruit financial backers.

Then promised the most generous among them would earn an invitation to a private dinner with him ... Trump just did that.
Trump Just Did the Most Corrupt Thing Any President Has Ever Done
He’s using the White House to get rich from anonymous investors—and it’s hardly even a news story.

Any harsher penalties for paying for sex will not make it safer for sex workers. The evidence is clear. Vote NO if #AB299 goes to the #NVSenate @rochellefornevada.bsky.social

12 states are mulling harsher penalties for trying to pay for sex

Many of the proposals would raise it from a misdemeanor to a felony. Some would make those convicted register as sex offenders.

One statistic for you:

→ Net jobs created under Clinton and Obama: 33.8 million.
→ Net jobs created under Bush, Bush, AND Trump: 1.9 million.

That is not a typo.
Of Course Trump Will Tank the Economy. It’s What Republicans Do.
As the president’s “Liberation Day” nears, it’s time to liberate ourselves from the vicious cycle of Democrats having to clean up the GOP’s messes.

If the current administration is looking to reset the economy, start by cutting the compensation of the CEO's and CFO's of the largest 100 US companies by a modest 20%. The math is very interesting.

“Transitioning” from 50 straight months of job growth, a 400% rise in manufacturing construction and the best back-to-back years for the stock market in a quarter century. 🤡

I mean it: that was one of the most distressing videos I’ve ever watched as an American.

Volodymyr Zelenskyy is the George Washington of Ukraine and one of the most heroic men alive. He sat through a shouted (televised) lecture by two of the _worst_ men alive.

A real-life horror film.
