Must be wild living in the Fox News Cinematic Universe. It's like getting kicked in the head every day.
wow -- Fox Business is now treating Trump's completely made up economic boasts as though they are factual. Note the citation here -- "The White House" Reminder that the entire US economy is about $32t. If we really had $21t flowing in, you'd notice it Fox thinks their viewers are really dumb

I cannot overstate how important it is to amplify these lines of argument. We're in an unconsolidated authoritarian regime — and there's no line Trump and his inner circle won't cross *if* they think they can get away with it.
Crucial from @ryanenos.bsky.social: If you doubt Trump might try to seize ballot boxes, recall that not long ago it seemed outlandish that armed government militias would be roving our streets, killing people. On the pod, Ryan is so good on the danger of this moment: newrepublic.com/article/2132...

gosh, i'm shocked. taylor farms is a $7b agribiz that spreads from ca to fl & hosts high dollar fundraisers for republicans. big ag is notorious for not providing proper sanitation facilities in the fields. mass deportation now ensures workers won't complain. big ag = $139.5m to repubs in 2024.
“Investigators have linked shredded iceberg lettuce supplied to Taco Bell restaurants by Taylor Farms as a potential source of contamination in the outbreak of a parasitic illness that has sickened thousands in United States, according to two individuals familiar with the investigation.”

Oyer: "2 days after Blanche was confirmed as deputy AG, he fired me from my position as DOJ's career pardon attorney. I declined to rubber stamp a favor for a friend of the president, and it cost me my job. Mr Blanche's office had asked me to restore the gun rights of a convicted domestic abuser..."
