THANK YOU! Been saying this for years. Imagine walking down the street and a shark just strolls by you. It doesn't belong there. That's how sharks feel when you're in the ocean. You don't belong there.

These people are just straight up working for Russia at this point. Putin owns Trump and Musk.

Trump: "You go up to Minnesota -- number one place in the entire country for the sale of Mercedes-Benz. And Somalians are buying them. They come here with low IQs and no money and they get rich. Do we feel stupid? Our fraud division is getting them all."

Republican politicians are *obsessed* with schoolchildren coming home a different gender because of pro-trans teachers, WHICH NEVER HAPPENS. But they are completely indifferent to schoolchildren not coming home *at all* because of guns, WHICH HAPPENS ALL THE TIME!

Reminder: no Republican president since 1980 has left the white house with a lower deficit than where they started. No Democrat president has left with a higher one.

When your policies and admin are so moronic and terrible that you have to rely on your kompromat as your only ally.

Q: How do you define socialism personally? JD VANCE: I think in reality what it actually means in the American context is you want to replace American workers with foreigners workers, and you want boys to play in girls' sports

This isn't hard. It's an economic liberal and a social conservative. On econ issues it is giving bailouts to preferred classes and workers (farmers), it's running huge deficits while giving welfare to certain groups (corporate welfare and tax cuts for wealthy). It is laden with corruptions and grift

On social issues it's about forcing a worldview on the populace, denigrating races or classes of individuals and taking a preferred religion or belief system and imposing one's morality on the masses. Tell me who the socialists are in today's government.

incredible: just two states that haven't reached the $6/gal mark for diesel, but they'll likely join today, making it all 50 states that have diesel prices >$6 per gallon. Texas and Oklahoma clinging (for now) at $5.98 and $5.99, respectively. come on in, the water's boiling!

Trump is 80 years old. He's been obsessed with trade and tariffs longer than a great many people here have been alive. And in all that time, he's never come, remotely, to understand even the basics of how either works.

We've been charged $110 billion for fuel and $166 billion for tariffs and somehow this administration is running a $2 trillion deficit as well. I think I found our inflation problem.

One way to understand Trump's trade views: In his private business, Trump got used to not paying for things—stiffing the granite-countertop contractor, or chandelier salesman—but still got the products anyway. So maybe he thinks America should just be getting the world's goods for free, too.
