Thank you, MAGAts! --

 

Hey, remember all the talk about MAGA populism? It’s just the same GOP crap. Thanks a lot, Trump voters.

Good illustration of GOP. They thought they had an agreement to take health care coverage from 10 million Americans. But hardliners killed the budget bill for now because they say that’s not nearly enough people www.axios.com/newsletters/...

C-O-R-R-U-P-T-I-O-N --

 

On the left, the guy who ordered his 15-man death squad to kill and dismember American journalist Khashoggi in the Saudi consulate in Istanbul. On the right, the former leader of Al Qaeda with a $10m US bounty on his head. And in the middle, the most corrupt US President in history.

Younger folks around here might shocked to learn that once upon a time Bill Clinton let a few campaign donors have a sleepover at the White House & the national media spent months treating it as the greatest scandal in the history of the republic

Meanwhile, as America burns, elite media focusing on what's important (Biden old!) --

 

Today Trump's main legislative initiative died *in committee*, his main domestic policy initiative was declared unconstitutional by the Supreme Court, & his economic shenanigans got the whole country's credit downgraded. Let's talk about what's important: Biden Old

so to be clear about what happened here, the Trump White House released audio meant to make Joe Biden look bad to Axios hours after the US's credit rating was downgraded. Trump wanted a distraction and the usual suspects in the press are happy to oblige.

"One trading partner is proving itself to be unreliable, and it's us" --

 

Business strategy in the Trump era: Don’t invest, don’t expand, just wait. Because the only thing less predictable than a tariff… is the next one.

"So even after Trump’s “climbdown” we’re still looking at a shock to the economy 7 or 8 times as big as Smoot-Hawley, the previous poster child for destructive tariff policy." paulkrugman.substack.com/p/the-trade-...

The Comey kerfuffle in a nut - er, seashell --

 

Incase you missed it, the government is on high alert because Comey apparently trained seashells to create formations, photographed them, then published it. If he had just printed up some tee shirts, everything would have been cool.
