Incredible. Scotland puts a wind turbine near Trump’s golf course in Aberdeen 20 years ago. He sues and loses. Then his resulting hatred of wind turbines now ends up with the US Secretaries of Defense & Interior fabricating absurd lies to justify killing wind energy in the US.
Fact: He traveled there for his cooking show & when they tried to block this one episode, he said he would pull his entire show from the network & this was the first time the world ever saw behind the walls in Gaza 2013
The Federal Reserve released data on Trump's tariffs.
They found that corporations passed tariff costs off to consumers almost entirely.
That raised inflation of core goods by 3.1%.
We won't get a penny of the refunds, though. The corporations will.
It's a tax scam.
In all seriousness though, this will (or at least should) go down as one of the biggest media failures in modern history.
The political media absolutely HOUNDED the previous president and made his age/health THE ONLY issue that mattered of his presidency.
And then they helped elect a guy who was just a few years younger (aka still old as shit) with a litany of unexplained health issues, a brain that is visibly detoriating and who brags about taking his dementia test 3x a week.
And then....they just haven't talked about it. At all. You can barely even get them to acknowledge it.
They alleged a big coverup of Biden's health, but they are literally complicit in covering up the current president, Donald Trump's health...which we can all see, right in front of our very eyes.
Just can't put into words how much of a disgrace the political media is...
Just realized if the Knicks win this chip they’re gonna refuse to visit Trump at the White House and go hang with Zohran at the Mayor’s mansion instead and it’s gonna make Dolan so mad
Gotta say capitalism is remarkably fucking resilient. This country is about to mint a trillionaire. There’s mass unemployment and the price of everything is sky high. Higher education is out of reach for all but the few while mass layoffs are happening everywhere. The entire stock market is a giant bubble of fake incestuous capital. And yet day to day life chugs along. It’s really mind bending.
What always appalled me about this country is how we have so much more empathy for powerful people who commit crimes out of greed than for poor people who commit crimes out of desperation.
