We don't talk enough about how incredibly CORRUPT it is that trump pumps up stocks right after investing in them. Seriously, WTF?

If Biden did this, he'd have been impeached on the spot.

I will soon be introducing a bill to give the public a 50% ownership stake in the largest AI companies in America.

This would guarantee that the trillions created by AI are used to improve the lives of all of us — and block oligarch decisions that harm the American people.

🚨DEMOCRATS ARE BETTER AT GOVERNING:

Under JB Pritzker's leadership, Illinois passed its 8th consecutive balanced budget while keeping spending growth BELOW THE RATE OF INFLATION.

The budget invests in schools, housing, health care, and lowering costs for working families.

Meanwhile, Trump is focused on Wars, UFC fights at the White House, a new ballroom, military parades, and gold-covered renovations.

Pritzker is spending taxpayer money to help people.

Trump is blowing it for his own ego.

The two parties are not the same.

BREAKING: Trump gives a jaw-dropping response to Iran "completely blocking" the Strait of Hormuz and choking off the global economy: "I couldn’t care less."

And it gets so much worse...

“I really don’t care. I couldn’t care less,” Trump said in a phone interview with CNBC.

Earlier today, it was revealed that Iran has cut off all dialogue channels with the United States, scuttling negotiations because the ceasefire has been violated. In addition to Trump bombing Iranian facilities over the past few days, Israel has been conquering territory in Lebanon and killing civilians in Gaza. Iran will now totally close off the Strait of Hormuz, skyrocketing global oil prices.

“If [the negotiations are] over, they’re over. If they’re not, you know, I think they took too much time. Frankly, I thought they started to get very boring," Trump said.

In other words: Trump is too lazy and attention-deficient to actually do his job. He'd much rather spend his time screeching on Truth Social, posting AI slop, and watching montages of explosions on his iPad. He's exactly as dull-witted and easily distracted as his most worst critics claim.

Trump also said that he's "going to ask" Benjamin Netanyahu “what’s going on with Lebanon.”

"What's going on" is that Netanyahu has been using the ongoing conflict with Iran as a pretext to invade Lebanon, slaughter its people, and seize territory that Israel has long coveted. Either Trump is pretending not to know that — which is entirely possible since he prioritizes Israeli interests over American ones at every turn — or he just can't be bothered to pay attention to what's going on in the world, despite that being his entire job description. Probably both.

As for his admission that he doesn't care about negotiations breaking down and the Strait closing, it's stunning but perfectly in keeping with his past behavior. He confessed recently that he doesn't think about Americans' financial situations at all.

What does he care if we can't afford gas, groceries, or rent? He and his family have never been richer and every day their net worth increases.

Please ❤️ and share if you think that Donald Trump is the worst President that we've ever had!

[Ihtesham Ali @ihtesham2005]

An advertising executive in 1939 wrote a 48-page book explaining exactly how ideas are made. It's 5 steps. Almost everyone skips the one that actually does the work.

His name was James Webb Young, and he spent his career at one of the biggest ad agencies in America watching people wait around for inspiration to strike.

He thought that was insane. He believed producing an idea was a process you could learn, repeat, and control, the same way a factory produces cars. So he wrote down the exact method.

The whole thing rests on one claim that sounds too simple to be true.

An idea is nothing more than a new combination of old elements.

That's it.

You don't invent ideas out of nothing. You take things that already exist and connect them in a way nobody connected before. Which means the entire skill of being creative is just the skill of seeing relationships between things.

The more raw material you've stuffed into your head, the more combinations become possible.

He compared the mind to a kaleidoscope. Every turn shifts the same colored pieces into a new pattern. The more pieces inside, the more striking the patterns it can make.

You are not making new glass. You are rearranging what's already there.

Then he laid out the five steps.

Step one is gathering raw material.

Two kinds. Specific material about the exact problem in front of you, and general material about everything else under the sun. He said most people fail right here, because gathering is boring and they'd rather sit and hope inspiration shows up. He called it a chore people are constantly trying to dodge.

Step two is chewing on it.

You take the facts and turn them over in your mind, look at them from every angle, try to force pieces together. Partial ideas start showing up. So does exhaustion. You hit a wall where nothing fits and your brain feels completely used up. Most people read that wall as failure and quit.

It isn't failure. It's the signal for step three.

Step three is the one everyone rushes past.

You drop the problem completely. You walk away. You go do something that has nothing to do with the work, something that excites you. A movie, a walk, music, sleep. Young was dead serious about this. You make no direct effort at all. You hand the whole thing over to your unconscious mind and you leave it alone.

This feels like procrastination. It is the opposite. Your conscious mind has done all it can. Now a deeper part of your brain takes the pieces you fed it and keeps shuffling them while you are busy not thinking about it.

Step four is when the idea comes back.

Not while you're straining at your desk. It arrives in the shower, on a walk, the second you stop trying. That flash of insight only fires after you've released the pressure. Young watched it happen to himself again and again, and so has anyone who's ever solved a problem the moment they gave up on it.

James Clear built half his work on this idea. Brian Eno reaches for the same principle every time he gets stuck. The break is not a break from the work. The break is the work.

Step five is the part the dreamers abandon. You take the fragile new idea out into the real world and let it get criticized. You shape it, fix it, adapt it to actual conditions. Young said good ideas have a self-expanding quality. Show one to the right people and they instantly tell you how to make it better. Most idea people are too precious to listen. They lose the idea in the final stage because they won't let anyone touch it.

So the full loop is gather, chew, drop it, catch it, ship it.

The brutal part is how simple it sounds. Young warned that the formula is so easy to state that nobody believes it works, and so hard to follow that almost nobody actually does it. The believing is easy. The doing is the whole game.

Everyone wants the flash of insight in step four. Nobody wants to do the boring gathering in step one, and nobody trusts the empty waiting in step three.

But the idea was never going to come from staring harder.

It was going to come the moment you finally looked away.

🚨 A STUNNING CLAIM.

According to a legal analyst, DOJ never filed a single motion opposing Trump's lawsuit before negotiating a settlement.

Not one filing contesting the case.

Not one motion asking the court to reject the claims.

In a normal lawsuit involving the federal government, government lawyers typically defend the government's position in court.

Here, critics argue that never happened.

Instead, they say DOJ moved directly into negotiations.

#BREAKING: Legendary #Maddow: “Hey, remember this little guy? His name is Greg Bovino. He led Donald Trump’s chaotic, violent, inept paramilitary invasions of multiple U.S. cities until he was fired a couple of months ago. Mr Bovino has been spending his retirement lamenting that he was not able to achieve his personal dream of deporting nearly A THIRD of the U.S. population. He’s also posted photos like this one on social media [Hitler salute]. He posted that photo just before jetting off to a White supremacist conference in Portugal this weekend. He was the special guest at a gathering of European far far far right politicians and activists who advocate for making Europe more White.”😳

[Give A Shit About Nature @giveashitnature]

The reason we think dandelions are weeds is because of a 1950s marketing campaign.

Dandelions, native to Europe and Asia, were brought to North America in the 1600s by European colonists who grew them deliberately.

Every part is edible. The leaves are a salad green, the flowers were made into wine, and the roots were roasted as a coffee substitute and used medicinally for liver and kidney conditions for thousands of years. They were a kitchen-garden staple well into the 1800s.

The shift happened after World War II, when 2,4-D (originally developed for chemical warfare research) was approved as a residential herbicide. Companies like Scotts built the modern lawn-care industry around the idea that a perfect green lawn meant zero broadleaf plants.

Dandelions, being bright yellow and resistant to mowing, became a visible enemy, and the campaign worked. By the 1970s, "dandelion-free" was synonymous with "well-kept."

They aren't native, but they aren't doing significant ecological harm either. The herbicides used to kill them, on the other hand, kill bees, contaminate groundwater, and have been linked to non-Hodgkin lymphoma in humans.

If you hate dandelions, it's most likely due to a marketing campaign that ran before you were born.

Jimmy Kimmel: We have the right guaranteed by the Constitution to criticize and satirize our leaders. This is a right that I took for granted until last year when the FCC delivered a very unpleasant surprise. But then I watched as millions of people objected because they refuse to allow our freedoms to be bulldozed like the East Wing of the White House. We will not stand by when comedy and journalism are censored and criminalized.

[Ed Krassenstein @EdKrassen]

U.S. Senator @ChrisMurphyCT says Trump has "no plan to end the war."

"I mean, they have no plan to end the war because they basically made a bet at the beginning of the war. Netanyahu and a handful of Iran hawks convinced them that if they bombed Iran for a couple of days, the regime would fall and some pro-America, pro-Israel regime would take its place. That's what they thought was going to happen. And when that didn't happen, they literally had no plan B. And so that's why they are fumbling."
