“Republicans are better on the economy”🤔

Since Reagan 🇺🇸 created 50 million jobs under Democratic presidents, 2 million under Republicans… median incomes, GDP rates, deficit reduction, Dow all better under Dems… https://t.co/YQnHO3vopO

Back to basics? What?

Yeah, let’s get soldiers to do more pushups instead of learning how to operate drones. Super smart. Drones don’t matter in warfare in 21st century.

Great explanation of the bond market and interest rates.

Just to wrap some context around my last post, this might help. I’m not sure which part of ‘out of control’ people are struggling with, but robbing Peter to pay Paul has never been a sound fiscal policy.

This is a classic case of, this will be someone else’s problem because we’ll be long gone when the tab becomes due’. Meanwhile the illusion continues as the Markets gain and bod yields drop. It is the definition of lunacy.

If this is fiscal conservatives at work, it’s time to redefine what it means. Anyone voting Republican in November is literally a Turkey voting for Thanksgiving. Trump is creating an economic dead man walking.

Thanks to Kyla Scranton for the explanation.

Secretary of Commerce Howard Lutnick is the latest contender to abuse his office to manufacture lies about the 2020 election.

Here is why his "report" that's being pushed by all the election deniers is junk data science.

From me.

Leaders in CA & Greyhound should be made aware that ICE is engaging in illegal boarding of Greyhound busses & interrogation of passengers (illegal bc they have no warrants).

Hey, it’s not as if she was in close proximity to the president, as he had top-secret and sensitive documents sitting on his desk, and probably sitting in to the Daily intelligence briefings. Oh, wait…

[Joyce Alene @JoyceWhiteVance]

She “declined?” “Declined”? You can’t just decline to get a security clearance. You either get one or you don’t have a job. So much dysfunction in this White House. When will the GOP have had enough? Why risk the country for this? https://t.co/X0unu3P0FX

@Mediaite If you take @SenOssoff's exact quote, take out Natalie Harp's name and insert @DanScavino, no one would claim he was "anti-man." MAGA is so easily triggered. Oh, and there's Bill's record of behavior toward women. #falafel

Does this mean your buddy Putin will be sanctioned for sending drone parts to Iran?

I would love to see it. Especially since you won’t sanction them for starting a war in Ukraine. Or maybe sanction your N Korea love mate for sending bombs & soldiers to fight for Russia in UKR

NOAA launches the weather balloons, floats the ocean buoys, flies the satellites, and staffs the forecasters that tell us when storms are coming. That data supports about two-thirds of the economy, roughly $1.3 trillion a year, and it paid us back $73 for every dollar we spent on it.

DOGE took a chainsaw to it anyway.

They cut 2,500 people.

They pushed out 27,000 years of experience in just a few months.

Now a charter fishing captain in Homer, Alaska has spent half a season with no idea what the wind is doing in waters he fishes every day. Kansas got hit by two tornadoes nobody saw coming. Forecasters missed how strong a typhoon was as it headed for Alaska. Farmers, insurers, airlines, and city engineers are all working with worse information than they had two years ago.

And now the Trump administration plan is to cut even deeper.

They want to pull another $1.6 billion out of NOAA next year. They want to hand the rest to private companies, so your town ends up paying a business for weather data your taxes already paid for, with no promise it will even be right.

Wrecking a 73-to-1 investment and sending the bill to fishermen, farmers, and families. Just crazy.

Elon's $1M voter "lottery" was a FRAUD! His lawyer ADMITTED winners were pre-selected. Judge just rejected his dismissal—trial coming! He LIED to millions for their data

Wisconsin just referred him for BRIBERY (5-1 vote)! He's buying elections. A con artist with a checkbook🔥⚖️

The Republican hypocrisy lead by @RepJamesComer @Jim_Jordan Republicans
didn’t feel it was none of their business how Hunter Biden worked in Ukraine for his money.
Yet Barron Trump is tied to his daddy foreign investment as far as we all can tell..

The Republican hypocrisy is astounding!

Prior to Steele Dossier there were other warnings about Trump and Russia.

Multiple allied countries did warn the U.S. about strange Russia contacts

This is documented, bipartisan, and confirmed by several intelligence agencies.

🌍 Who warned the U.S.?

Countries that raised red flags included:

• United Kingdom (GCHQ)
• Estonia
• Australia
• Germany
• France
• The Netherlands

These warnings came before the FBI opened its investigation in 2016.

📞 What were they warning about?

They reported:

• odd phone calls
• unusual communications
• strange contacts between Trump associates and Russian officials
• patterns that didn’t match normal diplomatic or business behavior

These weren’t “political opinions.”
They were intelligence alerts from countries that normally cooperate closely with the U.S.

Why the calls “didn’t sound right”

Allied agencies said the communications had characteristics of:

• covert influence attempts
• back‑channel messaging
• non‑official intermediaries
• people speaking in ways that suggested they were hiding the true purpose of the contact

In intelligence work, that’s exactly the kind of thing that triggers a “heads up.”

50,000 North Korean troops are on route to Russia to kill Ukrainians and President Trump extols the virtues of North Korea’s leader Kim Jong Un. Americans have one last chance to end this madness on November 3rd.
