In the future, everyone will have a cryptocurrency named after themselves.

@BulwarkOnline Coming soon. The White House graphics department prepares a posterboard comparing the length of the reflecting pool slit to the height of some famous buildings.

@MeidasTouch “It’s only 20% of the world’s oil.” Sure, Jan. No big deal.

[Dave Abernethy @d_abernethy]

@TheHoleTweet @HQNewsNow Are these private contributions to the ballroom tax deductible?

[Dave Abernethy @d_abernethy]

@Acyn @MeidasTouch I’ll never be able to see a photo or video of Karl Rove without thinking about this.

@GasBuddyGuy He says gasoline is $4 because “we aren’t producing enough of our own natural gas…” Is he recognizing that there is a limited and indirect relationship between the supply of natural gas and price of gasoline ? Or, does he not know that gasoline and natural gas are not the same?

[Justin Wolfers @JustinWolfers]

The concerns I expressed about unanswered questions proved to be unfortunately prophetic.

This week gave us yet another example of the pattern of good news while markets are open, followed by the real news coming as soon as they're closed.

@StuffaboutMpls @hclib Was there also a car wash on the north side of W Lake St between Dupont and Emerson in the sixties?

@johnpavlovitz An appropriate sculpture partially blocking the entrance to his mausoleum. An open, upside-down umbrella, randomly shifting as if abandoned in the wind.

@DearMomRead @DeanBaker13 “4 Dementianal Thinking” would be a great title for a book, especially about his second term.

[Dave Abernethy @d_abernethy]

@KeithMalinak @wrdcsc Caladryl is like a fine wine…

@CorieWhalen With Trump, it’s always deflection. If there’s bad news, it must be because someone else did something stupid, illegal or unethical.

[Michael McFaul @McFaul]

While everyone has moved on, I remain deeply troubled by Trumps threat to wipe out an entire civilization. No American president has talked in such terms. No American president ever should.

[Dave Abernethy @d_abernethy]

@liberalpuppy @GuntherEagleman He’s a sycophant AND unqualified. That ensures he’ll be a finalist.

[Dave Abernethy @d_abernethy]

@atrupar @RadioFreeTom This is one of the most offensive statements he’s made and there are certainly plenty.

[Dave Abernethy @d_abernethy]

@RobertClark62 @Johnny_Joey That’s easily explained by MAGA faithful. Some MAGA think a strategy isn’t even needed because Trump just feels decisions in his bones. Other MAGA think Trump’s strategy is so complex, it’s not even recognized as a strategy. Many MAGA think both are true and not inconsistent.

[Dave Abernethy @d_abernethy]

@DeanBaker13 What a coincidence. We just added $1 trillion to the national debt in the first 5 months of this fiscal year. Is that why he’s pretending we have $1 trillion in petty cash?

[Dave Abernethy @d_abernethy]

@FT The bull wants help fixing the broken china in the shop.

[Dave Abernethy @d_abernethy]

@robertgraham The only reason he’s NOW mentioning a team effort is because he needs others to blame if the remaining“excursion” doesn’t go well. It’s beyond my understanding how people can’t see how despicable he is.

[MeidasTouch @MeidasTouch]

He is begging like a dog, one might say.

This war and Trump’s alienation of our allies may go down as among the greatest foreign policy failures of any presidency in history.

[Dave Abernethy @d_abernethy]

@josh_wingrove Yet again, President Trump doesn’t understand percentages. If Iran can send a drone, drop a mine or deliver a close range missile that impacts oil tanker traffic through the Strait of Hormuz, 100% of Iran’s military capability HAS NOT been destroyed!
