strong opinions on fruit

[Hunter Biden @HunterBiden]

I see your profile picture. That’s Johnny Cash. My hero too. Arrested seven times. Smuggled 668 amphetamines across the Mexican border in 1965. Took every drug there was and drank like I did. Cheated on his first wife. Slept with more woman than I ever did. Hit bottom in a cave in Tennessee in 1968 trying to crawl off and die. And then he got up. He got clean. He spent the rest of his life singing for prisoners and addicts and the people the country threw away because he knew he was one of them.

That was the whole point of the Man in Black. He wore it for the poor and the beaten down. He wore it for the prisoner who has long paid for his crime. He wore it for the ones who never heard a word of Jesus. He wore it for the addicted and the dying. He wore it as a standing witness that no one is past saving.

You picked his picture. You did not pick his message. Try listening to the words.

Every Democrat since Carter has decreased the deficit.

Every Republican since Eisenhower has increased the deficit.

I covered MS-13 for over a decade: its history, crimes, symbolism, cruelty, pacts with Salvadoran governments. I wrote a book about it. Never, ever, did any of the hundreds of sources I spoke to say anything that would allow us to believe Trump's strange interpretation of tattoos

[Daniel Goldman @danielsgoldman]

This is an absolute *must read* opinion from Judge Wilkinson on the Fourth Circuit - a very conservative judge - in the Abrego Garcia case.

"I became a Trump supporter because I couldn't buy access to the democrats" is definitely something I would expect someone to think in their head rather than say out loud.

[Geiger Capital @Geiger_Capital]

Let’s be clear…

Using this calculation is batshit insane.

[Ben Hunt @EpsilonTheory]

See thread below. It’s not a “discounted reciprocal tariff rate”. It’s a country’s US trade surplus divided by their US exports.

These clowns make Pete Hegseth look like Albert fucking Einstein.

It’s a complete fucking joke except the joke is on us.

[James Surowiecki @JamesSurowiecki]

Just figured out where these fake tariff rates come from. They didn't actually calculate tariff rates + non-tariff barriers, as they say they did. Instead, for every country, they just took our trade deficit with that country and divided it by the country's exports to us.

So we have a $17.9 billion trade deficit with Indonesia. Its exports to us are $28 billion. $17.9/$28 = 64%, which Trump claims is the tariff rate Indonesia charges us. What extraordinary nonsense this is.

[Cory Booker @CoryBooker]

Looks like the people looking for fraud are committing fraud.

Endless winning

[William B. Fuckley @opinonhaver]

really is stunning how this entire project depends on people being functionally innumerate. this is paying some maintenance company like 200 bucks a week to take care of the plants.

[Momentum Chaser @electricfutures]

After several delays, @DOGE has finally posted its purported savings. Why did it take so long to create a simple webpage with a 1000-row table? Who knows! Let's dig in.

Headline number: $55B saved. They list the savings per nixed contract. This should be easy to verify then.

Hi, I'm a strong independent conservative guy. I think the world's richest man is teaming up with a notoriously crooked real estate developer to destroy the government because they're both just really generous and want to help me out. also I love the cops, and my boss

Idiocracy was not supposed to be a documentary.

CBS interrupting with Iran/Israel conflict news then back to Masters coverage

[Brice Paterik @BricePaterik]

Nobody hates the Cowboys more than lifelong millennial Cowboys fans who’ve never experienced the joy of being good but have been hated on their entire lives.

[Mike Tyson @MikeTyson]

I don’t understand why people would want to get rid of pigeons. They don’t bother no one.

[m @mclaughlinmb3]

@therealguat I don’t disagree

[m @mclaughlinmb3]

@therealguat I googled “things to do in Springfield” and that was unquestionably the best option
