What a nightmare. By implementing the tariffs illegally, and now having to unwind them, the Trump administration created over $100 billion of profit for corporations selling foreign products, at the expense of American consumers.

Your refund: $0.00
Apple’s profit: $2.2 billion

Scoop: Trump DOJ to drop charges for alleged $722M crypto Ponzi schemer, just before trial.
BitClub mastermind said he'd built scam on backs of "idiots" & "sheep."
He hired Trump-connected lawyers to lobby DOJ HQ for relief, overruling NJ prosecutors. https://t.co/ainn5TQytu

Trump took $1 billion of your money and gave it to his family

@betr_media @OCOCReport Oh, maybe you missed this..

@betr_media @OCOCReport Just curious, if we have so much oil and it doesn’t matter, why did oil spike during the peak of the conflict? Why is Trump draining the reserves? Can’t wait for another witty and insightful response for another X genius.

[Michael @mgtalbott]

@betr_media @OCOCReport Responses like this are embarrassing.

[Steve Rattner @SteveRattner]

The Trumps aren’t just using their family name to make money.

Their companies have received almost a billion $$ in federal contracts – a shocking and unprecedented display of corruption.

I spoke to McConnell for about 20 minutes this morning.

He said we should end the war with Iran, quit giving aid to Israel, stop spying on Americans without a warrant, and he’s really sorry about how my primary turned out.

@RedWavePress How much chapstick did @JoeSquawk go through during this interview. The slurping was out of control. Wow

[Michael @mgtalbott]

@Bkclaims Strange take. He thinks public companies are over valued so he has almost all his money in private companies. Seems entirely consistent.

In 2026:

-20K will be a soft but not terrible jobs report

+15k will be a decent jobs report

+50K will be a good jobs report

+100K will be a great jobs report

[Michael @mgtalbott]

@EconBerger Weren’t you pretty pessimistic a few months ago? I thought I recall you suggesting that 0-50k jobs a month was the new normal. Is that correct?

The hiring rate was just 3.2% in April — hovering around its lowest level since 2013 (outside the 2020 shock).

The job market has frozen for many job seekers.

@TheChadWithrow Amazing how detached Clay has become from the typical American. Weird how a guy can make some cash then forget what it was like all the years before he got paid.

@StealthQE4 Midterms are going to be a bloodbath!

**Lindsey Graham has voted with Democrats more.**

Massie maintains one of the most consistently conservative voting records in the House (96% Heritage Action in recent cycles) and rarely cosponsors Democratic bills (only 8% in 118th Congress). His frequent "defections" are usually votes *against* GOP leadership on spending or procedural issues to take a harder conservative line—not siding with Dem majorities.

Graham has lower conservative scores (66% Heritage in 117th), higher rates of bipartisan cosponsorship (38% non-Republican bills), and a documented history of crossing over on issues like judges, immigration reform, and select spending measures.

@PeterSchiff @RepThomasMassie The MAGA brain has completely rotted. These clowns have done 180 turns on every important value that was original to their cause. I’ve never seen anything like it. They are now simply a strange cult led by a con man.

[Michael @mgtalbott]

@APompliano Such a low IQ take. Anthony with the deep insights. The MAGA brain is something else.
