One year ago today, Trump signed his and Republicans’ big, ugly bill.
Since then, millions have lost healthcare and food stamps — but the super-rich and corporations are doing better than ever.
BREAKING: CNN just aired a devastating montage of all the times that Donald Trump accused others of using their public office to make money. Donald Trump's net worth has almost tripled since he took office. Everything he accuses others of is an open admission.
George Washington’s farewell party bar tab still survives. With just 55 guests, they consumed 54 bottles of Madeira, 60 bottles of claret, 8 bottles of whiskey, 22 bottles of porter, 8 bottles of hard cider, 12 bottles of beer, and 7 bowls of alcoholic punch.
In September 1787, just days before the U.S. Constitution was signed, George Washington attended a farewell dinner at Philadelphia’s City Tavern with fellow Constitutional Convention delegates and members of the First Troop Philadelphia City Cavalry (then known as the Light Horse of Philadelphia). More than a tavern, City Tavern served as one of Revolutionary America’s leading centers for politics, business, and public life, where influential figures gathered to debate ideas, conduct business, and exchange news.
The surviving receipt has become famous because it offers a rare snapshot of 18th-century drinking culture. Madeira, prized for surviving long Atlantic voyages, was a favorite among wealthy Americans, while claret, porter, cider, beer, whiskey, and punch were all staples of social gatherings. The dinner marked a pivotal moment in American history, coming just before the Constitution was signed and the nation’s new government began to take shape.
Washington himself later became one of the country’s largest whiskey producers. At his Mount Vernon distillery, nearly 11,000 gallons of whiskey were produced in 1799, making it one of the largest commercial distilleries in early America.
@Wolf_Den_hunter@charliebilello@barnes_law I agree it could be overlooked for 1 month but not 3 months or more. People know the debts they have so when the deductions aren't being deducted, and you balance your checkbook and have more money in the bank than you usually do, it's noticed.
@LangrenTarcysiu@charliebilello I forgot you can't ask Grok unless you're a "premium" member, so, I right clicked the image and used Google image search and asked Google Ai if bank stocks would plummet if 13% of credit card debts were 90 days late.
Here is the answer...
@BuildingMattX@GinCherryJuice@charliebilello@grok It was MANY months ago, so, I don't recall what it was even about but I do remember it being an important part of the answer. And Grok confirmed that Google Ai is programmed to give more information and that Google was correct in the answer it gave.
@LangrenTarcysiu@charliebilello It shows at the bottom of the graph where the information is from, so, no one is just pulling the numbers out of thin air.
Also, you can always ask Grok or Google Ai any questions you have.
@GinCherryJuice@BuildingMattX@charliebilello@grok Grok can be misleading.
A while ago Groks answer wasn't correct b/c it left out pertinent info, so I asked Google Ai the same question and it gave a thorough answer w/the missing info.
I asked Grok why and it said b/c Google is programed to give more detailed info than Grok is.
13.1% of credit card balances in the US are now 90+ days delinquent, the highest since 2011.

@Shootingbogey@GregSchnack65@AlecLace@yesnicksearcy ALL 34 felonies are on Trump's criminal record as CONVICTIONS and the verdict was unanimous on each count.
Trump's team was satisfied w/the jury picks, so stop whining.🙄
So far things aren't leaning in Trump's favor, so, they likely will NOT be overturned, but we shall see.
The hit movie “Project Hail Mary” has fans craving the cozy cardigan emblazoned with foxes that star Ryan Gosling wears. But there’s a snag to obtaining this sweater. If you want one, you have to knit it yourself. 🧶 https://t.co/85OXHQZme6
@WSJ@Harry_Styles famous sweater wasn't available for sale either so people got crafty and did it themselves.
Some bought the pattern, others designed their own.
I foresee MANY doing the same in this case as well b/c fans want what they want, and they want @RyanGosling ... sweater!🥰
