We have, by far, the biggest, most expensive military in the world not to mention enough nukes to eradicate the entire world population dozens of times over, but we're supposed to believe we're also so feeble we were at risk of attack by a military a fraction of our size. Complete and utter bullshit

Rarely do you get such a clear cause and effect between a President's decision and an economic consequence, but here we are.

Too bad the media refuses to cover the economy - with its raft of bad data points - the same way they did when Biden was president.

As more people get sticker shock at the gas pump (not to mention the grocery store) as this settles into some murky war of attrition with no end game in sight, and the global economy starts wobbling, these numbers will get even worse.

Obama not wearing a tie into the Oval Office was a days long scandal. Trump wearing a fucking baseball hat while dead US soldiers were taken off a plane at Dover AFB and it's crickets.

The media often treats Trump like some sort of Zelig-like character, a mere bystander in his own administration w/no agency or ability to shape decisions. It's really infuriating considering Biden and Obama were both expected to own everything going on in the country all the time.

Trump is intentionally making your life more expensive. Where are the journalists who staked out grocery store parking lots when Biden was President to ask Americans about the high cost of food (which he had nothing to do with!) now?

I ask again, did ANYONE in the upper echelon of our national security, military, or diplomatic corps give ANY thought to what would happen if we attacked Iran?

Without Trump, Stewart is irrelevant. It's why the first thing Stewart did when he returned to TV was shit all over Joe Biden. His whole shtick is outdated, out of touch with reality, and, at this point, nothing more than narcissism.

Inflation, you know that thing the media made THE defining issue of the 2024 race, was continuing its downward trend right up until the launch of Trump's "liberation day" tariff war and it's been climbing steadily since to crickets in the media.

If you're wondering how the "mainstream" press covered Trump's State of the Union, it was indistinguishable from a GOP press release.

Nothing to be alarmed about folks, just the Pentagon strong-arming some AI company into helping the military engage in "mass domestic surveillance." Totally normal stuff in a functioning democracy 🙃

Trump's casual misogyny toward the US Women's Hockey team is dismissed as "social media noise"

Tech companies are helping DHS infringe on your First Amendment rights 🙃

In 2000 and 2016, a small, but dispositive group of voters who claimed to care about the environment tipped those elections by voting third party b/c they firmly believed there was no difference between Democrats and Republicans 🤡

The entire 2016 campaign was defined by the media's outrage over Hillary's use of a private email server. In 2026, a high ranking government official's use of an encrypted app to avoid scrutiny as he sends ICE goons around the nation is a one day story. YOUR MAINSTREAM MEDIA 🙃

If he talks like a Nazi and he dresses like a Nazi ...

Absolutely INSANE framing by Bloomberg. Disgraceful stuff. Like, a goon squad has been sent into multiple cities in the country, terrorized and killed *our own citizens* but the real problem is all this Gestapo-like behavior is taking away from Trump's economic messaging.

There are A LOT of reporters lining up to help Trump wash his hands of Pretti's murder by pinning all this on Bovino, Noem, etc. Shameless stuff considering this was not an isolated incident but rather just another in a long list of illegal acts that have taken place under Trump

Literally white washing history. Americans can't be trusted to know that their founding fathers were also slave holders, especially when they visit the city where the Declaration of Independence and Constitution were drafted. Distinct lack of media outrage over this 🙄

Steady pattern of the Trump DOJ accusing people of being high ranking gang members only to backtrack when they have to actually provide evidence in court. Like going from saying someone is a Mob boss to saying that same person really really likes The Godfather🙃

Not ONE armchair doctor in the media who diagnosed Biden with everything from Parkinson's to Alzheimer's has anything to say about this. Not one.

More than 10 years into this dystopian nightmare and the Paper of Record is still using limp euphemisms like "falsehoods"🙃

We're becoming a global pariah with a nuclear arsenal.

Things going well at the other place ... 🙃

Why are they so bad at this?

What's that old saying, "history doesn't repeat itself, but it sure does rhyme" 🙃

Maggie Haberman: LOOK AT ME, I'M IN THE OVAL OFFICE WITH THE PRESIDENT!
Bari Weiss: HOLD MY BEER!

The Republican Congress spent almost two years and issued a nearly 3,000 page report on Bill Clinton's pardon of Marc Rich. What Trump is doing is orders or magnitude sketchier and not one of these pardons lasts longer than a day in the news cycle & Congress is silent🙃

Nothing to see here folks, just a sitting president investing in two companies whose merger he claims sole authority to approve or reject. Totally normal! 🙃
