I'm not a commodities guy but I don't know how many more events like this the markets will be willing to overlook because Trump occasionally shouts, "nearly done!" at a reporter from his golf cart.
Facebook post by Nekima Levy Armstrong: "Friends, A Breaking News headline just appeared in the Star Tribune, claiming that the national Target boycott ended today. This is false. The writer of the story, Carson Hartzog, is fully aware that the Target boycott was launched in Minneapolis on February 1, 2025. I have spoken to her several times since then, yet she failed to reach out to me, Jaylani Hussein, or Monique Cullars Doty, the three founders of the national Target boycott for the story. Carson even used the photo from our press conference that includes my daughter, Assata Joy and Ms. Rosemary Nevils, an elder in our community, to try to add legitimacy to a bogus story. I am once again disgusted by the Star Tribune and their attempts to minimize and erase the voices of our community. The nationwide Target Boycott is not over, unless and until Target reverses its decision to rollback Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion, as we said from the beginning. “Pastor” Jamal Bryant does not speak for us or our community and has zero authority to end the nationwide boycott of Target, a company that is headquartered in Minneapolis. Please don’t believe the hype and these attempts to rescue Target from the effects of capitulating to the Trump Administration. Target rolled back DEI because of Donald Trump. They donated $1 million to the Trump/Vance inauguration committee. Target also allowed ICE to stage in its parking lots during Operation Metro Surge. The nationwide boycott of Target is successful and it will continue. Please continue to shop elsewhere."

I'm curious about the ethics of running with these stories that are obviously intended to affect the market (and bare little connection to on-the-ground reality).
I love that Trump's toadies are wearing comically large shoes because the boss bought them and they're too chickenshit to mention that he guessed the wrong size.
And you wonder why the sitting Dems are hated. They lose to a guy who bankrupted casinos. The House Always Wins unless the house is owned by Donald Trump.
And Hakeem and Schumer lose to him at the table every time.
Recently, Ta-Nehisi Coates said, “Well, they’re killing people in the streets. I don’t like to say I told you so, but I saw this coming years ago, and they said I was being too alarmist. But it’s consistent with what the United States is as a country.“
Yes, of course, we’ve done nothing to discourage this.
there is no such thing as a facially qualified trump administration appointee because the trump administration's project is facially disqualifying and i will keep saying it into the void to keep myself sane

"A former U.S. DOGE Service employee claimed he had access to two highly sensitive agency databases and planned to share the information with his private employer...an unprecedented breach of security protocols."
Ryan from The OC going hard on how crypto is a scam is the wildest silver lining in this timeline

I live in the state of California, he's my governor, I voted for him in 2018, and he's the worst piece of trash imaginable.
He hates the trans community, he's criminalized being homeless in a state where hardworking people are one missed paycheck from the street. He had Bannon on his podcast
Resellers. So annoying. Impossible for me to find decently priced cards for my kid.
NBC News poll Voters hold negative views of Al. In fact, the only topics less popular in the survey were the Democratic Party and Iran.
Truly a perfect news alert
a pillar of of Trump's "ratepayer protection pledge" was exactly this sort of incentive: tech companies buying good will via community investment. but like i wrote for @techpolicypress.bsky.social yesterday: it's increasingly not working.
Why isn’t Elizabeth Warren the Senate Minority Leader?
"If there's a kid with a stick who keeps hitting people, you take their stick away," she told the jury. "Money is their stick, so you take it away so they can't hurt people anymore."
One day the NYT's editors will read these stories again and be ashamed of themselves. Mamdani called the attack "heinous," "criminal," "reprehensible," "terrorism," and "the antithesis of who we are." The insinuation that he's conflicted about this is disgraceful. www.nytimes.com/2026/03/09/n...
Mamdani gets it right. You cannot call yourself a progressive and at the same time purposely stifle private housing development.
You cannot claim you are part of a welcoming blue city to those fleeing red states while saying “we’re full” because you made sure we didn’t build enough housing.
You’re probably right.
Literally over maybe tens of kids who might be participating in sports. Just let kids play with their friends!
Former Bills FB Reggie Gilliam is headed to the New England Patriots on a three-year deal as Mike Garafolo reported.
Bills lose a key special teams player and valuable member of the offense to last year's AFC East champs.
They made me sign up for an account to recycle used toner at Staples yesterday. I should have just walked out but the cashier was just doing his job.
Corporate rules are so asinine and never seem to take the customer experience in account.

“At some point, the family said, they lost Naqvi's location that was being shared from her phone. Relatives said federal agents continued to tell them that Naqvi was not in custody, despite her location previously showing her at the Broadview Immigration and Customs Enforcement facility.”

THREAD: I got laid off from NYMag/Vulture after 14 years. The family lost 75% of income + medical. Now mzs.press bookstore, once a side project. is do-or-die for Judith & I. I feel weird telling you this because others are doing much worse. But if you could like or share this, we'd be so grateful!
