Welcome, America, to the surreal and dangerous sideshow of Donald Trump’s second presidential term. Forget draining the swamp; Trump and his GOP sycophants in Congress, the courts, and the executive branch have transformed Washington into a Kremlin carnival—where Russian interests are sold as American greatness, and reality itself is twisted into an unrecognizable mess. Let’s…
Trump’s Great GDP Illusion: Cooking America’s Economic Books The day Donald Trump strode confidently towards the Capitol to deliver his State of the Union, headlines were already screaming trouble. “Atlanta Fed Shock Sounds Trumpcession Warning,” shouted one, referencing the Federal Reserve Bank of Atlanta’s grim forecast—America’s GDP shrinking at a jaw-dropping annual rate of minus…
Let’s dive straight into the Trump Tariff circus—Donald Trump’s economic policy equivalent of juggling chainsaws blindfolded and expecting applause when limbs start flying. Just over 24 hours ago, Trump swaggered through a joint address, proclaiming, “Tariffs—it’s a beautiful word, isn’t it?” Beautiful in the same way that “root canal” or “flat tire” might be poetic…
Folks, Elon Musk just detonated another rocket over America—and yes, the debris shower was as predictably chaotic as Musk himself. Tonight, SpaceX’s latest Starship test rocket, allegedly designed to whisk humanity off to Mars someday (presumably when Earth becomes entirely uninhabitable from Musk-induced chaos), exploded spectacularly shortly after liftoff around 6:30 p.m. Eastern from southern…
Let’s cut through the chaos right away—cryptocurrency is essentially the Beanie Baby craze of our times, just without the comforting plush fabric. Like those overpriced stuffed animals from the ’90s, crypto inherently holds no intrinsic value. Its worth depends entirely on the next person’s belief in its future resale potential. The crypto market is a…
The lights dim, the cameras roll, and here we go—another descent into the chaotic void of political theater where the ringmaster, Donald J. Trump, takes the stage and delivers a speech so bloated with lies it should be classified as hazardous waste. Ninety-nine minutes of verbal sewage pumped directly into the bloodstream of America, a…
What was supposed to be a crucial diplomatic meeting between U.S. President Donald Trump, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, and Vice President J.D. Vance instead turned into a chaotic, embarrassing display of American leadership at its most incompetent. If there were any doubts that Trump fundamentally misunderstands global threats, today’s meeting erased them. The Warning Zelensky…
Trump’s Tax Cuts: A Giveaway to the Rich, a Trap for Everyone Else Donald Trump’s 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (TCJA) was hyped as a breakthrough for working Americans, but in reality, it served as a massive cash funnel to the wealthiest individuals and corporations. The middle class got a mirage of relief—small, temporary…
Trump’s Tax Cuts: A Windfall for the Wealthy, a Time Bomb for the Deficit In 2017, Donald Trump and the Republican-led Congress passed the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (TCJA), a move heralded as a major victory for supply-side economics. The reality? A jackpot for corporations and the top 1%, while middle-class benefits were meager…
Over the past 15 years, we’ve seen two competing visions for the economy play out: one that prioritizes workers, families, and the vulnerable, and another that caters to the ultra-wealthy and corporate power. Obama and Biden took a middle-out approach—investing in workers, strengthening labor protections, expanding healthcare, and ensuring economic growth benefited more than just…
