My sense is that Warsh would be bad, but Hassett would have been a complete disaster who would have done everything Trump wanted no matter how disastrous for the economy.

So the ceasefire is extended indefinitely and the Strait of Hormuz is still closed.

Her “I’m in danger” look was the thing I noticed when I first saw this video.

I don’t think that’s as much of a difference as Schwartz is claiming. Access journalism is a cancer.

I don’t think the Fed Chairman should be a liar with investments set up by Epstein who can’t clearly state who won the 2020 Presidential Election.

Warsh claimed that the Wall Street Journal had bad sources. Their source was Donald Trump himself. Either Trump lied to the Journal or Warsh just committed perjury.

Most of you have probably seen @atrupar.com’s tweet of Benny Johnson saying Somalians have IQs of 70.

What’s more interesting (and troubling) to me however, is this reply by Stephen Miller’s wife Katie about Richard Lynn. Because *that* s**t deserves a deeper dive.

So let's do that. /1

And there’s no good reason for him to do it. He’s retiring! You’re free…just tell the truth!

Chris Wright officially announcing that he will be dead in the next ten years.

Does Tillis really think he can’t get a lobbying job if he even mildly criticizes Trump directly?

Prosecutors couldn't get their hands around this case and it blew up in their faces.

I always thought it was one of the funniest posts ever and saved it for whenever the “could you beat a goose in a fight” polls were making the rounds.

darth™ @darth to reiterate u are not beating a goose in a fight that goose will fuck u up

“that goose will fuck u up”

as a wise red panda once said on the bird site…

“Fuck it we’ll do it reanimated”

Of course, Chavez-Deremer was also accused of drinking on the job (among other things), but it is notable that he’s only firing the women.

Funny how it’s only the women getting forced out of Trump’s cabinet.

Yeah, Paradise is just rural CA, not a product of sprawl. Tracy is a better example of sprawl. Same size as Paradise when CEQA passed, but now it has 100,000 people.

We’re currently in week 8.

“Dated” means oil for delivery in the next 10-30 days, while “prompt” is 2 months out.

We really should be talking more about the extent to which wealthy and powerful people are completely detached from basic reality. People like Elon have spent decades living in a fantasy world.

A world where he’s worth something like $150 million and doesn’t care what the cost of gas is. All of these people are fabulously wealthy and completely detached from the concerns of ordinary Americans.

I remember watching that in real time and posting about it on Twitter.

The media could stop buying into this BS if they wanted to, but apparently everyone has to pretend that we live inside Donald Trump’s fever dreams.

Trump lying about how eagerly Iran wanted a deal might have had an impact, but I suspect the shelf life on that is dying.

He’s saying this even though futures prices have completely decoupled from the price of physical oil.

At some point the physical barrels of oil and other commodities just aren’t there. The markets have just been betting that won’t happen.

@aubreygilleran.bsky.social I figured it out. It’s the pocket square post.
