Extortion and graft as the new global economy.

If Iran is clever they will be betting heavily as well, why trade in oil when you can win billions on the markets

TACO again after Iran called his bluff.
Indefinite ceasefire doesn't resolve the economic impacts of the Strait closure.
Trump maybe hoping that China or Russia will step in and make a deal that he can claim as a victory, because JD, Jared and Witkoff can't deliver.

Midweek Update #7: The Most Corrupt War In US History Trump Is Passing The Initiative To Iran; Oil Markets, Watch Out If They Lose Their Optimism

Hi all, just sent out free midweek update on USA-Iran. Normally bad superlatives are used about war--the worst, the most destructive, etc. These are rarely warranted. However in this case we have one superlative, we are witnessing the most corrupt war in US history. open.substack.com/pub/phillips...

Ossoff: US government is coin operated.

Which chicken shit House Dem said this off the record? Which one of you is too cowardly to add your name to this horrid statement? Speak up so we can primary your ass back to the stone age.

See above post.

Wishful thinking backed by a slippery slope is my only source of hope. That’s my only point.

Fingers crossed that the Democrats have the will to do the right things and make things right.

Darn.

Fingers crossed that the slope is slippery.

The new FBI

I've been laughing at this for two minutes. I'm definitely not OK.

Tout pour plaire (Wolinski, 1977, dans L'Humanité) ! l’heureux élu ressemble furieusement à Sammy Davis Jr…

I remember smog alerts in the late 80s and early 90s, when the skyline of downtown L.A. was often hidden by a thick, brown layer of smog. Then came tougher regulations and our air quality improved

HAHAHA! That response killed me. And it's so damn true.

Democrats won the redistricting fight in Virginia. Was Trump’s gerrymandering war all for nothing? The Democratic counteroffensive to GOP efforts to redraw maps sets the stage for Republicans to lose in the midterms

The GOP gerrymandering gamble is looking to be a bust — or at best a draw — for the president, after Democrats fought back with their own redistricting efforts

This is loser behavior.

Can’t think cuz can’t stop laughing.

Rand Paul begging us to believe Trump doesn’t like loss of life. Proving once again that the Republicans that bred this curly fucker think we are idiots and can be convinced that our eyes and ears are lying liars.

My sourdough English muffins came out quite well.

They are softer and tastier than store-bought ones and made with just a few ingredients.
