Trump Is Rotting Our Brains and Nobody's Talking About the Real Credit Crisis YouTube video by UNFTR Media

Trump is killing our collective brain cells. Also, there's an aspect to the private credit crisis that financial pundits are missing. Flowers for @brittanyepage.bsky.social, KA$H Money Patel stays but Chavez-DeRemer is booted. Headlines, pod and book recs & some silliness.

Testing finds toxic metals where Tesla discharges wastewater The drainage district that commissioned the testing has sent a cease-and-desist letter to the company, which says it is in compliance with all requirements for its state wastewater discharge permit.

I’m shocked. www.texastribune.org/2026/04/21/t...

The interesting thing about the current dynamic is that Trump said he would extend the ceasefire indefinitely, and Iran’s response was basically “fuck you, we’re winning”

They also threatened retaliation for any more vessels seized… which we just did.

I’m glad that the Mad King isn’t going to commit war crimes right now, while once again it is obvious this bumbling fool has no idea what he’s doing.

🚨 Talks with Iran have collapsed before they even began.

Iran refuses to negotiate under a U.S. naval blockade and threats, and Trump says he expects bombing to resume once the ceasefire ends.

Iran is warning it will retaliate if attacked—and planned talks in Pakistan appear dead.

Trump pardons allies who boost his crypto coin.

Trump invests in corporations that he's supposed to be regulating.

Trump cuts deals with autocrats to advance his family's real estate business.

The list goes on.

We must not become numb to this corruption.

Fractures Emerge Between GOP’s Pro-Pedophilia, Extremely Pro-Pedophilia Wings

If not for Trump, what's the emoluments clause for? What's impeachment for? What's the 25th Amendment for? What's section 3 of the 14th Amendment for? What are checks and balances for?

The baddies are cherrypicking the Constitution the same way they do the bible: for their own benefit.

Vance’s Trip to Islamabad on Hold as U.S. Says Iran Failed to Respond to Its Terms

The Vance Embarrassment Tour continues. So weird that Iran is unwilling to sit down with a country that started wholesale bombing them the last time they sat down together. www.nytimes.com/2026/04/21/u...
