RT @Sestr1chk1na: Just a week ago russia killed 9 Ukrainian children in Kryvyi Rih. This is indeed beyond disgusting.

The capitulation of the law firms, like the prior collapse of Republican elected officials, is a lesson in the rot that's hollowed out so many of the pillars of our establishment beneath a nice and presentable surface.

"The dollar is also falling, meaning that foreign investors are getting out of America. They are leaving the stock market, selling treasuries, and even getting rid of dollars. Why? Because they no longer think America is a safe economic environment." https://t.co/4o8Ox5jhqU

"You know what can’t be bullied, deceived, or manipulated? The bond market. The bond market does not believe the danger is past. The bond market is not like any of the other institutions Trump has conquered, co-opted, or corrupted." https://t.co/4o8Ox5jhqU

RT @olddog100ua: While Russia ramps up chemical attacks, missile strikes, and civilian targeting in Ukraine, Trump’s envoy is in Moscow coz…

"A friend who understands these matters said last night we’ll be lucky to get out of this with a normal recession, as opposed to a real international economic crisis. As Rodda said, 'This goes beyond pricing in a growth slowdown and trade uncertainty.'” https://t.co/jCdakoOfNZ

"Consumer sentiment plunged 11% this month to a preliminary reading of 50.8, the U. of Michigan said in its latest survey, the second-lowest reading on records going back to 1952. April’s reading was lower than anything seen during the Great Recession." https://t.co/PXpjPcGP4w

What Sen. Dave McCormick (R-PA) says on the effectiveness of Trump's tariffs: “I think the honest answer is, it’s just too early to tell." What McCormick means: "A total disaster. I don't have the nerve to break with Trump now. But in the future...?" https://t.co/oGsBXlhrHc

"More than twice as many manufacturing workers say tariffs would hurt rather than help their job and career, 57% vs. 22%." And while a majority of these workers backed Trump in 2024, fewer than half of these Trump voters think tariffs will help them. https://t.co/Moom6LTh1U

"Wednesday’s equities rally was short-lived, the slide in the dollar continues, and the flight from U.S. treasuries shows no signs of abating...We’ll be lucky to get out of this with a normal recession, as opposed to a real international economic crisis." https://t.co/jCdakoOfNZ

"Trump’s 'Liberation Day' could prove an inflection point when some Republican elected officials, and some Republican voters, liberate themselves from Donald Trump. It’s unfortunate we’ll all have to pay a steep price for getting to that moment." https://t.co/jCdakoOfNZ

It's really striking how when people go MAGA, they get oddly fascinated by Hitler.

Did Hitler die in Germany or Argentina?

“This administration is delivering real, negative consequences…It’s Democrats’ job to make sure they know who’s responsible. Trump might have bought some time. Or he may have further undermined voters’ confidence that he has any idea what he’s doing.” https://t.co/mR8ZhKfMxP

“Trump destroyed 80 years of that work over the last week. America is now a risky place to do business. A place where the rules change from day to day. Where no business can trust in its plans…This is going to create real-world economic hardship.” https://t.co/nvgSWRos3w
