It remains astonishing that Israel and its IDF—after all the slaughter and destruction, now morphing into forced desiccation and starvation—still pretend to be frightened rabbits ('pussies' some would call them) before the bogeyman of 'Hamas.'

How is possible the smartest people on earth, with billions upon US billions in money and weaponry pouring in, haven't yet put down a ragtag rebellion from a bunch of dirt poor fenced-in prisoners?

This seems tone deaf. Better to talk about the jobs lost, businesses bankrupted, hopes and dreams crushed.

"Sen Kirsten Gillibrand said: “Because of this #chaos, this #incompetence & this carelessness, he has wiped out trillions of dollars from the #US #economy.”

#Senate #Democrats just held a press conference on #Trump's #tariff announcement & his admin's policy.

Sen Kirsten Gillibrand said: “Because of this #chaos, this #incompetence & this carelessness, he has wiped out trillions of dollars from the #US #economy.”

Standing alongside her, Senate Minority Leader #ChuckSchumer said: “You can't undo the damage. The #TrumpSlump is upon us now, & whatever he will try to do in the future does not undo the damage.”

@mloxton And not only in the Trump regime, but these kinds of people - DOGE for example - are out there in the private sector in droves, telling themselves that they are efficient and competent, and super, and mostly the dismal reality of their skillset remains hidden. Now we can see their work product publicly, and what a load of codswallop, what a myth, that the private sector is smart, efficient, well run. #PrivateSector #PublicSector #Incompetence #USPol

"It was a bloodbath on Wall Street today, as Trump’s ‘Liberation Day’ tariffs are liberating people from their retirement savings and investments. The Dow was down 2,231 (5.50%), NASDAQ was down 962 (5.82%), and Tesla was down a whopping 27.85 (10.42%)."

"The sweeping package of tariffs unveiled by Donald Trump on Wednesday includes an exemption for the energy sector, which is a clear sign of the president’s fealty to his big oil donors over the American people, advocates say."
