I'm watching CNBC. These anchors are so angry. They really didn't believe he'd do it. They're actually just now, 10 years into this shit, realizing he's a maniac hellbent on revenge and there's no grand plan for the markets. Better late than never but holy shit.
To me, the penguins are a black-and-white issue.
Get on the penguins, Mr. King. You deserve some levity too.
My oven is a pretty standard thing but it has this feature called "rapid preheat" where it will run both the broil and the bake elements together until it's within 50° of your target. This feature is approximately 700X more useful and interesting than having it connected to the internet.
Any farmers out there that can speak to whether they can get info for planting season ? Or loans to help them get through this ? Are federal offices open to even process loan requests ?
all that money was woke, you see
I love having a small car so much…the world is full of parking spots no one else can park in.

i want nothing more than for jd vance to become a pariah whose name is a burden on him for the rest of his life.
JD Vance claims the Maryland father the Trump administration mistakenly deported to a slave prison in El Salvador wasn't "father of the year" bc he had "traffic violations," and says "we do not ask permission from far left Democrats before we deport illegal immigrants." (He's talking about judges)
I have a hard time with the way we let Bill Clinton still be a thing.

Trump voters feeling bitter ‘Cause the market’s in the shitter. See? I’m a poet and don’t know it. Although my feet show it. They’re *longfellows.* Just trying to keep folks amused while their 401Ks go down the drain. Trump is like honeybadger: He don’t give a shit.

Well, I mean, technically it *is* doing numbers.
Among the many other stupid things about today is that Trump's reported deal to save TikTok appears to let it keep running exactly as is without addressing the reasons Congress banned it in the first place www.platformer.news/trump-tariff...
Perhaps the deal will include some as-yet unannounced provisions to address the data issue; absent that, ByteDance would retain a 19.9 percent stake in the app, and would almost certainly continue to use Americans' data just as it does today.

More importantly, ByteDance's algorithms — which members of Congress spoke of in near-mystical terms, terrified that (among other things) it might promote the spread of pro-Palestinian videos — would continue to fuel TikTok just as they always have. There is no evidence the Chinese government has used TikTok to spread propaganda, but licensing the app's algorithm to TikTok America would give them an avenue to do so.

Mind you, I'm not even saying I found these arguments by members of Congress particularly persuasive. But this was their rationale for passing a law, and it now appears as if they are poised to pretend as if they never did.

Republicans are about to give more tax breaks to billionaires and pay for it by gutting child care for thousands of families. Today I'm introducing legislation with to invest in child care. Because Congress should be focused on helping families not billionaires.

This part of the Tufts declaration somehow warms my heart the most: a full-throated defense of Rümeysa Ötürk's op-ed criticizing the Tufts president, signed by the Tufts president! This is how it's supposed to be!
"The University declares that this opinion piece was not in violation of any Tufts policies. Further, no complaints were filed with the University or, to our knowledge, outside of the University about this op-ed."
5. The University can confirm that Ms. Oztürk was one of several authors of an opinion piece in the student newspaper, The Tufts Daily, published on March 26, 2024, entitled: "Try again, President Kumar: Renewing Calls for Tufts to Adopt March 4 TCU Senate resolutions." The University declares that this opinion piece was not in violation of any Tufts policies. Further, no complaints were filed with the University or, to our knowledge, outside of the University about this op-ed. The University maintains that the op-ed was consistent with speech permitted by the Declaration on Freedom of Expression adopted by our trustees on November 7, 2009. For the record, a search of The Tufts Daily will reveal op-eds on multiple sides of the issue with opinions that were shared just as strongly as the op-ed Ms. Öztürk co-authored. The University has no further information suggesting that she has acted in a manner that would constitute a violation of the University's understanding of the Immigration and Naturalization Act.
