According to new analysis from @budgetlab.bsky.social, Trump's plan to illegally index capital gains for inflation would be a massive giveaway to the rich, giving almost nothing to the bottom 80% of Americans while giving the top 0.1% a $350k annual tax break, EVEN MORE than what they got in OBBBA.
so to mitigate the oil costs of war with Iran we're lifting Russian oil sanctions while Putin gives Iran intel for missile strikes?
do i have that right?
Is there any real chance of a reaching a peace deal in a war where one side are irrational religious zealots operating under a repressive theocracy, and so are the other two.

The negotiations were led by two US oligarchs with massive financial conflicts of interest. Using American blood/treasure to build special corridors of power for the oligarchy reminded me of the likes of Epstein, Thiel, Bannon⦠men excited for money to be had in the shattering of global stability
If we examine the origins the the war on Iran, we get an inkling of a closed domain of international oligarchs, exploiting the stateβs power and patriotic sentiment, while creating a world order in which the American state is much weaker. An oligarchical corridor.

Once you deduct the healthcare sector, the jobs loss situation under Trump becomes far more grave.
Exclusive: Russia is providing Iran with targeting information to attack American forces in the Middle East, the first indication that another major U.S. adversary is participating β even indirectly β in the war.
Donald Trump has made $4 billion off the presidency.
His rich friends get $1 trillion in tax cuts.
Everyone else gets higher prices and job losses.
The Trump economy is a disaster.
National Geographic quality as usual, Carl, A+ incredible images
This feels out of control, insane, and illegal.
Lol to the jabronis tone policing people saying Hegseth never literally said this war in Iran was for Jesus, well here you go
Pete Hegseth is not "a former member of the press at Fox," as MS NOW just said.
Fox News is not journalism. It's anti-journalism. It makes people less informed than they were before.
Hegseth is a former fascist propagandist who has moved on to become a war criminal.
open borders is a slogan that sounds 100x more insane than even abolish the police. it is another idea painstakingly designed in an academic lab to be weaponized by people on the right against everyone left of Obama. it is therefore election annihilation fuel, paving the way for entrenched fascism.
Steve King 9 @SteveKinglA + Follow Wilders understands that culture and demographics are our destiny. We can't restore our civilization with somebody else's babies. ESTERN ILIZATION Voice of Europe @V_of_Europe Hundreds of Islamists shouting "Allahu Akbar" in Rotterdam, the Netherlands.

I'm teaching about early 20th century eugenics today and was reminded that 9 years ago Republican Representative Steve King was stripped of his committee assignments by his GOP colleagues for this post that simply states what is now bog standard GOP policy/rhetoric on immigration and "civilization."
He turns 80 this year and his health isnβt great so of course he genuinely does not care if anyone else in the world gets to keep living their lives. He just wants to feel important, the center of everything, for another day.

I can already see it now... the next Dem will be expected to draw this down, it will be a realistic drawdown instead of the fairytale version, their poll numbers will drop and the voters will decide to elect republican Foghorn Leghorn, who *promises* no new wars.
Primary.
Impeach and remove. Congressional Republicans have got to snap out of it and stop allowing this administration to fvcking start wars everywhere. These mofos want to burn the planet down.
Historian here history first time as tragedy the second time as farce.
I think Congress should still impeach Kristi Noem (technically you can still impeach a former official). Her "reign" at DHS was so egregious that the full truth of it should be exposed, and she should be held accountable for it.
wtf. that US attack has to be investigated. it sounds like it failed our militaryβs own rules
FT comments section this morning - saying what everyone else is thinking, right?
All I could think about reading the story was MarALagoβs pathetic βSCIFβ
