Microsoft: $101 BILLION in profits. $12.5 BILLION in tax breaks. $176 BILLION in stock buybacks. 4,800 workers fired this week. 9,000 workers fired last year. Please don't tell me trickle-down economics works. It never did. Nothing trickles down.

There's a chunk of right-wing media desperate for a "quieter" immigration strategy (see the disappearance of "mass deportation" language on Fox www.mediamatters.org/fox-news/fox...) but also a bunch of extremely loud voices demanding deranged maximalist policies.
What triggered MAGA was Markwayne Mullin saying we should fix agricultural visas. The real transgression was Mullin admitting immigrants can help the economy, and that reform can *actually achieve this.* MAGA wants migration to be seen as fundamentally unmanagable. newrepublic.com/article/2138...

However horrible you think the Tate brothers are, I promise, it's worse than that. It's insane that Dems aren't making a bigger deal of the GOP embracing these grotesque monsters.
This is an incredible artifact of the decline of the president of the United States. Faced with OBJECTIVE REALITY—that even a large box of wine had to acknowledge—his delusions will not be denied. This is a deadly combination of malignant narcissism & frontotemporal dementia.

I wrote about why Donald Trump, Vladimir Putin, and Elon Musk might end up taking each other down. The question is whether they willl succeed in taking the rest of us with them. www.mind-war.com/p/dead-enders

Aaron Ruparthis Pirro press conference is completely beyond parody, like a deleted scene from Idiocracy. listen to this shit
Imagine the conservative media diarrhea storm if any Democrat said this about a red state
Aaron RuparTrump: "We heard in Minnesota there was a cyberattack and they blame it on Iran. I don't think so. I blame it on Minnesota because they're grossly incompetent. Iran's got bigger problems than worrying about Minnesota."
Ecuadorian prosecutor Alexandra Bravo was killed June 14. Bravo had been investigating U.S. strikes on three Ecuadorian boats in which 36 passengers survived, many of them recounting alleged torture by American gunmen in U.S. military uniforms aboard a U.S.-flagged patrol ship.
