Some people can buy what they want and need — but it's not us. Time to nip this sort of thing completely out of the picture with the orange dunce grabbing the money.

Looks stunned — like he doesn't know where he is and he just might not.
BREAKING: Greenland sends a resounding “F U” to Donald Trump with their election by strongly supporting leaders who champion the island’s national sovereignty amidst talk of land grabs.
The people have spoken and MAGA is furious…
Greenland’s center-right Demokraatit party won nearly 30% of the vote — a powerful mandate for a party whose leaders have vocally opposed Trump’s threats to take over the island.
Naleraq — the party that most strongly supports independence for Greenland — came in second place with a respectable 25% of the vote.
In third place with 21% was the incumbent democratic socialist Inuit Ataqatigiit party led by Prime Minister Múte Bourup Egede, who has himself voiced strong opposition to Trump’s scheme to take over the island.
All three parties support independence for Greenland, which is currently a semiautonomous territory of Denmark, and none of them support annexation by the United States.
Clearly, Trump is barking up the wrong tree. The sooner he abandons his delusions of empire, the sooner we can move on from this embarrassing charade.

How many ways can you spell traitor — and how long do we have to put up with this. I hope and pray a whole bunch of people are getting gravely nervous.

BREAKING: J.P. Morgan’s chief economist warns that there is now a staggering 40% chance of a full-blown recession thanks to Donald Trump — as well as a profound risk to the country’s status as an investment destination.
This is a five-alarm fire for the economy…
"Where we stand now is with a heightened concern about the U.S. economy," said Bruce Kasman, the bank's top global economist.
He had previously pegged the recession odds at 30% at the start of the year, but Trump’s disastrous tariffs and unpredictable behavior have thrown the markets into chaos.
Kasman warned that the recession risk could hit 50% or higher if Trump implements the reciprocal tariffs that he’s floated.
"If we would continue down this road of what would be more disruptive, business-unfriendly policies, I think the risks on that recession front would go up," Kasman said.
He predicted that investors could lose faith in U.S. assets due to Trump’s unpredictable — and at times utterly inscrutable — governance style. Such trust takes decades to build and might never return if lost.
"The U.S. seems to have established itself as a place where people can be comfortable about rule of law ... comfortable about the integrity of information flow, and they can be comfortable that the government isn't going to be, in unexpected ways, getting involved in the rules of the game," said Kasman.
"The term which has been in place for a very long time is that we have 'exorbitant privilege'. That we end up paying a much lower cost for financing our deficits and debt, we have much greater capital flows and attractiveness of the dollar and assets, because of these things," he added.
"The risk that that stuff starts to come under pressure and becomes a structural issue in the markets is not something I would, by any means, underplay,” said Kasman.
Economists at Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley have downgraded their forecasts for U.S. GDP growth to 1.7% and 1.5% respectfully.
On top of that, 95% of economists polled by Reuterslast in Canada, Mexico, and the United States said that recession risks in their domestic economies have spiked due to Trump’s tariffs.
Trump supporters thought that they were voting for a new “Golden Age.” Instead, they might end up with one of the worst economic collapses in American history.

My goodness what a negative thread. I popped in to see what this thread was about.
I'm sure glad I don't believe everything I see or hear online. And now with AI yikes!
We really don't know what we don't know. What is the truth?

This is a political thread Gail and right now the government we have is in a very negative place with tariff wars (totally un-necessary) and other aspects like the economy is going someplace in a handbasket. So, if you don't lean left this likely would not be at all to your liking.
There was in fact another thread that was for rt. leaning people, but they had several issues and time outs and chose to go elsewhere due I presume mostly to misbehaviors.
We mainly post memes and some articles here and occasionally will share a few of our personal thoughts and ideas. A few of us (like myself) have mainly given up tv and other sites since mostly rt win billionaires have purchased the new services, but we have a few left sites that we feel are highly trustworthy and give us far less slanted news.
So you are right — this is a negative thread but all of us here have bonded together over feeling our government is very highly negative and we are each other's relief valves. So that is pretty much what you will find here — nothing more, nothing less. If you don't lean left, then I'm sure you won't be happy here because if you bother to go back and look ( there is a lot of quite humorous material) this is how things always run. We are a very happy, well adjusted and satisfied little group and are grateful we were given/allowed this very place to find each other and share/vent together.

gailmary,
In addition to what illinoislady wrote, the perception of negativity is grounded in the sad reality that our federal government has become. We are watching our democracy slip away so there’s really not much of a positive way to look at it.
If this is not your cup of tea, just scroll on by.

Gailmary, it is negative because we are so very concerned about direction of the country we love. It's a good place for us to connect & vent too. If it's not your cup of tea, scroll around. There are lots of other topics that you might enjoy (the Fun & Games one is good for some lighthearted distraction.)

The more authentic you become, the more genuine in your expression, particularly regarding personal experiences and even self-doubts, the more people can relate to your expression and the safer it makes them feel to express themselves. That expression in turn feeds back on the other person's spirit, and genuine creative empathy takes place, producing new insights and learnings.

Ruth — great entries. Both. I do think T. Walz is right. The Reps. don't want to do in person town halls because they are getting a lot of angry questions and complaints on what Trump and Musk are up to and well they should. Many of them are facing lay-off or have already been or have close family it has happened to.
So Congresspeople may want to avoid (pretend) there isn't very much of an issue — so they themselves don't have to address higher up, but the sooner everyone gets squarely on the same page, the better. Sounds like Walz is going to keep it way closer to front and center.
So too, RFK, Sr. He and his brother were such a loss to us. It is hard to imagine how things might have been, but we do not need to go back to the wild West here. Well defined (and carried out in the same manner) laws and standards won't hurt anyone and keep things a lot more orderly in a place as large as the U.S.

Look in the dictionary under bloviated, fatuous, POS and his photo should be there. Still doesn't get it that when you lie, you have to keep lying when you are called out and then you may have difficulty remembering what your original lie was all about. I have no time I wish to waste on him. If his lips are moving, he's lying.
I do like the faces hs makes when he is pissed off that are caught by others to publish. He's not mr. nice guy and I think we all saw that in action when he went after Zelenskyy. There is never the "art of the deal" with him; it's bullying and intimidation only, so let's call it what it is. Donny Diaper in action.

I just read an article on Trump laying waste to his best asset. That would be the economy. His first time out amazingly (and possibly because Pres. Obama had 8 yrs. to define and refine the economy) it stayed in really good shape — but Trump blew all that with his completely horrid handling of Covid.
By the time Pres. Biden came along he not only had to fix Covid (not an easy task at all) as well as get the economy straightened out again (which was a real time taker) and that side managed to convince people that Pres. Biden economic policies were not workable — though of course they were indeed fine.
But here is Trump now after promising prices spiraling down — on his first day even and not only have they not done that but everything he has done has made pricing worse and now the tariffs to really jerk the chain hard. I'm not sure who designed this plan for him, but it is definitely a loser for Trump. Someone is perhaps getting whatever it is they want, but Trump is clueless and seems to have no idea that he is laying the bricks for his own personal sidewalk to disaster.
He seems to not quite get that the stock market is in such shape that Wall St. has given up on him and even Fox. He hasn't indicated in any way that it fazes him at all that he is torching his one decent (so to speak) attribute or cares one bit.

When you leave the unpopulated areas blank instead of letting land speak for the land owners, the voting map looks a lot different. Dot-density and proportional circle maps give each individual voter the same space, and the far-flung red voters aren't nearly so overrepresented as when it's shown by district.

This obviously is an older picture, but I loved it when I saw it for first time, and I would imagine the frown would be even deeper now.
