Finance Folks: Is there a way I can go long on inflatable dinosaur costume manufacturers?


Trump is undefeated in his effort to turn every joyous or solemn occasion into disgusting grifts for his friends and/or attacks on his foes.

Trump to Israeli Knesset: "I have an idea -- Mr President, why don't give him a pardon? Give him a pardon. By the way, that was not in the speech as you probably know, but I happen to like this gentleman right over here and it just seems to make so much sense. Whether we like it…

On October 18th, millions of brave Americans will stand up and peacefully protest against the authoritarian disease metastasizing under Donald Trump. No Thrones. No Crowns. No Kings. @gtconway3d

Jeff’s letter, and the idiocy of his logic, only proved my point. If corporate America & billionaires want to prevent Democrats from being a serious governing party, there’s no better investment than Jeff, his org and his dead end thinking. wsj.com/opinion/why-no…

Corporate America’s mouthpieces claim the few limits on corporate influence we helped win during the Biden admin drove Big Business to board Trump’s tyrannical train. If so, how can Big Business ever be trustworthy participants in a democracy? Our @jeffhauser in the @WSJ:

He sounds nice

Before targeting Trump foes, Pulte practiced on his own family, per @BrianSlodysko @ChrisMegerian. He accused his grandfather’s widow of insider trading, was tied to a website trashing an aunt as a "fake Christian" and called another relative "a fat slob." apnews.com/article/trump-…



MTG as a hero of the resistance was as predictable as the a”circumcision to Tylenol to autism” axis.

MTG: I've been in the Capitol, and there are two things I couldn't find this week: I couldn't find anywhere the Epstein files, and I also couldn't find the Republican plan to fix the health insurance industry.



This is the most “what could possibly go wrong?” shit imaginable.

to put a finer point on it. I'm told the ACTING DIRECTOR and CHIEF MEDICAL OFFICER for the National Center for Immunization and Respiratory Diseases are now gone.

The @USTreasury has concluded 4 days of intensive meetings with Minister @LuisCaputoAR and his team in DC. We discussed Argentina’s strong economic fundamentals, including structural changes already underway that will generate significant dollar-denominated exports and foreign…



Remarkable that the guy using the awesome powers of the United States to prosecute his political foes, bring thuggish violence against blameless people, and mobilize military force in our cities based on lies somehow did not get the Nobel Peace Prize.


Winsome Earl-Sears is many things, but “the next governor of Virginia” is not one of them.

Winsome Earl-Sears is very strange. Republicans ran a lot of bizarre candidates just like her in 2022 and most were handily defeated in what should have been a strong cycle for Republicans.



"Circumcision causes autism because of Tylenol" is the weirdest MadLib in the history of presidential cabinet meetings

RFK Jr: Children who are circumcised early have double the rate of autism, and it's highly likely because they're given Tylenol. Trump: There's a tremendous amount of of proof or evidence. I would say as a non-doctor, but I've studied this a long time

It is possible to believe that the peace deal (if it comes together) would be very good and that Trump is very, VERY bad. Both things can be true.


Fact check: True

On @Morning_Joe, Joe Scarborough, commenting on yesterday’s oversight hearing & AG Bondi’s demeanor: “They want to shock us. We are not shocked. You look stupid as shit”



Lawler's Pam Bondi routine feels totally derivative, TBH.


In Trump 1.0, this would have been appalling but ultimately harmless bluster from the Toddler-in-Chief, destined to be ignored by the mostly minimally responsible adults running the federal government. In Trump 2.0, it's a command to his lackeys, and it's astoundingly dangerous.

Just a blistering (and completely fair!) takedown of the far left’s theory of how to win elections. A must-read.
