Doomloop

To take your mind off your shrinking 401K and worthless Trump meme coin you could go on a Trump Tour! Climb Mount Mc Kinley, go sailing in the Gulf of America. A way for American farmers to spend their government-provided cash payments (otherwise known as welfare) for the crops they won't be planting thanks to the tariffs. Enbridge Pipeline Company is now sponsoring Native Network One, the radio station that broadcasts news for Indian country. These Hamas supporting students at Columbia should be thankful they are only being deported. Usually the U.S. drone-strikes terrorists when they are walking down the street. Remember, we are on a war footing. Ocasio-Cortez is learning a hard lesson in electoralism. The "left-wing progressive" who defended Joe Biden till the last second is now the leader of the Democrat Reistance, claiming a thirty day extension would have given them time to "negotiate" with Repubs. Except they don't have any "cards", as Trump explained to Zelinsky. Like Gazans have no "cards". Or Haitians or Syrians or Sudanese or billions of others. Threatening to shut down the government is so exhausted I expect Newt Gingrich to return for an encore. On the economy front, Doomberg believes the Trump strategy is to initiate massive "creative destruction". Get it over with now with a sharp recession that clears out all the dead wood ie.. losers, unproductive capital, those not maximizing utility, etc. There's still plenty of room out by the freeway for people to pitch their tents. Three billion humans on our planet use less electricity per capita than one American refrigerator. This is what Marxists call "combined and uneven development". This backlash against DEI can be traced back to the 1619 Project, a multi-media research project by Nicole Hannah-Jones that placed slavery and its consequences at the heart of the American experience. That and the genocide of the Native inhabitants runs right up against the myth making of the Right so now that they are in power they will just re-write history, get rid of inconvenient facts and bully academia into submission. Make examples of a few folks, ban some books, shouldn't be long before they start showing John Wayne movies in schools. Not that schools taught real history to start with. I guess it's a good thing we have courts but it seems like a pathetic substitute for actual politics.
