Swinging These Down, Here

On Trade Wars

This is a long piece, but unless you're a professor in economics, you might learn something.

If You Served and You Are OK With This Bullshit, Bless Your Heart

This is his latest bit at cosplaying as a war hero:

Trump is a draft-dodger whose only bits of known violence have been inflicted on women likes to cosplay that he was awarded the MOH. If any other politician had done that, it would be a national scandal.[1] But the MAGAts think its great and the GOP caucus in Congress is too cowed to utter even a peep.

What about you? If you served and you are OK with this, then you've been quaffing the Trumpy Kool-Aid to the point of lethal toxicity.

Let's compare a president who served to one who didn't, shall we?

Never forget that Trump is a bully and a craven coward who hid in a food truck with his primary daiper-changer, letting a few hundred people serve as unwitting decoys for his gutless ass.

Shitposter-in-Chief

He's started a war he can't win, inflation's rising, diesel fuel's hitting record highs, his top lackies couldn't negotiate a lease to an ice cream truck, let alone cut a deal to end his stupid war, and what does he do (in between Natalie changing his diaper? He shitposts about renaming New Mexico.

This after yet again making the US look like a buffoon nation.

Thanks, all you jagoffs who voted for him.

Amazon Crash

An Amazon 767 ran off the runway in Miami this afternoon, killing five.

Five is a little more than the standard complement of a 767 crew, even with a jumpseat rider or two. I'm guessing that one or more people on the ground were killed.

Your Sunday Morning Aircraft Noise

OSH arrivals:

ICE is Full of Criminals and Pedos

They skipped background and fingerprint checks in their rush to fill out their ranks of brownshirts.

Which should surprise nobody who has been paying attention.

Reminder: Musk is Pro-Kiddie Porn

That's his stance: Deepfaking images depicting child sexual abuse is permissible.

So far, the courts aren't buying it.

SpaceXAI runs X and Musk seems to be involved in that up to his eyebrows, so I have little doubt that he's involved in this. It seems like just the skeevy sort of shit he'd be into.

Trolling

In 1938, Nazi Germany had a game about expelling Jews. In 2026, the White House released one about deporting brown people. If history is this intent on repeating itself, can we just speed up to the part with the bunker.

What this racist game really is is an attempt by the Trump/Miller Administration to distract people from the Epstein Files and Trump's Failing War.

Caturday

Let it all hang out.
