It's really crazy how they just keep stumbling into nazi shit over over and over and over and over.

This one isn’t getting that much attention, but it is probably the worst thing Trump has tried to do and fucks the average MAGA the most.

The rate credit card companies charge is directly tied to risk. Having lower rates means they won’t take on risky clients (lower income, lower credit score), which means many people will no longer have access to credit or much less of it.

You can see why this would be of interest to Trump’s horde of under-demons. By limiting financial flexibility, it keeps the populace dependent on ruling class (tech bro oligarchs). Long term people are less able to take risks (like starting a new business) and are stuck working more in lower and lower paying jobs.

The dream for the hell lords is for no one to be paid at all. Modern feudalism and serfdom, where all wealth is controlled by a select few with absolute authority over life is given to our new kings and lords.

Nothing these guys do or propose is for the “good of the people”, it is all towards the goal of total control and absolutism - but wrapped in a nice load that MAGA can swallow.

This isn't my take on this at all. Predatory loans with rates above 10% do a whole lot more to harm poor people than a lack of credit ever will. This absolutely would tank the market, though. This country runs on debt.

I've done some purging of maga associates in my life, but tonight I'm going out with an older maga couple I've known since I was a kid. Good people, at least I thought so, but depending on where the conversation goes this might be the last time I ever talk to them.

In fairness they aren't the hardcore types. No signs or hats or anything. They're of the "Well I don't really care for him but what am I supposed to do, vote for a democrat?" variety.

I think one NATO country annexing another against their will would pretty much be the end of the alliance.

It could stay together without us. Maybe France nukes us or something.

I've been in a golf group with mostly older guys for the last few years. I've known who they were, and they've known who I am, and we've had an unstated agreement to just not go there. A few of them like to occasionally drop some dumb political jokes that I just ignore but we've mostly peacefully coexisted and had a good time together. This weekend one of them started saying the most horrendous things about Good on the 13th teebox and I just couldnt let it pass. It got real ugly for a few minutes and the final holes were dead quiet. I will not be playing in that group any more. Frankly a bit of reflection for myself the last 24 hours that I should have exited from that group long ago but perhaps was too selfish to do so. This is all so fucking weird.

NATO would reform in a heartbeat, without us. Same buildings and facilities, same wording in everything, just without the US.

Serious question. Say the mid terms are allowed to happen and there is no bullshit and the dems take back the house. They impeach the president. He and his defense team just don't participate at all in the senate trial. What happens?

There is so much legal stuff that would happen, and don't forget, they would be putting Vance in power, you think Vance is going to turn it down if they impeach Trump and order him sworn in? Congress also still has the power of the treasure and could shut down a lot of Trump's bullshit, could even fuck around with budgets for various agencies/the White House.

And that is why I believe that Trump is desperate to get that Venezuelan oil sold off and that money in coffers he controls outside of the Congress's reach. I know that it is mostly him trying to funnel that money somewhere (donor or family member) because the grift is real, but I think there is still a very good chance that he thinks he needs to have money that Congress can't touch.

I just posted in the DT Greenland thread that the EU Commissioner for Defense stated they need to create an EU Defense Council + the UK as a result of our invasion of Venezuela and the threats against Greenland, because they can no longer depend on (or maybe trust) us. I heard it on NPR while running errands a couple of hours ago but haven't found anything in American media yet.

The Buddhist monks were joined by a bunch of folks in a city in Georgia (I think.)

This should be cool for a wildly overpriced stock market. Good job, brilliant businessman.

Edit: apparently, subpoena was served on Friday, probably after market close. It's not an accident that Powell waited to release this info until the last hour, when the futures market opened. He's not going to let them do this as quietly as they wanted.

Is Powell the highest profile person the DOJ has gone after?
