6. Speaking of stupid things with predictable results. Buying $20B of Argentinian pesos is the height of economic stupidity. Stable exchange rates and low inflation is not really what Argentina is known for. But Stupid's gonna keep stupiding. https://www.nytimes.com/2025/10/17/us/politics/trump-argentina-bailout-bessent.html

When you hear or read anything from Trump and his apparatchiks, you shouldn't merely suspect that it might not be true.

You should assume that it's a lie.

Lol, I'm seeing messages from #Portland restaurants and bars offering free pizza to people wearing inflatable costumes, discounts on beer for protesters, even free beer for anyone in a frog suit! 😂 🚫 👑

Not being even vaguely sarcastic:

At some point, a journalist needs to ask Johnson
“you regularly claim you have no idea what your own government is doing.

If we take you at your word, how are you so poorly informed,
and do you this level of ignorance should disqualify you as speaker?”

Why do we have to keep bailing out their poor decision making?

Ohio’s @RepDaveTaylor now says his office was “targeted”, claiming others were too (nobody backs this up) 🙃 Beyond parody. Couldn’t make it up if we tried. They also claimed it was an optical illusion. 🤔 Boy do they think we are all morons.

DeSantis:🚨ppl <50 don't have much use for comp #health insur.

Gov DeSantis, now 47, says ppl his age & a little bit older can get by w/o much preventive care. “Most ppl, particularly <50, what they really need is a catastrophic plan that’s affordable, where then they can pay whatever they’re doing out of a health savings acct."

"Curious how his supporters will twist themselves into a pretzel to defend this comment."
-T Kennedy

CNN recently identified more than 100 American kids who’ve been separated from their parents due to ICE.

There are likely more—over four million US citizen kids have at least one undocumented parent.

“This is the new family separation crisis,” said one advocate.

Dear Lord, can you give back Ace Freeley & send Donald Trump to hell?

@nedhamson1 The Bulwark reports that J.D. tells us " Don't focus on what kids say in group chats... The reality is that kids do stupid things, especially young boys — they tell edgy, offensive jokes." One can only hope that Usha does most of the parenting so their sons don't learn from daddy that this behavior is just stupid - boys being boys. Which reminds me: Where are the Epstein files? #EpsteinFiles #jdvance #GOPkidsgroupchat
