Our national parks generated $56 billion in visitor spending and supported 415,000 jobs in 2023. The entire National Park Service budget was just $3.6 billion. That’s some return on investment — so why is Donald Trump taking an axe to our parks?

Donald Trump won’t release the Epstein files but will release Ghislaine Maxwell. So, to recap: a pedophile won’t release another pedophile's files but will release a fellow pedophile.

Trump doesn't care about crime in D.C. — which is at a 30-year low. He's creating another fake "emergency" in an attempt to show force. If he actually cared about keeping the city safe, he wouldn't have stoked insurrectionists to attack the Capitol on Jan 6. Hello?

PIMCO, on $NVDA $AMD: “.. It is not clear whether the government can enter into such a revenue-sharing agreement on U.S. exports, since Article 1, Section 9, Clause 5 of the U.S. Constitution prohibits the government from ‘laying taxes and duties on articles exported from any state.’”

Never forget that these people live in a fact-free universe. Crime in DC is at a three decade low. Homicides in America are lower this year than any year since 1960. Violent crime last year was lower than it has been in 50 years. Property crime last year was lower than it has been in 60 years.
