  1. One more indicator that a market crash will happen sooner than later.

    "What’s with the stock market?”, #DailyKos

    "the “Buffett Indicator” is up to 225%. That’s not a good thing.”

    "The Warren Buffett indicator has just one job: to tell investors whether the stock market is overheating. And right now, at 228%, it’s sounding the alarm.”

    "The problem today is that at its current level, the indicator is beyond the 200% threshold that the Oracle of Omaha warned is when investors are 'playing with fire’."

    9 reasons the stock market is overvalued:

    “1. Irrational Exuberance
    2. FOMO Effect
    3. Algorithmic Trading
    4. Passive Inflows
    5. Speculative Leverage
    6. Earnings Manipulation
    7 Monetary Echoes
    8 Tech Monopoly Concentration
    9. Hopeful Fed Pivots"

  2. 📰 How much evil can Trump’s DOJ manage in a single week? - #DailyKos

    ❝The stooges at the Department of Justice were busy little beavers this week. Hey, it takes a lot of work to drop charges for a corrupt #DonaldTrump crony, then try to save #Trump’s bacon in one of his personal lawsuits, and to make sure that states never, ever try to stop the flow of assault rifles.❞

  5. Trump, one more example of Trump’s treason.

    Fox News, Kilmeade:
    “You think Putin is helping them [Iran]?

    The traitor Trump:
    "I think [Putin] might be helping [Iran] a little bit,” Trump said during his call-in to Fox News on Friday. “And he probably thinks we're helping Ukraine, right?” … “It’s like, hey, they do it and we do it, in all fairness”.

  7. Canada’s ad using Ronald Reagan’s argument against tariffs.

    From the DailyKos, "According to the BBC, the Province of Ontario had put together a one minute ad featuring clips from a Ronald Reagan radio address”.

    I’m not a Reagan fan, but he’s correct in this instance.

  8. Federal judges call SCOTUS’s shadow docket “inappropriate,” “opaque,” and a “judicial crisis” – Daily Kos

    by TheCriticalMind

    The current Supreme Court is making unprecedented use of the ‘shadow docket’. Reaction has been mixed. Liberals say the Court is a rubber stamp enabling Trump’s imperial presidency. MAGAs argue that SCOTUS’s conservative bloc is doing God’s work by thwarting anti-democratic rulings by unelected, activist, lower court judges.

    However, politics aside, Supreme Court rulings impact how the Judiciary does business. To understand the practical effect of the Court’s use of the shadow docket, the New York Times polled US District and Appeals Court judges.

    It reported its findings in an article titled: Federal Judges, Warning of ‘Judicial Crisis,’ Fault Supreme Court’s Emergency Orders.”

    The subhead summarized the substance of the piece. To wit:

    Dozens of sitting judges shared with The Times their concerns about risks to the courts’ legitimacy as the Supreme Court releases opaque orders about Trump administration policies.

    The Times wrote to “hundreds of federal judges across the country” — and 65 replied. The respondents are not named. But the paper said presidents of both parties had appointed them. And that, while there was a difference in degree, Judges across the political spectrum worried about SCOTUS’s high-handedness. In the NYT’s words:  

    Of the judges who responded, 28 were nominated by Republican presidents, including 10 by Mr. Trump; 37 were nominated by Democrats.

    Adding: While those nominated by Democrats were more critical of the Supreme Court, judges nominated by presidents of both parties expressed concerns.

    The paper asked the judges if they agreed or disagreed with the following statement: The Supreme Court has made appropriate use of the emergency docket since President Trump returned to office. Overall 72% said SCOTUS’s use was inappropriate, 9% hedged, and 18% (all Republican) said it was appropriate.

    Tellingly, while almost all Democrats said SCOTUS was on the wrong side of the line, nearly half the Republicans concurred. The conclusion is inescapable. When half your team thinks your side stinks, it stinks.

  9. Day 4 of the Republican/Trump shutdown

    "A moment of reckoning comes for every bully, strongman, and dictator. Always. See History. GNR”, #DailyKos

    "Nobody likes a bully. Not even the human parasites who lurk by his side, snickering nervously as he picks on people who are (temporarily) unable to defend themselves. In the end, the bully has no friends or allies. Everyone fears and despises him, biding their time until the bully is weak and exposed, ready to be overthrown. That moment of reckoning has come for every bully, strongman, and dictator who has ever lived. See History.

    Trump does not understand this lesson."

  10. Part 2 - "Gov. Pritzker Just Did Something VERY Important to Fight MAGA”, #DailyKos

    The remainder of: "There is a lot Democrats can legitimately say... if they have the courage:”

    - Are you a Country who aided and abetted Trump’s deportation schemes? Listen, I’m not saying the CIA has a rich history of toppling governments, but maybe you should second guess your cooperation.
    - Are you National Guard? Are you breaking the Law while federalized? You’re going to Leavenworth.
    - Are you a foreign government cutting deals with (bribing) Trump? You will face stiff sanctions.
    - Are you a media company carrying water for Trump? Democrats in Congress will investigate you.

  11. Part 1 - "Gov. Pritzker Just Did Something VERY Important to Fight MAGA”, #DailyKos

    The important part of the article is halfway down "There is a lot Democrats can legitimately say... if they have the courage:”

    - Are you a member of ICE? Are you breaking the law? Democrats could theoretically threaten to make private information for lawbreakers public when back in power.
    - Did your corporation illegally bribe Trump? Democrats could jail your executives and even pursue the corporate death penalty. Or maybe nationalize you?
    - Did your University bend the knee? Democrats can threaten to withhold funding to Universities who discontinued DEI and targeted transgender individuals.
    - Did your law firm do free work for Trump? A Democratic Administration could threaten to blacklist those firms.
    - Are you MAGA and on a visa? Democrats could threaten to deport you this time. See how you like Uganda.

    "
    Trump is desperate to erase any sign of Musk
    "
    "Office of Personnel Management announced the end of the so-called “5 things” emails ..

    ..Confusing, mocked, and largely ignored, the initiative came to symbolize the overreach—and dysfunction—of Musk’s short-lived career in public service. .."
