NYDailyNews: McDonald’s sales unexpectedly dropped at a level not seen since the COVID-19 pandemic dragged on businesses in 2020. Investors got the bad new Thursday when McDonald’s Chairman and CEO Chris Kempczinski told them during a conference call that numbers at U.S. stores opened at least one year had slumped 3.6% in the first quarter of 2025.

CBS: Stocks sank sharply in morning trade after new government data showed the U.S. economy shrank in the first 3 months of the year.
The S&P 500 dropped 93 points, or 1.7%, to 5,468; the Dow Jones Industrial Average fell 604 points, or 1.5%; and the tech-heavy Nasdaq Composite shed 2.4%. The Commerce Department said in a report on Wednesday that the nation's gross domestic product — the total value of products and services — shrank at a 0.3% annual rate, down from growth of 2.4% in the final 3 months of 2024.
"This is Biden's Stock Market, not Trump's. I didn't take over until January 20th. Tariffs will soon start kicking in, and companies are starting to move into the USA in record numbers," he wrote. "Our Country will boom, but we have to get rid of the Biden 'Overhang.' This will take a while, has NOTHING TO DO WITH TARIFFS, only that he left us with bad numbers..."
___LOL. Biden left with GDP ~growing~ by 2.4% and expected to rise even more. This is 100% The #TrumpDepression we're heading into. and it has ~everything~ to do with tariffs.

Let's start a pool on when we reach 10% unemployment thanks to Trump's tariffs and failed economic policies.

ENG: Visionary essay by Naomi Klein and Astra Taylor on End of Times Fascism and how to combat it. What follows link are extracts translated to spanish.
ESP: "Nos enfrentamos a una ideología que ha renunciado no solo a la premisa y la promesa de la democracia liberal, sino también a la habitabilidad de nuestro mundo compartido: a su belleza, a su gente, a nuestros hijos, a otras especies. Las fuerzas a las que nos enfrentamos han hecho las paces con la muerte masiva. Son traicioneras para este mundo y sus habitantes, humanos y no humanos." (...)
"Contrarrestamos sus narrativas apocalípticas con una historia mucho mejor sobre cómo sobrevivir a los tiempos difíciles que se avecinan sin dejar a nadie atrás. Una historia capaz de despojar al fascismo del fin de los tiempos de su poder gótico y galvanizar un movimiento dispuesto a arriesgarlo todo por nuestra supervivencia colectiva. Una historia no de fin de los tiempos, sino de tiempos mejores; no de separación y supremacía, sino de interdependencia y pertenencia; no de escapar, sino de permanecer en el lugar y ser fieles a la problemática realidad terrenal en la que estamos atrapados y atados.
Ese sentimiento básico, por supuesto, no es nuevo. Es central en las cosmologías indígenas y se encuentra en la esencia del animismo. Si nos remontamos lo suficiente, cada cultura y fe tiene su propia tradición de respetar la santidad del aquí, y no de buscar a Sión en una tierra prometida esquiva y lejana."

@aaron.rupar The #TrumpDepression will be the GREATEST depression ever! #EconomicVandalism

@JoeChip @GhostOnTheHalfShell Congress has the power to claw back the tariffs, but the GOP members are too afraid to be out front. They will wait until their own constituents light pyres to give them courage, but the damage may be done.
The #TrumpDepression will be the GREATEST depression ever!!!!

I remain much against buying things in the US. I am NOT going on a pre #tariff spending spree. If anything we did a little of that before Biden left (got a fridge that was badly needed) and stocked up on some canned goods. But we are stopping that now! Time to bow out of this economy as much as can. If you have any savings, maybe buy some land so that they can't steal your money. Remember, Trump has threatened to end the #FDIC and you can probably imagine why! #trumpdepression #trumprecession

The United States had strong alliances and a bright future but destructive Donald Trump put an end to that.
"As Pres. Donald Trump levies crippling tariffs on Europe, China and the rest of the world, the E.U. is cautiously looking to Beijing as one way to achieve what it now calls a need to “diversify” its economic partners in the face of U.S. aggression":

Harry Enten: "Trump is making history": he's the first president since the S&P 500 was created in 1957 to inherit a bull market and turn in a loss of at least 5% at this point in his presidency. This isn't like other early declines. Trump took a bull & is turning it into a bear." #TrumpDepression #politics

Brian Rosenwald: "It is going to be very interesting to see where Trump’s polls are in a week or two. Because no one has ever witnessed a president intentionally crashing the economy before." #politics #TrumpDepression

Stop_Project25: "TRUMP’S ECONOMIC PLAN =
BILLIONAIRES GET RICHER, YOU GET SCREWED.
Markets crashing.
Jobs vanishing.
Prices soaring.
Retirement? GONE.
This isn’t leadership, it’s a wrecking ball. And YOU’RE the target.
LET'S STOP PAYING THE PRICE FOR TRUMP’S CHAOS."

Protest is not about "sending a message." It is about creating a crisis that those in power cannot ignore. Every successful movement follows three essential principles:
1. Clear, Non-Negotiable Demands
2. Escalating Pressure
3. Noncooperation: Stop Enabling the System

"In 2015, then-President Barack Obama committed the United States to achieving newly adopted U.N. global goals by 2030, including ending poverty, achieving gender equality and urgently tackling climate change. The Trump administration now says it “rejects and denounces” the goals."

Jessica Riedl: "The Dow has now fallen 2,000 points in the 15 days since the trade war was expanded. The S&P is also down 6.5% over that period. But at least we can cushion the blow with higher prices, deepening job cuts, falling business investment, and export industry devastation."

"Carter’s order gave the Council on Environmental Quality (CEQ), a branch of the White House, the authority to issue binding regulations governing how federal agencies must comply with the National Environmental Policy Act (#NEPA). Trump, by revoking it, takes away that power from the #CEQ."
