Don't forget illegal tariffs!
In 2021, the Dow went up 18%. In 2025, it went up 13%ish. Yet I don't recall any Republicans praising Biden, much less his AG, back then?
So since the AG sampled the market, the Dow has fallen 500 pts below 50k. The NASDAQ is off 7% since Oct. Turns out she's not that great at picking stocks either.
For so many years, it was hard to imagine music without Sly and Robbie, and now it has sadly come to pass. Riddim in Peace. #slydunbar
Happy Gnu Year to those who observe the Gregorian calendar (if we're still calling it that??)
Just an annual reminder that, for most of the Northern US, today is the earliest sunset of the year. That's right, from now on, the sun will stay up later. You're welcome! #earliestsunset
I'm with Halle Berry.
Happy Thanksgiving! Latest Substack post on a Fall in Fall: open.substack.com/pub/brucesmu...?

Gutted to learn of the passing of Jimmy Cliff. He was not only a Beautiful Person, he made the world more wonderful with his presence and music. www.youtube.com/watch?v=5XDV...
ChatGPT apparently came too late for Marco Rubio, who thinks that "copy-and-pasted" is the equivalent of "authored."
No one anywhere, at any time or in any place, has ever been charmed by Stephen Miller.
Never ever never understood why people looked up to this guy when his attitude was arrogant and his professional record was dismal.
If you think you've ever heard me say a nice thing about Larry Summers? I'm quite sure you've got me confused with someone else. Though apparently he could do one thing well: Ask Epstein for dating advice.
It would just SHOCK me if Patel's crowd mistook the equivalent of planning to throw some eggs on Hallowe'en as a "terror attack." www.cnbc.com/2025/11/02/h...
Happy Hallowe'en from Jaws, Scaredy, and Snaggletooth!

Homegrown, that's the way it should be. #gardening
Good to know that only males can identify the qualities that qualify one to be a soldier, but when It comes to what painkillers one should take when pregnant? Only males can decide that too. Got it.
Imagine Corp Bigwigs tell u: "We like u & r gonna give u 10 mill USD." U say, "What's the Catch?" They say, "U have to increase the value of the company." U say, "Well DUH, what else?" They go "U have 2 invest 100k in our company." This is LITERALLY (less 6 Zeds) what Wall Street is agog about 2day!

I have Zero doubts that that's true!
Welcome to StagFlation 2.0, MAGA! And be sure and fire the person who collected the statistics on the way out, it's clearly their fault: www.cnbc.com/2025/09/04/a...
Granted. with all the craziness going on, this may not even rank in the Top 10, BUT can you even IMAGINE the vitriol and cries of "STATE SOCIALISM!!" if Biden or Obama had purchased 10 percent of a major US corporation?? www.cnbc.com/2025/09/03/s...
I'm not sure that the latter is the case. He likes to drive his cart solo cuz it makes it easier for him to cheat.

The US rolls out the red carpet for War Criminal on US soil, & then allowed WC 2 be lead speaker at the subsequent presser; WC promised to give up Zero in his quest for peace. Of course, this opportunity is all at the behest of someone who once saluted a North Korean general, so nuttin' to see here!
You know, there WAS a time where the GOP insisted that, if an individual said something even REMOTELY pro-Russian, they should be "cancelled," regardless of how long ago or even whether they worked for the gov't or not. Nowadays, they put them in charge of National Intelligence.
Glad to see that Elon "send me an email with what you did today" thing caught on!
