Russia makes most of its money from oil.

Destroying Iran’s oil infrastructure limits the supply.

When a supply of something is reduced, the prices tend to go up.

Putin is surely happy with his purchase of Trump.

Trump is #PutinsPuppet.

It's a "range extender". 🤣

I voted for all of them--and the two smart ladies on the left.

Inside TurboTax’s 20-Year Fight to Stop Americans From Filing Their Taxes for Free Using lobbying, the revolving door and “dark pattern” customer tricks, Intuit fended off the government’s attempts to make tax filing free and easy, and created its multi-billion-dollar franchise.

"When you hear those never-ending tax commercials..."

Which reminds me: FUCK INTUIT!!

#Ai is replacing jobs. Trump's chaotic tariffs and xenophobic rhetoric are decreasing business. Trump is hollowing out competence from the government, and causing an outward flight of competent immigrants.

Which begs the question: why should they stay here?

Trump is #PutinsPuppet. It really is that simple.

All have had big donors from the oil industry.

Countries that have oil: take it, or take it off the market.

Russia's primary monetary source is oil.

Republicans have more in common with Russia than America.

Also, war is a big business.

Profit!

DOJ releases "mistakenly withheld" Epstein files with uncorroborated claims about Trump The Justice Dept. has released Jeffrey Epstein files involving uncorroborated accusations by a woman against President Trump that the department said had been mistakenly withheld.

Reminder: CBS is now owned by billionaire and Trump friend, Larry Ellison.

"...she bit Donald Trump after he tried to sexually assault her"

As bad as this sounds, this has surely been spun to sow doubt, to benefit Trump.

You can bet the truth is even worse.

$143 million taxpayer dollars!

I’ll say it, yet again:

The whole Trump regime is a criminal organization looting our government of taxpayer dollars.

What media consolidation means for free speech : The Indicator from Planet Money Jimmy Kimmel’s brief departure from the airwaves triggered a wave of debate over free speech.  Partly triggering his suspension was the government threatening to leverage its power over pending media ...

Prior to the Telecom Act, companies couldn't have TV audiences that covered more than 25% of the population. This was to ensure that TV showed a range of views, that it was responsive to local needs, and was competitive. This new law allowed TV and radio companies to grow *much* larger.

Telecommunications Act of 1996 - Wikipedia

The Telecommunications Act of 1996, which allowed huge TV and radio station ownership consolidation is something I think will need to be reformed once Trump's fascist takeover is thwarted. It should be treated like #antitrust legislation.

Earlier today I was thinking to myself and almost blurted out, "The only people worse than Trump are serial killers!"

Then I thought about it some more and realized he has caused more deaths than any known serial killer.

Reminder: #Russia is still attacking #Ukraine and that is the only place in the world Trump wants to reduce military aid.

How about that?

Theocracies are just plain bonkers.

Step 1: Alienate America's allies.
Step 2: Destroy tourism to America.
Step 3: Cause so much chaos with tariffs that American businesses die.
Step 4: Use U.S. taxpayer dollars to pay #IceThugs to attack Americans.
Step 5: Deplete U.S. weaponry and ammunition.
Step 6: Trump basks in Putin's praise.

Gee, it's almost as if Republicans in Texas are both corrupt AND incompetent. Weird.

A big part of the authoritarian playbook is war. War takes over the news. War blots out criticism. War divides a nation’s people, subjecting those against it to being called unpatriotic. War grants leaders all sorts of emergency powers. War consumes everything else.

We mustn’t let this war do so.

Of course it will. This is how you weaken America. Just like Putin wants.

Trump is #PutinsPuppet.

I’m just fucking bewildered by people who are too willfully ignorant to see it.

I’ll bet he’s young—like only 79!
