UPDATE: Donald Trump Takes Office as the 47th US President



This is wrong. When rates come down too much then it makes it easier for speculators to borrow money to buy real estate, which in turn causes house prices to rise. This is a well established phenomenon. So lowering rates won't help ordinary Americans buy houses. It will make it more difficult for them. It would only help rich speculators and the equity firms borrow more cheaply and thus increase the prices for the rest of us. Don't buy this nonsense folks.

And it's beyond disgusting that corporate interests should be "demanding" that federal officials who don't kowtow to their interests resign. Powell should stick to his guns and continue to do his job. And his job is not to help real estate speculators flip houses for quick profits
 
These bills always get passed.
I thought they would have been queued up 2 weeks ago for the July 4th party. I know the president can't really support his golf club on secret service reimbursements.
... and they're either lying or dumb if they think inflation is dead. Prices are still outrageous (ex. Groceries and fast food).
I had to use Affirm to buy 2 apricots the other day. I don't feel like a man unless I have my marmalade.
 
Yeah I feel you Mrs Obama.


Good for her.

I got real tired of them floating her around as an option not because she is qualified (and she is qualified, mind you) but because they simply don't want to do the work of properly aligning their party's goals and actions into something concrete.

The Obamas did their service to their country, and that used to mean something. It meant that you went into the sunset and did whatever you felt like the rest of your life. And it also meant that it was not unreasonable to find any number of other people that could do the job(s) that you vacated. I get that MAGA is a cult, but you can't tell me that they can't find (or build) a viable candidate that could carry the remaining majority.

The Hill is a trash ass organization. This nation was lead by Thomas Jefferson. Please, knock off the sanctimony.
 
The next crop of immigrants won't care about the indigenous black folks.
The current crop don’t care about us or our issues. Same as it has always been. Let them Latino's do all the heavy lifting and then we will come in for the victory and center ourselves as the reason we all won. You know the black and brown coalition.

I am thinking of the use of AI and pedagogy in immigrants and their progeny. I think we have lost the war.
 
Is this why the barricades were put up in the darkness of night?

It was a No Iran War protest scheduled today, but it got cancelled. There is going to be a protest on July 4 which is crazy because there is already alot of stuff going on in DC on that day...

Initially I thought that's why they putting up those barricades because of the 4th july activities downtown



 
Eric Trump suggests he could run for president when his father’s term ends

Eric Trump has hinted that he or another of the Trump family could run for president when his father’s second term in the White House comes to an end. Eric, who is co-executive vice-president of the Trump Organization, said, the road to the White House “would be an easy one” if he decided to follow in his father’s footsteps.
