Trump put $1,000 of taxpayer money in eligible childrens' accouns. This money must be invested in the stock market so that it juices Trump's holdings.

Why is this not communism? Isn't this just stealing from everybody (and really to give to him by juicing his stocks)

The Republican party is the party of criminals and hypocrites. They all need to go to jail. They have all abdicated their function and it's an abuse of every single office that they hold.

Trump and the economy thread 🧵

Did Trump really say he would rate his performance on the economy " 'A' plus plus plus plus plus"?

Looks like this fellow joined the bank in August 2025 and was arrested in November 2025 (and was terminated by the bank then).

Also elsewhere you can see that he was sentenced to 51 months in jail.

If your money is with a fintech company but you think it's with a bank, no it's not, and you have no money any more.

"The Trump administration argued that mass immigration enforcement will free millions of jobs for Americans by reducing competition from foreigners. The opposite is true. Despite administration claims, a recent study shows that the crackdown on immigrants has not unlocked jobs for Americans. During the first nine months of 2025, Immigration and Customs Enforcement operations led directly to at least 668,000 lost jobs" in the United States:
