I’m sure Trump’s “joke” that he will continue to withhold disaster aid to NC unless they vote Republican in the midterms will go over well there. Can he please come to Maine and tell some jokes for Susan Collins?

New in PN: Retire in peace

"McConnell would never be allowed to drive a car, babysit young children, or file his own taxes. Why, then, should a cognitively incapacitated 82-year-old retain one of the most important positions of power within the national government?"
Retire in peace
McConnell is the latest example of an incapacitated politician refusing to let go.

Yes, all the Trump appointees at the Fed voted to raise rates just because they want to make Trump look bad. I'm sure that's the case.

This is really well done.
New: Trump called crypto "thin air." Last year, he reported $1.4 billion in income from it.

Buyers of his crypto? They're an estimated $4.7 billion underwater.

I made an 8-bit game out of it—

📉 Play as an investor: you cannot win.

Losing Susan Collins, Joe Manchin said, would be to lose “the soul of the Senate.” Yet keeping her, and the GOP majority, risks losing the soul of America. Has the former senator missed the last couple of years? The import of the last few elections? My latest, for @ms.now www.ms.now/opinion/joe-...
