We’re actually going full Idiocracy, holy shit. That’s crazy.
I JUST posted this in the McMahon seperation thread, fucking hell
Surely she’ll be less bad than DeVos, though
I just read the Oz thing. I fucking can’t anymore.
Sure, whatever.
At this point, I frankly don’t even really care anymore.
between this and dr oz, is he just hiring people he knows from tv?
He appears to be picking people from one of three lists:
- Republicans with media experience (aka people he knows from TV or social media).
- Whoever wrote the relevant section of Project 2025.
- People accused of being Russian assets (mostly just Tulsi Gabbard at this point, but there’s a reason she’s going to be in charge of foreign intelligence and it’s not for our benefit).
Since literally everything in the government seems to be getting dismantled, what companies are going to pick up the pieces for these sectors? If we are drowning in a sinking ship we can at least invest in a life boat to buy eggs with and fight the impending inflation. The goal seems to shift trillions from government funding to private sectors and deregulate to let the friends of Trump get even wealthier.
I’m buying reits. Real assets may hold their value while trump is purposely fucking shit up.
Hit us with some ticker symbols.
VNQ. But I am holding a large cash position and don’t know what the fuck is going to happen. Either way, I am going to be buying substantial equities sometime in 2025. I’ll probably DCA into total US market and then when trump shits the bed I’ll dump a lot of money into the market. I might favor tech.
Alternatively, if there is decent real estate in my town, I’ll dump my house and buy something bigger and better. Probably the safest investment I can make, long-term.

Solar is and isn’t going to be a future successful asset, because Trump will do everything to devalue it while the rest of the world moves right on to adopting it.
Gold is at an ATH, Bitcoin is at an ATH, oil is a gamble because while Conservatives may push it, the move for renewables is against it.
Metals and materials for computer chips are still worthwhile investments and Ai is shaky unless it pulls a few more parlor tricks.
The only real things I can find that are corrupt and exempt enough from litigation or a recession…
are prisons and weapons contractors.
Things are going to get so ridiculous.
LET’S GET READY TO CRUMBLEEEE!!!
TRUMP SLAMS LINDA INTO THE EDUCATION SECRETARY POSITION.
They are on track to bankrupt The Onion
That’s their game plan to prevent the Onion from purchasing the infowars domain
Does the USA just let anyone become in charge of large areas of the country? Like you don’t need to be an elected official or anything?
Elected? You don’t even need to be qualified. Or even sane.
In case anyone thought Trump didn’t stick to the “predator nominee” picks.
Reminds me of Dolores Umbridge. Why do they all remind me of Dolores Umbridge?
Because despite the fact that Voldy was Harry’s nemesis via prophecy, Umbridge was everyone nemesis. Just out of spite.
She was worse.
Imelda Staunton did an amazing job of playing such a vile character. She really nailed the lawful evil nature from source material.
She plays vile so incredibly well. I think it was Gypsy that I had to turn off and take a break from, as she was so horrible (the character, not the acting).
