    White men are back, bitches.

    Goldman Sachs Group Inc. is abandoning a significant pledge it made to refuse initial public offering business with companies that had all White, male boards.

    Even Bloomberg is in on the act, capitalizing the word white in its lead sentence.

    Goldman openly telling companies it’s now OK to have a lily-white board and Chevron referring to the Gulf of America in its quarterly report are how you know that Trump won a mandate.

    White men are a distinct minority.

    This is how a mental midget in thrall to a radlib dominatrix determines a “mandate”. By spiking the ball 60 yards plus from the red zone, i.e. before voters freaking out over the price of eggs and swallowing lies about bbq’d cats and dogs realize they’ve been lied to, their shitcoin “investment” is just that, shit.

    Next time the mental midget is combing the beaches of the “Gulf of America” it will be certain to gorge itself on the seafood. For no other reason than “pwning teh libs”. The world will be a better place afterwards.

    I see that Welfare Queen YLB is most fearful of competent, experienced white men.

    Competent, experienced, and male are things she has never been, after all.

    Anyone else notice that the last three polls posted on RCP have DJT47’s approval well over 50%?

    Including CBS News at 53%.

  7. 7

    Biden’s approval never recovered from his disastrous decisions in Afghanistan. Nor should it have.

    @1 “White men are back, bitches.”

    They never left. What’s back is their privileged position in society.

    You, of course, were a white male privilege admittee to med school and a white male privilege hire by the hospital.

    You want to root out waste, Elon? How much taxpayer money will be wasted on changing maps, signs, and schoolbooks to placate Trump’s naming whims?

    Appeals Court Won’t Halt Judge’s Order Requiring Trump Administration To Unfreeze All Federal Cash

    A federal appeals court on Tuesday refused to immediately halt a judge’s order requiring the Trump administration to release billions of dollars in federal grants and loans that remain frozen even after a court blocked a sweeping pause on federal funding. …

    The Justice Department argued the sweeping lower court order to keep all federal grants and loans flowing was “intolerable judicial overreach.”

    https://www.huffpost.com/entry/trump-federal-spending-appeals-court_n_67abd6c0e4b0c52db9ab0b9f

    Guess it wasn’t intolerable judicial overreach, or at least the appellate court doesn’t think so. But they still have an appeal left: Now they can ask the Supremes to set aside the rule of law.

    @3 Dismantling the federal government wasn’t on the ballot last fall, and neither was Musk, so how could the election be a mandate for what Musk and Trump are doing now?

    Oh sure, there was talk in the media about Project 2025. But Trump told voters he’d barely heard of it, didn’t know what it was, and disavowed it.

    Maybe he lied.

    CNBC lede tonight:

    Tesla shares fell 6% on Tuesday and have dropped for five straight days, wiping out over $200 billion in market cap.

    Tesla stock is down 18.8% this month. Politics? Lousy cars? Both?

    Yahoo Finance story tonight:

    Zhang Yazhou was sitting in the passenger seat of her Tesla Model 3 when she said she heard her father’s panicked voice: The brakes don’t work! Approaching a red light, her father swerved around two cars before plowing into an SUV and a sedan and crashing into a large concrete barrier.

    Stunned, Zhang gazed at the deflating airbag in front of her. She could never have imagined what was to come: Tesla (TSLA) sued her for defamation for complaining publicly about the car’s brakes — and won. A Chinese court ordered Zhang to pay more than $23,000 in damages and publicly apologize to the $1.1 trillion company. …

    Over the last four years, Tesla has sued at least six car owners in China who had sudden vehicle malfunctions, quality complaints or accidents they claimed were caused by mechanical failures. The company has also sued at least six bloggers and two Chinese media outlets that wrote critically about the company, according to a review of public court documents and Chinese media reports by The Associated Press. Tesla won all eleven cases for which AP could determine the verdicts. …

    It is not common practice for automakers — in China or elsewhere — to sue their customers. But Tesla has pioneered an aggressive legal strategy and leveraged the patronage of powerful leaders in China’s ruling Communist Party to silence critics ….

    Tesla sales are declining in China. I wonder why?

    Eggs may be up 700% since Fat Hitler was returned to office.

    But it’s all worth it to Republicans now that they can give each other Nazi salutes and go hard R again. That’s “real” freedom.

  24. 24

    Think of this – Republicans have successfully boycotted Budweiser’s policies…..wait for it……but, but they haven’t successfully boycotted cheap Chinese goods by buying local alternatives! Supporting AMERICANS AND AMERICAN JOBS!

    Thank you. 🙇‍♂️

    Ford CEO donated $1 Million to Trump and now panicking after steel tariff hike.
    Appeasement does not work. Maybe CEOs will learn that bribes only count for something till they leave the room.
    Big and small, people are learning that JimCrow2.0(dot)com will destroy them.

  26. 26

    Blue collar conservatives realize Trump’s steel tariffs will cost them their company and jobs.
    “I voted for republicans so I didn’t have to compete with women and minorities. I wanted to be able to be mean to them again. I didn’t want some immigrant stealing what was supposed to be given to me. I didn’t vote for this.”
    Big and small, people are learning that JimCrow2.0(dot)com will destroy them.
