remember, it's all 100% self-inflicted
elected to close the border, reduce cost of living, and end forever foreign wars
instead they engaged in:
performative theatrics in blue cities instead of durable border policy
loud trade wars with everyone all at once instead of tactical engagement with China + strategic re-shoring of critical industries
poking every ally in the world in the eye simultaneously instead of doubling down on the ones which will matter for the next century
right before starting a war of choice with Iran at the apparent behest of Israel
skyrocketing the price of energy and most other things, making people feel poor and helpless, while engaging in pointless vanity projects putting their name on everything
all done simultaneously with the most corrupt and grift-laden admin in recent memory
and what, they just thought that the voters wouldn't care??
lmao

Everyone is always rooting for you. Your parents want you to be a great son. Wife wants you to be a great husband. Your boss wants you to be a slam dunk hire. Every first date you’ve ever been on they’ve been rooting for you to get laid. Every time you started to tell a joke people hoped it would have a hilarious punch line. Your proximity to anyone is a reflection of themself, meaning the deck is never stacked against you, and your failures are completely your own
Readers added context they thought people might want to know

These people are national heroes, and I love them. Anyone making fun of them is evil. They are American heroes who are putting children first. God bless them.
$6.25 billion. 25 million children. $250 each.
Susan and I believe the smartest investment we can make is in children. That’s why we’re so excited to contribute $6.25 billion from our charitable funds to help 25 million children start building a strong financial foundation through Invest America. 💪📈🇺🇸

One of the things I love about @Azuki is that sometimes there are pieces worth more than their price.
It’s not always about immediate return or how much profit one can make. Sometimes a piece will spark something in you, remind you of someone or something special and it becomes a must have. This is that kind of purchase for me.
This piece has been idle in a wallet for over 4 years. The second it was listed I knew I had to have it. So here it is.

Sam Altman was fired by his own board.
His co-founder Ilya left.
His top researchers left to start Anthropic.
His head of alignment quit.
He dissolved the safety team and its replacement.
He converted a nonprofit into an $850B for-profit.
He removed 'safely' from the mission statement.
His employees begged him to stand with Anthropic.
He said he would.
That night he took the deal they refused.
Then announced it on X like a victory lap.
And you still think this man is building AI for humanity?

Dear @AGPamBondi: You did the one thing your king ordered you not to do: you made Trump look guilty.
You also lied under oath.
And you surveilled the search history of Congress Members.
We are impeaching you when we flip the House. Unless you resign first.
Good evening.

On November 1, 2024, four days before the Presidential election, Bitcoin hit $69,500.
It is now at $69,200.
We’ve given up the entire Trump pump.
All while US government spending has gone higher and higher, the dollar has tanked, NASDAQ and gold are within reach of all-time highs.
The opposite of what most everyone on CT expected: Trump elected, nearly all risk assets rally, crypto tanks.

I have a degree in Public Policy & before crypto worked in the government for many years.
Tons of close friends & family still do.
The issue with America is the two-party system. It pits us Americans against each other.
It’s not conversation on ideas, it’s all framed as good VS evil, and the other side is ALWAYS ‘evil.’
Late stage capitalism consolidating wealth at the upper .1% creates hyper fixation on problems that the layman cannot control.
Then it radicalizes them when no changes are made.
With social media, there is an increased amplification on extremist rhetoric (on both sides of the aisle).
Not every issue has to be politicized, but both parties want them to be.
Why?
It drives donations & funding.
It’s never been about policy, it’s been about creating narratives to drive further division in our country in the name of profits consolidating for the rich (that back both sides).
It can change.
But the only way to make that change is accepting not every issue needs to be a political one.
Things can be wrong with America.
The left can be wrong.
The right can be wrong.
But we, as humans, should accept basic rights constitutionally guaranteed to us & embrace that the government doesn’t need our blind support on every issue.

absolutely bananas that this needs to be said to people are known to legally open/concealed carry, wear “don’t tread on me” shirts, and lament paying federal taxes in general
yet here we are
you won’t understand government overreach until it comes to lock you up next
enjoy the coming national police state, fam. you’ve earned it

Just saw the news.
I try not to talk politics on this account, but there comes a point where you have to use your voice.
The fact we have Americans, exercising their constitutionally guaranteed rights being executed in broad daylight is disgusting.
A post does nothing.
Calling congress does nothing.
There’s a difference between politics & being a decent human being.
Not every issue is a political issue.
Some come down to human decency.

The 2nd amendment is not for hunting, it is not for self protection
It is there to ensure that free people can defend themselves if god forbid government became tyrannical and turned against its citizens

Insane take from the head of product at X.
Nikita needs to go.
Rather than supporting growth and users are who are chronically online, he finally admitted he has intentionally nuked our reach and tried to kill our community on this platform.
He's literally incentivizing people to post and create less content.
CT isn't dying from suicide, X is.

We elected President Trump to shrink the size of the government after Biden’s bloated spending.
In 2025, Trump’s government spent 4.1% more than Biden’s government spent in 2024, despite the DOGE headcount cuts.
Trump’s polling is at 40% and moving downward.
Spending taxpayer money is his best bet at reviving popularity.
In the last month, Trump has said he will increase military spending by $500bn, he has given armed forces $1776 bonuses, and now asked for $200bn to buy mortgages.
I expect a total ballooning of the US deficit in 2026.
