Trump announces a massive tax increase on ordinary American consumers to fund tax cuts for billionaires.

Trump's tariffs seem to be aimed at punishing the poorest countries. That sounds pretty familiar for a bullying little shit.

In Ukraine, a missile did fall,
On Zelenskyy's hometown, a call,
The devastation was grim,
Life turned tragic and dim,
But the spirit of the people stands tall.

should be fun, i wonder if people realise how deep is the dependency on us-based services in the i.t. departments.

Americans' taxes just went up by $6 trillion. That is a million dollars multiplied by 6 million.
Don't tell me Trump is trying to save anything. This guy is a economy destroyer -- and not just ours.

I got really lucky today, and can definitely confirm there is not just one, but two foxes in my neighborhood. Was not expecting that, they are not skittish at all.
Anyway, some fun images here. And I have been told to think of names. Not sure yet. The front one is a vixen, and I think the one in the back is a dog fox.
More to come (1/3).

Today, Trump has put a total of 20 percent tariffs on medicine made in Europe.
One of the most popular medicines made in my country Denmark is Wegovy. Its list price yesterday was USD 500 per month. Trump has now potentially raised that to 600 dollars.
Every. Single. Month.
Vote for a clown.
Expect a cirkus.
Update: While the point about the tariffs holds, the above is actually a bad example, as pharmaceuticals including Wegovy are exempt for now. Thank you to @deepak for pointing that out.

As usual I visited the Floating Heads in Kelvingrove during my Glasgow trip.
Love love love the floating heads.
They all looked miserable to start with, & I wondered if it was some kind of political statement, but it turned out to be a temporary blip based on where I was and where they were facing 😆
As I appear to be doing a Glasgow mini-thread, have I mentioned before how much I love the Mathematics and Statistics building at the University of Glasgow?

[Financial Times]: Donald Trump’s beautiful trade war. By Edward Luce
“The political impact goes mostly in one direction. In theory, higher inflation and lower growth ought to harm a sitting president. Trump came to office vowing to lower prices — as distinct from reducing inflation — and is now delivering its opposite.”
