Watching the Dow crash for the third day in a row since the megalomaniac in chief unilaterally put 25% tariffs on imports from Canada and Mexico, the orange one tried to change course again. First he suspended tariffs on cars from both nations. Then he paused the tariffs on Mexico for a month. As the market kept hemorrhaging, the then paused the tariffs on Canada for a month too. The Dow regained about 100 points of today’s loss, but still closed down 428 points for the day, adding to the more than 1200 point drop sustained over the two previous days.
At DownWithTyranny.com yesterday, Howie Klein wrote “Trump is Tanking the Economy — He’s The Worst By That Metric Since Herbert Hoover” – and everyone else is realizing that reality too. Howie Klein joins us today for our regular Thursday get-together to talk about this and more. Is Trump getting the message? Maybe.
Today he also convened a cabinet meeting where, Politico reported, he “put new limits on Elon Musk, clarifying that each cabinet member is in charge of their own departments, not Musk.”
I ended the show by reading a poem about the billionaire conman Musk. Howie Klein posted it here, and led me to BlackAgendaReport.com where Raymond Nat Turner wrote this brilliant missive:
Vampire Ponzi-schemers pigging out on blood and
Sweat in our tax trough of trillions? Who are these
AI monsters with mythical Midas touches? How many
Lives have their ill-gotten gains cost? How many more?Who’s the Hitler-loving, morally bankrupt, spiritual
Pauper posing as world’s richest human? Who’s the
Wild Boer-Afrikaner loading loot into big, bulging
Apartheid carryon bags?Who’s the stealth—Self-selected, Apartheid-infected—
Un-elected, disconnected, misdirected—Un-vetted
Un-Marie Antoinette-ed …Parasite— playing Freddo’s
Puppet-master? Who’s the grifter treating lives like emojis?Which white supremacist devil—Afrikaner—reengineered
Hell with assembly lines? Dropped apartheid into Alameda
County? How many bleeding ulcers did each billion cost us?
How many heart attacks? Strokes? How much self-medication?How many Tequila shots? How many black eyes? How many busted lips?
Broken jaws? Restraining orders? Divorces? Broken homes and ugly
Custody battles? How many foreclosures? How many tattered tarps,
Torn tents and cardboard mattresses did each of his billions cost us?By the way, MrMuthafukkka: “What did YOU do last week—”
Besides put on pants—one leg at a time—and prance like a
Peacock polluting our planet with the sulfur stench of greed?
“What did YOU do last week—” justifying space on this Earth?“What did YOU do last week—” in masturbatory bully mode—
Besides stuff sneering champagne-caviar-hole? Besides defecate
Firings on federal workers’ heads? Besides flood zones with nazi dreck?
Besides metastasize cancer of cruelty in MAGAt minds? Besides breed greed?“What did YOU do last week—” except peer up at the stars— And
Not be humbled? Except piss off hand-to-mouth, unhealed, unhoused
Everyday people? Except father your own gravediggers; and teach Marx
Better than a thousand Harvard, Yale and Princeton professors combined?“What did YOU do last week—” Except confirm we can no longer Afford
You; And your dim, sunless vision and want you gone? Want you gathering
Your Boys From Brazil/Hitlerite-hackers; Want you boarding your boy toy
And blasting off! (Note: Sun Ra don’t want you on Saturn; And Martians don’t play)© 2025. Raymond Nat Turner, The Town Crier. All Rights Reserved.
