It's subtle, but if you look very closely at this chart, you can see the exact moment when Trump announced the Japan trade "deal" that prioritizes imported cars over American car manufacturing

NEW: South Park targets President Trump over the Epstein files in their new episode, puts him in bed with Satan. The episode comes as South Park has just reportedly agreed to a 5 year, 50 episode, $1.5 billion deal with Paramount. “The Epstein list? Are we still talking…

Trump is going to the Federal Reserve tomorrow, according to his schedule. Only three presidents have visited the Fed. FDR when its HQ building opened in 1938, Ford when a buddy of his became a governor, and George W. Bush for the swearing in of Ben Bernanke.

Columbia pays $221 million to avoid losing $1.3 billion in research grants Trump continuing to trash our best future interests, what a nightmare
