It was a banner week here in the U.S. With a stroke of his pen, the President pushed the world towards a recession. Then, he toddled off to Florida for a long weekend for golf and fundraising. What an asshole. It really is so much worse than I expected.

People took to the streets all of the country on Saturday for the hands-off day of action. The tanking of the markets this week surely brought out even more marchers. It’s good to see more and more people getting vocal about the sad trajectory of the nation.
