Why are Russia and North Korea exempt from tariffs?

Corruption.

Russia shamelessly sent the Sovereign Wealth administrator (the very next day) to Trump directly under the guise of negotiations? Ukraine is being paid war reparations? I don’t think so.

Putin is building up his military and Netanyahu is in Hungary.

Putin was offshoring as reported in the Panama Papers (click here). How much is he down? He maybe sending money to a friend.

Trump is obsessed with Greenland while the USA Soace Force is warning about China destroying American satellites.

Is Liberation Day a national holiday yet?

I mean if the Republicans are getting rid of Independence Day after its anniversary will Liberation Day take its place?

April 3, 2025 will live in infamy.

Musk

Musk’s DoGE is destroying contracts of Musk’s competitors. What does this say about “Stargate?” 

(Click here)

Musk has already attacked OpenAI and Oracle. Apple is the only one left, right? 

So, Trump announces an ambition of a sovereign wealth fund and sets up “Stargate.” Then Musk places DoGE in government agencies to dismantle his competition because he has no expertise and needs the experts now working for the competition under his roof so he can make money.

Deloitte still has recourse against the broken contracts. So does every other contractor. 

This is not clearing up debt, it is creating different kinds of debt while making the USA government weaker with a growing incompetence and corruption.

Bored? Or short attention span?

The Executive Order ain’t all that.

Trump was probably excited about the visit of Kirill Dmitriev (click here) from Russia’s sovereign wealth fund. Another big pay day for Donald. Aren’t we having fun. Let’s destroy the USA and be paid to do it.

How does one instill fear in the world?

The nothing tariffs (click here). My, my aren’t we the absolute best propagandist in the world.

Mearsk purchased the Panama railroad despite all the huffing and puffing by Trump.

Look, the losses are real for investors if they didn’t find shelter in the storm. 401ks probably took the biggest hit.

April’s Fools. Trump is a menace.

He is afraid of Wall Street wealth setting up an off shore account somewhere and avoiding the tariffs. Trump is a crazy old fool irrationally hungry for power.




The GOP is undecided how best to destroy democracy.

The USA dollar slide is stunning.

Trump is destroying the USA.

No other country is suffering except the USA. Japan is our financial partner so it is being abandoned along with Trump. Germany has done remarkably well through the Musk/Trump invasion of the USA. China is the second largest economy in the world so if Wall Street goes there to survive it will be okay. China has no reason to complain at this point.

The investors have probably found a soft landing in China. They will probably be okay and develop China’s economy further. Goldman is in China. Or better said Henry Paulson is there. 

The real question is the value of the USA dollar and its sustainability as a global currency. The Republicans are allowing the destruction of the USA. Why?

Orban is out of step with NATO and the EU.

Orban says it is reaction to the warrants against Netanyahu. I believe the EU can act against Orban fur violating the alliance.

Putin is having a fit about Iran, too.

Vladimir Putin is a bit of a predictable president. If it looks like he is going to act, then he is preparing to do just that. He might be going back to Syria with crosshairs on Iran. I would be surprised if this is about NATO.

What is Belarus and Hungry up to?

I am not impressed. I still think it is about Syria, Iran, and the Middle East. It would be imprudent to over react.

If this were about NATO Russia would be weakening his front with Syria and Iran further. Iran has been an ally to
Russia. Russia has destroyed the Syrian rebels before. I think there is still a Russian port in Syria. Putin has been making accolades about the Black Sea and movements there. It points to the Middle East. Turkey would have a clearer understanding than anyone else. 

Netanyahu and Trump are openly aggressive about the Iranian nuclear program.

Talking about a ceasefire with Ukraine allows relief to Russia’s military to focus elsewhere. 

Erdogan has been coming down on citizens about his control. That is because he is nervous about the region.

Gas Lighting

This is all nonsense and propaganda for Trump’s political followers.

GREENLAND IS ALREADY PROTECTED BY THE USA. It is called NATO.

Take the lousy bastard to the ICC and charge him with terroristic threats.

Trump is in violation of the USA alliance with
NATO by threatening an invasion of a sovereign ally’s territory. The USA is already bound to protect European allies, including their territories. The alliance is why the USA has military bases throughout the world including Greenland. If Trump can’t understand very simple relationships with allies then he has mental health problems that involve aggression and he needs to be removed from office. 

It does not take Einstein to understand this. Republicans are jerks.

I don’t want to hear a word out if ANYONE regarding the economy of Greenland when the Republicans are allowing Trump to tax the living shit out of every Third World country!

Trump is a “shot hole” president.

Trump is harassing Greenland’s government for political propaganda purposes. He is using terrorist threats to do it.

Hey, the National Guard need some major equipment.8

The ice storms have isolated people in Michigan and the good hearted National Guard are helping all helping, but, they need assistance other than chainsaws. There needs to be equipment that can move those logs once they have been cut to size. Seriously.

Ron DeSantis is wrong about Canadians.

The USA border is being viewed as an unpredictable place by many people traditionally comfortable with traveling here. It is not because the Canadian government is warning citizens to stay home.

(Click here)

Europe’s precautions have changed because of recent detentions. Those detentions of people openly welcome into Canada gives people pause.

I imagine Canadians owning land and homes in the USA will be here to visit, but, the legal crossings at normal points of entry are seeing less Canadians coming to visit.

Trump scares people. Just that simple. I believe that is deliberate on the president’s part. He thinks it will scare away illegal crossings. It works on vacationers, too.

It is important Congress remove all those restrictions for Canadians as well as end the tariffs with Canada. The USA and Canada have always been the closest of allies, including trade. Congress must end these hostile policies.

Congress needs to be defend those bills if the president refuses to sign it. 

I swear he is the anti-Christ.

One does not have to believe in the Bible to understand that idea in the real world. 

Evangelicals are global. They were kicked out of Russia when Putin called the diaspora home and closed the borders at least five years ago. They should be careful. This level of greed and hate will spawn the same. Other countries will start to look around and decide about all this.

Trump goes against the belief system of the world. Up to now the USA had a benevolent presence that encouraged cooperation between countries to heal old wounds and bring about better quality of life. Trump has turned against all that.

Trump is causing suffering everywhere, both domestic and internationally.

This is not normal.

This is not politics. This is something very different. It is attack on civilization. When the USA intelligence two decades ago assessed what the world would be like in the chaos of a heating Earth. THIS IS NOT IT. The president was supposed to stabilize, not destabilize.



Croney Corruption

Trump is removing all regulations, including FDA. These importers provide quality products to USA standards and above. Trump’s cronies can’t compete. These tariffs are not about removing taxes off anyone. These tariffs aren’t about leveling the playing field for American products. These tariffs ARE intended to limit consumer choice while allowing products with greater contaminants in food and medicine. 

I can’t believe he is doing this to little Vietnam who has to defend against China.



How wrong headed is this?

Johnson exhibits his anti-family side. To begin this is not only anti-American, namely the children, it is being Trump’s puppet.

This measure is unconstitutional. It violates the legally, legislatively passed Family and Medical Leave Act. Amazing.

401 K

If depositors didn’t see this coming and made transfers in their account last week they will take a beating. It takes a few business days to carry out requests to change investments. If depositors are racing today to save their investments, they are out of luck. 

Birds of a feather flock together

Eric Adam’s found a kinship with Trump. They are both corrupt to the bone. So, why not use Adam’s to divide and conquer? Trump is hoping the Adam’s voter will abandon the Democratic Party.

There has been severe ice storms. The warning today is calling for awareness of catastrophic flooding.
