This has NOTHING TO DO WITH TARIFFS. BE PATIENT!!!
Stable Genius replied to stevenkesslar's topic in Politics
Wait… I thought President Trump told us at his rallies that “China would pay the tariffs”. You mean that hard working, middle-class Americans who are already struggling will get stuck with the bill for these tariffs? That sounds like a tax increase, and not putting America first, which is not what we were promised. How can this be? I am so confused. /s President Trump on Saturday threatened Walmart over its plan to raise prices in the face of tariffs, demanding it absorb the costs instead. Why it matters: The White House, facing the risk of looming tariff-driven inflation, has turned to publicly threatening retailers to keep prices in check. Catch up quick: On Thursday, Walmart said it could no longer hold the line on costs, even with tariffs on China dropping to 30% from 145%, and would have to start raising prices on some items as soon as this month. https://www.axios.com/2025/05/17/trump-walmart-tariffs -
I've yet to see any in depth reporting about how the DOGE firing of 400 FAA jobs and elimination of another 1200 jobs due to the early buyout is affecting air traffic safety. The workers said those jobs were critical for maintaining equipment and air traffic safety in an understaffed industry. Shockingly, the number two at the FAA refused to tell Congress how many of the 1200 were controllers. You can see where this is going. Trump is going to give Musk and Starlink the billion dollar contract to overhaul our airlines and fix the chaos they created. They will ignore the safety concerns and conflicts of interest of doing so, and the GOP Congress will look the other way. Maybe making a former reality show TV star the head of the FAA was not the best move. He seems in way over his head. The incomptence, audacity, and criminality of this administration is breathtaking.

Its almost impossible to distinguish where the hypocrisy ends and irony begins: Kitchens Close to Avoid ICE at Steve Smith’s Broadway Bars Conservative bar owner lost prime weekend service at Honky Tonk Central, The Diner and Kid Rock’s because of heavy ICE presence https://www.nashvillescene.com/news/pithinthewind/lower-broadway-ice-sweeps/article_7840f5c5-fba5-447c-bb20-14016fc661aa.html

Is there enough liquor in DC for these two? If Fox didn’t exist t-rump wouldn’t have a cabinet.

So what if Casy Means (Surgeon General candidate) doesn't have a medical license? Jeanine Pirro (DC Attorney General) doesn't have a law license to practice in DC and that's not stopping Trump from appointing her. Nothing but the best!

I've never seen a US Presidential administration so hellbent on making the entire free world hate us. We are going to be friendless after treating so many allies like garbage. https://www.wsj.com/world/greenland-spying-us-intelligence-809c4ef2

The guy who pardoned 1500 domestic terrorists, and who pardons swindlers and cheats on a daily basis, cares about crime?

https://apnews.com/article/trump-alcatraz-prison-fabe3385415ae03829d44e50efb3c1fb AI comments: "Alcatraz closed down on March 21, 1963, due to a combination of factors, primarily high operating costs and the deteriorating condition of the prison. The isolation of the island made it expensive to transport supplies and maintain the infrastructure, and the harsh saltwater environment caused significant damage over time. The prison was also outdated and deemed inadequate for modern correctional practices." So naturally, the dumbest president in history wants to reopen it.

So Trump says disclosing the facts (Amazon disclosing the tariff tax) is a hostile and political act? That pretty much says it all. https://www.esquire.com/news-politics/politics/a64625246/jeff-bezos-amazon-trump-tariffs-backlash/

There is so much more than just signal gate, signalgate2, the makeup room, the signal desktop box, the paranoid firings, and the recent resignations. It’s just going to keep coming.
