"This BBC graphic is a good way to show why reciprocal 25% tariffs will cause prices on some goods to go up far more than 25%.
A piston used in a car engine made in Michigan will cross the U.S. border twice, and will be taxed 25% each time. Some products cross more than that."
-A Melnick-Reichlin
#Tariffs will decimate the US', & many countries' economies.
I always enjoy @anderspuck commentary for a balanced perspective on the #Ukraine war situation: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SaCbUtTuLhA

New US House legislation would
1- Order printing of $250 currency bills, with #Trump's portrait on them
2- Designate "Gulf of America" day
3- Designate Trump's birthday as federal holiday
" #Trump's decades-long worship of John Gotti-style mob rule reached its zenith Friday in the Oval Office, with the shakedown of #Ukraine's #Zelensky aided by his underboss #JDVance
Like Gotti, America's embrace of an amoral strongman will not end well.

Canadian Prime Minister Justin #Trudeau said his priority in talks with King Charles on Monday will be protecting his country's sovereignty after #Trump recently suggested making #Canada the 51st U.S. state.

Because #terrorists apparently don’t have money. They finance multimillion dollar operations on multiple continents FFS.
Then there’s the #RussianOligarchs, #DrugCartels, you name it.
#Trump is such a f⁕⚠︎ing idiot it is painful.
Born here? Sorry. Got cash? Okay, sure.

#Trump floats $5 million '#GoldCard' as a route to #US #citizenship
Trump on Tuesday floated the idea of replacing a #visa program for foreign investors with a so-called "gold card" that could be bought for $5 million as a route to American citizenship.

Yet another reversal. Pressure works.
#Trump Reverses Cuts to 9/11 Health Program 👉🏼After Criticism👈🏼 - The New York Times
WTF ??????
#Ukraine started the war ?
Just 4 percent still supports #zelensky ???
I know, I have to stay calm but #trump makes that very very hard to do.
#uspol
@mattblaze Another resignation is exactly what #Trump wants. SDNY filed 34 felony counts against Trump and he is seeking his revenge.
Given Trump's level of literacy, a "devastatingly withering resignation letter" is highly #overrated while Rome is #burning.
#Trump said he will announce 25% #tariffs on all imports of steel and aluminum on Monday — Bloomberg

Excuse me??
“ #Trump announced his intention on Friday to bring the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts in Washington more firmly under his control, saying he would dismiss several board members and install himself as chairman.”

Elon Musk and these young boys all have access to your social security number and financial interactions with the government.
On twitter right now, Musk is banning everyone who posts the names of these hitler youth he and Trump unleashed into the governments private data.
In case you're confused about why #elonmusk calls USAID a "criminal organization": The agency played a role in ending his beloved #Apartheid.

Eradication is their ultimate goal.
"Employees at multiple federal agencies were ordered to remove pronouns from their email signatures by Friday afternoon, according to internal memos obtained by ABC News that cited two executive orders signed by #Trump on his first day in office seeking to curb diversity and equity programs in the federal government." #LGBTQ
Seriously?

In the Oval Office a bit ago, #Trump was asked by a reporter if he will visit the crash site of the plane in DC. His response:
"What's the site? The water? You want me to go swimming?"
