Just figured out where these fake tariff rates come from. They didn't actually calculate tariff rates + non-tariff barriers, as they say they did. Instead, for every country, they just took our trade deficit with that country and divided it by the country's exports to us.
So we have a $17.9 billion trade deficit with Indonesia. Its exports to us are $28 billion. $17.9/$28 = 64%, which Trump claims is the tariff rate Indonesia charges us. What extraordinary nonsense this is.
How can you be anything other than completely torn apart when we still haven't finished excavating the remains of Jim Crow's victims and those in power are dead set on tearing those pages from the history books, maybe even taking inspiration from them?
Elon Musk, the richest man alive, worth $359.4 billion, wants you to work until you drop dead. Social Security was signed into law 90 years ago. It has paid every benefit owed to every eligible American on time for 86 years & lifts over 20 million people out of poverty a year.
Stephen A Smith on DEI: "When you're a weekend host on Fox News and now you're the Defense Secretary of the United States overseeing 3.5 million people, that is not qualified!"
I remember having a conversation a year ago about an incredibly worrying trend. In surveys, the dividing line between young voters wasn't just male vs female — it was whether you graduated high school pre or post-COVID.
The latter group was incredibly anti-social and very angry.
Just going to continue emphasizing that this, detaining a bunch of people who haven’t been convicted of a crime and incarcerating them en masse in a fortified location against their will because they are part of a specific ethnicity or other group, is a concentration camp
you either accept it was a seig heil or pretend elon is simply so stupid that he accidentally hit a pose that looks exactly like a seig heil twice in a row
