@Microinteracti1 Interesting that he didn’t bring up Trump’s past threats to NATO countries (Canada, Denmark). I guess the general either overlooked them or didn’t take the threats seriously.
I wish conservatives got this straight:
Without blue states, America would look like a failing country; patchy internet, collapsing schools, no tech, no medicine, no future.
Red states cash the federal checks. Blue states write them.
You don’t fund the nation. You bleed it dry.
The math is simple: the places screaming the loudest bring the least to the table.
Our lobbying system in Australia is a total joke.
Monique Ryan and I have a bill in the House and Senate to fix it, but the major parties prefer the lack of transparency and accountability.
Labor and the Coalition need to do better.

The Trump budget in one chart: Cut programs that help families and make America a leader of the world, pour money into kidnapping grad students and deporting toddlers.
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.
