Kaitlan Collins reminds Donald Trump that he agreed to abide by Supreme Court decisions just a few days and he flies off the handle, berating her and her news organization. This pathetic little bully needs to be impeached and fired ASAP.
The university will not surrender its independence or relinquish its constitutional rights. Neither Harvard nor any other private university can allow itself to be taken over by the federal government. https://t.co/5k5t9RYYC2
Replacing income tax with tariffs while on-shoring production to eliminate imports is not feasible. Tariffs on $3.8 trillion in 2023 imports would need a 58% rate to match $2.2 trillion in income tax revenue, but high rates reduce imports, cutting revenue. On-shoring shrinks imports further, making tariffs unsustainable. This could cause inflation, job losses, and trade wars, harming the economy. Tariffs are regressive, hitting lower-income groups harder, unlike progressive income taxes. Most economists oppose this, as evidence suggests it would increase deficits and inequality. Protectionist benefits are limited and cannot offset these risks. https://t.co/BFoTHXdgYb
Harvard has set an example for other higher-ed institutions – rejecting an unlawful and ham-handed attempt to stifle academic freedom, while taking concrete steps to make sure all students at Harvard can benefit from an environment of intellectual inquiry, rigorous debate and mutual respect. Let’s hope other institutions follow suit.
He Deports innocent U.S. residents, then turns around and says undocumented immigrants can stay and work in hotels and farms.
He fires a bunch of people in government, then begs some to come back.
He slaps tariffs on everyone, then suddenly “pauses” a bunch.
And people are still applauding this guy like he’s got some grand strategy?
I swear, it’s like I’m the only one not guzzling the crazy juice.
@atrupar This is one reason they raised the military budget to a staggering $1 trillion. We are now Russia. Trump is a bully. This is what bullies do. He has immunity. No president has ever had immunity—for very good reasons.
Just so non-traders understand the bombshell here:
Right before the S&P 500 (SPY) suddenly spiked, someone bought a huge number of call options — bets that the index would go up that same day. These were zero-day options, meaning they expire worthless by the end of the day unless SPY rises quickly. At the time, they were almost worthless.
Then SPY shot up. Those dirt-cheap options exploded in value. A $100K bet turned into $21 million in minutes.
That green spike before the jump is not luck. It’s foreknowledge. Someone knew exactly what was about to happen.
Someone’s going to prison.
