Donald Trump says he's declaring war on low prices by slapping 25% tariffs on Canada and Mexico but only 10% tariffs on China. FAFOtown, USA voted for lower prices, but I don't think that's coming.

All this kinda idle time has given me time to think on what could have been done to prevent the 2024 election fiasco. I have written an essay, which I hope gets reposted over and over again, and eventually reaches the people that have the means to eliminate this type of election loses.

I have been using WhatsApp on all international trips. Nothing works reliably as whatsup, that's what many other countries call it. The unlimited text and calling outside of the USA is mostly worthless, the data is however good and whatsup has been 100% reliable when needed either text or calling

When gaming out what important Republicans will do, it helps to remember that a horde of pro-Trump rioters beat up the cops who were trying to protect them and they all had to flee the Capitol for their lives and within the month they decided their best strategy was to roll over for Trump

1/President Biden will commute sentences for 1,500 people & pardon 39 more. In a commutation, a defendant’s sentence is shortened to the amount of time they have already served. A pardon wipes out a conviction as though it never happened. open.substack.com/pub/joycevan...

Trump wants to revert to our nation’s dark past of trickle-down economics that benefit the ultra-wealthy while hurting the middle class. This includes passing $5 trillion in tax cuts for the rich and cutting essential programs that hard working families rely on, like Social Security and Medicare.

New: TikTok wants the court that just upheld the sale-or-ban law to halt it, saying the Supreme Court should decide and Trump may overturn it anyway. Options more desperate by the day. Even a one-month shutdown would cost the app a third of its 170 million U.S. users. Ban is less than six weeks away
