At a really nice, but totally isolated, hotel and we’re (almost) the only guests. Scandi Noir mind has gone into overdrive. How do the owners get through the winter? Who is buried beneath the half-constructed outdoor hot tub?

This is it. He and his cronies are making fortunes AT THE EXPENSE OF AMERICAN CITIZENS. If you think he still has your best interests at heart then there is no helping you.

why is *every* newspaper/programme running with the headline "tariffs are paused" when they haven't been. What's happened is that every country (except China) gets a flat rate of 10% for 90 days.
