This was planned all along. "We can't make a foreign country do anything." Which is why they will continue to send people to El Salvador because Bukele isn't going to do anything that Trump doesn't want him to do. Courts and lawyers have to stop the actual flights before they occur.

The first mosque was in Iowa. You can't get more "American" that that.

👏

Did we learn nothing from what has happened in other countries like Argentina? No, we have not.

The constitutional crisis is here.

Makes sense to me.

Luxury retailers starting to crack. LVMH saw a 3% decline in sales in Q1. Analysts expected a gain of 2%. finance.yahoo.com/news/lvmh-po...

Consumer boycotts can actually be effective.

No master plan exists.

I love these articles. It certainly helps if you have a pension or a spouse. That's really the only way to retire "early." Also noticed that this time they didn't open the comments. Too bad. www.wsj.com/personal-fin...

Stories are coming out now. The tariffs are about more than the iPhone.

Best quarter, and worst, for the VanEck Gold Miner ETF #GDX since inception in 2006. I don't own it but own some individual gold miners instead. Expense ratio of 0.51%.

The performance of the VanEck Gold Miner ETF #GDX since inception in 2006. Gold at new record highs in 2025.

I wonder how long it will take before we find out AI is also contributing to mental health issues?

I love this "comeback" for her. We need Lady Gaga at these times.

Not even. It last THREE DAYS. New order was published last night. Can't even last a week. Meanwhile, millions of other businesses are still in the midst of the trade war and won't survive the month.

Who's going on that cruise? Yikes.
