Trump Follows Pelosi On Trade Tariffs

-
Trump’s tit-for-tat tariffs on those who tariffs us is a “Johnny Come Lately” move and Not a new item!
Nancy Pelosi led the way in 1996 but couldn’t get Democrats to go along.
They didn’t go along this time either.
Much safer to sit on the side lines and kibitz and bitch than to lead and do something constructive!
-
Ps: It’s true --- she really was a looker in 1996.

Incredible clip from 1996. Nancy Pelosi on tariffs and the trade deficit with China. "On this day, your member of Congress could have drawn the line to say to the President of the United States, do something about this US-China trade relationship that is a job loser for the United States." Thirty years later and our annual trade deficit is now approximately $300 billion annually with China. Our politicians did nothing to stop this. They sold out America.

Shocking Tariffs: Theirs Not Ours
The Trump news conference on Tariffs was eye-opening and shocking!
Not because of his list of new US tariffs on our trading ‘partners’, But because of the secret list of ongoing tariffs being imposed on OUR produced products!

‘Cop-A-Feel’ Spartacus Booker: The Personification of Hypocrisy
“When he was in high school, Cory Booker, the New Jersey Democrat and possible White House contender, groped his classmate while making out. The incident resurfaced this week as Booker joined calls for an FBI investigation into the allegation of high-school-era sexual assault leveled by Christine Blasey Ford against Brett Kavanaugh, President Trump’s nominee to the Supreme Court.”

What a diffirent version of the “WSJ-news” if these acts were being commited against WSJ people and property and homes and business assets!

Walz CheerLeading Domestic Terrorists
Tim Walz, Democrat 2024 VP, is openly encouraging anti-Tesla actions on national TV and personal appearances and statements.
Comes very close to condoning terrorist fire-bombing and shooting at Tesla dealerships, Tesla’s on-the-street and parked at homes.

Shocking Tariffs: Theirs Not Ours

-
The Trump news conference on Tariffs was eye-opening and shocking!
Not because of his list of new US tariffs on our trading ‘partners’, But because of the secret list of ongoing tariffs being imposed on OUR produced products!

Shocking -- How could this list have been kept a secret from the American public?
If our government was keeping this hidden, where was our free and independent media?
Little wonder the bulk of our manufacturing base has been undermined and eroded down to a third-world-country level.

In addition to this new bad news we’re enlightened by the Musk DOGE revelations of massive waste, fraud and abuse within our own government and the associated fake-news that the cuts so far are “draconian”.

The American people are now like week-old kittens – just getting our eyes opened to our disturbing economic realities and what has been hidden from us by our government and “free press”!

Include Wives – Exclude Wives

-
The media all excited over SecDefense Hegseth bringing his wife to official government meetings!
This after Biden actually turned Official Cabinet Meeting over to Jill without any concerns by the PravdaMedia!
-
So – who’s the risky wife and who’s the no-risk wife and who’s being irresponsible?
-
Did the PravdaMeida ever express concern over Hillary’s total immersion in Bill’s presidential activities?
Albeit she was a little slow in excluding “Maid Service Monica” from the Oval Office.
-
Wasn’t Eleanor Roosevelt totally immersed in FDR’s official activities?
-
After President Woodrow Willson suffered a severe stroke, wife Edith pre-screened all matters of state, functionally running the Executive branch of government for the remainder of Wilson's second term.
-
For many presidents, haven't the First Ladies actually been the real “VP”?

Federal Employee DOGE Modest Cuts

-
Contrary to the media hype and Compared to many corporate business down-sizings,  the 2% ‘cuts’ are very modest as are the 3% buy-outs.
Going forward, even doubling these ‘cuts’, would be reasonable compared to private industry history.
Compared to Corporate down-sizing these ‘cuts’ are far from draconian as hyped by the PradvaMedia!
-
What We Know About the Trump Administration's Cuts to the Federal Work Force - The New York Times
-
Confirmed ‘Cuts’: 49,110 out of the 2.4 million civilian federal workers
Plus 75,000 Buy-Outs
-
Percentage Cuts: 49,000/2.4-million = 2% (2 out of 100)
-
Percentage Buy-Outs: 75,000/2.4-million = 3% (3 out of 100)

-
Hardly noticeable in the parking-lots or cafeterias or lavatories.
Something about 'if a tree falls in the forest'

Deporting foreign students over Middle East unrest? Jimmy Carter did it first - Washington Times
It sounds like President Trump, but he is following a path blazed 46 years ago. During the Iran hostage crisis, President Carter ordered his administration to review the status of tens of thousands of Iranian students to determine whether they should be deported.
