Everyone wants there to be a grand scheme behind all of this but the terrible truth is that extremely stupid people are in charge and they have a fanatical devotion to wrong, childlike concepts of society and economics cooked up by right wing radio hosts in order to sell tainted dietary supplements

Steve Jackson Games posted this to their blog and the post is getting so many hits their site is effectively crashed but the point is worth repeating

" On April 5th, a 54% tariff goes into effect on a wide range of goods imported from China. For those of us who create boardgames, this is not just a policy change. It's a seismic shift.
At Steve Jackson Games, we are actively assessing what this means for our products, our pricing, and our future plans. We do know that we can't absorb this kind of cost increase without raising prices. We've done our best over the past few years to shield players and retailers from the full brunt of rising freight costs and other increases, but this new tax changes the equation entirely.
Here are the numbers: A product we might have manufactured in China for $3.00 last year could now cost $4.62 before we even ship it across the ocean. Add freight, warehousing, fulfillment, and distribution margins, and that once-$25 game quickly becomes a $40 product. That's not a luxury upcharge; it's survival math.
Some people ask, "Why not manufacture in the U.S.?" I wish we could. But the infrastructure to support full-scale boardgame production – specialty dice making, die-cutting, custom plastic and wood components – doesn't meaningfully exist here yet. I've gotten quotes. I've talked to factories. Even when the willingness is there, the equipment, labor, and timelines simply aren't."

What a Trump victory will mean, is the completion of the annihilation of Palestine and others, abandoning of Ukraine/Europe to aid Russia's invasion, US/ Israeli war against Iran, the return of CIA death squads in the Middle East and Africa, economic collapse, and so on.

Cannot be emphasized enough: Barack Obama successfully negotiated a deal to stop Iran's nuclear program. Trump, having inherited a vastly improved situation with Iran, deliberately tore it up. The fact that they are now on the verge of having nuclear weapons is entirely his fault.

A chart of Iran's stockpile of low-enriched uranium, which climbs from 2008 to 2015 when JCPOA is signed and then drops to near nothing... until Donald Trump withdraws from JCPOA and it climbs again.

The Trump administration summarily fired the staff of the U.S. Institute of Peace late Friday night, less than two weeks after forcibly removing the congressionally funded organization’s president and installing in his place an agent of tech Elon Musk’s U.S. DOGE Service.

wapo.st

DOGE fires nearly all staff at U.S. Institute of Peace headquarters

D.C. employees of the institute, founded and funded by Congress, received late-night termination notices, though most of its overseas staff were left in place.

Oh my God. The email contains an implied threat that any student who doesn’t immediately leave might be sent to El Salvador. /technically it says “countries other than their countries of origin,” but the context right now, given everything going on, makes the threat clear.

Remaining in the United States without a lawful immigration status can result in fines, detention, and/or deportation.
It may also make you ineligible for a future U.S. visa. Please note that deportation can take place at a time that does not allow the person being deported to secure possessions or conclude affairs in the United States. Persons being deported may be sent to countries other than their countries of origin."
