Where does this tariff money go? General fund to pay customs personnel or will this be used to offset taxes on the rich? What happens when Americans decide not to buy goods from overseas and choose to buy fewer but better made and more expensive domestic goods

Mass firings, shutting down critical services, blowing up our alliances, crashing the markets, encouraging inflation... These aren't the actions of a political party aspiring to get reelected. These are the actions of an authoritarian regime that does not intend to honor elections ever again.

Holy smokes. The Mail, a staunchly RIGHT-WING newspaper in the UK, slammed”‘bully” Trump and called for his state visit to be cancelled. Trump is now the laughingstock of the entire world.

📸 No one follows more etiquette rules than the Royal Family—but notice how King Charles didn’t make any smart-ass or demeaning comments about Zelensky’s attire today. Why? Because respect isn’t about clothes—it’s about character. And that’s something money can’t buy.
