Washington Cuts off all $60 billions tariffs worth on China’s goods, while putting new bans on Canadian goods. This same admin accused Canada of dealing with China. This is not trade Strategy, it’s a desire to break and own Canada.

This seems like a pretty big deal: donors made illegal contributions to Susan Collins and then were awarded lucrative contracts after her office intervened with the Navy. An FBI investigation was dropped under Trump. www.propublica.org/article/fbi-...

To skirt campaign finance laws and conceal the source of the funds, Navatek planned to funnel the donation through a shell company. The CEO wanted assurance that Collins would know where
the money came from. Reed confirmed that she would, the executive said - and that Navatek would get its government contracts.
After the Corner Bakery meeting, Navatek's CEO, Martin Kao, sent an initial $150,000 to the Collins super PAC using the shell company. Two months later, he told Navatek executives that Collins committed to getting the company $32 million in naval contracts, according to an internal company email reviewed by ProPublica.

Wow that wind sure feels like winter is close by. Been standing helping at my neighbours Yard Sale for 2 hours 2nd Saturday in a row. But last week was hot as heck and even my ears are ringing with the wind today. Popped home for a cuppa and a warm up.
