trump doesn't know the difference between a lawyer and an attorney, but he can never be wrong so now they are having to invent a justification instead of just clarifying his statement.

It probably means he's waiting sanctions. So much for the "Russian Sanctions" bill.

His whole speech was based on hypotheticals.

Can we talk about the fact that the administration narrative has gone from the US acting because Israel was going to attack (stated by Rubio) to Iran having the capability and desire to launch a nuclear capable ICBM?

They use a 4-year, cumulative metric for Biden but a 3-month metric for trump.

I'm so sick of using the CEO analogy to describe Powell. Bezos left the CEO role and became Executive Chairman of the Board of Amazon, that type if transition happens all of the time.

Can someone please ask him what his IQ is?

It's nice to see him with his stress ball. Anger management therapy works.

Odd analogy with "food stamps", which the government absolutely dictates where it can be used and what for.

I wish just one person would ask what "losing the race to China" means.

The problem is the term "super intelligence" already has a meaning within the AI lexicon, so this "renaming" is doing nothing but creating confusion.

Just to be clear, the fraudsters are the "agents" who get paid per enrollees. Also to be clear, the trump administration relaxed controls on this activity.

Remember, Bessent refuses to talk to Bloomberg because of a negative story.

Remember, he doesn't listen to a question to understand it and respond thoughtfully. He listens until he hears a trigger word, in this case he takes "repressive" as an insult to his "friend" Xi and then he jumps in to defend him.

Right, he was down 10 points to Biden the summer before Covid.

From my understanding, they are basically waiving sanctions to allow Venezuela and the existing middlemen to conduct business, with the agreement that Rubio gets to approve the flow of funds. I don't think the U.S. government is getting any proceeds, but they don't want to contradict trump.

charlesedavis.bsky.social @charlesedavis.bsky.social · 18/09/2026
Are they being collected by the U.S. government? I thought that basically Treasury (or State) was allowing the oil to be sold by brokers with the agreement that the proceeds would go into the Citibank account.

Pursuing how? By referring him to himself for prosecution?

charlesedavis.bsky.social @charlesedavis.bsky.social · 08/09/2026
He's not. He's an employee of the WH that they like to put out there to say he "wasn't aware" of what ICE and CBP are doing.

I sorta appreciate people trying to make sense out of it, but he explicitly says "we don't need anything they have." Except "hot tamales" from Mexico, lol.

So he must think he's making Iran rich by preventing them from trading with the world.

How can Kernan say that the official GDP numbers, as published by the department that Lutnick is supposed to run, is merely "perception"?

charlesedavis.bsky.social @charlesedavis.bsky.social · 02/09/2026
So what Lutnick is saying is he tried to leverage the Canadian elections to gain concessions and Carney didn't fall for it.

Whatever happened to the "Affordability czar" he was supposed to appoint in March 2025.

Don't worry about the debt ceiling, the GOP will just increase it to $50 trillion on their way out of power in November.

This is the same thing Lutnick said about Modi last year before Lutnick stopped appearing on TV.

He means he wants to treat Canada as if it were a state, i.e. dictate domestic policy under the auspices of a trade deal, and they didn't fall for it.

King is getting rightfully dragged, but what about the other interviewer who kept asking her how she would pay for things, and then claimed that she didn't answer when she clearly did!

So now we're promoting "dumping"?

Bessent's "3-3-3" plan has already failed.

I wish people would note that Bessent is not an economist, he's a bond and currency trader. He doesn't understand labor markets or budgets (and especially not wars).

Can someone please point out to her that you don't need a new "trade deal" if you have an open market to sell your goods.
