They missed the fourth option. Revise the tax code so that corporations and billionaires pay their fair share. The fiscal debt crisis is directly related to the Bush and Trump tax cuts.

Time for everyone to read “The Jungle “ by Upton Sinclair. It’s why we have a Food & Drug Act.

Non lawyer here with a question. If USPS is an independent agency and not part of the executive branch then why would they have to comply with an executive order?

Yes but at any point AG Bondi could have reversed Blanche’s decision. Her silence was and is an approval.

Hmm, perhaps a fund could be established to compensate consumers who were victims of the illegal tariffs? I think there might be a spare $1.776 billion lying around.

Walker’s first question should have been why is the treasury secretary here to discuss foreign policy and national security? Were the actual experts too busy to show up? That’s right, there are no subject matter experts in this administration.

Enough already with the beatification of Charlie Kirk. His death is a tragedy but don’t forget his anti immigrant, anti abortion, anti gun control, white Christian nationalism. He was no saint.

How about voting to impeach and remove him? If starting a war isn't a high crime, then what is?

Nope. I think the entire dust up was scripted and is as phony as the Trump-Elon feud.

If they want to block Patel then do it. One senator can put a hold on him, as they should have done for every single nominee.

NY Times headline, Trump’s Gaza Proposal Has Many Pitfalls. Let me edit it for you: Trump’s plan for ethic cleansing and seizure of land is a war crime and violation of international law.

So how quickly will 3rd party brokers step up to circumvent the tariffs? Hypothetical, Mexico sells to Japan, Japan takes a 25% commission and sells to US. We pay 25% more but the Treasury doesn’t collect a penny in tariff revenue.

More precisely, ATC asked the helo pilot if he saw the approaching aircraft. The pilot replied affirmatively. Hardly a warning. More like business as usual at any U.S. airport

upstategerry.bsky.social @upstategerry.bsky.social · 31/01/2025

ATC informed the Army pilots. No one panicked and gave a warning. More crappy NY Times reporting.

upstategerry.bsky.social @upstategerry.bsky.social · 31/01/2025

The NY Times is becoming the Daily News without the snappy headlines. Today they write that clues are emerging about lax air safety leading to the DCA crash. Clues only to those who are not aircraft accident reconstruction experts. Correlation does not imply causation. Do better NYT.

But none of this eliminates the separation of powers issue and the fact that SCOTUS has ruled that impoundment by the executive branch is unconstitutional. This is far from over.
