If Trump is considering re-opening Alcatraz, maybe he can do even worse and re-open Andersonville!

Can we stop calling these atrocities "deportations." These people sold to El Salvadorian prisons were not deported. Deportation is a process that did not take place. They were rounded up and removed with no process. They were kidnapped, not deported.

As the economic news keeps coming out over the coming weeks keep one thing in mind: this is the fault of one man and didn’t need to happen.

I am always surprised when Trump repeats TODAY on Air Force 1, that he ‘collected $100’s of millions from China with tariffs’ his first term. When America places tariffs on imports, Americans pay to compensate importers on this TAX in the form of higher prices. The Chinese didn’t pay a red nickel!

Has anyone considered emigration to Canada? How difficult is it? Can Americans purchase or invest in a Canadian business to become a permanent resident?

The new American strategy for Ukraine is classical “rape and pillage”. Russia does the raping and America the pillaging.

If one was nuts, one could suspect that somehow the dismantling of our government is being done by a foreign agent weakening our nation prior to a more open assault. But that is a crazy idea…or is it?

Thinking of something positive about this President, on a variation of an old and tired joke, if your doctor gives you a diagnosis that gives you a ‘limited time to live’ at least the next four years will feel like forever.

While in general prudent, I think eliminating the penny will result in prices being raised to the nearest nickel. Could be inflationary!

I think Fort Hitler might be a good name for an American base as well to be named after American Naval decorated WW2 sailor William Patrick Hitler who really was Adolf Hitler’s nephew.
Would be another amazing coincidence!

It is one of the most amazing coincidences that in renaming Fort Liberty back to Fort Bragg it isn’t really restoring the Confederate General’s name to the Fort, but rather honoring Private Bragg a WW2 decorated soldier.

The ‘other foot’ is coming down. After our tariffs raise prices for our consumers reigniting inflation for us, their retaliatory tariffs raise prices for THEIR consumers penalizing OUR exports.
This reduces our sales and may cost our jobs as business slows.

Even the media confuses Americans when saying tariffs are “on” China, Mexico, or Canada.
In reality all of Trump’s tariffs are on US not THEM!
Tariffs are paid by importers who pass on the higher costs ultimately to consumers in AMERICA. The use of tariffs raise prices domestically. Inflation!
