I work in a small manufacturing company. One of our primary components comes from Japan. There was a tariff fee of $4000 on our latest order which was invoiced to us. Now we get to add that cost into the cost that we charge customers. Exactly how is Japan paying these tariffs?
GEIST: Do you think tariffs help or hurt prices for consumers in this country?
BESSENT: I think tariffs help consumers
GEIST: Do you believe tariffs are a tax on consumers?
BESSENT: I do not believe tariffs are a tax on consumers

This is a disturbing thread. Imagine any previous president--hell--any human being at all doing this. It's a cult.
WHY DOESN’T *EVERYBODY* SEE HOW FUCKING WEIRD THIS IS?!?
Lutnick: "I'd like to thank you President Trump. It is the greatest honor to work for you, to be with you, to carry your name, your leadership, and your flag throughout the world ... I know him as the smartest, most thoughtful, and most intuitive person I've ever met."

As someone who is currently in the process of finding a new plan, I can tell you that it doesn't feel good, I'm not happy, and frankly, it fucking sucks. Also, I am fully employed.
Trump: "I want the money to go into an account for people where they buy their own health insurance. It's so good. The insurance will be better. It'll cost less. Everybody is gonna be happy. They're gonna feel like entrepreneurs. They're actually able to go out & negotiate their own insurance"

Is this the new manifesting technique? Visualize the prices going down and they'll go down.
INGRAHAM: Is affordability a voter perception issue of the economy, or is there more that needs to be done by Republicans?
TRUMP: More than anything else, it's a con job by the Democrats. Are you ready? Costs are way down.

Found the tweet that Joyce Carol Oates bodied Elon Musk with and it's so beautiful in its eloquent, simple take down. So much so he's crashing out trying to prove he reads books now. Put this in the Louvre.

BARTIROMO: How do you want this to play out once the ACA subsidies expire?
DR OZ: We have lots of great ideas, but I don't want to show our cards. As the president often says, why would I telegraph to you what we're gonna do?

Congress will approve subsidies to the insurance companies in order to cover the losses from the people who can't afford to pay for health insurance.

Where do you stand on keeping Chuck Schumer as party leader after last night? It's been confirmed by his office and Sen Shaheen that the leader was well aware of the plan and allowed it to happen. Your answer to this question determines if you get my vote or not.

Senator Schumer is really Darth Sidious.
Schumer: "People who already blame us for the shutdown will continue to blame us for the shutdown. We must give in."
MSNBC reported Schumer's office felt that the longer that shutdown went on, the more likely it was that people would start to blame the Dems.
My kingdom for Democrats that don't govern out of fear. I've said it before and I'll say it again: The American people are far braver than their reps.

Thanks, @kaine.senate.gov, for getting all those poor, helpless Republicans off the hook and selling your constituents out for the promise of an ACA vote that will fail miserably. Traitor.
