A great way to get more foreign tourists to America. Of course, Florida gets no foreign tourists, right?

I wish it were the case that only MAGAs saw their IRAs and 401ks liberated from a lot of value yesterday.
Of course that is not the case and a lot of people's retirement has been damaged.
I'm very happy I sold all my stocks in my IRA a month ago. None of the value of my IRA was liberated.

It is only going to get worse. I truly believe this is a test for imprisoning "the enemies within."
This keeps getting worse and worse.

Trump at the DOJ: "I believe that CNN and MSNDC, who literally write 97.6% bad about me, are political arms of the Democrat Party. And in my opinion, they are really corrupt and they are illegal. What they do is illegal."

Elon Musk says he wants to “eliminate” programs like Social Security and Medicare: “Entitlements... That’s the big one to eliminate”

Trump/Musk did this and it will only go down. I sold all my stock in my IRA last week.
Is this what they meant by a Red Wave?

Let us thank the Musk/Trump administration for this.

“If you are calling about a disability application due to staffing reductions, our average processing time for disability applications is 200 to 230 days.

The estimated hold time is greater than 120 minutes”

This is why we are in very serious trouble.
Garry Kasparov is right, I’m afraid: they are breaking everything so quickly even though it’s unpopular, because they never expect to face real elections again.

#boycott
I honored the boycott today. On my Friday bike ride, we had lunch at a local pizza place.

I have no idea what it was like at the big corporate stores?

Do you have any experiences?
