Very useful chart from Berenberg - the blue bars are the tariffs that could be removed if the US Supreme Court strikes down Trump's emergency tariffs (though the White House could well respond by using other tariff legislation to try to re-impose them)

In my latest Legion Magazine article - the first of two parts - I interview British historian and author Stephen Fisher (@seaspitfires.com) about the forgotten Canadians who fought not at Juno, but Sword Beach on D-Day, June 6, 1944.

At the abbaye d'ardenne Kurt Meyer and his SS thugs murdered young Canadian soldiers. But the local people turned it into a shrine.They never forgot their sacrifice.
I was honoured to lay a wreathe to those young men.
We will always remember those who stood up to fascist hate.

The paradox of accelerated recruitment for ICE and CBP that supposedly will make America safer is that with lower standards and fewer checks it leaves key parts of the American security state wide open to infiltration and subversion by enormously wealthy drug cartels.
