What some people aren’t factoring into their analysis is the reality that companies were buying tons of inventory to beat the tariffs.
That’s cash taken from being able to invest or hire. In fact the probably cut costs and jobs as a result.

Once you get into business with the Mob, you can never get out.
Donald Trump knows that he owns these cowardly law firms. Here are a few recommendations:
Paul Weiss can litigate to bring children back in the mines.
Milbank can challenge clean air rules.
Willkie Farr can lead on spoiling the water.
Skadden is perfect to break the unions.
Shameful all.

Trump announced that as part of tens of millions of dollars of pro bono services law firms will be providing to him as a result of his shakedowns, law firms will work with coal companies on "leasing and other things"

A US-born citizen was walking near Chicago in January. ICE snatched him off the street, handcuffed him, threw into a van. His wallet, which contained his ID, was confiscated. He was detained for 10 hours before being released without a record of what occurred.

DOGE: Fake Savings
Elon’s DOGE keeps claiming savings and taking credit for canceling contracts that ended years ago.
🔘 Canceled a 2005 Coast Guard contract—but it ended two decades ago. Claimed $53.7M in “savings.”
🔘 Canceled a $14M contract that ended in 2021.
This isn’t savings—it’s fraud.
