The Port of Seattle is empty of international cargo vessels. It's a ghost town. The last Chinese cargo vessel docks on the West coast on the 29th, and on the east coast around May 10th. After that, Americans will truly begin to know what scarcity is like.

It’s well known that I was on The Apprentice. We were all covered by NDAs at the time, but mine has now expired. And do I ever have some tea to spill. I’ll post it later today after consulting once again with my attorneys.

Latest in the rumor mail from DOJ is one career public integrity. Lawyer agreed to sign the motion to dismiss in order to prevent the sacking of all of their colleagues. Absolutely brutal Stalinist stuff from the new administration.

1/ ❗Really chilling.

Thanks to Sen. Mark Warner, for releasing Memo from acting deputy attorney general Emil Bove to FBI leadership ordering the purge.

-Memo is a clear abuse of power and weaponization of DOJ
-Memo bolsters FBI lawsuits filed today. VERY clear the list is for retaliatory purposes
