While Trump plays trade war like he’s holding all the cards, our executives are coming back from China terrified.
They’re walking through “dark factories” where robots run the show so efficiently the lights don’t even need to be on.

DOGE scrubbed a long-dead contract from its site—the same place it’s been posting phony “receipts” to fake success.
Do they not understand how government works, or are they lying to the public?
My opinion: These aren’t mistakes. They’re trying to dupe us.
