"Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent indicated that consumers and businesses would likely not receive refunds.
Bessent characterized the potential $134B-$170B in refunds as 'ultimate corporate welfare'."

(Don't believe for one second that corporations won't receive refunds.)

While the ruling focused on tariffs, reports mentioned the Trump regime was considering 25% tariffs on countries importing oil from Iran.
After a year SCOTUS finally struck down Trump's tariffs, just in time for oil prices to rise from his attacks on Iran.
Those spikes will be passed to consumers.

"That's the way it is" The last time Donald Trump bombed Iran, it was such a nonevent and ended so quickly that a lot of Americans still don’t know it happened. But now, with his poll numbers at an all time low, his State o...

"..With his poll numbers at an all time low, his State of the Union having flopped, questions about his health and senility mounting, his SAVE Act having flopped, and his Jeffrey Epstein scandal refusing to go away, Trump decided to just go for it"

The Austin nightclub was reportedly a naturalized U.S. citizen from Senegal. Had to confirm Diagne's motivation because the Trump regime automatically rubberstamps immigrant persons of color as terrorists, with and without a blue-ink Magic Marker.

"Larijani accused the U.S. and Israel of seeking to 'plunder and disintegrate' Iran and warned so-called 'secessionist groups' within his country."

Defiant Khamenei loyalist blasts Trump's 'delusional fantasies' Ali Larijani, a close loyalist of slain Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, has announced the formation of a temporary leadership council following the airstrike that killed Iran's top leader.

A veteran powerbroker loyal to Iran's slain Supreme Leader has ripped Trump's 'delusional fantasies' and warned the US that he is not willing to negotiate.

Iran's new leader says they will not negotiate and mocks Trump's America First as Israel First

FBI probing whether Iran attack motivated Austin shooter who killed 2 Authorities are investigating whether the shooter who killed 2 people and wounded 14 others was motivated by the U.S. attack on Iran.

Ndiaga Diagne, 52, opened fire at a popular Austin nightspot early Sunday. He was wearing a shirt that said, "Property of Allah" and depicted the Iranian flag, people familiar with the matter said.

Which means they'll be doubly reimbursed.

I agree, and the same goes for Trump's demand for IQ tests to vote. Look how the GOP base turned on their representatives when their healthcare benefits were cut by Trump's Big, Ugly Transfer of Wealth from the 99% to the 1%. The motto followed by fascists is when you're in a hole, keep digging.

In a major loss for Trump, John Thune declared the ‘talking filibuster’ for the SAVE Act dead. Almost immediately, WaPo published an article sounding the alarm that the Trump regime drafted an EO to declare a national emergency to take control of 2026 elections. www.palmerreport.com/politics/maj...

SOCIAL MEDIA: "And he called the soldiers who got killed "patriots". But he calls the people who survive "cowards". Partying with Vanilla Ice and strippers is more important to him than World War III."

Critics argue that the optics look bad. Trump celebrating or fundraising while a full-blown military offensive is unfolding isn’t going to go down well with many Americans.

Republican-owned corporations have monopolies on America's food supply and they've privatized drinking water. You don't operate on levels of this magnitude unless you have something nefarious in mind. Nazis starved and deprived Jews of water before gas chambers were used for faster results.

In 2011, Trump proclaimed, “Our President [Obama] will start a war with Iran because he has absolutely no ability to negotiate. He’s weak and he’s ineffective, so the only way he figures that he’s going to get reelected … is to start a war with Iran.”

"There is an election in Texas on Tuesday. What better way to distract from the coming disastrous news coming from that election. Cornyn may pull off a victory in the battle, but he may not get the 50% plus one to win the nomination outright. We may see a runoff election"

"Good unscientific focus group of where the base and broader public are. Just no energy on the Iran issue at all — not for, not against, just public is not focused/engaged on this like the chattering class in WDC and NY are."

"Not sure what to make of this. I just got off the air from 3 hours of radio hosting @BreitbartNews Saturday on @SiriusXMPatriot and we had basically zero callers on Iran strikes. The public isn’t very interested in this right now — far more focused on economy, immigration, election integrity."
