Can Tariffs Actually Work?
YouTube video by Economics Explained Can Tariffs Actually Work?

I urge you all to watch this vid for a well rounded explanation on how tariffs actually work. It's done by an Aussie economist (so therefore, doesn't have any dogs in the fight going on here, but who knows - might eventually with the way Trump is going).

USAID.gov is down. Why is this concerning? Trump has no legal authority to eliminate a congressionally funded independent agency. The work of USAID is vital, and if this can happen to them, it can happen to any of us.

I'm beyond disappointed in their bootlicking. We were pretty staunch Target shoppers before (we even have a Target Red Card). I expected this crap from somewhere like Hy-Vee and Walmart, but not Target. πŸ˜“

Trump re-enacts policy banning aid to groups abroad that discuss or provide abortions The Mexico City Policy cuts off U.S. aid to health groups in other countries that offer abortion services or counseling. As in 2021, Trump has reinstated this policy, which was deactivated by Biden.

Elected officials should not be interfering in personal medical decisions, in this country or anywhere in the world – period.

I saw footage of Mr. Vistisen saying this and it's one of my favorite things I've watched in the past few months. πŸ˜† Props to him! I'm not sure why Greenland would want to join in our misery anyway.
