Better yet first clarify the matter of who actually PAID the money for the tariffs. A lot of Americans seem to think other countries have.
Then find out where it went.

the US treasury has collected almost 1 billion in tariffs so far. Correct me if I'm wrong. But for the most part, isn't that money paid for by Americans on goods received, rather than the importing country? Therfore wouldn't that mean it's money taken from its own citizens, not other countries

JD Vance @JDVance • 1d I'd love to hear an argument for why Powell cut rates 50 points right before an election but can't do it now with inflation lower. 013.3K t731.7K ©216K 19.9M 2 2 • 13.3K Human®= @4HumanUnity Subscribe Replying to @JDVance Thought you'd never ask, JD. In 2024, inflation was falling, Powell cut. Now, Trump's tariffs are set to spike prices. Cutting now risks blowing it all up. This isn't politics, it's prevention. Powell's not late. He's the only adult left in the room, so, sit down. Let the adults handle this. Thank you.

Spot on. This is the clearest explanation I’ve seen. It ‘s relatable, and humanizes the issue in a way everyone can understand.

I'm wondering if the whole thing is a scam to force farmers to sell. They could be bought up by those billionaire owned factory farms . . .just a thought

I'm 🤔 wondering if the return of the measles, after it was pretty much successfully eradicated, it God's way of culling stupid people

I think it's hilarious that Trump chickened out and used Iran as an excuse to run home before Zelensky arrived (doesn't he have internet?). He couldn't face being in another country, surrounded by all those he has maligned and bad mouthed, alone without his maga bullies to back him up.

Very good point, do we grant them full "province" status, or add them to Manitoba. That would give Manitoba access to the great lakes 🤔

Another reason why California, WA and Oregon should become the 11th Canadian province. (Said ironically 😆)

Did you know

I wonder how long it will be before US students are banned from studying internationally by this administration 🤔

"Prime Minister Mark Carney signalled he hopes Canada will be able to sign on to a major European defence rearmament plan by July 1, a step toward reducing the country's dependency on the United States for weapons and munitions."
Doesn't sound anything like joining Trump's "GoldenDome" anytime soon

As a news junkie, l found it interesting that the coverage of King Charles opening Canada's Parliament today, was reported in this order:
CBC (Canada)Leading Story
The Guardian (UK) -2nd Top Story
Al Jezeera (Arabic)- 5th -Top Story
The New York Times -Nothing . l guess they are "following orders"

Do you really believe there will be midterms? Or even another election? I hope I'm wrong, but I'm not optimistic 😕 😢 😞

Lovely surprise today! A friend let me know that the Federation of Canadian Artists is using my "Reminiscence" painting of Ballet slippers to advertise its upcoming Calendar competition and exhibition.

As an artist myself, I was torn between being extremely indignant and laughing myself silly, when Trump today referred to himself as "and artist"

CONGRATULATIONS AUSTRALIA!

What neighborhood does Polievre live in that is so badly riddled with crime, that people are afraid to leave their homes, murderers running free, drug infested, illegal guns everywhere? What a fear mongerer

In 1880, Irish tenants created a powerful weapon without violence: complete social isolation of their landlord's agent. When Charles Boycott refused their request for lower rent, no one would work, trade, or even deliver his mail. His name became the word we use today. Picture of men with top hats, circa 1880 walking on road.

Mark Carney jokes about sending Danielle Smith onto Fox News

Loved my time in Port Townsend. I miss it.

Prime Minister Mark Carney gets called "Big Daddy" during Scarborough speech

Next time Danielle Smith starts crying the blues on how mean the rest of Canada is too Alberta, think of this.
