TACO Trump got played.
In Twist, U.S. Diplomacy Served as Cover for Israeli Surprise Attack - The Wall Street Journal
This was previously shared by our new Pope Leo XIV on his social media feeds. Itβs worth a re-share.

The reality is when you eliminate cheap labor (immigrants), and couple that with higher cost of goods (tariffs), you are creating an environment ripe for inflation.
Replacing Powell because he wonβt drop rates, is like pouring gasoline on the inflation fire.
So basically we are trading medicines for the poor, for weapons of war.
It was never really about cutting government spending or balancing the budget.

Trump: Hold my beerβ¦
The pee-pee tape is real. Putin owns Trump.

Trump fundamentally does not understand what trade is. We do not subsidize Canada, we buy their goods.
This is like saying if we stay at Trumpβs hotel, we are subsidizing Trump.
Confirming Hegseth is like promoting a McDonalds store manager that sexually harasses employees, is habitually late because they were out drinking, and making them CEO.

1. Gerrymander California to take the House away from the GOP.
2. Federal payments should be net-neutral, this will bankrupt several red states.
3. Use the savings for universal healthcare and free college tuition.
Californiaβs economy is heavily reliant on migrant workers to keep farming production high and prices low. This is one of the major reasons Trump is threatening the state.

24.01.2025 19:09 β π 2 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0California has some of the most competitive districts in America, avoiding heavy Gerrymandering, unlike most Southern States. If Trump wants to play hardball with California, gloves should come off.
By redrawing their maps California could single handedly take away the GOP majority in the House.
California pays almost $82 billion more in taxes than it receives back from the federal government. For years almost every natural disaster in Red States have been subsidized by California. The GOP should be careful who they are poking.
24.01.2025 18:53 β π 52 π 11 π¬ 3 π 2In 2020 Trump issued an executive order banning TikTok.
The courts overturned saying he overstepped.
In 2024 the GOP tried again to ban TikTok since college kids used it to get unfiltered election information.
Trump wins and now pivots to support TikTok acting like he supported the entire time.
Trump trying to act like the savior of TikTok through a potential executive order is ironic, since he tried to ban it four years prior with an executive order.

Trump decides to move his inauguration indoors because of βweatherβ.
Uh, huhβ¦.riiiiight.
Trump is claiming he is taking over a disastrous economy and a failing United States. Maybe he is confusing now with four years ago.

Is the long term idea to have them become susceptible to control by the US? Kind of like a land grab like he sees his buddy Putin do?
What did Musk get for his investment?
- Tariffs on China, Mexico, Canada to reduce Tesla competition
- Military contracts for Starlink
- Federal spending on Space X
- Favorable tax policy for his industries
- Power over a weak president and influence with Russia

US spends double every other industrialized nation as a % of GDP on healthcare, has lower life expectancy, with 30 million people lacking any coverage.
Republicans know the problem, but the insurance companies and pharma line their pockets.
Im sure Republicans will try to use this. I hope they do. It will open up the door to remind America how Donald Trump abused the pardoning power for political favors, some of which went back to jail committing more crimes.

My newest theory:
Tariffs are passed. Companies see their sales decline passing on tariffs, or profits fall if absorbed. This leads to their value (stocks) falling.
Investors move their money to a crypto grift, with no financial backing, driven by pure speculation, with Trump releasing coins.
Even better. Your entire computer is made from parts from overseas. The price of that computer will go up if tariffs are passed.
