Bipartisan Bill to Give Congress More Power Over Tariffs

Booo! Hiss!

The American people elected Hair Furor, so we should get all that comes along with it.

Democracy is the theory that the common people know what they want, and deserve to get it good and hard.

Trump drops bribery charges against Adams in exchange for Adams doing as Trump commands on immigration.

I'm just happy that Adams has learned his lesson.

wtf is wrong with you?

Some folks think that the multi-millennia-old conflict over who inhabits a chunk of land the size of New Jersey half a world away is the biggest problem our nation faces. If they whine long enough it will definitely get resolved.

Totally inapplicable to the stock market crash that Trump is blatantly intentionally causing.

How to make money by manipulating stocks:

To make money by manipulating stocks:
Spread false or misleading information about a company to influence its stock price.
Utilize insider information to create false ups and downs in stock prices for profit.

Note: Engaging in stock manipulation is illegal and unethical, and can lead to severe legal consequences. Always consider the risks involved before attempting to manipulate stocks [unless you are President and have unlimited pardoning power and the entire federal government under your thumb because the GOP loves and/or fears you].

#4 Most likely because HE SAID, "I firmly believe that this city is better served by truly independent leadership, not leaders pulled at by the extremists at the far left or the far right, but instead those rooted in the common middle, the place where the vast majority of New Yorkers are firmly planted"

Nothing says "common middle" quite like hanging with Trump, kissing his butt, and Trump's DOJ dropping federal fraud and bribery charges in a quid pro quo deal selling his official acts as mayor. A real man of the middle!

C'mon guys. I get the implications and down sides, but are we really going to get all weepy eyed that the US isn't supplying AS MANY weapons to the world?
It's good that the Europeans are becoming more self-sufficient, given the GOP's betrayal of international alliances close to or exceeding a century.

Our status as the world's largest arms dealer isn't exactly a good thing...

One of the alternative outcomes is Russia and China assuming that role. As you said, there are implications and downsides, and I regard that as a pretty big one.

Trump Tariffs Hit Island Only Inhabited by Penguins

Scatter boys! The jig is up!

The criminal case compelled Adams to leave the Dems to become an independent?

Why not the GOP? Their leader and Orange Messiah (PBUH) is a 34-time convicted felon and adjudicated rapist. Adams would have fit right in.

I'm done with the tongue bathing, post yer tribute song!

Elon Musk dramatically steps down from DOGE in shock move after Trump expressed private doubts

Aww .. he should have done it yesterday, calling a press conference, announcing "I quit" and then left without taking questions.

Would have left us wondering if it was an April Fools' Day gag. One last troll before he goose stepped out of the White House.

It is nice to see some on the left demonstrate some economic sense when it comes to tariffs. I happen to agree with the criticisms of tariffs from an economic standpoint.
#13 | Posted by BellRinger

Tariffs can serve a purpose. E.g., protect fledgling domestic industries, level the playing field to compensate for foreign subsidies to their own businesses, etc.

This is just ludicrous, targeting friend and foe alike. There is only one reason for it, so Trump can manipulate the stock market and make billions shorting it.

I see blanks in the thread so that means a troll commented which I am privileged not to see.

Hi!

These make-believe numbers should definitely bring prices down.

If the Proud Boys really wanted to help out Elon, they'd buy two or three CyberYucks. Rumor has it he has more than a few to spare at the moment.

Comeon guys, the world's richest billionaire is just asking for a hand up, not a hand out!

when women are broken down into demographics the demographic the GOP has had the best recent success is married women. So, trying to put a nefarious spin on this doesn't make logical sense.

Wait till you find out how divorced women vote and the percentage of women who keep their married name post-divorce.

One day she won't be as purty.

Maybe get some tips from Empty-G on how to get by when that day comes, and cash in on that OnlyFans money while she can.

About -15% for the R candidates than elections six months ago.

Midterms can't arrive soon enough to rid ourselves of the House MAGAts.

"In the 2024 fiscal year, the United States sold weapons, equipment, and defense services worth a record $318.7 billion. This marked an approximately 28 percent increase compared to 2023."

Destroying record sales made possible by the Biden administration. Good job MAGAts!

Fortunately for America the Constitution rules it out.

It was my understanding that someone who was ineligible to run for POTUS was also ineligible to run as VP.
