THIS IS WHAT THE US SHOULD BE DOING

https://www.nationalreview.com/2025/04/somehow-the-worlds-fiscal-role-models-are-now-greece-and-argentina/

The only thing this article speaks about is the deficit. We agree on that 100%!! Unfortunately, neither party has the will to fix it. You know where this has to go; however, I've advocated to start somewhere. That somewhere is not going to happen.

No will, no way…

That's the reason to accumulate physical precious metals. The whole world, especially outside North America, is doing just that because they know where this is going. North American investors are just now starting to get a clue.

one thing Trump was doing over the weekend was a very long session with a handful of US Senators brought in from recess to discuss plans for the Federal Reserve.

Draining that swamp

I'm sure it's just a coincidence that the Trump family is all in on crypto and all of Trump's policies (extreme deficit spending, tariff/ICE-induced stagflation, delegitimizing the Fed, etc) seem determined to destroy the U.S. dollar.

I actually think it's a coincidence. The policy thinking isn't that deep

Who cares? I hope it was for spite to the leftist in Colorado. Elections have consequences, right?

BTW, no offense to you, but if you think I consider someone, like you, to be a deep thinker, then sorry…. That's not saying you are dumb; rather, making comments like that says more about you, than the Trump admin.

BTW..

Huntsville, Alabama, conducts research primarily focused on aerospace, defense, and biotechnology, driven by key institutions like NASA's Marshall Space Flight Center, the U.S. Army, and the HudsonAlpha Institute for Biotechnology. Research areas include propulsion systems, space systems, unmanned aerial systems, cybersecurity, genomics,and advanced manufacturing. This diverse scientific landscape is supported by Cummings Research Park and facilities like the University of Alabama in Huntsville (UAH).


Yeah who should care that's Trump's enriched himself and his family to the tune of hundreds of millions or billions via a completely untraceable way to be bribed by foreign bad actors?

It's long past time for the reality TV political nihilism era to be over.


"untraceable way to be bribed by foreign bad actors"…not this nonsense again? This is so 2016…get some new material.

Tongue in cheek is yet another lie. Zero integrity.

Also, the "blathering and main character at all times" nonsense is more TDS, and is quite simply stupidity. He's the president of the United States. He IS the main character, snowflake. Get over it. 3 more years!!!


LOLOL. There's never been a better example of a blatherer. He talks errrr... "weaves" constantly.

And yes he's a former reality TV star narcissist that clearly craves attention and has to have minions fawning over him at all times. You know, like every other past President.

That's his appeal to 40% of the country. It's hilarious that you continue to try to make him out to be some typical President that's just the victim of skewed perception.

So yeah, it's notable when he shuts up for a half-second and avoids the spotlight because he never does that. It's not in his DNA.

Civ, your lack of recognition that Biden had severe cognitive issues is telling. People talked about it because of his apparent decline. It was people like you that denied it all. None of what people were saying was tongue in cheek, man. It was real!!

So, your so-called tongue in cheek comment was your 100% desire to be in this "cult of personality" despising Trump!

I have no idea where Trump was, over the weekend, and I really don't care. Hell, I was enjoying Labor Day weekend, at my beach house. Perhaps, he was doing the same thing??


And Trump seems like someone who's in prime physical and mental health?

I said Biden wasn't a drooling invalid like the right made him out to be with ever shuffle-step or gaffe and that all the breathless "WHO IS RUNNING THE COUNTRY?!?" hyperventilating was overblown. I didn't say he was on the cusp of joining Mensa or competing in Ironman.

Trump hasn't been in front of a TV camera in a week. Let's not pretend that's normal for that guy, or that the right wouldn't have been standing on their head if the situation was reversed.

#Sieve, you are corrrect. Americans don't like Trump and his new Republican Party. You are all over it, my man! LMAO ...

Hey #Sieve., there won't be a viable Democrat Party in 2028 after the full truth is revealed. Elections won't be stolen in 2026 either ;-)

Yesterday, our Supply Chain team did an impact study of tariffs on the company. The presentation was very extensive, without a political agenda.

The bad news:

The importer, that helps us process our goods, gave us new news on a large category of products that will have an effect. Initially, we didn't think this was going to happen; however, after the thorough review, we will be impacted.

We don't have a plan yet.

The interesting news:

They were able to break down all the impacts of the Tariffs and provide us with the what, where, how, and why. What I noticed, from this presentation, was the targeted and specific rational for all the tariffs.

My statement is not to pursued people in to liking the tariffs; rather, to learn more about the tariffs before speaking about them. Meaning, too many people are saying things like: Trump is just throwing tariffs out in a Willy nilly manner, without any plan.

You may not like them; however, to criticize how they are being distributed is being very naive.. I saw a clear plan of attack with these tariffs, to satisfy his agenda.

Again, this presentation didn't speak from a political perspective; rather, from a factual one…. As you know, I support the tariffs and was able to see clearly the plan.

If you add up all of the time Biden spent answering questions (as opposed to reading scripted answers to prearranged questions) during his term in office, it wouldn't be "a couple of hours".

My statement is not to pursued people in to liking the tariffs; rather, to learn more about the tariffs before speaking about them. Meaning, too many people are saying things like: Trump is just throwing tariffs out in a Willy nilly manner, without any plan.

You may not like them; however, to criticize how they are being distributed is being very naive.. I saw a clear plan of attack with these tariffs, to satisfy his agenda.

Again, this presentation didn't speak from a political perspective; rather, from a factual one…. As you know, I support the tariffs and was able to see clearly the plan.

Care to elaborate on this plan of attack that you've seen so clearly?


Go read for yourself…

Yesterday, our Supply Chain team did an impact study of tariffs on the company. The presentation was very extensive, without a political agenda.

The bad news:

The importer, that helps us process our goods, gave us new news on a large category of products that will have an effect. Initially, we didn't think this was going to happen; however, after the thorough review, we will be impacted.

We don't have a plan yet.

The interesting news:

They were able to break down all the impacts of the Tariffs and provide us with the what, where, how, and why. What I noticed, from this presentation, was the targeted and specific rational for all the tariffs.

great post, I don't agree with the clear plan of track though, but we've discussed that.

I understand we disagree. That's ok! I've really been strugling on these tariffs as I certainly didn't understand how they were being implemented; so, when someone makes a negative comment, I really couldn't express myself with confidence. After getting the presentation, I fully see why certain tariffs have been done. Now, this didn't cover any political motivation; rather, this tariff was added for this trade reason.
