A thought. After watching a lot of Trump the last few days, it’s become somewhat obvious he doesn’t understand how tariffs work, including the fundamental principle that any payment of tariffs occurs at the import barriers by the importer.

It seems he thinks they’re paid by the manufacturer.

Obviously the cost of “tarrifing” is achievable only by each level of the product distribution applying that cost.

There’s also this declaration of cartels as terrorist organisation’s. It doesn’t mean much as the idea of conducting kinetic operations in Mexico without them being viewed as the tip of the spear, will cause a blowback effect of cartel members in the USA conducting coordinated attacks.

I guess you could always just pump hellfire missiles into “threats” as they head to the airport.

Polish MP mocks Tusk for ‘most spectacular self-castration in history’

> Addressing parliament on Thursday, Mejza, an independent MP who was previously part of the PiS faction, claimed Tusk tried to become a Soviet-style dictator but ended up as a “Ceausescu from Temu,” referring to Romania’s former communist leader and a Chinese online discounter.

> “You have accomplished the greatest logistical feat in world history: Overnight, you moved Poland from Central Europe to Central Africa,” Mejza said.

> He went on to call Tusk’s actions “the most spectacular castration in history, because you staged a coup d’état and simultaneously stripped yourself of your manhood and any shred of honor,” warning the prime minister that the “time of reckoning will come, sooner than you think.”

A quick commentary on the "Piss Summit"

I might not be able to upload much more or do lives for a while

My Fellow Duranianss.

Yes, it's happened again. I have been assaulted by a vicious Malware Bot Virus or whatever 911 Socks is and this thing is bad !

However I wanted to give you a "peace" of my mind concerning the "Piece" or piss, as Elensky calls it, as this thing fell to pieces before it even happened.

Coincidentally on the very SAME DAY this crap happened Saudi Arabia DROPPED the US Petrodollar as a buying currency and NO ONE absolutely NO ONE is talking about this fact anywhere !!!

Hope to see you all asap.
