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.

A much more vicious variation of the Covid Mass formation psychosis ?

"I took the liberty of translating this Tweet of an Israeli explaining why the country is going down the tubes and he is leaving. A must read for what is going on there:

For two years I’ve watched my country commit one atrocity after another, and I’ve seen how everyone around me disappoints, stays silent, takes part, buys the lies. They refuse to oppose in any real way. It’s not the right-wing that broke me, not the Bibi supporters or the settler Judeo-Nazis. They’re monsters, but I already knew that.

It’s all the people I thought were on my side who have shown me that actually we live on a completely different planet of values, faith, and perception of reality.

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.
