"and a substantially lowered Reciprocal Tariff during this period, of 10%, also effective immediately." So... the tariffs were raised high, then >75 nations agreed to negotiate/kill their tariffs, so Trump agreed to lower all tariffs to 10% for 90 days. LOL. He always wanted 10%. Now he gets it and they are thanking him! It's like a store jacking up the prices, and then having a sale while the sale price is still 10% above the original price. I love this President.
I had a 'talk' with grok and there was a big difference between if DOGE cuts $1T or $2T. At $1T, it has the deficit at a normal % of GDP by 2061 (we'd be running a surplus by 2029) and income tax phased out over 10 years starting in 2029.
The $2T pipe dream that Elon initially said and backed down from (but maybe secretly still desires), changes this drastically. Income taxes can be phased out over 15 years starting immediately and with a budget surplus starting next year.
I don't have high hopes over any long term planning longer than a presidential term, but with Trump possibly running again (which will explode the few remaining lib heads) and with JD Vance's 8 years, Barron should be ready by then!
I think I understand what you're saying. Like, soft on crime leads to more crime (ex/ kalifornia). Giuliani was successful in fighting nyc crime by a zero tolerance even against petty crime - jumping the turnstile, graffiti, marijuana selling, etc.
In the left's way of thinking, if this killer is treated with kid gloves and worshiped like a hero, they would think killing Elon would be treated the same. Kid gloves and treated like a hero. Then next will be Trump, JD, Bongino, Kash, and on and on. Maybe even if you, God forbid, drove a Tesla, you could be a target too. (You=meaning any person)
I don't get involved in the nitty gritty of how things get done (if they ever do) in DC, but I know if someone is in charge of an agency, it takes awhile to get YOUR foot soldiers in and the enemy's out. Seeing how they are going after him with the blackmail rumor just shows how afraid they are. He was sworn in roughly 6 weeks ago.
That's my initial thought, unless it was a planted 'leak' to find the leaker. So, either they will easily catch the leaker or not easily. I guess it's possible that it was no leaker involved and the white house put the story out to see the reaction of the public. Or the media just made crap up like they always do.
The web has many articles about how Russell Brand fell for a hoax. I'd like to see where this is in the released files, if it's there. Probably not. Shows the dangers of Russell accepting 2nd hand info when he could just go to the source.
Definitely agree with these people possibly being part of the Q team, but I'm pretty sure it's a team. I lean towards mostly military, so Flynn would be near the top. And if we are including presumably 'dead' people, I would include JFK, Jr. on the list. Some retired Generals who were mentioned in the early days possibly too.
Douchebag kinzinger doesn't know the difference between a boycott and terrorist acts. Firebombing dealerships, damaging personal property, threatening lives, physical assaults, racketeering (extortion to lower the stock price while shorting), slander against Americans you disagree with, is not the same as not buying a beer.
https://x.com/wajacobson/status/1903071697617527033 This lawyer quit her firm saying they are bowing down to pressure by Trump against DEI policies. https://www.businessinsider.com/skadden-lawyer-resigns-firms-response-to-trump-paul-weiss-2025-3 I call this more WINNING.
Here is CNN rooting for its demise in October... https://www.cnn.com/2024/10/02/business/elon-musk-twitter-x-fidelity/index.html
Oh, and he did it with only 38% of the 'workers' that were there when he bought it. A lean mean fighting machine.
I'm curious to see if Roberts does anything to facilitate this. Rumors were that he was compromised possibly related to Epstein.
