What #Trump is doing with the #Tariffs is another grift, yeah, maybe the largest one in world history. It's the opposite of a #PumpAndDump, they are wrecking the entire market and economy, top to bottom, so they can pick up every corporation, business, asset, property, farm, home in America at rockbottom prices, then lift the tarriffs and reap the profits. It's more like a giant #Pottersville.
At that point they have no need for laws, just private armies to enforce their decrees.

NEW SUBSTACK (Check it out/Subscribe!): A moment that defines our time. From Trump’s aggressive lying to the lack of pushback/weakness from Terry Moran & ABC’s corporate entanglements.

Whether the tariffs happen or not, the damage is done. The national response seems to be to strengthen internal trade and reliance, as well as trade with other countries. There is no way to stop an anti-US sentiment in this country after this.
We will, of course, still buy from the US, but we will put more focus on buying from other countries and selling to other countries.
The consequences of this breach of trust and betrayal will last a long time
A close look at Nike’s massive supply chain offers a case study in the possible ripple effects of the escalating global trade war and shows how vulnerable factory workers could get squeezed.

Tariffs just got real: our first $36K bill with 125% + 20% + 25% markup hits hard 💸. These are upfront costs - due before selling a single unit - causing serious cash flow strain, price increases, read more! 📦 http://adafruit.com/tariffbill
The good angel on my shoulder hates to see this and feels for these people.
The bad, pissed off vindictive devil on the other shoulder is LMAO and screaming You did this to yourselves SUCKERS!
REMEMBER: THE PURPOSE OF THE TARIFFS IS TO DESTROY THE ECONOMIES OF RUSSIA'S ENEMIES
Hello #fediverse - this is GBH #News bringing you the world from #Boston. It's 38F at Logan Airport and visibility is 10mi.
The Trump administration slapped #tariffs on Canada, Mexico, and China; Mexico has reached a deal to delay them.
Secretary of State Marco Rubio says he's now acting director of USAID, an agency Elon Musk targeted for closure.
Bankrupt hospital chain #Steward is demanding a Mass. food security program give back $100k the company gave them.
As boring as this topic may be and resentful as we may be that this man continues dominating news cycles, it's impossible to avoid either, because the damage is ongoing.

"The stock market continued to fall today. The Dow Jones Industrial Average fell another 478 points, or 1.14%; the S&P 500 fell almost 0.8%; & the Nasdaq Composite fell almost 0.2%."

特朗普试图通过残暴的关税来实现美国的再工业化。
他的计划很可能会彻底失败。尽管现在还不能确定，但事情绝对不是这些天里人们所谈论的那样 …

In all the talk of US trade deficits forcing Trump et al. to erect tariff barriers to "rebalance trade", we've lost or ignored the fact that the US has an enormous digital trade surplus. See, for instance, this paper Estimating digital product trade through corporate revenue data. The US's main conventional export is currently petroleum, but it exports over twice as much in digital advertising. The US's overall "digital exports" are larger than the total exports of France, which is the world's 7th leading exporter. However, these numbers are not typically included in reports about trade deficits or surpluses.

虽然有些人保持低调，祈祷着事态好转，但这是一个可怕的错误。
这场噩梦能走多远，将取决于人们现在如何开展抵抗运动。
时间过得越久，特朗普对体制的控制就越牢固，他就越有能力扩大和加强镇压。
即使仅凭特朗普草率鲁莽的政策就足以让大多数人反对他，但仅此并无法回答如何将他赶下台的问题 —— 他已经表明自己不会心甘情愿地离职。并且也无法确保他下台之后的情况能有多好 ……
这是没有办法的办法：我们必须建立强大的基层运动，通过这些运动来保护彼此，并普及对我们所面临问题的激进分析。

While instituting the largest tariff increase in modern history, Trump claimed that the income tax was passed for “reasons unknown to mankind” and caused the Great Depression.
Here’s the real history.

Politically Connected Firms Benefit From Trump Tariff Exemptions Amid Secrecy, Confusion
—
The administration’s lack of transparency about tariff exemptions has experts concerned that some firms might be winning narrow carve-outs behind closed doors. “It could be corruption, but it could just as easily be incompetence,” one lobbyist said.
