This seems like a good deal, 25% plus China doesn't get the top end chips (still get powerful chips, just not the most advanced).

Congress hasn't declared war since 1941. In case you don't remember, we've had several wars since then.

We've been watching this happen for years now. It's scary, but the American people don't have the fortitude to stop it. Apparently, neither do the Germans, Canadians, or Brits.

In case this hasn't been posted:

The law that would make it nearly impossible to deny asylum to Afghan refugees is the non-refoulement principle, codified in U.S. law under Section 241(b)(3) of the Immigration and Nationality Act (INA) (8 U.S.C. § 1231(b)(3)). This provision prohibits the removal (deportation) of any individual to a country where their life or freedom would be threatened on account of race, religion, nationality, membership in a particular social group, or political opinion.

Why This Makes Denial Nearly Impossible for Afghans

-Current Conditions in Afghanistan: Since the Taliban's 2021 takeover, the U.S. State Department and human rights organizations (e.g., UNHCR, Amnesty International) have documented widespread persecution, including targeted killings, torture, forced disappearances, and gender-based violence against women, ethnic minorities (e.g., Hazaras), former government officials, journalists, and those who collaborated with U.S./NATO forces. These conditions create a "well-founded fear of persecution" for the vast majority of Afghan asylum seekers, meeting the INA's refugee definition under 8 U.S.C. § 1101(a)(42).

-Legal Protections: Under § 241(b)(3), if an Afghan applicant demonstrates a credible fear of such threats (a low evidentiary threshold, often established via affidavit or basic testimony), deportation is barred unless the government proves changed country conditions or exceptions like serious criminal convictions apply. Courts have consistently upheld this as reflecting U.S. obligations under the 1951 UN Refugee Convention and 1967 Protocol, which the U.S. ratified. Denials are rare—USCIS data shows Afghan asylum approval rates exceeding 90% since 2021.

-Practical Impact: This applies to all Afghans physically present in the U.S. (including at ports of entry), regardless of entry method. Expedited processing under Operation Allies Welcome (launched 2021) further streamlines claims for evacuees, with no filing fees and priority interviews.

I DO NOT KNOW IF THIS IS THE LAW TRUMP WAS REFERRING TO.

This is just more legal nonsense. All the documentation proved there was fraud in the business and his brother had his name all over. The one they tried, the actual owner did not, even though he was spending money like a king. Had they taken the time to show the money from the business to the owner, not just the fraud itself, they would have convicted him.

Total bullshite, but I see the judge's view from a legal standpoint.

Generally speaking a Judge cannot overturn a jury verdict, they can issue a Judgement Notwithstanding the Verdict if the Judge determines that no reasonable jury could reach a verdict based on the evidence given (this is not the case here). If there are procedural errors the Judge can order a new trial.

ETA: Keep in mind that a Judgment Notwithstanding the Verdict is rarely given. Judges tend to show respect to the jury in this regard.

Yeah, they'll just appeal it.

This woman is batshit crazy. The 7 figures + full head of hair eliminated 99.997% of men out there. Let alone the other shite she wants. And she's not attractive, she has no chance.

She should be looking for a hard working middle class guy that holds Christ close to his heart, but isn't preachy. And work with the rest.
