He chose a law that did not authorize tariffs


I tend to be on the side of there is strategy to this. I think Trump knew they would be struck down. However, by utilizing the IEEPA, he bypassed the red tape and accomplished some real things that have permanence even if his tarrifs are struck down.

For instance, he got USMCA revisions, India pacts, and concessions from 100+ countries that are essentially locked in under these tariff pressures. I'm sure there are other accomplishments that have some permanence that I haven't listed.

You remind me of the Ole Miss poster circa 2015 that invaded this board posting all these wonderfully positive things about Rubio.

Fact is Rubio got 99-0 confirmation vote while every, single, other appointment Trump made was fought for tooth and nail.

The Uniparty loves them some Rubio. I'm sorry, him making nice speeches and pushing Trumps agenda (for now) aren't enough for me.
Few more years and he will stand before God either way.

it's a long-term economic projection over 20-30 years that leverages future growth and sanction-lifted market access. Not to mention that Russia sits on a nice Rare Earth market that goes largely untapped without our help.
i'm still skeptical of Rubio. 99-0 confirmation was a major red flag for me. He's saying all the right things, but part of me still fears he may be a Uniparty plant.
Life isn't a movie. If there were crimes in these files, they would have been prosecuted. Otherwise things like this happen in politics for one reason and one reason alone. Leverage.

Depends. Are you filthy stinking rich and able to force the prosecution to waste millions of tax payer dollars in the pursuit of charges?

If not, then you're screwed.

Justice in this country is not blind.
They won't need to kill us like that. The second I can buy my own personal Ana De Armas or Margot Robbie sex bot, the human race is already dead to me anyway.

He had a source that was telling him that arrests were coming, but they never came and instead the FBI showed up to take possession of the 2020 ballots in Fulton county.

At best, i'd say his informant was wrong.
In Dictatorships, failure means death. No one will br willing to admit it so they will lie.
Honestly the Tongvas can just start moving onto her property, climb the fence if they have too. She's already established that it's not illegal to occupy stolen lands.
I think everyone would do well to remember that these Epstein files contain many uncorroborated accusations.

The FBI was receiving ALL kinds of nonsense related to epstein and a lot of the sensational shite you see like "George HW Bush was raping kids and cutting feet off" was just some random report that they received.
1. Shoveling too loudly
2. Messed up the pretty snow.
3. Shoveled snow on to her side of the property.

Take your pick.

This is part of the normal responsibilities of the DNI. They always monitor elections for foreign interference.

Trump is just doing that thing where he states the obvious thing that is already happening, and you liberals eat it up as some unprecendented thing.

Between Murkowski, Collins, McConnell, and his buddies Hawley and Tuberville you aren't going to get the votes to end the filibuster, especially not over the Save act when they could have ended it during the government shutdown.
