Our President sticks by his guns. Social media is filled with naysayers and all of a sudden many of our fellow citizens are market experts, running around with their hair on fire!
President Donald Trump was defiant in the face of calls to soften his plan to institute massive global tariffs after historic drops in the U.S. and global markets. Trump spoke to reporters on Air Force One while returning to the White House from Florida where he had attended the LIV Golf tournament, a trip that was criticized by Democrats who said the White House should instead be responding to Americans’ fears about the economy.
I contend that the real question should be, “Why didn’t Jeffrey Goldberg announce his mistaken presence immediately, and leave the chat?”
[. . .]
So, how did Goldberg get invited onto the chat? It all goes back to when Goldberg was attempting yet another hit piece during the 2024 campaign. Goldberg, the Atlantic’s editor and chief Trump antagonist, had been reaching out to various officials in his usual attempt to smear the president. This led to a series of forwarded communications that ultimately resulted in his contact information being caught in an automated iPhone update.
According to an exclusive report from The Guardian, an internal White House investigation found that “Waltz’s phone had saved Goldberg’s number as part of an unlikely series of events that started when Goldberg emailed the Trump campaign last October.”
We decided to finally take on a much requested recipe: pasta al limone, or lemon pasta. The only problem is… which one? In today’s video, Eva is showing three different ways to make delicious, refreshing, and EASY lemon pasta!
Lindy Li has always been a Democrat, but who has apparently turned away from DEI/identity politics. She is an anti-Communist who was born in China, a self-described American patriot who would do anything for this country. She didn’t vote for Kamala, but she didn’t vote for Trump either.
Dave Rubin of “The Rubin Report” talks to Lindy Li about her time as a Kamala Harris campaign advisor; her concerns about Joe Biden’s cognitive decline, and the coverup by party officials; how she leaked information to the press; the threats she received from the White House; the media’s role in covering up Biden’s health issues, including Jake Tapper’s sudden reversal; how she was blacklisted from MSNBC and CNN after criticizing Biden; Jill Biden’s strong push for Joe Biden to remain in office despite his cognitive decline; Hunter Biden’s involvement in high-level White House meetings while Biden was incapacitated; the financial collapse of Biden’s campaign post-debate; Rep. James Clyburn’s pivotal influence in Biden’s presidency; behind-the-scenes tensions between Team Biden and Team Harris; last-minute secrecy surrounding Biden’s resignation decision; the hidden power of unelected advisors running the administration; her initial hope for Kamala Harris but quickly realizing she lacked the leadership needed to run the country; her long history of pushing back against the far left, including clashes with Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez; concerns over identity politics and Democratic leadership; who she voted for in 2024; and much more.
Is she legit? There are skeptics out there. Here’s one.
Adversaries and allies alike have been ripping off the United States with “asymmetrical tariffs” for decades. Now, Trump is fighting back.
“Whatever a particular country tariffs us, we reciprocate and just mirror image them. In other words, it’s their choice, not ours,” VDH says.
On this edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words,” Victor Davis Hanson explains the history behind tariffs and how other countries have taken advantage of America’s no-tariff policy for years.
“It was all predicated in the postwar period. We were so affluent, so powerful—Europe, China, Russia were in shambles—that we had to take up the burdens of reviving the economy by taking great trade deficits,” Victor Davis Hanson says.
We can’t afford to remain neutral in the trade war that’s been happening for decades.
“If tariffs are so destructive of their economies, why is China booming?” Victor Davis Hanson asks.
