    Harrison Fields, a White House staffer, was on the radio today with Steve Scully talking about all of this.  He was rah-rahing the tariffs.  Scully asked him about Heard and McDonald plus Diego Garcia.   He said the reasoning was to prevent anyone trying to get around the tariffs by using places like this.  Of course Scully didn't ask him how some tiny ass windswept, penguin infested islands 1,000 miles from Australia would factor into that.

    Ok, let’s play along.

    Some country under tariffs decides to try to game the system by claiming a false country of origin. Are they contending that they would have been tricked if they were told “Yes sir Mr. Customs Officer these industrial widgets were built in Heard and McDonald Island! No tariffs for me.”

    And instead they would be charged 10% to make up for all the penguins that have been screwing over American workers?

  2. He wants to be able to demand bribes to lift the tariffs. He even talked about how he was anticipating phone calls immediately after the speech was over. He’s going to be disappointed when he discovers that everyone else just makes fair trade agreements amongst themselves.

    They'll likely cut him next year with a post-June 1 designation. Kind of what the Broncos had to do with Russell Wilson. Here's his situation from Overthecap:

    No matter what, the Browns are really screwed for the next several years. 

    They should have granted Miles Garrett his wish and let him sign somewhere else. A $40M defensive lineman isn’t going to be able to compensate for the rest of the roster.

    The 22nd amendment does not say Trump is ineligible to be POTUS. It says he’s ineligible to be elected at POTUS.  
     

    Thats a big loophole for the 12th. 

    The constitution also says a presidential election must be held every 4 years.

    The only “loophole” is canceling elections by declaring martial law.

    To make things more interesting, there are currently at least 3 (and up to 7) B-2 bombers that have been staged to Diego Garcia, away from the US base where they normally are based. There are 3 aircraft visible in satellite photos, parked right next to the 4 special purpose hangars built for the B-2, which might well also have a B-2 inside right now.

    Apparently, as they were flying out that way, the B-2 were communicating on open frequencies, so people could identify the call signs as B-2 aircraft. Not sure if that is typical or not, but aircraft nerds or such managed to pick up at least 5 call signs for B-2 aircraft, one of which had to make an emergency landing at Pearl Harbor.

     

    Has anyone texted Pete to see what’s up?

    on the other hand, there's this bunch of fucking cunts

     

     

    Certainly a bully will stop abusing you once you capitulate, right?

    Besides that, firms that cut a deal are going to be bankrupt anyways once their clients abandon them for lawyers with a spine.
