  1. On the beach!
  2. The next time he plays fast will be his first.
  3. Did you at least wave the palm frond at the right time?
  4. I'm rooting for the course like I usually do. I want these whiny bastards dropping more fucks on the hot mic. Go stimp go. May the winds be contrary, the pine straw deep, and the azaleas grabby.
  5. This wasn't aired apparently. Edit: might have been seen in some markets. There's a mix in the comments. I ran across him about six months ago. If ever '3 chords and the truth' applied this is it.
  6. It's gonna get lost in the Tariff thread. I can hear some three piece punk band hammering this in my head.
  7. According to an internal document seen by POLITICO, the Commission is considering slapping tariffs of up to 25 percent on a broad range of exports from the U.S. in response to Trump's levies on steel and aluminum. https://www.politico.eu/article/eu-trade-bazooka-anti-coercion-instrument-donald-trump-tariffs/
  8. Leonard Leo and Charles Koch are suing on behalf of Simplified. It doesn't mention venue. A libertarian group backed by Leonard Leo and Charles Koch has mounted a legal challenge against Donald Trump’s tariff regime, in a sign of spreading rightwing opposition to a policy that has sent international markets plummeting. The New Civil Liberties Alliance filed a suit against Trump’s imposition of import tariffs on exports from China, arguing that doing so under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA) – which the president has invoked to justify the duties on nearly all nations – is unlawful. https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025/apr/07/trump-tariffs-lawsuit
  9. “Oil prices are down, interest rates are down (the slow moving Fed should cut rates!), food prices are down, there is NO INFLATION, and the long time abused USA is bringing in Billions of Dollars a week from the abusing countries on Tariffs that are already in place,” he wrote on Truth Social just before 7 a.m. https://nypost.com/2025/04/07/us-news/trump-shows-no-sign-of-backing-away-from-sweeping-tariff-plans-even-claiming-there-is-no-inflation/ Yeah, it's the NY Post, but I am not going to go find it on Truthy Social
  10. That gutless wonder left his little dog at home and took off to Cancun. That's after he let Trump insult his wife, capitulated and made campaign phone calls. He ain't gonna do shit
  11. I don't think it's going to ever make it that far. I expect it's an attempt to show that at least a handful of 'sensible people' want to do something about tariffs.
  12. I wonder if Tesla goes below 200 this week.
  13. Oof The situation was not better in other parts of the world. Stock futures in Japan were briefly halted after futures for the country’s Nikkei 225 and Topix indexes declined by more than 8%. Circuit breakers kick in on the Japanesese stock exchanges when the Nikkei or Topix move more than 8% in either direction. https://www.nbcnews.com/business/business-news/us-stock-futures-plunge-ahead-monday-open-trump-tariffs-shock-continue-rcna199924 So frazzled they misspelled it.
