I'd say "yes" but if they don't get it by now they won't ever fucking get it.

Even when the metal parts they need for their car goes from $10 to $50 they'll just find a way to blame Biden for it somehow because they refuse to learn that they voted for their own suffering!

Lots of legal stuff (obviously) but basically spelling out the several ways that the Supreme Court or Congress could stop the tariffs, but probably won't. So that everyone knows that it still could be stopped, but the Republicans probably won't do shit.

How's the market doing today, trading day 2 after the tariffs announcements?

And everyone's most hated walking excrement's personal ego machine 1?

Trump's tariffs and a grieving mother

In case you don’t believe Trump’s tariffs will affect you in ways you can’t anticipate or imagine, consider what happened to a friend of ours.

The woman’s son died recently. Here’s her Instagram post:

“Trump just managed to add insult to injury. I just ordered an urn for my son’s ashes. The urn happens to come from Canada. Due to Trump’s tariffs, it will cost an additional $90. That’s not the way to address inflations, or help American families.”

In a follow-up post, she wrote, in part: “ …My concern is larger than my individual situation. I hated paying the extra $90, but what about the family that can’t afford the extra? What about the additional hidden cost for all things Canadian and Mexican? What happened to controlling inflation? And what are we accomplishing by treating our friends this way …?”

What, indeed …?

A response to Trump's tariffs and just calling out the United States government on the drug crisis and the part they play in it. Honestly she is so freaking cool, while the United States decided to elect the moldy Cheeto I'm glad Mexico elected their first female president in my lifetime.

You have to understand how big a deal this is -- a real Canadian will apologise if you step on his foot. For an arena of Canadians to boo a visiting country's anthem is definitely unusual and an indication of how deeply offended they are by Trump's efforts to bully them.

Not only would the vast majority of Canadians reject the very notion of aligning with the US, they would probably even pass on the idea of the US joining Canada!

MAGAt in denial is looking for an argument against the people pointing out that Trump's tariff's are going to raise the prices of everything because there is none.

Not to lead to a run on basic shit in this country, like it's 2020 again (and Trump is president again, weird coincidence). But Walmart is warning that with tariffs and everything, their shelves might be empty in two weeks.

Got an essential you need to buy? Do it soon if you can.

Considering they're using "AI" to make up executive orders and then handing them to him to sign and no one on his team can be bothered to read, this kind of thing was inevitable but I'm glad at least there is some humour to be found in all this.

I have to hand it to Donald Trump, I didn’t think the sequel to the 1932 Great Emu War would be a trade war against the penguin nation but he truly continues to be an innovator in the stupidity industry
