Why Wall Street Funds Anti-Tariff Lawfares
Liberal judges just blocked Trump’s tariffs—protecting foreign profiteers and Wall Street’s $25 trillion trade deficit cash cow at America’s expense.

Here's Spencer:
May 30, 2025
Earlier this week, the U.S. Court of International Trade ruled the tariffs were illegal. Yesterday, a second court followed suit.
There is no other way to say it:
liberal judges are waging unrestricted lawfare against President Trump.
First, they protected illegal immigrants from deportation—literally sheltering criminals from justice.
Now, they’re protecting foreign governments and multinational corporations from President Trump’s tariffs.
This is not surprising. Wall Street is engaging in total warfare against President Trump. Why? Because Wall Street profits tremendously from the trade deficit, to the tune of over $1.2 trillion per year. If President Trump is successful, this gravy train comes to an end.
How Wall Street Sold America for [$25 Trillion] Pieces of Silver
America has run a chronic trade deficit every year since 1974. The total cumulative value of this trade deficit (adjusted for inflation) is over $25 trillion.
( A huge number which means we are selling the contry to foreigners,not a good way to survive.)
That is, Americans bought $25 trillion more than they sold. Of course, we didn’t get the goods for free—we still had to pay for them. How? By selling assets and debt.
An asset is something that we made in the past that still retains value.
A good example of an asset is a house. The production of a house made in 1974 would contribute towards America’s GDP in 1973, but not today. However, the house—and the land—retains value and can be sold in the current year to buy foreign products. This sale would not count towards America’s GDP, nor would it factor into the trade deficit, but it does balance the payment.
Just like the Canarsee, America trades assets—everything from Iowa’s best farmland to shares in New York’s largest companies—every year to pay for our trade deficit. For example, in 2024, foreigners bought an estimated $42 billion of residential real estate, $8 billion of agricultural land, and $12 billion of commercial real estate.
Needless to say, this buying pressure raises real estate prices. This benefits people with exposure to the market—primarily institutional real estate investors—at the expense of the American people, who struggle to afford their rent or mortgages.
In addition to real estate, Americans also sell ownership of our businesses. As of June 2023, foreign investors own some 17 percent of all American equities. This inflates the stock market by guaranteeing buying pressure—again, benefitting Wall Street. The stock market balloons while factories and jobs vanish on Main Street.
Ownership of our businesses has other dire consequences, such as giving foreign governments direct access to our technologies. This perpetuates the massive theft of American intellectual property, which is estimated to cost America up to $150 billion every year.
Americans also sell debt to pay for the trade deficit.
This is sort of like buying groceries on our credit cards, except it is occurring at the national level. For example, foreigners own some $8.67 trillion of U.S. Treasury securities, accounting for 24 percent of the public debt. Further, America’s corporate and household debt has ballooned since 1973 to the highest levels since World War II.
Debt is especially dangerous because we have to repay the principal, and we pay interest. This inflates the cost of buying foreign products in a way that most economists fail to appreciate.
Consider that America became a debtor nation in 2006—for the first time since the Great Depression. As a result, we are now paying over $150 billion in interest every year to foreign entities for the privilege of buying the products we should be building.
Given the massive profits that Wall Street earns in selling out America, is it any wonder that they are funding litigation to stop President Trump’s tariffs?
The President needs to stand firm(when it comes to tariffs). Remember, tariffs are the time-tested solution that was supported by America’s most successful presidents, from George Washington to Abraham Lincoln to Donald Trump.
Tariffs will reshore American industry and shift our economy from consumption to production, protecting our economy, our industry, and our national security.
Most importantly, tariffs will make it harder for Wall Street to betray the American people.
It also looks like the West Taiwan EV auto industry is heading down the same road as the real estate and bicycle sharing sectors.
My son lives in eastern South Carolina and says Linda Grahamnesty is not popular with the citizens there but has major support in urban areas and has all the money needed from big business to buy his seat. Maybe some Patriots will step up and vote him out.
“Please stop and take a moment right now to pray for the protection and relief of Bill Binney and his wife. Their situation appears to have become far more dire than the interview yesterday, or even her Truth Social posts conveyed. For some reason they are enduring some kind of massive, blitzkrieg, directed energy weapon attack, perhaps related to his interviews on the subject.”

wow
“The survey of 1,216 American Adults was conducted on May 22 and 25-26, 2025 by Rasmussen Reports.”
So the data sample is June 2024 to present. Of those that answered the survey as D or R, a quarter to half were vaxxed. Seems like a lot in the last year. Wonder if the sampling design skews to sampling responders that favor vaxxing.
:: The survey of 1,216 American Adults was conducted on May 22 and 25-26, 2025 by Rasmussen Reports. ::
I find it much more interesting that Rasmussen could only get 1,216 respondents over 3 days of phone calls on a holiday weekend.
Not the best documented story - but we all knew it to be true. Many 'public officials' had to be on the take, right up to the highest levels!
I hope this is the beginning of exposure of a massive scandal and at least hundreds of these privileged creeps get caught up in the prosecutorial web!
Excuse me sir / madam... have you seen our electric chair? ❓
our promise of a future, and all that entails.
............hopefully we’ll get to see nel fitted for an orange jump suit & a trip to gitmo
“Government incentives are the only way these companies survive.”
Does this mean that ethanol in our fuel will soon cease to exist? If so.... MOAR WINNING.
they’re coming from the Event Horizon...

Good for that woman. I hope she has a lot of protection because you know the transperv maniacs will be out to get her.
Sweet!
We can only hope with ethanol but given how corn ethanol is tied to farmers and Trump wants to do everything possible to help farmers it is a long shot to rid us of it.
