I'm loving these masterful moves.
All the heat at the very beginning so the results are in quicker so Americans know the score.
When the money finally starts flowing into the coffers nay sayers will have to eat crow.

If the U.S. government does NOT eliminate the federal, our nation will NO LONGER EXIST.

I believe THE DAY OF INDEPENDENCE for equitably tariffs was DESIGNED to eliminate the PERSONAL FEDERAL INCOME TAX!!!

I'm patiently waiting, though it's too late for me as I'm no longer in the workforce.
Younger people would benefit greatly without about 20% of their paycheck going to income taxes.

Yes. I just posted this on another thread, I hope you don't mind if I re-post:
We are going to find out if there is still any "American" in the citizens of America.

I see people on this very forum who want to continue onward using the playbook that has been used for the last 80 years, and which has led us to being $37 Trillion in Debt, with the debt increasing by $1 Trillion every 90 days, and $600 Billion being spent annually just to service the interest on our debt.

People are upset that their investments are being affected. I am too. Just looked at our finances last night.

What is so hard to understand about the fact that we are broke, we are$37 Trillion in Debt, with the debt increasing by $1 Trillion every 90 days, and $600 Billion being spent annually just to service the interest on our debt, and that this situation is not sustainable?

All those precious, hard earned dollars in our investments are going to evaporate if we do not bring industry back into our country, established fair trade, and address our enormous government bloat which not only hamstrings our economy with the salaries of unneeded workers who have long supported government as a jobs program, the regulations imposed by such a large parasitic entity are choking our ability to maintain an industrial base.

And saying that if we don't address that will result in ALL of our investments going belly up (and, our nation, and us with it) is not hyperbole.

I challenge anyone to argue that being$37 Trillion in Debt, with the debt increasing by $1 Trillion every 90 days, and $600 Billion being spent annually just to service the interest on our debt will NOT destroy this nation, our savings, and us with it.

All you Freepers out there going wobbly, you tell me: Do you want to preserve your current savings at the cost of losing this nation where you will lose those savings anyway, or are you going to support Trump and his efforts to begin to slow our headlong rush towards national oblivion.

Anyone who thinks saving this nation is going to be easy and painless does not understand the hole we are in, and how time and compound interest are conspiring to bear down on us to put an end to this nation we love.

To state this baldly is not hyperbole or hysteria. We need to make a stand, and we have run out of time.

The Chinese-made chattels ‘our’ multi-nationals sell are generally not made in the USA.

The Chinese are in no position to tariff multi-national/Chinese joint venture products as they are not imported.

If the EU tries to retaliate against stuff made in China by US multi-national/Chinese joint ventures or merely carrying US brand labels, the Chinese will fight the EU.

The Chinese government doesn’t want joint venture workers to lose hours or jobs.

I watched early ABC news this morning. The fear porn was in third gear. According to them, the end times are here. Trump is the anti-christ, tariffs are the mark of the beast, and the world ending plagues that destroy mankind will happen by the end of the week.

FR thread——Tariffs Also Counter VAT Taxes, Currency
Manipulation, Dumping, Export Subsidies, Fake Standards

On FNC’s “Sunday Morning Futures,” White House senior economic counselor Peter Navarro explained the long-term implications for the Trump administration’s tariffs and how they will function to ensure fair trade for the United States.

“Let’s not forget, every economic report that’s been coming out in the last month has been pushing us towards expansion and strength,” Navarro said. “And we just had a blowout jobs number on Friday, 228,000 jobs. That was 50 percent higher than was predicted.”

“There’s cognitive dissonance between what the media is saying, that Pres Trump wants to push us into recession, and what’s actually happening. The tariff and trade policy is just one chapter in a book that contains all these other beautiful things that we’re going to do. If you just take, for example, the oil prices, oil prices were a dollar higher during the Biden years. For a commuting, working family, that’s about $1,000 worth of gas prices they had to pay. We’re going to get that back for them.”

“Tariff revenues, $600 billion, $700 billion annually, are going to raise $6 trillion to $7 trillion over the 10-year period. They’re going to help pay for the tax cuts. I will tell you this, Jackie. Every single dollar that comes in, in tariff revenues that we take from the foreigners who have been cheating us are going to go right to the American public in terms of tax cuts and debt reduction.”

Trump Job Approval Rises a whopping 4 Points to 53%
Breitbart ^ | 04/06/2025 | JOHN NOLTE
Posted on 4/6/2025, 2:57:57 PM by SmokingJoe

During the week of the overwhelmingly approval poll:
<><>Trump was crucified nightly by the Legacy Media for even considering reciprocal tariffs.
<><>doomsday-speak was everywhere but had only one effect
<><>to surge Trump’s approval numbers.
<><>Trump’s job approval rose four points during Tariff Week, 49 to 53%.
<><>over 1000 voters polled between March 31 and April 3.
<><>Since March 7, young voters 18 and 29 approval jumped 13 points.
<><>Among Independents and Democrats, Trump enjoyed a six-point increase.
<><>Most telling, black voters approval jumped 17 points in a single week.
<><>most support Trump’s tariffs——39% support, 37% oppose, 24% were unsure.
<><>and “significantly approve reducing” illegals coming in, 69% yes, only 26% no.

All of it is after the Regime Media coordinated a regime-wide tantrum over DOGE, the ridiculous SignalGate nothingburger, and the hoax about a gang member deported to El Salvador in error. Normal People see right through it.
