The argument's over: Americans pay for tariffs
The Trump administration conceded this weekend what economists, CEOs and consumers already knew: Americans pay for tariffs.
Why it matters: Nearly a decade of Trump trade arguments held that foreign countries, not Americans, paid the ultimate cost of a trade war.
But the president and his economic team now acknowledge that tariffs are raising prices for everyone, from industrial ports to retail storefronts.
The big picture: Trump's sweeping global tariffs, effectively the highest in nearly a century, are expected to cost the average household more than $2,300 a year, according to the Yale Budget Lab.

Hey, it starts. I think I'll just post headlines for a bit and let what Trump has done to the country, and even the lives of those posting here, sink in. Get a job Gilligan. You are certainly gonna need it.

Fact check: Trump falsely claims Biden ‘terminated’ South Korea deal Biden actually made
President Donald Trump tried again Tuesday to rewrite the history of US relations with South Korea.
Trump has repeatedly delivered false assertions about the payments South Korea has made for decades to help cover the cost of the major US military presence in the country (more than 26,000 personnel as of the end of 2024). On Tuesday, he wrote on social media that he had just spoken with South Korean acting President Han Duck-soo about economic issues and about “payment for the big time Military Protection we provide to South Korea.”
Trump then added this: “They began these Military payments during my first term, Billions of Dollars, but Sleepy Joe Biden, for reasons unknown, terminated the deal. That was a shocker to all!”
Trump’s claim is false in two big ways.
First, South Korea’s payments did not begin during Trump’s first term. The cost-sharing deals known as Special Measures Agreements began in 1991, more than 25 years before Trump took office in 2017.
Second, former President Joe Biden did not terminate a Trump cost-sharing agreement with South Korea. The only Special Measures Agreement signed by the Trump administration had expired by the time Biden took office in 2021 – and Biden’s administration then signed two such agreements, one in 2021 and one in 2024, that both included South Korean spending increases.

Van Jones: Dems Will Be Paying For Biden Health "Coverup" For A Long Time, "A Crime Against This Republic"

_be_paying_for_biden_health_coverup_for_a_long_time_a_crime_against_this_republic.html
Fuck you, Van Jones.
Double fuck you, Jake Tapper.
You lying motherfuckers.
I can only hope that a good deal of people on both sides and everyone in between remember how YOU lied to them about all of this.
I don't know when it happened, and it was likely before I was even born that it did, but you media types stopped working For The People a long, long time ago. You're nothing more than one of the most important pillars of the elite. The PR arm.
Everything you've said. All that pandering. You didn't mean a fucking word of any of it.
And for you all to keep coming on air now and pretending that you didn't see any of what was plain as day to the rest of us is either an admission of pure complicit behavior or pure incompetence at your jobs. One of those could arguably be considered treason, the other just means that none of you are qualified to be holding the positions that you hold and you are all abject failures at your ONLY job. And you sure as FUCK aren't qualified to tell any of us what to do, how to think or what is actually happening in the world on any given day.
FUCK ALL OF YOU.
I'm on Team Joe Biden* now.
After everything you've done to this sad, tired old fuck in the last few years of his life, for you to all come out and behave the way you are right now is despicable.
I hope there's a God just so hell is real and you burn there for eternity when the cancer man comes and takes you too.

Joe must be one of those Trumptards that SECOND is always posting about. Too many bad choices. I'll bet that's what's led to his sad, confused life of decrepitude.

Jake Tapper: "I Feel Humility" About My Coverage Of Biden Health, "But It's Not Like I Was Asking His Favorite Color"

Quote:
Knowing what I know now, obviously I feel tremendous humility about my coverage. That Lara Trump interview, for example—she saw something that I did not see at the time. 100%. And I own that.
...
MEGYN KELLY: Do you want to apologize to Lara Trump now?
JAKE TAPPER: I’ve already apologized to her. I called her months ago.
MEGYN KELLY: And what did she say?
JAKE TAPPER: I mean, I don’t want to disclose the contents of a private conversation, but I thought the conversation went well. And she said—she has said this publicly, so I feel fine sharing it—she said that she would never mock anybody’s stutter.
But I mean, after we did the research for this book and I realized how bad his acuity issues were—I called Lara Trump, and I said, “You were right.”
...
But as I said—her comments have aged well. My comments have aged poorly. I own that.
....
MEGYN KELLY: Over here in my ecosphere, we were covering all of these. It wasn’t just falling down—it was getting lost. It was some of the stuff you report in your book.
We knew and we were reporting on—the multi-jump cuts in the videos of him, where it was obvious he couldn’t get through a one-minute take, so they had to use those. It was clear to us that he was using teleprompters, and there was some reporting on that at the time—all of which the White House was denying.
Now, with the current White House—I have some connections with the Joe Biden White House. I had none. But you did. You did.
And so—while you’ve been in Washington 30 years, Jake, you and CNN have White House connections. But there was no effort—none—to get to the bottom of this.
And now for you guys to write this book like there was a cover-up—it’s like, yes, there was a cover-up. And there was an attempted cover-up. It could only ever work if you allowed it.
FUCK YOU JAKE.
You fucking liar.

Thompson and Tapper mostly fill in the details of a story we already knew: Biden’s cognition declined sharply over his final two years in office, and his core advisers schemed to disguise this reality from donors, Democratic officials, and the public.
You already knew... YOU ALREADY KNEW!!!!!??????
FUCK YOU VOX.
