🔴 ⚠️ BREAKING: US-UK trade pact will leave the 10% US tariff in place – CNN. — FinancialJuice (@financialjuice) May 8, 2025 Trump's "big" trade deal is with the UK:– It's a framework not a deal– They're our 11th largest trading partner– They're only 3% of US trade (97% to go)– They *already* charge average …
by confoundedinterest17 The April Jobs report blew away the tariff crash hysteria. 177k jobs were added, far better than the doomsayers predicted.

We don’t need no stinkin’ Fed!

People get very emotional about taxes. The truth is we have trillions of dollars in debt that needs to be serviced. The market doesn’t care about your “feelings” or “beliefs”. It also doesn’t care about your politics. It wants viable solutions. — QE Infinity (@StealthQE4) March 13, 2025

Half-measures won’t fix this. We need deep, relentless cuts—every wasted dollar, every useless program, every ounce of government excess must go. Mistakes? Sure, …
