I think if congress dives into all this up and down with tariffs which result in up and down of the market, I would bet that a few could be charged with inside trading! And as a side note, you, Scott, and Jessica are my absolute favorite substacks!!! I proudly subscribe to both! Thank you!

Trump removing almost all of his tariffs for 90 days is simply part of the grift game he's playing, a control the board move. His attitude that he is going to do this because we are worried is an insult. When has he ever "worried" about anything other than himself? It goes beyond worry and is now in the realm of disgust and furious at the manipulation of everything he can get his perverted hands on. We are not stupid. We do not appreciate him dabbling and playing god over whatever insane idea he comes up with, outside of the regular norms and controls of governing. Flip to this, unflip tomorrow. It is totally unstable and must be stopped. I am done with him...and I'm sure I'm not alone, at least in the anti-MAGA world.

I think Trump is trying to make up the game as he goes along, and it’s not gonna go the way he thinks it will.

Does Substack offer a transcript of videos? I am sure I'd love this, but it's an hour long, and I could probably read the transcript in about ten minutes. If Substack doesn't offer a way to do transcripts, I hope they do soon! Elbows 🇨🇦 up!!

I have vision problems (for realz). That is pretty clear because there's a "transcript" button right underneath the video, lol. When I clicked it, the transcript showed up right there. Really glad to know that because I don't watch Substack videos.

I am a little fly at the end of the tippett, reversing direction abruptly, repeatedly with each cast. I land, float, get dragged underwater, tangle in trees, am offered for violent and ravenous consumption, over and over again. May sundown come soon on this madcap fisherman's day.

All Americans should be going after every single MAGA Project 2025 Republican because they are trying once again to STEAL our money from us and putting it in their pockets. (1) the Tax Code is RIGGED in favor of the billionaires, (2) DOGE is being used as a cover to prevent the IRS (that's why they are cutting the IRS) from making the billionaires pay, (3) the Trump Tax Cuts are going to give the billionaires even more of our money! (Project 2025 said one of their goals is to make life a living hell for government employees!!)

I really hope a few get absolutely busted for insider trading. Everything is so erratic. Nothing is normal. Our retirement funds took the plunge. This social security cut really makes me feel anxious . The layoffs 7k already. Website crashing and now another round of layoffs! We are at the age where we are about to apply for it. Once government is broken, it will take a long time to rebuild. Money is a big deal to We The People. I am still calling and am continuing to protest. Okay so I’ve been out in the community and SO MANY people just have no clue what is going on. Trump is mentally unstable. He’s an abusive evil man. He needs to be impeached, convicted and held accountable.

The gratitude I feel is when I see people like you never giving up and giving us great information and clarity.

Pump n Drump. Drumph crime family and friends. (And they had detailed financials following Biden family money; who is doing that for them? I hope someone in congress has chapter and verse on these crooks.)

I think at the core, he'd rather be popular, be "loved," than be this terrorizing bully.

I'd like to say Trump finally thought things through, and that makes today "De-Liberation" Day. But I don't believe Trump has ever reasoned through anything.

Face it: He couldn't take the heat, so he closed the kitchen, and I don't think he'll re-open it again soon.

That’s what it looks like William. And Congress might close the door so he can’t do it anymore. But we shall see.

Stay away from X as I read an article on my Smart News App and the authorities told him that’s private information and we can sue Musk and his minions for not getting a disclosure from each of us as he broke The Privacy Act Law

Trump is malignant narcissist and yes can defeat him, plus I just read that his buddy Elon Musk got a big lecture. I encourage everyone to join Bluesky, Jack Dorsey started it

Hey, Scott we can defeat Trump I have no doubt number one he goes on the X app where I am on Bluesky thanks to MSNBC Rachael Maddow. It’s a very friendly environment and most of my friends have gone to that app instead of X
