S-o-o-o much data! Either our NT MAGAs are illiterate... or they don't read by choice... or they read but do not understand... Zombies are like that.  There are links in the seed.

Trump is the Godfather in Reverse

“He's making offers countries can't accept”

If an action may be dangerous, the first thing to do is think about what to do in case something goes wrong. Don't you think? Make a Plan B. Be ready to change your approach. Right? Nah!!! Just wing it... There are links in the seed.

An American emergency: Is the patient half alive or half dead?

“At the 100-day mark, Trump's America lies wounded with no hope for help”

It's fascinating, in a "watch the train go off the rails" kind of way... Everyone knows we're speeding toward disaster, but no one knows how to stop. Trump's people are reduced to hoping that China will bail them out. Yeah, right....

Donald, what have you done?!

“First quarter GDP is looking alarmingly flat, and way down from where it was.”

It seems clear that Trump's minions wanted "shock and awe", so they moved fast and hard. DOGE kids rampaged through one government sector after another breaking everything they found. Kinda like a bull in a china shop. Ya know what? All that smashed china is really, really hard to put back...

Does the Democrats' need for political attention outweigh the harm they cause to workers and consumers?  While sales obviously garners the sole attention of politicians (look at all that money!), an auto dealership is much more than a sales floor.  There is also a service department that must...

'No way' US can recoup lost China container imports

“President Trump's China trade embargo is projected to devastate containerized shipments moving through U.S. ports.”

It's not often the unbiased liberal press allows real information to leak into the reporting.  As the data shows, the United States is importing boatloads of cheap, disposable, plastic consumer products from China -- made with fossil fuels.  China gets the profits from these transactions and the...

The dollar is crashing.  Yup imports will cost more but exports are more attractive. Gold seems to be going through a rough patch, too.  If that safe haven has become shaky then the 1% is definitely in trouble.  Not much yet but the trend is in the wrong direction.  Are we going to see more...

“What happens to the global world order if the United States defaults on sovereign debt?”

While everyone’s angst focuses on Trump shifting economic policy toward a more protectionist neo-merchantilism, the true imminent danger to the global economy is being ignored.  Half of the Federal deficit is now spent on servicing the sovereign debt.  The United States is now spending more on...
