Tariff wars
Aren’t Trump’s tariffs forcing the Fed to eventually cut interest rates, which is what Trump wants, due to the tariffs causing higher inflation? Why would Trump want the Fed to cut interest rates?

One hedge is having second thoughts on the genius that is Trump’s tariffs.

I'm trying to figure out how giving a Friday or Monday off in conjunction with a three-day holiday weekend does not "support executing the mission with excellence?"- The Next President is...
Yeah, they're called billionaires. This was their intended plan. Next up, claim the government doesn't work, so let's privatize it.- The Next President is...
It’s not supposed to benefit our national security, he wasn’t a puppet and that’s why Trump fired him.- The Next President is...

At least Ted Kaczynski was a Harvard graduate. I'm a Georgetown graduate, so unfortunately we have Bill Clinton. I agree; let's rationally discuss this. It wasn't so much as the government breaking the court order; it was their response to the court of "Well, we broke the order due to an administrative mistake, but now he's in El Salvador, so he's out of our jurisdiction, oh well." When an issue, especially a complex one, is brought in front of the court a lot of times it takes a while for the court to digest the issues and issue a ruling, it's not always going to happen via a filed motion or oral argument. If it's a permanent injunction, then due process allows one to appeal to a higher court. Let's not act like the government, both Dem and GOP administrations, don't go judge (really forum) shopping. The current DOJ filed asking for a declaratory judgment in West Texas stating that it should be allowed to terminate collective bargaining agreements between eight agencies and dozens of affiliates of the American Federation of Government Employees. Why in West Texas? Because there was a 100% chance of being (and has been) assigned to a Trump-appointed district judge, and where any appeal goes to the Fifth Circuit. I guess you missed it where I voted for Trump (I'm an independent in Colorado like most voters are; I can vote for either) largely due to Biden's laissez-faire immigration policy that was dictated by progressive NGOs. Both can be wrong; we need to stop with whataboutism. The Signalgate stuff should've been handled by the Trump Admin saying, "We fucked up, we're sorry, won't happen again." But that's never going to happen because Trump doesn't apologize and/or admit fault, and neither will his cabinet. Working across the aisle, being civil, and compromising by being bipartisan largely died when Ted Kennedy and John McCain did. That doesn't "sell" to the voters. It's "us versus them, winners and losers, etc." If the DNC wins the midterms, and especially in 2028, we're going to see the undoing of Trump's changes by the government swinging violently to the left. The only people who are going to suffer are the American people.- The Next President is...
The rest of the story is a blog citing some random X account that did some “analysis” of court documents where the judge found a preponderance of evidence to deny bond, but to not order removal?- The Next President is...
That's great, and so was I. By the way, Military RIF =! Civilian RIF when it comes to procedures and weighted categories. The DoD has different RIFing procedures than what OPM sends out to the other agencies. So, do you agree with Paul voting today with the Dems on the Senate resolution against the Canadian tariffs?- The Next President is...
Which one? I've graduated from a few.- The Next President is...
Yeah, MAGAats like yourself REALLY expected Coney Barrett to go along with the conservatives for the Trump 2.0 issues already brought to the court. Unfortunately for you, Roberts and her have been handing out some losses to your cult by siding with the liberals on the court. I guess they must be "activist judges," right? Better go on X and shitpost calling for their impeachment, I guess? I don't understand the "if and when" part of your post. Are you assuming you know how the DoD RIF process works or have seen it? I have, and I won't be part of that but continue to spout off about conjecture of things you don't know.- The Next President is...
Come? Where the fuck have you been in the past few months? Are they legal cuts or illegal cuts? The current administration sure has been taking some losses in the courts for illegal firing, then rehiring, federal employees (which costs taxpayers even more money).- World War III Updates

It's called judicial review. Don't like it? Appeal. Don't like the law? Run for Congress.- The Next President is...
He did, and then a federal judge via due process said he could be deported, but not to where he's from. He was deported to where he's from, thus breaking a court order. An immigration judge gave him due process by a hearing to determine if he can be deported back to where he's from (he couldn't). The government doesn't get to break a court order just because they don't agree with something. It's called due process, so appeal if you don't like the ruling, but that also doesn't mean it's going to go your way. I don't think pilots care about the opinions of judges on how to fly aircraft; judges don't care about pilot's opinions of their judicial review of a case. Don't agree with that? Go to law school and take the bar. We don't live in a Kafkaesque society. Remember, they are "activist judges" when they don't rule in favor of your home team. Funny how you were pretty quiet when the judges were ruling against Biden's student loan forgiveness.- The Next President is...
I’m going to assume you didn’t read the article? “The filing stems from a lawsuit over the removal of Kilmar Armando Abrego Garcia, a Salvadoran national who in 2019 was granted protected status by an immigration judge, prohibiting the federal government from sending him to El Salvador.”- The Next President is...

You mean the retard Gen Zer press secretary, whose qualifications is that she got creampied by her 59 year old husband, isn't doing a good enough job?- The Next President is...
It is delusional, which why Trump said this: “NBC News asked about a possible scenario in which Vice President JD Vance would run for office and then pass the role to Trump. Trump responded that “that’s one” method.” https://www.nbcnews.com/news/amp/rcna198752- The Next President is...
Who said he would do that? “No person shall be elected to the office of the President more than twice, and no person who has held the office of President, or acted as President, for more than two years of a term to which some other person was elected President shall be elected to the office of the President more than once.” He’ll run as Vance’s VP, then once elected Vance will resign. Either way, it’ll wind up at the SCOTUS for an interpretation of the 22nd Amendment.- The Next President is...
Can't answer the question?- The Next President is...
If you would’ve done what they did with that type of information, would you’ve been punished either via UCMJ or having your clearance suspended or revoked? It’s a yes or no question.- The Next President is...
