Some simple numbers:
--
Walmart's gross profit margin, which reflects the difference between sales revenue and the cost of goods sold, was 24.58% for the quarter ending January 31, 2025. Their net profit margin, which represents the overall profit after all expenses, was 2.85% for the same quarter.
--
So for goods imported from China (I think current tariff is 30%) Walmart would have to sell at a loss to to meet Trump's demand.

In effect Trump wants to place a 30% tax on all retailers (who sell China goods) 'cept instead of the tax being on profts it would be on revenue and would drive just about every retailer out of business presuming retailers sold only goods from China and tariff remains 30%.

Horrible loss of life in eastern KY. Only heroic triage planning kept this from being even worse. A direct effect of the DOGE cuts:

Kentucky NWS forecast office faced federal staffing cuts before deadly tornadoes hit​

The Jackson, Kentucky, weather service office recently cut overnight staff but meteorologists were called in to handle the deadly tornado outbreak, a union official said.​

What about the other 1M Gazans? Give Bibi the green light to implement his final solution?

Lol he is using outright blackmail to coerce Libya. Only the second most shameful part of this flagrantly illegal "plan."

In a way, the US government is already defaulting on obligations through the illegal impoundment. For instance, it's being reported that Northwestern University has not received any money for NIH research (that NW has been contracted to do) since end of March, with zero communication from the administration.

Trump posted this on Truth Social at 1:30AM

HOW MUCH DID KAMALA HARRIS PAY BRUCE SPRINGSTEEN FOR HIS POOR PERFORMANCE DURING HER CAMPAIGN FOR PRESIDENT? WHY DID HE ACCEPT THAT MONEY IF HE IS SUCH A FAN OF HERS? ISN’T THAT A MAJOR AND ILLEGAL CAMPAIGN CONTRIBUTION? WHAT ABOUT BEYONCÉ? …AND HOW MUCH WENT TO OPRAH, AND BONO??? I am going to call for a major investigation into this matter. Candidates aren’t allowed to pay for ENDORSEMENTS, which is what Kamala did, under the guise of paying for entertainment. In addition, this was a very expensive and desperate effort to artificially build up her sparse crowds. IT’S NOT LEGAL! For these unpatriotic ‘entertainers,’ this was just a CORRUPT & UNLAWFUL way to capitalize on a broken system. Thank you for your attention to this matter!!!


He's going to spend millions investigating this, I don't know if his "MAJOR AND ILLEGAL CAMPAIGN CONTRIBUTION" is accurate. However, if anyone knows about major and illegal activities, it would be Diaper Don. Even if she did something here, she lost, so what's there to investigate? He's still butthurt she got all the big name celebs and he had Kid Rock, Rosanne & Ted Nugent. His pettiness, as always is unrivaled. Springsteen shitting on him at his concert last week really seems to have Trump in his feelings. Before he started to call him a bum, I remember Trump played a Bruce song at one of his rallies lol.

A big part of me hopes he stays focused on this nonsense because it will keep him occupied. And not surprisingly he has full MAGA support here for going after Kamala.

More announcements of "investigations". What's missing from all the crimes they've allegedly found? Actual charges, things you have to actually defend in court and prove are true.

It's just more noise intended to intimidate those who oppose him.
