Hitler also had a few assassination attempts that were all foiled by straight luck. This is all a cosmic joke as clearly there is no God and everything seems to be just a random collision of idiocy and probabilities |

cheering for assassinations of political opponents, and of course if you just label them as Hitler, you are the good guy. KEKW |
Yah cuz nobody on the right has EVER called for harm to come of anyone and this administration hasn’t pursued anyone who doesn’t align with their views to fire them, degrade them, threaten their lives or deport them yah? You’re such a sanctimonious prick. |

"the far right is retarded so I can be, too" Nice. Reddit brain. |
Didn't apple chopper their own plan to fly to india "Apple said to be flying iPhones from India to US to avoid Trump tariffs Tech firm has reportedly flown 600 tonnes of handsets from Indian factories as Chinese goods face huge tariffs" I guess people called Trump up and said wth.. and he has to back down. |
^ so yah, no tariffs now on electronics and cellphones. Moral of the story, don't react to Trump's tariffs too quickly, give it a week or two or three ... very likely he will change his mind. |

In the last 24 hours this video and others like it have been showing up on my feed because of the tariffs. It's people in China claiming that most luxury brands just but items from China do some finishing touches on them and sell them a very high prices. https://www.instagram.com/reel/DIaOEbUJL2R/ |

You know that trope where you say "Imagine if you could go back in time and kill one person, for me it would be Hitler" 7even is that guy who goes "I can't believe you would advocate killing someone" |
Are we having a Minority Report moment here in RS? Awwwwww… |
Let's be real, if Trump got sniped it would probably cause a civil war and who knows what nutjob would come out of the woodwork vowing to "take back our country" and probably win. |

Your thoughts? A slow sell off U.S. Treasury Bonds to send a message to Cheeto. If there’s one thing the past week made painfully clear, it’s this, other countries still know how to govern. Our White House, on the other hand, is occupied by a kakistocracy, a government by the worst, least qualified, and most corrupt. A kind of reality show LARP where yelling “be cool” on Truth Social is treated as fiscal policy. Here’s what may have actually happened: Trump thought he was going full “madman theory”, unleashing 145% tariffs on China, 25% on Canada, and sweeping “Liberation Day” tariffs on the rest of the world (except, naturally, Russia). The goal? To scare countries into submission. Instead, they blinked… slowly and raised an eyebrow. Then proceeded to box him in with quiet, competent precision. Enter Mark Carney, Canada’s new Prime Minister and a former head of the Bank of England and Bank of Canada. In other words, a guy who actually understands leverage, not just the political kind, but the kind that moves global markets. While Trump was yelling into the internet, Carney was gathering allies behind closed doors, Japan, the EU, France, Germany, the Netherlands, and making one simple pitch: “If the U.S. keeps up the tariff chaos, we start slowly bleeding your bond market.” And so they did. Not a fire sale. Not a bombastic news conference. Just a subtle slow bleed of U.S. Treasury bonds, signaling to investors across Asia and Europe: the dollar is no longer a sure thing. That, more than any chant at a rally, makes markets flinch. And it did. The dollar slipped. Bond yields wobbled. Wall Street panicked. And then, like clockwork, Trump blinked. He called it a “90-day pause” on tariffs. He claimed he just wanted people to “be cool.” But here’s what actually happened: he got reverse-UNO’d by people with actual credentials. People who don’t appear on Fox News. People who don’t post memes. People who, wait for it, read economic reports. Even Trump’s own messaging gave away the panic. The usual chest-thumping gave way to baffling justifications, half-coherent rambling about people getting “yippy,” and absolutely zero concessions from anyone he tried to intimidate. China didn’t cave. Canada didn’t cave. Nobody flinched. The only person who flinched was Trump. And now, the tariffs are still partially in place, but the “Liberation Day” bonanza has been walked back. No victory. No strategic win. Just market confusion, diplomatic embarrassment, and once again, the realization that Trump isn’t playing 4D chess, he’s playing tic-tac-toe with people who wrote the rulebook for chess, built the board, and own the bank that financed the tournament. And that, folks, is how you know we’re not the main character in the world story anymore. The grownups in other countries still run financial systems. Meanwhile, we have a man in the White House who thinks “getting yippy” is a valid macroeconomic analysis. Let that sink in. Better yet, let it motivate you, because if other countries can organize to check Trump’s madness… so can we. #TradeWar #tariffs #MarkCarney #canada Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |
Extra funny when Trump was boaring on in one of his stupid Airforce 1 videos about how “beautiful” their bonds are. Totally incompetent. |

The other part, the truth of what happened, is hilarious. A Japanese hedge fund that was likely up to its tits in leverage had to raise cash real bad so they sold of T-Bills right after the tariff announcement which caused the overnight markets to freak out. Trump is so weak (and the US economy so fragile) that a single hedge fund can almost start an economic meltdown (technically that's sorta what happened in 2008 too so I guess we shouldn't be too surprised). SAD! |
