Dump Term 2 Part 3: "But I Say Unto You, Hate Thy Enemies." -- Revulsions 5:44

I always hear stories of contractors and stuff demolishing things they built if they don't get paid. Maybe these guys should flip the script and rebuild the East Wing as it was if they don't get paid.

Q: “Do you agree that Americans are paying those tariffs?” Trump: “No, I don't agree. I think that they might be paying something…The Americans are gaining tremendously. They're gaining through national security. Look, I'm ending war because of these tariffs.”

A post a friend of mine had today......

"I don't want to be right about this. Shutdown, Tarrifs and the Coup we are in.
Last year, I started listening to the Revolutions podcast by Mike Duncan. The English Civil War was the first season. There a relationship between the king desloving parlament and Trump's tarrifs today.

One of the main reasons of the civil war besides reglion was the Poundage and Tonnage tax the king was given power to have to maintain the Navy. This tax was the power to tarrif in England and his subjects.

The Parlament wanted to take away the powers because he was getting into to many wars causing debt and the landed elite was getting powerful because of Parlament. Which lead to the king using the funds of the tarrifs to bankroll the civil war.

This shutdown can continue for the admin if the Supreme Court says that the executive branch has the power to tarrif. He will no longer need Congress to levy taxes. He will have money to find a private army at his control.

The Coup is here. Trump and the Republicans not agreeing on ending the shutdown. They know they would never get 60 votes in the Senate for the BBB. The Republicans won't break the filibuster. Republicans always intended to go into shutdown to make the king have his poundage and tonnage tax. The government can't fund the entirety of services on tarrifs but they can fund ICE, DHS, CIA, NSA, FBI all for transforming the government to become a police state.

Hopefully the Supreme Court says he doesn't have the power to tarrif. That disastrous ruling will be the end of what little democracy we have left."
 
The White House is touting that a Walmart Thanksgiving will be 25% cheaper this year. But, context means a lot.
