About this Episode
IN POLITICAL NEWS
1) And just like that, President Trump reset the trade map, as over 50 countries have contacted the White House to open trade talks. Victor Davis Hanson argues that Trump is righting a 50 year wrong in a "just" trade war. That stemmed from (as Mike Allen and I note in A Patriot's History of the United Stats) a "golden accident" where, for the first time in world history a single nation was the world's largest consumer AND largest producer. The U.S. is still, by far in terms of value the largest consuming nation in the world. Quirky Niall Ferguson agrees, kinda, but says Trump is reorganizing the Pax Americana and the geographical/political map. But he doesn't think we can reindustrialize. Really? Who saved your sorry ass in 1942? It was a nation that reindustrialized on a dime, turning out brand new factories in six months and making Liberty Ships in 4 DAYS.
2) What did this do to Asian (i.e., ChiCom) markets? They utterly crashed: Here is Jeff Childers' take: Mainland China's CSI 300 index dropped sharply into a plunge of around -6% to -7%. Hong Kong's main stock measure, the Hang Seng Index, crashed -13%— its worst day since a 1997 landslide during the Asian financial crisis. Indexes in Shanghai, Taipei and Tokyo fell between -7% and -10%. European markets have free-fallen between -5% and -7% since their openings early this morning. So our market is down some, theirs is down catastrophically. What will the ChiComs do? Childers had a great take: "world leaders aren’t calling Trump’s economic haggling team. They’re calling his hostage negotiating hotline." Case in point, Japan just requested a meeting. Trump has 50 meetings lined up to reciprocate/reduce tariffs. That's 25% of the globe.
3) While Trump is ready to deal with the Euros, he made it clear they are going to "pay up" for the past suckage they have put on the USA. The free ride caused by the "golden accident is kaput. They will be begging like panhandlers on the Vegas strip.
4) A Daily Mail poll shows that President Trump's approval has jumped to 53% after the tariff announcements.
5) Amazing news. The IRS is cutting its workforce by 25%, eliminating the entire "civil rights" office. You know, the same one that allowed Lois Lerner to target conservatives back in 2010? Meanwhile Trump has said he will eliminate the capital gains tax by year's end.
6) The Senate passed President Trump's budget, which now heads for the House.
7) This is the way. The Montana GOP has kicked out nine "Republican" legislators for continually voting with DemoKKKrats and they will receive no funding from the state party. Oh, that we could do that in the Senate.
8) Defense against hypersonic missiles requires more forward based interceptor technologies, known as "Golden Dome." While nothing is spelled out, this likely involves fewer actual missiles and more electronics warfare jamming and frying of enemy systems deployed in the Atlantic and Pacific. And speaking of missile defense, the US is redeploying Korean-based Patriot batteries to "another region," i.e., the Middle East.
9) A good column here by "Shipwreckedcrew" on the latest decisions by the Supes and how they send a clear warning to the rogue judges. By blocking one of the hyena-cabal's "temporary restraining orders," the Supes sent a message that the use of these TROs has reached "a dangerous level" and that ACB for one is on board with the conservatives to stop this horse manure. For example, he argues, "language in the Order that suggests at least 5 votes now exist for the proposition that some significant amount of the ongoing litigation over new Administration policies regarding cancelling grants, contracts, and other spending cuts, needs to be filed in the Court of Claims." It signals the judges do NOT have the jurisdictional authority to issue these, and that "meaningful bonds" need to be produced by the losers.
10) DemoKKKrat Congressman Jared Golden, from a very competitive ME district, admits he is pleased with President Trump's administration so far.
11) More evidence that DemoKKKrats are jumping ship. Chris Pappas, congressman from New Hampshire, announced he will leave the House to run for the Senate, where he would have little chance against Chris Sununu. 12) Meanwhile leftist wizards of smart insist the left can have an "abundance agenda." Nope. Not with green, not with illegal criminal aliens, and not with woke. These all ACTIVELY work against any form of "abundance" by denying power/energy growth (green), wages (illegals) and merit (woke).
13) Linda Sun, one of NY governor Hock-a-lugie's top aides, was arrested on treason charges. Good.
14) Correct. The interim US attorney for DC has likened the J6 Patriot Day cases to Japanese internment.
15) A new drug wipes out 90% of harmful cholesterol in a single dose in trials.
16) Seth Keshel shows that voter registration is moving in the GOP direction in ALL SEVEN of the swing states where it can be measured. Here is NC. An astounding net shift of +18,000 for Rs, -45,000 for Ds for an overall shift of over 63,000 SINCE MARCH.
17) The Los Angeles Slimes whines that "Trump is gutting" environmental regs. Good. We have way too many of these.
18) This is why we must purge these people as terrorists and ban the DemoKKKrat Party: 31% of whackadoodle skiddlepincher leftists say it's justified to kill Trump and Elon Musk.
19) In New Calcutta (LA), the mega homelessness agency was disbanded as, after an audit, the CEO resigned.
20) New photos are showing mysterious structures on Mars.
IN ILLEGAL CRIMINAL ALIEN NEWS
21) One of the DOGE team found a "terrifying" number of illegal criminal invaders on Medicaid.
IN CULTURAL NEWS
22) The VA has rescinded punishment for a chaplain and said that sermons can be explicitly Christian. Why the heck would they NOT be? Those so-called Christians who opposed President Trump look like total demonscabs right now.
23) Ryan Burge: the rise of the "nones" has flattened.
IN ECONOMIC NEWS
24) Paul Bunyan is back folks. The US has ordered new timber and forestry logging in national parks.
25) Wyoming's trade schools are packed: the "Toolbelt Generation."
26) INTEL and Taiwan Semiconductor announced a new joint venture to share chipmaking tech with the U.S.
27) U.S. uranium production hit the highest level in 8 years.
28) Plano, Texas---not Disneyland---may be the happiest place on earth, as over half the residents earn over $100,000 a year.
29) Good work if you can get it. Musk/Tesla protesters are organized by sludgelickers making $7,800 for 8 hours "work."
30) President Trump has kicked off the new Atomic Age with a permit for a small nuke plant in Texas to support . . . wait for it . . . AI.
31) Speaking of AI, Elon Musk just made another $33 billion by consolidating X and his AI company.
IN INTERNATIONAL NEWS
32) Now it's Mediocre Britain bending the knee, as Kier Stutterer has admitted that the tariffs are "understandable." Ol Stutterer said "globalization is over." I think someone else said that a year ago.
33) Meanwhile, the EU has offered a "zero for zero" tariff deal on all industrial goods. The S&P gained $4 trillion on this news.
34) The US has revoked all visas from South Sudan because of its unwillingness to assist in the deportations of criminal invaders.
35) And, just like that the international trade deficit narrowed in February.
26) The populist revolt is upon us everywhere. In Germany, the AfD has surged into a tie for first place with the establishment toenail pickers. 37) Chy-na is facing utter demographic collapse in over half its provinces, particularly in the north. On the good side (for them), the ChiComs own and operate over 80 retail stores on US military bases. Of course, the ChiComs are blustering. And Trump made it clear, if they don't immediately remove their 34% tariffs, we will put a 50% tariff on all ChiCom goods. Oh, and quietly the ChiComs have begun to devalue their currency. Shouldn't it be increasing in value if they are winning this?
38) Hun soccer fans summon Lucifer during a game. We should have let the commies have Europe, and today, they would be both Christian and non-communist.
39) Remember that asteroid that was given a 3% chance of hitting earth in 2032? Now the revision is 4%, but to hit the moon instead with no effect on earth.
40) Now scientists think they may have found Noah's Ark.
IN ENTERTAINMENT NEWS
41) Lady Gaga's Saturday Night Live performance where she summoned a demon sparked fears she is a Satanist. Actually, probably not far from the truth. Many of these celebrities are involved in demonic stuff.
42) Duck Dynasty star Phil Robertson "not good" following his Alzheimer's diagnosis.
43) I just found this "dockumentary" (get it) called "Yachrock." Didn't know there was such a thing, but it refers to the late 70s/early 80s music of Michael McDonald, Steely Dan, Toto, Chris Cross, Kenny Loggins, and others. What is so interesting is how many of these players intersected not only as their own performers but as studio greats. Literally, some of these people like Toto's David Paich or the Porcaro brothers played on 3,000 or more albums.
44) Jay North, who played TV's "Dennis the Menace," dead of cancer at age 73.
45) "Blondie" drummer Clem Burke dead at 70.
47) Alexander Ovetchkin broke Wayne Gretzky's career record for goals with #895.
48) Speaking of numbers, Bill Belichik's girlfriend Jordon Hudson revealed her real age is 24 (he is 72).
IN CHINA VIRUS NEWS
49) Japan basically yanked the China Virus vax from the market and reworked their childhood vax policies after adverse effects from the China Virus vax.
AND FINALLY . . .
50) No Nads (Congressman Jerry Nadler) is Congress's "worst smelling man" according to colleagues. Well, I have on good authority from a local high-end clothing establishment that the staff hated seeing the late John McTurd come in because he smelled so bad. And he was trying on clothes, no less!
