In the interest of National Healing, Democrats Pledge to Stop Calling Trump and MAGA Conservatives Fascists and Racists

There is a Crisis, and Trump is fixing it.

It's called Diplomacy.

It’s a crisis if Trump says it’s a crisis, right?

Whatever he says is reality.

That’s how it works in authoritarian countries.

It's a crisis because Dems played catch and release while ignoring the border for 4 years.

Now it is being fixed.

Which has basically nothing to do with his tariff policy.

You’re just saying shit again, it doesn’t even make sense.

Was talking about illegal immigration, but he has ample legislative justification on tariffs as well.

All his tariff orders are backed by passed legislation.

Tell Democrat run cities to do their job, how are they doing away with free speech?

Many Dem cities have elected Dem Dumbasses, based on being permissive dumbasses, and dumbasses have flocked to them for their permissive environment. When I go through one, I try to get fuel before entering, so that I can drive through without stopping, generally. It never crossed my mind to move to one. I do have to go to Memphis on occasion, but that is strictly for concerts, and I am always armed, 15+1, with two additional magazines in the shoulder holster.

What legislation allows Trump to tariff Brazil because they’re prosecuting Bolsanaro for attempting a coup?

Trump signs order to justify 50% tariffs on Brazil

WASHINGTON (AP) — President Donald Trump signed an executive order Wednesday to impose his threatened 50% tariffs on Brazil, setting a legal rationale that Brazil’s policies and criminal prosecution of former President Jair Bolsonaro constitute an economic emergency under a 1977 law.

Trump had threatened the tariffs July 9 in a letter to President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva. But the legal basis of that threat was an earlier executive order premised on trade imbalances being a threat to the U.S. economy. But America ran a $6.8 billion trade surplus last year with Brazil, according to the U.S. Census Bureau.

A statement by the White House said Brazil’s judiciary had tried to coerce social media companies and block their users, though it did not name the companies involved, X and Rumble.

Read the order and the law. You asked for what basis, I gave you the basis. You won't accept it in any event so i won't waste time trying to explain it to you.

It’s an EMERGENCY!

The end of free government in Brazil? The censoring of its people via suppression of social media?

 

[Lesh]

Read for comprehension.
"They" refers to YOU people.
YOU hope for one.

Nope

How does that effect our economy?

Brazil goes south, we lose a big trade partner.

I wasn't aware the Independents were mis-using the courts. Can you point to example?
I have no problem with you, an individual expressing your personal opinion. I am agains the Government suppressing speech, though. While not a fan, I have to side with Justice Clarence Thomas and the rest of the Supreme Court on this one.

Depends on what you classify as 'suppressing speech.' If that means no one in government is allowed to express his/her opinion objecting to anything anyone does/says on the left, I just can't see how that is reasonable.

But if you see it as reasonable you have to apply it to everybody in government and not just those of the opposite party/ideology from you.

 

[M14 Shooter]

Nope

See?
All you do is lie.

If they are over the segment of government, that regulates that industry, and are trying to suppress with intimidation, via government position, it is indeed illegal, just as Clarence Thomas, writing for the Supreme Court majority court opinion said.

Please cite exactly what Clarence Thomas said and the context in which he said it.

I posted it yesterday, along with a bunch of other Supreme Court majority rulings (agreeing) on the subject and do not feel like looking it up for you again. Any chance of you using your computer to form a search argument, so that you can catch up, yourself?
