Ag Secretary Brooke Rollins said easing restrictions for noncitizen farmworkers is a top priority, as labor shortages continue to strain farmers across the U.S. Changes to the H-2A visa program and new legal pathways could offer relief soon.

Yeah, the crash and burn direction.

Deport all immigrants THEN, worry about the crops being harvested.

You sound like a Democrat from 1865 all upset about losing your SLAVES.
Poor dOPey.

Feb 17, 2025 — The Trump administration is working to recall hundreds of employees tasked with oversight of the nation's nuclear weapons after they were fired Thursday.

The firings reportedly affected up to 350 workers at the National Nuclear Security Administration (NNSA), an agency within the Energy Department that oversees the nuclear weapons stockpile. Later in the week, however, NNSA leadership scrambled to recall nearly all of the fired workers.

Why not?

The idea is to pursue the best policy for America

Or at least it is for trump and MAGAs

Libs dont seem to care about America so they do crazy things like flooding the country with ten of millions of migrants

Did you see where one of China's conditions for negotiating is that Trump is NOT there? Obviously he and his flock will think it's because he's awesome and China is afraid of him, but obviously it's because they can't believe a word he says, and they're just not into his flamboyant showbiz crap. They're serious.

Why da fuck should I care? Im not China's Bitch like you

Covid proved why we need to get away from depending on China. But you grovel to them. Guess on ones knees is a Leftist Cult thing. Yes that was directed at you.

Too funny.
Before, none were any good.
Now, maybe not?

FAKE news or FOX fact?
Answer: BOTH.

Too funny.
Before, none were any Trump and his cult cheer good.
Now, maybe not?

What the hell does that word salad even mean? Could you at least attempt to write coherent English?

I’m sorry you dont approve of the way trump is handling things

Well actually, not really

You are a complete trump hater and thats ok

Since 1985.
But Trump's been a lying grifter, for years before that.

We know.
It will be more of a clusterfuck than Trump's first term.

Trump is doing a great job of ending the migrant invasion and deporting those who are already here

And, dont be too disappointed if he manages to win the trade war also

 

[j-mac]

I fixed it.

You did? That was the fix? Wow...

BS.

So, you think you won the last election?

News from the ground since I work there. You have about 10 days to save Christmas. Factories have stopped production of tons of product lines. There is no time to produce before Christmas if this isnt resolved quickly. Sell your stock in consumer products soon if this isnt resovled.

Also if you are tied or invested in any construction please note: your summer costs are about to skyrocket as production for building materials is a shorter lead time and costs are going up while I am typing.

Also, travel is plummeting. If you are invested or employed by the travel industry (airlines, hotels, destinations) start bracing for a catastrophe. The bookings are down 70% this month. Yikes.

We're trying to replace manufacturing and supply chains overnight. We pretty much HAVE to do it overnight, because we have so successfully DESTROYED positive working global trade relationships we had built over the last 80 years. The world knows it can no longer trust us.

Meanwhile, pretty much every informed estimate I have seen is saying that it will take six to 12 years to flesh the whole thing out, including the supply chains. And I have seen NOTHING that addresses how we're going to navigate and survive that transition by ourselves.

You don't destroy things AND THEN figure the rest out. You plan ahead so that there can be a smooth transition. I thought pretty much any fucking intelligent adult knew that. Oops.

I am still resisting the conspiracy theory that he is purposely bringing us down so that he can take complete control of the ashes, a la another guy in history. But for fuck's sake, I can understand the sentiment.

Trump did not sin by a landslide. He does not have a mandate.

I meant "Trump did not win by a landslide."

"Trump did not win by a landslide."

It doesn't matter. Tell them that he won by one of the narrowest vote margins in history, and they'll deflect to the Electoral Votes.

I think they really do believe he won by a popular vote landslide. That's how cults are -- they run with their own version of reality.

 

[JimH52]

What is the one (1) consistent common denominator in virtually ALL of Trump's relationships? The ONE thing he will ALWAYS complain about?

It's about how he is "treated". If he feels he has not been "treated" well enough, he gets angry and acts out. This is something that is happening in his head alone. He is the one who decides on the spot if he's being "treated" well enough. If not, here we go.

So in this case, he has obviously felt for decades that he has somehow been taken advantage of by other countries. That they're getting the better of him somehow. So now he's responding in the only way he knows: He's attacking without looking at a bigger picture. He attacks, sees that the results are bad, and then changes course.

I know that Trump's fans think that they'll see a clear, tangible and material difference in their lives once Trump has exacted his revenge on all those countries. The sad thing here is, on balance, they will not. There are larger issues that influence the vector of an economy.

trump is a petulant man/child. His impulsiveness will one day be very costly to the world. A convicted felon who is a recognized sexual assaulter/rapist cannot be expected to act with any logic on rationale. I am most disappointed in Marco Rubio. You would think he would walk away from this clown show. But I guess he is counting on being the next MAGA star when Donald is finished screwing over the nation.

 

[Mac1958]

We know.
It will be more of a clusterfuck than Trump's first term.

My guess is that he'll end up pulling out with some excuse and declaring some kind of victory before much longer.

The rubes will dance in the streets while America is humiliated, and Trump will say it was the greatest thing in the history of things.

Has a country of our importance EVER so quickly reversed its global reputation? And that's not coming back after this.
