Tariffs, Constitution, HAMAS
Once again, Trump takes out his Tariff Pen, setting 25% Import Tax on foreign Steel and Aluminum. The last time Trump imposed a 25% Tariff, The Market crashed and Trump rescinded the order before day’s end.
‘Still, the new taxes on foreign steel
and aluminum and Trump’s other import tax plans – including his promise to raise
American tariffs to match those charged by other countries -- are
likely “to boost U.S. inflation and weigh on global growth this year,’’
Jennifer McKeown and Hamad Hussain of Capital Economics wrote Monday. AP
**Quick follow-up for yesterday: Yesterday I reported on the looming
Constitutional Showdown, citing various sources. Please see:210
Today the American Bar Association
(ABA), the renowned Legal Fraternity, which only issues public statements in
drastic Legal situations, joined the fray:
‘American
Bar Assoc. –Daily Beast: Chaotic,
Attack on Constitution, Affront to Rule of Law’
The ABA’s Statement is quite stunning,
While not specifically Naming Trump, it makes clear that they are discussing This
Administration by referring to Inauguration Day and describing recent actions
taken by the White House and Musk/DOGE.
***GOP Rolls Over for Trump- Tulsi
Gabbard
According to some reports Tulsi Gabbard
couldn’t explain the exact role of the Director of National Intelligence.
Further, she reportedly struggled to explain the relationship between DNI and
the National Security Council, and the President. It Is all a bit Confusing
but, if you’re seeking appointment as DNI, you should really have a good grasp
of the relationship between the DNI and
the NSC, and how that relates to, and interacts with POTUS.
Regardless of Gabbard’s difficulties,
it appears the Senate GOP will Roll-Over at Trump’s Command and appoint her as
DNI.
Along these same lines, we really
should remember that the Middle East remains a potentially explosive
international powder keg.
**Hamas suspends Hostage Release. HAMAS
Hamas publicly
disgraced itself (if further disgrace for that outfit is possible), by parading
The Hostages in public display, on Stage, surrounded by Rifle-toting
combatants, before hundreds of screaming lunatics. Further outrage was
generated as the freed Hostages were found to be emaciated and sick, in need of
imminent medical attention.
Then, adding insult
to injury, Hamas Suspended further Hostage Release claiming Israel has violated
Conditions of Truce.
It’s hard to be
sympathetic to Gazans when this kind of behavior is prevalent. For his Part,
Pres. Trump said that if ‘All Hostages’ are not released by Saturday Noon, ’All
Hell’ will break out. Fox News
If so, sorry to have to say, but, they bring
it upon themselves. Release All Hostages.
