The anti-tariff priesthood is back.

They call Trump’s tariffs a failure, even as their own data show higher revenue and less reliance on China.

some serious propaganda there, plus Navarro was neutered long ago and is irrelevant. But now the war is over, inflation is under control, and the ballroom back on track it's time to get back on the tariff cheerleading train. So predictable.

---

It's comical how stupid the Cult is to believe that the tariffs are "working".

The propaganda would make Joseph Goebbels proud!

---

It's also comical (and disturbing) to see movielover going on about "Democrat Lawfare" while ignoring what Trump's DOJ is doing. Fortunately, they've proven to be fairly inept so far.

---

he's definitely on a rampage about lawfare and showing signs of significant, almost super-lib-level-like paranoia about some future dystopia only over a year into Trumps presidency. Imagine the paranoia after the midterms? Meanwhile Trump is writing a tome on lawfare….. so the irony is remarkable.

WEAPONIZATION: Powell trespassed Pirro's prosecutors. Boasberg blocked the search warrants. Tillis blocked Warsh's confirmation. A rogue Obama judge & a RINO senator built him a perfect escape route. Kevin Warsh inherits the Fed. America inherits the bill. pic.twitter.com/IGD5MSNmoU

Why do you REPEATEDLY repost MISINFORMATION from a clown named Amuse?

Last month, during a closed-door hearing before a federal judge, a top deputy from Pirro's office conceded that they hadn't found any evidence of a crime in their investigation of the headquarters project.

Posting this garbage is a poor reflection on your credibility here.

Are you really this gullible?

PS. This is the TARIFF thread.

The SPLC is one of the greatest political scams… pic.twitter.com/xSrHgzcg3O

So...

USAID - CIA cutout
ActBlue - scam
SPLC - scam
Hospices today - high % odds scams (LA, Minneapolis)
Solar - high % scam

What are the odds the SPLC is a one-off?

Trump u - scam
Trump watch - scam
Trump Steaks - scam
Trump Coin - scam
Trump bone spurs - scam

Did you donate to the SPLC?

So... the difference between illegal or allegedly illegal behavior, and small private business ventures that fail or succeed.

- USAID - CIA cutout
- ActBlue - scam - allegedly illegal, managers bailing en mass
- SPLC - scam - 21 criminal indictments
- Hospices today - high % odds scams (LA, Minneapolis), 500 closed just in Los Angeles in one month, alleged illegal behavior
- Solar - high % scam, some potentially illegal; for example, vast majority of one program in California routed solar monies to Democrat voter registration

What are the odds the SPLC is a one-off?

Trump University - private business, closed, legal
Trump watch - small biz venture, legal
Trump Steaks - small biz venture, closed, legal
Trump Coin - business, legal
Trump bone spurs - wealthy and connected tactics, legal

Are you sitting down?

There are 2 million NGOs/nonprofits in America that handle $3.7 trillion per year.

The American people pay for at least 1/2 of it.

How many other SPLC like groups?

We’re being robbed to pay for the destruction of America.

It all needs to end.

What's the purpose, no traceability? If government agencies spend it, it's open to FOIA requests.

Someone recently claimed that working at NGOs is a popular occupation in New York City which flabbergasted me.

The Tides Center, based in San Francisco, receives massive federal grants, buries the ultimate recipients behind multiple layers of 501(c)(3)s, and quietly re-grants the money to activist allies.

For those with terribly poor reading comprehension.

This is the TARIFF THREAD.

At this point I am just assuming any NGO is a money laundering scam.

Incredible. USAID was funding the SPLC through an organization called the Tides Center, based in San Francisco.

From 2016 through 2024, USAID granted $27 million to the Tides Network to “strengthen global civil society organizations, promote transparency, accountability, citizen… pic.twitter.com/sFlGW7FQTE

The Deep State and left went after Elon Musk and DOGE for exposing USAID. They went after Kash Patel for exposing the SPLC and its connection to USAID.

Hey, SPLC has nothing to do with the tariff thread!

Wrong forum!

and they were having so much fun. Talk about a side bar circle J.

Guys, let's try to stay on topic - Tarrifs. Other threads probably exist for the NGO / fraud issue, and if they don't someone can create one.

He's right. Why deal with a clueless administration that is a joke and in moral decay? It makes both sides look bad.

Canada has got more cards in their negotiation especially if Trump blows up Iranian infrastructure and they retaliate by blowing up GCC oil and gas production. Canada has lots of oil, aluminum, fertilizer etc.

How to take a bad negotiating position, and make it worse. Pouting and smearing.

USA 32 Trillion
Japan 4.4 Trillion
Canada 2.5 Trillion

Yeah, but there is always China Skippy to step in and the Asian block:

"Based on 2026 projections, if the U.S. nominal GDP is approximately $32.5 trillion, China's economy is estimated to be over $20.8 trillion, making it roughly 64% of the size of the U.S. economy. While the U.S. leads in nominal GDP, China is the world's largest economy based on Purchasing Power Parity (PPP), accounting for 1.37x the size of the U.S. in those terms."

PPP, damn. Flush goes your argument. The red states with their their poor production and policies hurt us worldwide.

Can they wait a longer time for not-top-shelf equipment? Can they maintain two separate fleets and training?

Why agree to trade deals, and then welch? Is it worth it for us to maintain a huge trade deficit, and pay for their defense, for MIC orders?

You know exactly why that thread got locked. It's because you and SBGold cannot control yourselves.

Sadly, you're terribly mistaken.

I was posting economic data, charts, and analysis while others were off-topic with their personal pettiness.
In fact, I started this thread in February 2025 and it had over 284,000 views and over 2,800 replies.

It was a great thread because it lacked the typical political BS that we see dominate this forum.
It clearly wasn't your cup of tea.
