    Putin steamrolls Trump

    Speaking with Fox & Friends Tuesday morning about his efforts to negotiate a peace deal between Ukraine and Russia, the president claimed that he had settled seven wars. I’ve solved seven wars. We ended seven wars,” Trump said “I thought this would be one of the easier ones, and this has turned out to be the toughest one.” India, Pakistan, these were big ones, also. All big ones. And some going for 31, 32 years. One for 35 years,” he continued. “I got them all done. But this one is the one that is the most difficult, and I thought it would be an easy one. I hope President [Vladimir] Putin is gonna be good, and if he’s not it’s going to be a rough situation. And I hope that President [Volodymyr] Zelenskiy will do what he has to do. He has to show some flexibility also. The thing is a mess.” I’ll have two of what ever this con man is drinking. 😂 Dementia is real. He is declining fast. Time for the autopen. Midterms are coming.

  3. All seriousness Newsweek got that all wrong. Memphis, Durham, St. Louis, Chicago, NOLA, Shreveport and Charlotte have killings almost every day. Beaumont is not even close.

    Diaz was safe at home and that would have won the game. Brown getting out of the runner on third with no outs was amazing.

    I for one would like him to enforce pressure on Russia. Try applying what Lindsey Graham suggested.

    Economy

    Many things affect prices. Wages, government spending, disease among crops/livestock/poultry, weather, war, energy, tariffs… Inflation is never caused by a single item problem. The current tariffs aren’t effecting prices at this time. This is a shell game being played by producers/sellers to squeeze a little more profit, and a general excuse for poor company performance. Good management teams are doing just fine as the markets attest. Tariff costs will hit. But, mainly Brazil. The others are already incorporated into costs. The effective, all-inclusive tariff rate is about 13-15%. Producers are basically absorbing the 10%. With the passage of the BBB, real wage increases (increases minus inflation) should wind up around $3500-$10k/yr. for the average family making ~$70k/year. Obviously, those not paying income tax now will have minimal benefit. That’s where increased medical costs may hurt them. Medical costs will need to be addressed, or there will be major sticker shock. I’d expect produce, coffee, chocolate, and beef all to rise in price. But beef is as much due to the screwworm invasion, drought, and low domestic cattle numbers as it is tariffs on Brazil. We only import 20% of our beef from Brazil. Shelf stable items should remain about the same as what they are currently. I still expect a 50 basis point cut by the Fed in September. I could be wrong. But, they’re behind the 8 ball as I mentioned earlier.

    We don't want 0%. 2%-2.5% is the target inflation. Trump has reduced Bidens hyperinflation from 9% down to his 2.7%. Still a tiny bit of work to do but it came WAY down from Biden. Gas is very cheap for summer driving too. It normally goes way up but it did not this summer. Yeah, Trump did that!

  11. About time. All inactive TS clearances should be reviewed for need & access. All active TS clearances for separated personnel should be rechecked—including their digital footprint, and all the way down to their third sister’s aunt’s adopted cat. Check the shelter and microchip as well. This stuff has been ridiculous. I had to turn mine in upon separation. That’s the way it should be for all. Expediency/cost be damned.

    Military strategists are not needed. Negotiators are. Why do you want this war stopped. You said nothing when Biden escalated it by supplying $billions and equipment, causing the deaths of millions of civilians, but Trump says he will end it on day one and Now you want it stopped. Why? I’ll tell you why…..FAKE OUTRAGE.

    I am not a military strategist so I dont know, but he is the President and he has advisors. Someone said that he should place sanctions on them. It is funny because he said he would end the war on day 1
