I feel bad for the uninformed voters who were taken advantage of. Those working 2 or 3 jobs that don't have much time to read about the candidates or were mislead by their church (my father in law).

I don't feel bad for the Ramrousers of the world that actually listened and knew trump was planning this shit and voted for him. Those who actually want what is happening.

I hear ya… but I don’t feel bad for the uninformed either. I don’t care how many hours they work. Not paying attention, following blindly their church leaders or the faux news channel they watch on what little free time they have. Now they’re finding out. It’s too late. They should have “found out” first and voted as an informed individual. But no. They fucked around and now they can find out. We paid attention but we still have to eat the same shit sandwich. The fact that somebody else who didn’t pay attention and voted for the shit sandwich can eat it too without me feeling sorry for them. No disrespect to you or your FIL, but I’m not going to feel sorry for anybody who actually voted for this shit.

That’s what this entire thread is about. They fucked around and now they’re finding out.

American Automakers Statement on Trump Administration’s United Kingdom Trade Announcement

www.americanautomakers.org www.americanautomakers.org

American Automotive Policy Council President Matt Blunt today issued the following statement on the Trump administration’s United Kingdom trade announcement:



“The U.S. automotive industry is highly integrated with Canada and Mexico; the same is not true for the U.S. and UK. We are disappointed that the administration prioritized the UK ahead of our North American partners. Under this deal, it will now be cheaper to import a UK vehicle with very little U.S. content than a USMCA compliant vehicle from Mexico or Canada that is half American parts. This hurts American automakers, suppliers, and auto workers. We hope this preferential access for UK vehicles over North American ones does not set a precedent for future negotiations with Asian and European competitors,” said Governor Matt Blunt, president of the American Automotive Policy Council.

Devastating blow”: Company will no longer develop transformer production plant in the Ohio valley that was bringing in over 600 jobs

WEIRTON, W.Va. (WTRF) — The future of the proposed transformer manufacturing facility in Weirton is facing uncertainty after union leaders learned that the project is facing major challenges.

Earlier this week, union leaders with the United Steelworkers say they met with company officials with Cleveland-Cliffs to talk about plans for the transformer facility in Weirton.





What they thought was going to be a meeting to discuss bringing back workers to the idle mill turned into unexpected news of an indefinite delay for the project.

United Steelworkers staff representative John Saunders says the reason for the pause in plans is because of financial issues and the uncertainty surrounding tariffs.

He says the change in plans leaves a lot of questions about what’s next.

Louisiana officials lament loss of USDA money to help schools, food banks buy from local farmers • Louisiana Illuminator

Louisiana lawmakers are asking Congress to restore federal funding that allows schools and food banks to purchase locally grown produce and protein.

Louisiana lawmakers are asking Congress to bring back a $1 billion federal program that allows schools, child care programs, and food banks to purchase locally grown produce and protein.

The Local Food for Schools Cooperative Agreement Program and Local Food Purchase Assistance Cooperative Agreement Program, both administered through the U.S. Department of Agriculture, were axed in March as part of the Trump administration’s move to reduce federal government spending.

Louisiana Agriculture Commissioner Mike Strain said some small and mid-sized farms had already started planting and planning for their crops to be bought by schools or food banks through the defunded initiatives.

“[If they are lost], it would be detrimental for the schools, it would be detrimental for those small farmers because they really rely on this,” Strain said.

Louisiana will lose out on more than $18 million from the food-buying programs over the next three years, according to federal data. State Sen. Patrick McMath, R-Covington, authored Senate Concurrent Resolution 20 to urge Congress to put the funding back, specifically for schools.

I went to his Twitter page and he's also a right-wing radio blowhard talk show host, and far from being contrite he's still ridiculing liberals and making fun of all of the FAFO people flooding his board pointing out how Dear Leader killed his business. He's now claiming that Trump has "joined" Leftists and Libertarians in killing small businesses like his. He also says that he "tried" to run for POTUS himself in 2016 but nobody would vote for him (gee, I wonder why?) so you can't blame him for what's happening in the country. To be honest, from reading his twitter page he sounds like a really weird, oddball dude. In other words, a perfect Trumper.

Supreme Court justice's stunning premonition of Trump era: 'How Roman Republic fell'

Long before President Donald Trump ran for his first term in office, conservative Supreme Court Justice David Souter appeared to glimpse the future in a stunning warning of how democracy could die. The judge, who retired from the High Court in 2009, died last week at the age of 85. However, His...
