Summary

Trump’s tariffs, a dangerous mix of elitism, government overreach, and constitutional betrayal. 
Choose liberty, not their forced austerity.  The hive mind of a free marketplace outsmarts any Oval Office “stable genius” — let freedom reign!
 
What Made America Great and Why It’s Not So Great Anymore
     Was America made great by taxes and regulations?  Conservatives are pushing forced austerity for Trump but it was liberty FROM government that Made America Great
     From 56% to 4%: The Staggering Collapse of American-Made Clothes…and what did government do to cause it?
 
Washington, Not China or ANY Foreign Government, is the True Enemy of American Freedom
     Is American crony capitalism patriotic?
       Are American billionaires teamed with government better than the Chinese equivalent?
 
Trump says “Let Them Eat Cake”: Your Children Don’t Need Cheap Dolls or Pencils
Trump has decided that you should have fewer choices that are more expensive. Who is he to decide? With Melania’s $35,000 purse in the spotlight, is this a “let them eat cake” moment?
 
States Strike Back: 13 States Sue Trump Over Tariff Tyranny.  Do They Have a Case?
Is his emergency declaration a power grab, and will the courts stop him?  Here’s both sides…
 
Smoot-Hawley 2.0?
Forget the Ferris Bueller lecture.  This is what the Smoot-Hawley Tariff Act of 1930 was about and how it tanked the economy.  Will history rhyme?

55:43
How Many Times Do Trump & His People Have to Tell You “You’ll Be Happier If You’re Poor” Before You Realize THEY WANT YOU TO OWN NOTHING
     Shipping company CEO says Trump’s tariffs, if not ended, will arrive like an asteroid strike, an extinction level event for small businesses that may be finally put out of business as Trump does “non-essential 2.0”.
     As a consumer you may not be able to afford a $250 toaster, but Trump’s administration says you’ll be happier if his pals can move the toaster factory back to America and get richer quicker.  It’s the Trump versions of Klaus Schwab’s “own nothing, be happy”
 
1:19:56 Winning?  Not Just Canada, But Now Australia Sees Blowback Against Conservatives Because of Trump
 
1:34:02 Driverless Semi’s — No Human Co-Pilot — Hit the Road in Texas

1:41:31 Venice is Sinking — and it’s man-made, but NOT climate
 
1:48:34 Media Panic & Fear About Measles — But Their Own Stats Contradict Them
 
1:57:56 Tulsi & RFKj Start New Push to Sell “Lab Leak”
They said their primary mission was to restore “trust” in their institutions. 

2:04:24 Zelensky’s Drone Blitz on Sacred Churches and Israel’s Starvation Siege: The War on Civilians Escalates
The world is spiraling into chaos as warfare turns even more vicious.
     Ukrainian drones, under Zelensky’s command, are ruthlessly targeting Russia’s historic Orthodox churches, burning sacred sites to ashes in a chilling assault on faith and culture.
     Yemen’s relentless missile strikes with civilian lives as “collateral damage”
     Meanwhile, Israel bombs a humanitarian flotilla carrying food and medicine to starving Gazans, leaving children to suffer in a brutal blockade.  Is this the dawn of a new era where sacred spaces and starving innocents are just pawns in a deadly game?
 
2:31:48 Trump “Follow the Constitution” Comment: The Problem is NOT What Media Says     
Trump’s comments weren’t about whether he must follow the Constitution but about whether foreign citizens, legal or illegal, have rights.     Here’s why we don’t need to destroy the Constitution to deport millions of illegals.
 
2:47:33 Can The President Refuse to Spend Money Congress Approved?
What court decisions and experience tell us (two very different things) 

2:53:37 Trump’s Imperial Ambitions & Pentagon’s Duplicitous Panama MOU
Trump refuses to rule out using military force to seize Greenland, hinting at “cherishing” its tiny population while eyeing it for “national security.” But the shocks don’t stop there— two-faced Panama memorandums that say one thing in Spanish and another in English with the English version now embargoed.

What was it about America that was great?

2:16.5

I mean, obviously implicit in that is that America

And, of course, Trump was saying, well, okay, you're not going to have 30 dolls. You'll have two or three or whatever. And we'll talk about that. I don't agree with
