Ijebos your favorite criminal is not coming back anytime soon.

SCOTUS Chief Justice John Roberts has temporarily blocked the district court’s order that Salvadoran National Kilmer Abrego Garcia be returned to the U-S by midnight tonight.
He ordered Abrego Garcia’s lawyers to respond by Tuesday at 5pm ET.

SCOTUS decision lifts restraining order against Trump admin & takes Venezuelan deportee case away from Judge Boasberg (improper venue - the ACLU forum shopped). Says detainees entitled to some measure of due process but in the venue where they were held: TX, not DC. Bye Judge Boasberg!

It is statically impossible that the millions of people who took to the streets in all states even red states were all democrats.
raumdeuter:
70m people voted against Trump, So how hard will it be to get 500k of them to protest especially when they can be mobilized?

If the election is done again today the margin will even be wider

Tea party people were protesting and drawing crowd every weekend to their protest yet didnt stop Obama from winning his 2nd term
The Republican leader has roiled Wall Street and the global economy with a radical plan announced last week to zero out trade deficits with every other nation by imposing sweeping, indiscriminate import tariffs.

Lawmakers beset by constituents worried about investments and pensions have begun adding their voices to a growing clamor for Congress to reassert its power over the nation's purse strings and rein in the White House.

The seeds of a rebellion sprouted in an unlikely corner as Senator Ted Cruz -- a staunch Trump loyalist -- warned of a jobs crunch and rising inflation that would threaten the Republican hold on Congress.

"If we go into a recession, particularly a bad recession, 2026, in all likelihood politically, would be a bloodbath," he said on his Verdict podcast.

Unlike previous economic convulsions, the current crisis is entirely self-inflicted.

Trump claims he is merely correcting decades of supposed international trade abuses that have harmed the US economy, and boasts of the vast revenues he sees his tariffs generating.

Barring any last-minute reversal, his so-called "reciprocal" tariffs -- broad levies on all imports rather than sector-specific measures -- kick in Wednesday, with retaliatory tariffs from China expected a day later.

'Economic nuclear winter'

The president shrugged off the markets carnage, spending the weekend fundraising and golfing.

And while we are on the topic of dwindling livelihoods, cratering markets and on the edge of an economic depression, it is now even more important to note that it is not DEI, feminism or trans people causing any of this. Pause for a moment and think about that. How has the agitation for equity across the board caused you to lose your future? It hasn’t. But voting for the people who told you they were the problem is what has landed you here.

This old playbook where they sell you a bogeyman who is supposedly what’s wrong with your society and you get hyper focus to the point of extreme hatefulness that you vote your wellbeing away hoping you can hurt these people is tired and stale. And it will always hurt you the voter same as the ones you think you’re voting against. It will never affect the people selling the bogeyman theory. Time and time again across several centuries this has always been the truth. Y’all just never learn.

Sorry for the people in their 50s and 60s who thought they’d be able to retire in less than a decade. That’s not happening now.

3 Panel Appeals court Upheld Judge's decision forcing Trump to return the person deported to El Salvador(Garcia) by midnight.
Calling Trump's argument unconscionable

Trump's attorney should call Bemeruca to argue their case in front of these judges.
Because clearly no one understands it like Bemeruca.

This is some shameless stuff from any US administration.
Not who the US is.
Have not seen the rest. The 3 panel judge how many were Obama and Biden judges

Anyway the SCOTUS overruled the activist Appeals court by 5-4. They followed the law. The other court was just judicial activism.

In the real life I know they don't let you. The pig you are just makes it difficult for the pussy owner to challenge you.

And you don't just grab their pussy, but forcefully have sex with them despite them saying no. What's sadder though is you'd grab children too and claim they let you. Then you'd go about pointing your fingers at others.
As usual you don't get the man talk. If you are rich , they can let you grab them by the pussy. He never said he grabs them He meant some women no matter their status can do anything for men just because he is rich and successful
Find out what acts Tiger Woods was doing to his girlfriends, if he wasn't rich they would have never given him a minute if their time.

No ex president of America has involved himself in present administrations like Obama. He can come and contest for 3rd term since he don't want to leave the stage if that is possible.

This guy's wife is a Green Energy Executive whose mission is a Carbon free environment.

Justin and Emily Fisher, who reside in the exclusive Capitol Hill area, released a joint statement through their respective attorneys.

In it, they described themselves as longtime residents of the District who “voluntarily came forward and cooperated” with law enforcement.

“Our understanding is that the allegations in this case involve non-violent and non-destructive conduct that resulted in no property damage,” the statement read.

“We trust that the government and the court system will treat our clients with fairness and proportionality.”

”We look forward to ensuring their constitutional rights are upheld in accordance with the rule of law.”

Police say that several vehicles were marked with messages attacking Elon Musk, including one belonging to a teacher parked at her elementary school.

A total of six incidents were reported, including one vehicle that was vandalized on two separate occasions
The offense of defacing private property in D.C. carries a maximum penalty of a $5,000 fine and up to one year in jail.

I stopped buying American goods cos they are very expensive. Unless I buy through a dealer.
Also, here,all American goods that uses electricity burn your current even if you did the needful.
Don't know if it's a deliberate act. American goods are not uk friendly at all. Over the years, all I bought from American markets become useless and had to trash them. We can't use American hone appliances but can use EU.
We can't some Chinese. Never know why it's so.

So those hating on what trump is doing should know he is fighting for equality of American manufactured goods outside America as goods from other countries have no issues in America.
I don't live in America but I love some made in American goods but can't even buy and use them.

I got vitamix dry container 4yrs ago but it was useless as it was not uk compliant yet it was sold in pounds. I have the main vitamix yet it's dry container don't work in uk. Go to review and see how people like me were fooled. What's the rational behind that. People screamed. Yet it's called one global community.
You Americans really hate your country.

Talk is easy when you it doesnt affect you.

I have binned appliances worth more than 4k from America. The remaining, nobody uses them. Will do the needful one day. Yet,I can easily use Japanese, Chinese and of course EU products with ease.

Trump was an ex president during all of Biden’s presidency and he never once shut up about the administration. He was also very involved in the Republican Party, deciding the course of the party and the decisions they made. Holding rallies from State to state. Selling merch and spreading hate + propaganda.

How many Obama rallies have we seen since he left office?

The biggest scandal in his time is a tan suit.

Why would this administration not first ensure that manufacturing is up and running before placing heavy tariffs if he truly means to bring manufacturing back to America? Isn’t that senselessly placing the cart before the horse?

If you're stupid enough to think that you can build automobile plants within 6-12 months there's no point in asking you what you'll do with them when you find out that most of the material you need to build cars still comes from countries that are being heavily tariffed.

Trump didn't shut up cos he still want to contest. Also, the last administration humiliated him so much. He has only his voice as that was the only thing they couldn't manipulate.
Obama has finished his tenure, let him go and rest.
Even Joe don rest.He should work hard to influence change of the constitution for presidency so he can contest again.

Remembered when Clinton left office. I heard about Clinton again when he lead the team that rescued an American in north Korea.
That is the work of an ex president. Once in a while, grant interview on national matters as an elderly statesman.

Re: American Politics Thread: Trump Is The 47th President! by cococandy(f):
I’m sure Obama would rest if the republicans can keep his name out of their mouths. Obsessed is putting it mildly. He used “fancy” mustard for burger and it made the news. He took his wife on a date and they lost their minds. Too bad you guys couldn’t identify the micro aggressions for what they were. Trump is the conservative answer for who they felt was a n*gger overstepping his boundaries. And that’s why no matter how foul he gets, they’ll never disavow him.

Also Trump doesn’t need anyone to humiliate him. He does it all by himself. If Obama took classified information to his home and stored them in his bathroom where anyone could access them, the world would’ve imploded. But Trump did it and the investigation that followed is what you guys are calling humiliation. I have no words at the level of hypocrisy in the Republican Party.

I’m surprised you can expect Obama to behave like an elder statesman but have no smoke for Trump who acts like a petulant high school kid. Why is the standard higher for Obama?

Trump the leaky mouth who tweets 200 times a day instead of working is who we are somehow going to equate to Obama? There’s no comparison not even in the slightest.

He’s right. If he did a fraction of what Trump has done, he wouldn’t even have smelled the seat let alone continue to have support. It’s a sad state of American society.

Tariffs are a leverage Every other country is rushing to DC to negotiate. True you can't force nations to buy Teslas or other products, there are commodities that every nation produces and had to protect.
America can literally produce anything , most @ higher cost but quality is guaranteed.
If I need to buy anything American made I go for quality.
Whatever we get from Chinese for Africa market is just meant to work as bought new, most don't live up to their reputation. Chinese products for Europe and America market is good quality mainly because they are stringent on standards.
If America blocked Chinese imports , Africa will get high quality products. Cheap is expensive .

As long as there is demand,it will only take suppliers a short while to meet it.

as a nigerian, it is very funny

people sign MOUs all the time. they do big ceremonies where they shake hands. none of this means anything until the facility is completed.

at every point people are doing feasibility studies to ensure that the facility will actually be profitable

i posted a link the other day about the only phone assembly factory ever built in the us. built by google/motorola. shuttered in one year

as a person who worked in corporate nigeria, i am very very familiar with all this fanfare.

in my old place, they were bragging about building a refinery as far back as 2007. to this day they have not done it - because the numbers dont add up.

You just can't have zero tariffs on every product. If the tariffs were fair noone would be cursing Trump for enacting tariffs.
Whether China agrees to remove all taxes, America can't do the same because most of the manufacturing is outside of America and in China specifically . When Trump 1.0 introduced tariffs to China ,a lot of their companies moved to Vietnam. Others set up shop in Canada and Mexico where they could manufacture in China,then assemble in Mexico and send them tarif free to your doorstep.
I don't know why you people are bitter when Trump is basically saying. We are their biggest market ,we need to be able to sell to them too.
China ,and I've posted a long story about them. Won't allow you to operate without local partners . Difference.Once they know how your product is made they open a competitor across the street and compete with you .They will change the brand name so slightly ,a lot of buyers won't know . For instance, Samsung competitor becomes Sansung with exactly the same outward appearance. IOW they don't respect IP,they sort of encourage it

This is what Trump is battling. I want a bully who will stand up to China first.
China is the second largest economy yet WTO ranks it as a developing economy, under GATT they attract lower tariffs .
