"WASHINGTON, July 12 (Reuters) - U.S. President Donald Trump on Saturday said he might revoke talk show host Rosie O'Donnell's U.S. citizenship after she criticized his administration's handling of weather forecasting agencies in the wake of the deadly Texas floods, the latest salvo in a years-long feud the two have waged over social media. "Because of the fact that Rosie O'Donnell is not in the best interests of our Great Country, I am giving serious consideration to taking away her Citizenship," Trump wrote on his Truth Social platform, invoking a deportation rationale the administration has used in attempts to remove foreign-born protesters from the country."

Trump issues executive order stripping O'Donnell, Nancy Pelosi, Chuck Schumer, Jack Smith, and others of their citizenship on "national security" grounds. 2. Affected people sue and obtain an injunction blocking Trump's order. 3. Supreme court reverses the injunction until they can consider the constitutionality of the order. 4. Supreme court never gets around to ruling on the order, effectively handing Trump another new power he can use to ensure no-one can oppose his dictatorship.

Phil1111 1,174 #1887 July 15 (edited) The US King sure has an alternative view on tariffs. His big announcement today was that the US was going to impose 100% tariffs on Russia if it doesn't achieve peace within 50 days. I have yet to hear the question asked or an answer proposed on how thats going to work. How does the US collect a "tariff" or "secondary tariff" on a transaction between two other parties, two other countries? When Russia sells oil to China and ships it via a pipeline. How exactly are the rocket surgeons in the WH going to figure a bill and get it paid? Putin must be laughing his ass off today. Xi is probably thinking the weed in the WH is very good. Trump can't get a 10% tariff to stick there is no way 100% on China or India will stick on US imports. Edited July 15 by Phil1111 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I took it to mean that if a country is trading with Russia you guys will tariff them 100% on their trade with you. If done correctly, secondary tariffs could be a useful tool. Of course Trump and competence don’t really do together. Edited July 15 by nigel99 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I thank you for the opportunity.It's not every day a man get to.. But it's extremely late can't think streight so Good night. The complete quote by Ralph Waldo Emerson is: "It is only as a man puts off all foreign support, and stands alone, that I see him to be strong and to prevail." From ContextUS This quote emphasizes the importance of self-reliance and individual strength, suggesting that true power comes from within and not from external validation or support.
