I saw his mother's post a couple days ago on social media. Since I couldn't find a news story about it, I thought maybe it's fake news like so much that proliferates on social media. Nope. It's real.

Tell them Joly!

 

More than half of Americans, including one in four Republicans, think President Donald Trump is "too closely aligned" with Russia, as he radically realigns U.S. foreign policy, a new Reuters/Ipsos poll shows.

The move rattled markets as investors feared economic fallout. Trump plans to remove steel tariff exemptions and increase aluminum tariffs.

It's not the Chinese tariffs on farm goods wallstreet is scared of. It's Trump's tariffs in general that's causing the sell-off.

Wasn't this announced last week? Feels like old news to me.

I have a 16 year old T420 that's survived numerous falls drops spills and still ticking to this day and I love it. It's the best damn keyboard to type on. Only Thinkpads for me.

His best campaign was his first one. His term started with so much promise. Alas promises he didn't keep. Like taxing the rich. Tried to finally make up for it last year but that's a little too late Justin.

"oh no. I'm a princeton grad. I'm rich. I work for Elon and Trump. I have authority over everyone here" kind of mentality.
