Those same people can’t see that their hard-earned $ are being spent on city services (to clean up the streets), police, jails/courts - and likely more that aren’t coming to mind just now.

But why didn’t we do this even before Trump? Because there is a large populace in the US that doesn’t want their “hard-earned $” to be “given away” to people who aren’t working. E.g., look at the recent discussions about adding even more job requirements for MedicAid recipients.

The original article has a link to an update. And the second part of his post provides the most current status.

I feel the same way about my neighbors who continue to fly their American flag at half-mast in his honor.

True for the long-term homeless. But if there is a “housing-first” system in place with social support services, the newly homeless have the chance to never have to live on the streets. Eventually, through attrition, living on the streets can be ended. (Just call me PollyAnna.)

Agree that it would need to be run by a NGO here as well, but we would also need the social services which are provided by taxpayers - i.e., government. Won’t happen here in my lifetime, sadly.

Also please tell anyone else you know about this stolen valor, and the fact that Trump is taking credit for something he tried to stop.

We played in due to drippy weather, but with all the windows, we felt as if we were on the porch.

{sarcasm}But - but - but - Trump told us that the “illegals” were taking American’s jobs, and American’s would be lining up to apply for these jobs. You don’t mean to tell us that he was lying, do you? {/sarcasm}

There is also the 10% duty which needs to be paid, I think by the customer though it's hard to decipher all the regulations!
This is outwith my control and has been set up by the US authorities.

This is due to the changes that come into effect on 29th August, where everything, no matter how small, is liable for import duty, and a flat rate from $80-200 can be applied. This will be charged to the sender by Royal Mail and needs to be paid to the US customs.

Just received this announcement from a musician in Scotland, which underscores the impact to purchasers in the U.S. - That’s You and Me, folks!

“Hi folks just a heads up that due to changes in import duty to the US I won't be able to post anything out after the 21st August…

When Zelenskyy said that Ukraine can't hold elections during wartime, he was referring to the Ukrainian constitution, which specifically bars it.

The twice-impeached criminally seditious traitor and 34-time CONVICTED FELON RAPIST is far too stupid to realize that our constitution DOES NOT.

If Trump had nothing to hide, he wouldn't force Mike Johnson to threaten to SHUT DOWN THE HOUSE until September to block a vote on the Epstein files.

I read that some Europeans are calling the Republican Party the AFP or American Fascist Party, and that is how I shall refer to it from now on as it is 100% accurate.
