Later in the clip Bessent says he just divested from his soybean farm “this week.” I would love to know what that actually means when he opens by saying he still runs it and he has family working on it.

Affordability concerns are real because:
- Tariffs raise import costs
- Deportations make it harder to harvest crops
- Attacking Obamacare hikes premiums
- Budget deficits raise mortgage payments
- Undermining the Fed risks inflation.
It's not a hoax; it's a policy choice.

I for one find it very hard to believe the military has a list of alleged drug runners to blow up at will.
Also, if they're capable of tracking these boats in order to blow them up, surely they're able to track them to wherever they land and apprehend them there instead of just murdering them?

This article opens with a 3-year-old forced to represent herself in court. We live in a fundamentally sick country.
There is no sight that more efficiently puts the lie to immigration “court” than the common sight of children “representing themselves.” Children too small to climb into the chair, children in pajamas who don’t know where they are, children not yet old enough to speak.
