Inside Trump’s chaos economy: MAGA’s Epstein meltdown, vaccine sabotage lawsuits, Texas flooding deaths, and a president who can’t stop embarrassing himself on the world stage
Glad Mary is back and upright. This news was the lightest in her considerable bunch of news:
"In the background, WestJet, Canada’s second-largest airline, just dropped all winter U.S. routes due to a collapse in travel demand under Trump, instead sending planes to Cuba, Mexico, and Panama. This is what happens when your country’s brand becomes “authoritarian circus” and tourists decide they’d rather sip rum in Havana than explain to CBP why they’re visiting Disney."
In the meantime a little more farce for the fodder:
China has banned precious minerals mined and processed in China from entering the US for weapons production (they will still send supplies to US EV car companies cuz business is business).
Without rare earth minerals and their extensive processing (which China has over 50 patents on) the US cannot make drone missiles that rely on these special metals.
US weapons are outdated relying on expensive fighter jets and heavy bombs delivered by large aircraft. The new war tactics have evolved into accurate drone missiles. Produced by the thousands in Chinese factories with assembly lines of robots like car manufacturing. This all sucks of course no matter what, but it makes sense that the US is pursuing an isolationist strategy because we are years behind in modernizing production for almost anything that can compete on the world market. China has complete cooperation with the whole of Africa after a council of negotiations granting all African Nations tariff free goods from China.
My personal observation is that to save face, Trump and Steve M) are trying to distract US citizens from the broader implications of our flailing world trade market with brutal police tactics on the home front. This is such a shit show.
The US will run out of materials to make effective weapons to provide Israel with or defend our own military. It is peace by decline in weapon availability. My biggest concern is for Ukraine. I just watched this explanation by Asian pod caster revealing how the Chinese operate with slow effective stealth. Not wanting to obliterate one of their top customers...(us) but slowly leveraging their opponent into submission...also brilliant.
The “vibes” comment got the forth and loudest chuckle. There’s no doubt you’re recovering nicely - back to nailing it , hooray🙌.
The saying it -like it is , Mary , is the best cynical humor I’ve ever heard , you’d appreciate (hopefully more ) if you’d met my partner, Jospeh. It took me awhile to understand ‘close to the bone’ .
I remember some movie where the KKK took off their hats too soon and who they were …shocked the onlookers…
Yes, people are ever so s l o w l y realizing the mess, the incompetency, the design AND designers as well. Here’s hoping for those numbers to swell.
This ‘biggest lesson’ afforded us ..unforgivable deaths, loss of hard won honor, and dangerous cozying/aligning with despots ..which should also teach many, hopefully triple the more, that paying attention and expecting accountability -especially for the latter - is first and foremost and inside job.
“The enemy within ..” was THE most accurate confession ever.
Mistakes seldom repeat themselves unlike history, least we look in the mirror, and acknowledge …WE.CAN.DO.BETTER.THAN.THIS.
A team is only as good as its weakest member. The stats of this current team spelled losers one and all, ‘vetted in, vouched and voted for’ ….

Brilliant as usual, Ms. Geddrey!
