Men who were falsely accused of rape by women and feminists not only go through the pain of being accused of rape, publicly shamed and go through legal stress to clear their names. The school they attend also expelled them. When the acc confessed she made up the rape allegation, nothing was done to her, and to make matters worse, the school won't give the victim(guy) a chance to continue his studies and graduate.

But Carmelo Anthony, who killed Austin M... He was not expelled; he was given the privilege to graduate because he is black.

Contrary to what some leftist here will say, being black is a privilege.

Who cares what the world thinks?
Trump cut out all the useless wasteful freebies for the leeches of the world. They can have Putin, Xi or Kim.

US is still doling out billions of aid to the rest of the world . Only this tine it's not liberals dictating what projects to fund based on their feelings. Their slush funds where they spend more on istrative expenses than deliver actual aid is drying up fast

ABC news reported that consumer prices rose 2.3% in April.
Official statement was that inflation for April 2025 fell to its lowest since March 2021 to 2.3% below the projected 2.4%.

Same thing ,one has a negative connotation tailored for liberal democrat to continue believing this is the worst economy ever.

CNN meanwhile had a catchy headline.

George Clooney kicked off Biden running out of the race by penning an oped. He had known Joe Biden for decades,yet Joe at one time Joe didn't recognize him

That's Jack Tappers book ,The Original Sin . His book uncovers very startling evidence that Joe Biden decline was covered up by Jake Tapper.
Same book has Joe Biden staffers saying they would have to put him on a wheelchair ,but couldn't do it before the elections had he got any accidental fall.


There must be more doozy stuff to be revealed by Jake Tapper CNN Washington DC chief correspondent.Who shamelessly covered up for Biden ,but is now set to rake in millions for exposing what he lied about for 4 years.

Obama mess. He tried to overthrow Assad --- funded ,armed and trained moderate jihadists who would later ISIS.The rest is history We have a former Al Qaeda No 10 most wanted terrorist as Syria President . Thanks to Obama interference and creation of the Arab spring. Catastrophic foreign policy failure which no single journalist has ever asked him to take responsibility for the murders,beheadings , rape ,slave trade and the rise of the Islamic caliphate.

Syrian President is proposing to build a Trump Tower in Damascus. Now he also wants an Ukraine style mineral deal with Trump in return for easing of sanctions. He is also meeting Trump in Saudi Arabia.

I would hope that this jihadist president ( who will most likely implement Sharia eventually) will be forced to protect the Kurdish people and the Yazidis.And also expel the Turkish army from the north western Syrian territories it controls

The only reason Apple went abroad is because they can manufacture for cheap and hope to bring it, when you have to Bring it into America and pay a tariff on it, the advantage you were seeking in China has already been eroded

It then makes sense to manufacture in America and not having to deal with supply chain shipping issues when there is no advantage to manufacturing abroad anymore

That is why some manufacturers are starting to come back into the country. That is why even the EU placed a tariff on China or why are they fighting back against China?

It took 40yrs of lax leadership to get to this point, Its mischievous to be asking why have 40yrs of ruins not been fixed in 40days

The ruler the rest of the world respect, who wont be their mumu but stand for America

Which ones have come back into the US?

This is the easiest thing, anyone with basic economics knowledge will know this

To produce Apple phones in China hits the market $1000, The phone produced in US costs $2000
If the U.S. places tariffs on iPhones made in countries like China, the cost of importing them rises. For example, a 100% tariff on a $1,000 iPhone adds $1000 to it making it the same as the phone produced in the US. Apple can either absorb that cost or it to consumers increasing the price

The Chinese iPhone no longer has a price advantage over the US iPhone

Apples reason for moving to China in the first place is to increase its profit and sell cheaper. tariffs make this impossible and they start manufacturing locally

You see very simple, If not for TDS I am sure you can know this, Your PM knows this which is why he also puts a tariff on Chinese products

I have been trying to reply to this nonsense for days. But spambot no gree. I found a way around it.

The US maintains a 10% tariff on UK imports, suggesting that while the US gains significant concessions, it has not fully opened its market in return.
Overall, US benefits economically through better market access and lower UK tariffs since the pm agreed to lower tariffs on US goods from 5.1% to 1.8%, making US proucts more competitive in the UK market.

There is a huge improvement, even if the UK s for only 3% of US imports.

Succinctly put.

I have already giving an example here like months ago as I do complain bitterly about the trade imbalance. Love buying goods from America but the tarrifs are crazy. Electrical is nonsense. They will tell you buy one with UK plug but will deliberately not produce it yet selling one with American plug. You do step down still it drains your money like no other thing. Sometimes your house will go dark. I trashed all of them.

Some people are so mad about the trade deal while some just accepted it. Some are gradually changing their options about trump as Starmer is doing exactly what they are accusing trump of doing.
Tighter immigration laws, what trump has been doing. So now, what's the diff?

Told one why are you angry at trump when Supreme Court said man for man and woman for woman? Isn't that what trump has been preaching?

In September 2019, Bill Gates, through the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, purchased 1,038,674 shares of BioNTech SE at a pre-public offering price of $18.10 per share totaling approximately $18.8 million. In the third quarter of 2021, the Foundation sold 86% of its BioNTech holdings (890,000 shares) at an average price of around $300 per share, yielding approximately $260 million in profit. Additionally, the Foundation sold 2 million shares prior to Q3 2021, and the total profit from these sales, including earlier transactions, is estimated to exceed $300 million, though exact figures for all sales are not fully detailed in available sources.



Now thats very good business deal at face value. A documented fact.

Let's see what else Bill Gates did in 2019.

he Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation co-sponsored Event 201, a high-level pandemic simulation exercise held on October 18, 2019, in New York City. Organized in partnership with the Johns Hopkins Center for Health Security and the World Economic Forum, the 3.5-hour tabletop exercise simulated a global outbreak of a novel zoonotic coronavirus, named CAPS (Coronavirus-Associated Pulmonary Syndrome), which was fictional but scientifically plausible. The scenario depicted a fast-spreading virus originating in South America, causing 65 million deaths over 18 months, crippling economies, and sparking social unrest due to [b]misinformation [/b]and strained healthcare systems.
.

No correlation whatsoever .

The first COVID outbreak was reported in Dec 2019. BioNTech partnered with Pfizer to develop the first covid19 vaccine.
At the time Bill Gates foundation sold the shares in Oct 2021 their prices had risen from $19 to over $300.

I got all that from the chatgpt.
Bill Gates must be the businessman to emulate.

Which ones have come back into the US?

You don't bring it back in hours, it takes time, these are examples of companies that have annouced their intentions to bring back

https://www.cbsnews.com/news/us-manufacturing-domestic-tariffs/

Abbott Laboratories
Illinois-based medical device company Abbott Laboratories said in a statement Wednesday that a $500 million investment in manufacturing, research and development capabilities at plants in Illinois and Texas will "go live" by the end of the year. To the expansion, Abbott plans to hire up to 300 workers across both states.

Apple
Apple in February said that it's committed to spending more than $500 billion on expanding its U.S. manufacturing capabilities over four years.

TSMC
Taiwanese semiconductor maker TSMC in March announced a $165 billion total investment in U.S. manufacturing capabilities. The investment augments an existing $65 billion investment in semiconductor manufacturing operations in Phoenix by $100 billion.

Roche
Swiss pharmaceutical company Roche in April said it's committing $50 billion to growing its U.S. operations.

The funds will go toward building new research and development sites, and expanding existing manufacturing facilities in Indiana, Pennsylvania, Massachusetts and California, the company said on April 21.

Nvidia
Last week, American chip maker Nvidia announced that for this first time in the company's history, it will be manufacturing chips and AI supercomputers in the U.S.

Merck
Drugmaker Merck is investing $1 billion to build a U.S. plant in Delaware. The move comes amid plans by President Trump to impose tariffs on pharmaceuticals, which would include taxes on imported ingredients used drug manufacturing.

IBM
IBM on April 28 pledged to invest $150 billion in U.S. manufacturing over five years. At least $30 million will go toward research and development to further U.S.-based computer manufacturing, the computing giant said

Honda Motor
Honda Motor this week said it is moving production of its Civic Hybrid Hatchback from Japan to the U.S., in the face of a barrage of tariffs by the Trump istration, including a 25% tariff on vehicles and auto parts imported into the U.S.


Hyundai Motor Company
Hyundai in March announced a $21 billion commitment to investing in domestic manufacturing from 2025 to 2028.
As part of that commitment, the company has pledged to put $9 billion toward expanding domestic automobile production to 1.2 million vehicles a year, it said.

Johnson & Johnson
Johnson & Johnson is planning to invest more than $55 billion in new U.S. manufacturing facilities over four years. The investment represents a 25% increase compared with the previous four years, the health care company said in March.

Companies know where their bread is buttered, The US is the biggest single market for luxury items which is why your PM is here to beg, How can the poor UK dragging GDP with the poorest US state Missisipi afford those items

If by your data an approximate one third of all sales goes to just 1 country, Only a foolish company will ignore data, ignore one-third of his customer base not bend to the demand of that country, Apple is not foolish that is why they pledged $500bn in investment over the next 4yrs in the US On the flip side, how many percent of iphone sales is in the UK? Probably less than 5%. That is why the UK does not have the same leverage

Apple will spend more than $500 billion in the U.S. over the next four years
Teams and facilities to expand in Michigan, Texas, California, Arizona, Nevada, Iowa, Oregon, North Carolina, and Washington

Plans include a new factory in Texas, doubling the U.S. Advanced Manufacturing Fund, a manufacturing academy, and accelerated investments in AI and silicon engineering
