More fake money creation--white house will fund welfare program with tariff money
GRA: I guess we just have to take their word for this stuff--not that I believe the government one iota anymore.
“(the hill) — the white house said tuesday it will use money from tariff revenue to fund a supplemental nutrition program facing a funding shortage amid the ongoing government shutdown.
“white house press secretary Karoline Leavitt posted on x that President Trump and the white house had identified the 'creative solution' to shift tariff funds to the special supplemental nutrition program for women, infants and children, commonly known as wic, which was set to run out of money in the coming days.
“'the Trump white house will not allow impoverished mothers and their babies to go hungry because of the democrats’ political games,' Leavitt said.
“it was not immediately clear how much money the Trump administration intended to infuse into the wic program, or whether the white house could reallocate the funds without congress. President Trump has regularly suggested funds brought in from tariffs on imports could be used for other purposes, mainly paying down the deficit.”
GRA: It's magic, is what it is. Have a shortfall? Abracadabra--fixed.

On second thought,if Trump and Liberace Bessent decide they have 300 billion dollars in tariff money(true or not),we could get checks. I forgot,reality has nothing to do with money and government.

Oh, the DOGE Dividend! Oh, the tariff rebate! Oh, how wonderful!
Because the covid stimulus checks were such a success... NOT!
Not just the money printing, not just the fact that we're broke-r than broke, but also the paperwork train wreck. IRS ("oh poor us! we're so understaffed") bending over backwards to give away money for three whole years. Here, claim your stimulus on your income tax return if you didn't get it automatically. Duh, people couldn't remember. Or they screwed up and claimed it again and then the IRS didn't pay it out and they were confused because "my refund was lower than it was supposed to be". Illegals who got a social security number or maybe two or more social security numbers, you bet they had to have cashed in big time. How many social security numbers do you think the traffickers obtained for José, age 3 and María, age 5, who are now on the tax returns of how many trafficked adults? (And to whom Josh Hawley wants to give a $5,000 child tax credit instead of just $2,000)?
More pigs at the trough - now some whiny emotional fake Republicans are stressing out about making people pay back excess obamacare subsidy. Like if the policy costs $600 a month but you told the Marketplace you were making $x and they figured you got a $500 a month subsidy and paid only $100 a month.... but then next April you find out that you were only entitled to $200 a month subsidy and so you owe $3,600 to the IRS (12 months x $300). Another covid-era boondoggle, big reductions or total forgiveness of the payback of the excess subsidy that you weren't entitled to after all. Well one good thing about the onebigbeautifulsh*tsandwich bill was that it put an end to the caps on the paybacks. But of course they didn't read the bill (as Marjorie Obama Greene admitted to not reading the bill before voting Yes.) Now there's weeping and gnashing of teeth about "unaffordable" health insurance from some Republicans.
Hakeem Jeffries has to be happy. Some players on the other team are singing his tune. Ignore the rosy headlines about Schumer looking bad because of the shutdown. Our side is accepting the premise of the other side's argument. Just like they always do. The $2 Trillion deficit could turn into a $3 Trillion deficit really soon.
Oh, look! SLVR, silver miners ETF, it's up 6.12% today! Gold is up 1.40% today. PALL, palladium, up more than 9% today. I can't imagine why.
Strange thing,A.T.,the dollar index is going up too. Figure that one out. Actually,EVERYTHING'S tearing skyward but crude oil.

PRESIDENT TRUMP ANNOUNCES "FIRST PHASE" OF ONE THOUSANDTH PEACE DEAL BETWEEN ISRAEL AND HAMAS
(zH)Update (1920ET): Following SecState Rubio's earlier interruption, it appears his note to President Trump was spot on.
President Trump Just posted on social media that Israel and the terror group Hamas have agreed to the first phase of a peace deal that would put an end to the gruelling and bloody Gaza conflict after two years.
Trump announced the breakthrough in a post on Truth Social on Wednesday (Thursday AEDT), having earlier in the day suggested a deal was “very close” and that he would visit the Middle East later this week.
“I am very proud to announce that Israel and Hamas have both signed off on the first Phase of our Peace Plan,” Trump wrote on Truth Social.
“This means that ALL of the Hostages will be released very soon, and Israel will withdraw their Troops to an agreed upon line as the first steps toward a Strong, Durable, and Everlasting Peace.
“All Parties will be treated fairly! This is a GREAT Day for the Arab and Muslim World, Israel, all surrounding Nations, and the United States of America, and we thank the mediators from Qatar, Egypt, and Turkey, who worked with us to make this Historic and Unprecedented Event happen.
GRA:Do they still live near each other? Well then,I have my doubts this will work. Maybe deal #1001--where muslims are transferred to Africa(a good place for a lot of troublemakers)--will be permanent.
