The president is literally involved in one of the most blatant coverups for a disgusting illegal scandal in American history.

I swear you fricking retards will continue to move the goal post for this man.
It’s April 11th lol.
Here’s a picture to describe the situation. Even though most you MAGA dumbfricks can’t read.

Just following up here on both of your points. Any updates?

re: Have Tarrifs worked?

Posted by ChiGator on 4/10/26 at 11:13 am to
No most companies don’t have the ability to do that. A competent administration would have provided companies incentives over time to make moves abroad before being hit with tarrifs.

And you know what makes it even more challenging? When policy changes weekly based on how the old man on Truth Social is feeling.
Laugh as much as you want but nothing macro has been solved. The straight is still closed, commodities across the Middle East are all still a mess. This will impact prices of things all across the board for months if not years.

re: How to invest in SpaceX IPO

Schmid Group. $SHMD. Rumored to be a customer of SpaceX
$5 gas is not the only problem. So many other commodities come out of the Middle East.

How about global helium shortages. Good luck getting an MRI, chips will be impacted.

Fertilizer shortages. Food prices will skyrocket

Natural gas shortages

Dude it’s not that simple. Globally coordinated escorts are reportedly at max able to account for about 30% of ships passing through. We’re talking hundred million $$ ships with insurance cost up 200-300%. They are not going to risk their vessel getting damaged. Period.

The US military can bomb as much shite as it wants, as long as Iran has the leverage with this straight, they will use it. I’m sure the US administration is starting to get nervous due to magnitude across the globe. Midterms are right around the corner and it will not be pretty for one side if prices continue to rise.
The guy is a complete moron and even worse he puts yes man idiots everywhere around him. Hopefully even a small fraction of the ppl who’ve been conned by him all these years have started coming to their senses.
Illinois is really not that much closer to Chi vs Purdue, Iowa, and WI. 2.5-4 hour drives.

What makes less sense is that DePaul has been so trash for 40+ years. They literally are in the city. You’d think they’d stumble into some talent that can get them dancing every now & then
The problem with this thinking is this conflict in Iran absolutely has the ability to drag on and completely upend commodities across the globe. (They’re already a mess) Which in turn keeps inflation elevated and interest rates up.

I see two ways this conflict realistically ends. Otherwise I don’t see why Iran has any incentive to stop what they’re doing.


US takes an off ramp and ends the conflict. They declare all military goals = accomplished. Iran eases off.


China and India put pressure on Iran to stop.

Could either option happen next week…sure. But it also can drag out for months.
France's Finance Minister Roland Lescure revealed on Wednesday that between 30 and 40 per cent of Gulf refining capacity has been damaged or destroyed by Iran's retaliatory strikes, leaving a shortage of 11 million barrels a day on global oil markets. Lescure warned it could take up to three years to restore damaged facilities, and several months to restart those that were urgently shut down.

He doesn’t get brought up much, but I don’t think it’s hyperbolic to suggest Theo Epstein should be on the baseball Mount Rushmore.

- Broke the Red Sox curse
- Broke the Cubs curse
- led the pitch clock change
Dems don’t need to cheer or hope for anything. It’s inevitable that commodities across the world will continue to spike causing elevated inflation.
Vandy - Nebraska too ??. I can’t keep up
