Totally unconstitutional Article 1, Section 9, Clause 5 of the U.S. Constitution prohibits Congress from laying taxes and duties on articles exported from any state.1 Known as the Export Clause,2 it applies to taxes and duties, not user fees.3 The Supreme Court has interpreted the Export Clause to address shipments only to foreign countries, not shipments to unincorporated territories, such as Puerto Rico and the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands.4 The Court has also construed the Export Clause as requiring not simply an omission of a tax upon the articles exported, but also a freedom from any tax which directly burdens the process of exporting.5 -
Drug are going to get more expensive, too! So much for no more endless wars, this is a war that will never end if it actually begins https://www.nytimes.com/2025/08/08/us/trump-military-drug-cartels.html President Trump has secretly signed a directive to the Pentagon to begin using military force against certain Latin American drug cartels that his administration has deemed terrorist organizations, according to people familiar with the matter. The decision to bring the American military into the fight is the most aggressive step so far in the administration’s escalating campaign against the cartels. It signals Mr. Trump’s continued willingness to use military forces to carry out what has primarily been considered a law enforcement responsibility to curb the flow of fentanyl and other illegal drugs. The order provides an official basis for the possibility of direct military operations at sea and on foreign soil against cartels. U.S. military officials have started drawing up options for how the military could go after the groups, the people familiar with the conversations said, speaking on the condition of anonymity to discuss the sensitive internal deliberations.

You mean if Trump acts like King George and taxes without consent what can be done about it? Not sure. Guess it will be for the people to decide next November. MAGA will have to vote totally against their own economic and Constitutional interests to keep the legislature on their side to keep hurting them. Will be interesting. Trump will argue that taxing the sh it out of everyone will be only way to stave off a great depression. That's what he is already doing. Will Trump arrest people for not paying the illegal taxes? -

Don't forget, this massive tax increase is totally illegal. Trump does not have the authority to impose taxation without the consent of the legislature. The courts will strike this theft down for the criminality it is -

It would just show how we had inflation dropping until Trump was elected, so no real point. We all know this already -

So extra taxes on almost everything are just no big deal -
https://www.cnbc.com/2025/08/08/climate-insurers-are-worried-the-world-could-soon-become-uninsurable-.html Some fear the world is fast approaching temperature levels where professional risk managers will no longer be able to offer cover for financial services. Günther Thallinger, a board member at Allianz, one of the world’s biggest insurers, says the climate crisis could make adaptation economically unviable. Zurich Insurance Group, meanwhile, said alongside a recent research paper assessing climate resilience that the outlook looks “alarmingly bleak.” Top insurers fear the climate crisis could soon outpace industry solutions, effectively threatening to make entire regions around the world uninsurable. Günther Thallinger, a board member at Allianz, one of the world’s biggest insurers, recently outlined how the world is fast approaching temperature levels where insurers will no longer be able to offer cover for financial services, such as mortgages and investments. In a LinkedIn post published in late March, Thallinger made the case for rapid decarbonization, pointing out that entire asset classes were “degrading in real time” as extreme weather events take their toll. Perhaps most strikingly of all, he warned the worsening climate crisis appears to be on track to destroy capitalism.

https://www.reuters.com/world/us/us-manufacturing-extends-slump-factory-employment-lowest-5-years-2025-08-01/ WASHINGTON, Aug 1 (Reuters) - U.S. manufacturing contracted for a fifth straight month in July and factory employment dropped to the lowest level in five years amid tariffs that have raised prices of imported raw materials. The Institute for Supply Management (ISM) said on Friday that its manufacturing PMI dropped to 48.0 last month from 49.0 in June. A PMI reading below 50 indicates contraction in manufacturing, which accounts for 10.2% of the economy.
