The CBO Just Dropped a $4 Trillion Truth Bomb on the Dems’ Anti-Trump Tariffs Rhetoric Matt Margolis
As of August 19, we estimate that the effective tariff rate for goods imported into the United States has increased by about 18 percentage points when measured against 2024 trade flows. We project that increases in tariffs implemented during the period from January 6, 2025, to August 19 will decrease primary deficits (which exclude net outlays for interest) by $3.3 trillion if the higher tariffs persist for the 2025‒2035 period. By reducing the need for federal borrowing, those tariff collections will also reduce federal outlays for interest by an additional $0.7 trillion. As a result, the changes in tariffs will reduce total deficits by $4.0 trillion altogether.
That’s no rounding error.
The numbers are simply eye-popping, and they tell the story that the media doesn’t want you to know...

Climate Narrative Ch-Ch-Ch-Ch-Changes Duane Patterson
- It wasn't cooling, and it wasn't really warming up all that much, so the term 'climate change' evolved as the preferred term of art...
The melting of sea ice in the Arctic has slowed dramatically in the past 20 years, scientists have reported, with no statistically significant decline in its extent since 2005.
The finding is surprising, the researchers say, given that carbon emissions from fossil fuel burning have continued to rise and trap ever more heat over that time.
They said natural variations in ocean currents that limit ice melting had probably balanced out the continuing rise in global temperatures. However, they said this was only a temporary reprieve and melting was highly likely to start again at about double the long-term rate at some point in the next five to 10 years...

- They had sold their family home, the sanctuary where their daughter Caitlin had grown from a little girl with a basketball to a national phenom, and they had never told her the real reason.

- - We are the party of the working man.
- - We support free speech.
- - We respect traditions and norms.
- - We want to save democracy.
- - We are for diversity.
- - We follow the rules.
- Let me tell you why Democrats are none of these.
- But scratch the surface, and their actions tell a different story - one of hypocrisy, power grabs, and betrayal of the principles they profess.
