Raw Story: ‘Very bad thing to say’: Conservative pollster hits Trump after eyebrow-raising comment

King Donald is a condescending out-of-touch piece of sh*t:

Conservative pollster Frank Luntz, who appeared on CNN to talk about voter confidence in the GOP amid the current economy, appeared shocked at President Donald Trump’s admonition that Americans not act “stupid” over his sweeping tariffs.

On Monday, as many people panicked over the tanking stock markets, Trump posted to Truth Social, “The United States has a chance to do something that should have been done DECADES AGO. Don’t be Weak! Don’t be Stupid! Don’t be a PANICAN (A new party based on Weak and Stupid people!). Be Strong, Courageous, and Patient, and GREATNESS will be the result!”

The Recount: Press sec. [Bimbo #1 Karoline Leavitt] addresses Trump attending golf event over dignified transfer of remains of soldiers who died in Lithuania.

“Secretary Hegseth was there to represent the administration,” the press secretary told the reporter Tuesday. “The president has expressed his condolences to these families, as have I, from this podium.”

Trump instead was in Florida, where he attended a tournament for the Saudi-backed LIV Golf tour at his Doral resort, before he traveled to his Palm Beach club for fundraising events.

Critics also questioned Trump’s decision to engage in a glitzy weekend that benefited his family’s wallet as the country panicked over tumbling stock markets caused by the president’s tariffs.

Nero fiddles while Rome burns.

GB News: [F’]Elon Musk’s brother launches extraordinary public attack on Donald Trump

It’s a dog-eat-dog world:

Elon Musk’s younger brother has launched an extraordinary public attack on Donald Trump after the President issued retaliatory tariffs on the world last week.

Kimbal Musk, 52 – a businessman and restaurateur – owns The Kitchen Restaurant Group and is a sitting board member of Tesla.

Now, Kimbal has hit out at Trump’s tariffs, deeming the retaliatory action a “structural, permanent tax on the American consumer”.

Taking his criticism one step further, he branded the Republican the “most high tax American President in generations”.

“Through his tariff strategy, Trump has implemented a structural, permanent tax on the American consumer.

“Even if he is successful in bringing jobs on shore through the tariff tax, prices will remain high and the tax on consumption will remain the form of higher prices because we are simply not as good at making all things,” he added.

White House floats deporting U.S. citizens. Justice Sotomayor just warned about that.

According to White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt [Bimbo #1], you, too, could get a one-way ticket to a prison in El Salvador:

Responding to a question at Tuesday’s daily briefing, White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt mentioned President Donald Trump’s “idea” to potentially deport “violent” and “heinous” U.S. citizens, adding a seemingly important caveat: “If it’s legal.”

Reason: Supreme Court Rejects Trump’s Claim That He Can Summarily Deport Anyone He Describes As an ‘Alien Enemy’

!!!!!!!!!!

The Supreme Court on Monday unanimously agreed that alleged members of the Venezuelan gang Tren de Aragua have a due process right to challenge President Donald Trump’s use of the Alien Enemies Act (AEA) to summarily deport them.

As the Court’s unsigned order in Trump v. J.G.G. notes, “‘it is well established that the Fifth Amendment entitles aliens to due process of law’ in the context of removal proceedings,” meaning “the detainees are entitled to notice and opportunity to be heard ‘appropriate to the nature of the case.'” Specifically, the majority says, “AEA detainees must receive notice after the date of this order that they are subject to removal under the Act. The notice must be afforded within a reasonable time and in such a manner as will allow them to actually seek habeas relief in the proper venue before such removal occurs.”

That order decisively rejects the Trump administration’s attempt to deport suspected gang members without judicial review.

Irish Star: Karoline Leavitt [Bimbo #1] gives baffling response when asked about massive tariff on Madagascar

White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt addressed concerns about the impact of Trump’s sweeping tariffs on low-income countries with high poverty rates, such as Madagascar.

“The reciprocal tariff rates were implemented by countries were focused on the monetary tariff those countries imposed on the United States, and the non-monetary barriers, making it harder for America to export to these countries,” Leavitt explained.

But in reality:

Madagascar, which has a trade surplus with the United States, is now facing a hefty 47% tariff on all its exports to the US, including vanilla. Despite Madagascar’s minimal dependence on U.S. exports, the steep tariff essentially aims to curb American consumption of over a thousand tons of vanilla annually.

According to Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick, who expressed his views on CNBC, Madagascar was accused of “picking on us.”
