Trump Suddenly pauses his tariffs, White House spin in full effect, quizzing MAGA fans in Florida

(Jimmy Kimmel Live) April 9, 2025: After watching Trump gamble our life savings this week he paused almost all of those big beautiful tariffs he levied, Uncle Scam offered words of reassurance to the millions of Americans whose retirement funds he exploded, Team Trump is out of in full force praising his decision, the real reason for his backing off of the Tariffs is likely because his approval rating is lower than ever, he spoke at the National Republican Committee Dinner last night, lots of Trump brand items are made in China, he apparently has no vested interest in Russia, the Department of Justice is eliminating the National Cryptocurrency Enforcement Team, and we sent a team to the Gulf of America in Florida to ask some of Trump’s bigliest fans what they think about the Department of Education.

My PR firm said US would love me. It's shocking

Imagine a map of at least 1,000 Anti-Trump and Musk events being planned across all 50 states for Saturday, April 5, 2025.

It's real and interactive (created by Kavya Beheraj for Axios) and shows a significant concentration in the Northeast, West Coast, and Rust Belt as part of the new Hands Off! Movement (handsoff2025.com). Events planned outside the U.S. are not shown.

.

The nationwide Anti-President Trump Movement "Hands Off!" is expected to be the largest single-day protest this Saturday since the Orange Menace entered office. Why it matters:

• 

  I'm here to Make Israel Great Again (MIGA).

  The Trump administration's wide-reaching and ground-shaking policies have mobilized a varied cross section of Americans affected by political, economic, social and legal changes.
• "This is not just corruption," the Hands Off! website says. "This is not just mismanagement. This is a hostile takeover."

• By the numbers: More than 1,100 rallies, visibility events, and meetings were scheduled in all 50 states as of Wednesday (April 3, 2025) afternoon.
• Organizers said they had gotten nearly 250,000 RSVPs as of March 29.

• 

  R'n'r for freedom? Support brave journalism

  The latest: White House Garden tours scheduled for Saturday were postponed to Sunday in anticipation of D.C. protests, First Lady Melania Trump said on Thursday.
• State of play: Protesters are rallying against several Trump administration policies, including its handling of Social Security benefits, layoffs across the federal workforce, attacks on consumer protections and anti-immigrant policies and attacks on transgender people.
• The protests are also against Elon Musk's involvement in the federal government via DOGE — after he's already faced a wave of [vandalism and] demonstrations at Tesla dealerships worldwide via the #TeslaTakedown movement.
• The Hands Off! demonstrations will occur at state capitals, federal buildings, congressional offices, and city centers.
• Dozens of advocacy organizations are partnering to support Saturday's action, including the Center for LGBTQ Economic Advancement & Research, Declaration for American Democracy, the Human Rights Campaign, Indivisible and Planned Parenthood.

Two out of two women agree, these sh*ts suck

What they're saying: "This is a nationwide mobilization to stop the most brazen power grab in modern history," the movement's website said. "Trump, Musk, and their billionaire cronies are orchestrating an all-out assault on our government, our economy, and our basic rights — enabled by Congress every step of the way."

ICE (Gestapo) rounding up human beings

Early Quakers welcomed Native Americans

Quaker Friends, we all deserve to feel safe from harm, no matter where we are. But this week, the Trump administration ramped up immigration raids nationwide, putting families and community members at risk of separation. Download posters to show solidarity with immigrants today.

One simple way we can show solidarity with immigrants is to promote messages of love, dignity, and welcome for all. To help do that, we have new posters ready to use. Take them to protests, vigils, and other events and display them at home, school, workplace, congregation, and other spaces. Download the posters.

GAZA: Help Palestinians return home to Rafah

(Kerri Kennedy, everyaction.com) Just days after the ceasefire deal, many displaced Palestinians began returning to their homes. Last week, our team in Gaza entered the city of Rafah, determined to help people make the difficult trek.

To assist, AFSC (American Friends Service Committee) provided support to a private company in removing rubble. Now, some streets that were blocked have been reopened. Watch the video.

TAKE ACTION by telling Congress: Protect our planet, not corporate profits! Pres. Trump has issued executive orders that reverse progress to address climate change. Now Congress is considering more policies that will enrich fossil fuel companies at the expense of our air, land, and water. Instead of sacrificing our environment for the benefit of corporations, the U.S. must invest in clean energy and move away from fossil fuels. Join AFSC in calling on Congress to prioritize the health of our people and the planet.

White comedian dares to joke about white racism

AFSC STATEMENT: We must oppose Trump's efforts to silence and criminalize activists. Earlier this week, the Trump administration issued an executive order attempting to criminalize and silence people protesting Israel’s genocide in Gaza, the West Bank, and Palestine.

The order calls for the deportation of American students involved in protests and instructs the U.S. Justice Department to aggressively prosecute pro-Palestinian sympathizers and activists.

As a Quaker organization that has worked for decades to support peace and justice in Palestine and around the world, we strongly oppose this order. Read the statement.

FROM THE ARCHIVES: Exposing war profiteers. In this video, AFSC Archivist Don Davis talks about an insidious U.S. weapon used during the U.S. War on Vietnam.

“Bomblets” were filled with steel balls surrounding explosives that were then dropped over vast areas of the Buddhist country of Vietnam, causing extensive civilian deaths. In Vietnam, AFSC staff treated bomblet victims in Quang Ngai. In the U.S., the NARMIC program worked to expose the companies that produce these weapons of war. Watch the video.

Nvidia loses $589 billion in a day

Predicting the market's hard, beating it impossible

The Number One business in America used to be Apple Corporation, the iPhone, iPad, iTamp slave factory owner, but it was shoved out of the way by the computer chip company Nvidia. That is until yesterday, when China released DeepSeek, a very cheap A.I. search function. That release by the CCP crashed Nvidia, taking it down the farthest a company has ever fallen financially since the last time Nvidia fell (about $250 billion that time). That's what Wall Street calls volatility. To invest or not invest? Hotshots have the most exposure to upswing, but the down draft burns them up when they crash. At least Apple is stable, however irresponsible or amoral the corporation may be. What's GM up to? What about other war stocks? Big Pharma? There's another "flu" on the horizon, and if we call it a "Covid," that means big money for companies already making big money on new allopathic drugs like esketamine ("Spravato"). Caveat emptor.

"Peak oil" lie: gas market crashes (video)

Mike Maloney; Dylan Ratigan; Pfc. Sandoval, Seth Auberon, CC Liu (eds.), Wisdom Quarterly

(The Jimmy Dore Show) Dylan Ratigan explains the fall of oil and collapse of the US economy.

 
Oil Armageddon: What will it mean?

Mike Maloney has a best-selling book (free at pages.goldsilver.com/freebook). Today, the world changed. In this special report he explains what "Oil Armageddon" means for the world, country, family, and your future. Buckle up. And thank you for sharing this video far and wide. Free newsletter? Go to goldsilver.com.

What is peak oil?

"Peak oil" is the theorized point in time when the maximum rate of extraction of toxic petroleum is reached, after which it is expected to enter terminal decline.

As of 2020, peak oil forecasts range from the early 2020s to the 2040s, depending on economics and how governments respond to global warming alarmism. It is often confused with oil depletion.

However, whereas depletion refers to a period of falling reserves and supply, PEAK OIL refers to the point of maximum production.

The concept of peak oil is often credited to geologist M. King Hubbert, whose 1956 paper first presented a formal theory. Peak oil occurs when the cost of oil extraction exceeds the price consumers will pay.

• 
  What's it called when, after the lie of scarcity is revealed, oil production outpaces consumer demand, consumption, or even ability to store the stuff out of the ground? Let's leave it in the ground. Of course, it's not our choice, is it? Corporations rule the world.

Most early analyses concentrated on increasing costs of extraction and assumed that demand would drive costs higher. More recent analyses concentrate on drop in demand as alternatives to oil become more attractive. More

Tom Hanks opens a special SNL as host from his home, where he talks about recovering from COVID-19, does an "audience" Q&A, and pays tribute.

Pandemic schmandemic, SNL returns tonight (12:35 am) with some socially appropriate physical distancing skits like "Weekend Edition." In North America's worst hit city for co-morbidity deaths and a full Italian-style lockdown and house arrest order, it's time to laugh (and make fun of dumb Trump).

Event 201 Pandemic Exercise: Segment 1, Intro and Medical Countermeasures (MCM) Discussion

EVENT 201 IS A "FICTIONAL" EXERCISE AND DISEASE

The CIA didn't know what China was planning?

How convenient that they knew an imaginary pandemic was coming, which they refer to as a "novel coronavirus." They knew it would be like SARS and MERS and they nickname it "CAPS" for the exercise, but it's COVID-19 out of China affecting South America.

N1H1, SARS, MERS, Swine flu, Bird flu...

Event 201 is a pandemic tabletop exercise hosted by The Johns Hopkins Center for Health Security in partnership with the World Economic Forum and the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation on October 18, 2019, in New York, NY. The exercise illustrated the pandemic preparedness efforts needed to diminish the large-scale economic and societal consequences of a severe pandemic.

Chinese dictatorship tried to hide severity

Drawing from actual events, Event 201 identifies important policy issues and preparedness challenges that could be solved with sufficient political will and attention. These issues were designed in a narrative to engage and educate the participants and the audience.

Safe bonds and risky stocks fall with market

Associated Press (ap.org); Seth Auberon, Ashley Wells, Wisdom Quarterly

The day's Dow Jones industrial average volatility (Friday, Feb. 9, 2018) is worrisome.

.

Even "safe" bond investments falter...

Don't worry, P Galore. I have bitcoin. - Get off.

NEW YORK, NY - The stock market is not the only thing dropping. Bonds, which are supposed to be the "safe" part of every investor's portfolio, have faltered, too. In what has been a rude awakening for some naive investors, bond funds have lost ground these past couple of weeks, unlike in past downturns for stocks. What is different this time is that the same things undercutting stocks are hurting bond prices: worries about inflation and the possibility of much higher interest rates. More

Wall Street collapsing! Thanks, Trump

Editors, Wisdom Quarterly; NPR.org; Wall Street Journal; KPFK.org

Sell, sell, you SOB! Heads will roll!

Today saw the biggest plunge in Wall Street history as the stock market dropped 1,175 points (4%, 1,600 points at one time during the day as panic selling started and automated sell offers were triggered).

It has been as high as 2,600 which is meaningless, dizzying heights that do not reflect reality. Bitcoin is not helping as it deflates leaving suckers panicked. All 2018 gains are lost (npr.org).

How's that crypto bitcoin doing?

This sell-off started last week with no apparent explanation. Interest rates are going up. Pres. Trump is being an _-hole, as usual, and other market indicators are generally "healthy."

But clearly this is all about an overheated, over-inflated, fear-stricken market. It's volatile. The VIX (volatility index) has been placid, comatose, but today it surged up beyond its historical average.

I want my money back, Donald Duck Trump!

However, this is not the worst it's ever been in percentage terms. It was worse during the recent Depression we never really pulled out of and the dot com crisis and housing bubble burst that have hit it.

Then there was that Black Friday that sent the country into mire so that only a permanent war economy seemed like the solution. How's that working out for you, war profiteers?
