The one line description, of course, leaves tons of holes the actual rule does patch. The impulse to believe a rule or law has been implemented in the most smooth brained way possible is rarely correct. The actual rule includes language tha

The memorial coin certainly seems like it would qualify if he benefited from it at all. My guess is he did and I'm a bit disappointed they don't seem to have looked much into that aspect nor mentioned asking him about it.

Because 1) science comes up with inconvenient answers (like climate change is real and human caused) and 2) there's a virulent anti-intellectual ideology that's taken over the GOP so harming universities is it's own goal in a

If they were ok with doing the work to bring in the overseas person in the first place why should they hire their onshore cutout? To do it legally would be a whole mess of getting involved in business in a new country.

Kind of. You have to ignore US Labor Day being established in 1894 which is essentially the same thing just Americanized by not sharing the day with the rest of the world.

Even if the future of the tariffs themselves were at all predictable many outlets are allergic to any connecting of dots. I saw an article from The Hill just yesterday that took the line that the RTO mandate for federal workers was an actua

If you're importing it it doesn't matter it's condition other than it's worth less so the tariff would be less. What they mean is if you buy goods that are already here there's no tariff, but they will also go up in
