From Here:
“President Donald Trump is set to gamble the success of his second term, the economy and the personal finances of millions of Americans this week on his long-held belief that tariffs can re-create a golden age of US wealth and independence.”
My heavens, the sky is not falling and the Economy is not crashing and the sun is still coming up and going down.
@Mike164 Thank you. It’s CNN at its best!
THEY JUST CAN’T ACCEPT THE FACT THEY LOST!
If you check their Leftist publication writings, their speeches,
CNN/MSDNC/Huff Post/ Madcow/Morning Blow-Joe , RESIST!, PROTEST!
Federal Judges trying to BLOCK Foreign Policy, BLOCK ‘DOGE’
They’re INSANE! Trump is Hitler!, Musk must die!, Hit TED CRUZ ova da head!
BURN DOWN TESLA!, EV cars must burn! (wait one? I thought they lik-- oh nevamind)
Folk’s are FLEEING their party like rats off the Titanic!
They may NEVER become Republican’s Heaven forbid!
But they have no problem becoming Independents. Dem’s can’t see this?
They DON’T GET Tariff’s are a GOOD THING! (It’s only FAIR for us to do this!)
You tariff us (40%) we tariff right back! (DUH! that’s called reciprocal Tariff)
Even I know this!
‘He who will not be named’ never Tariffed anybody but we paid through the A— NOSE!
WE PAY A BOATLOAD FOR ‘NATO’ some countries we ‘PROTECT’ don’t pay ANYTHING?
WTF’s fair ‘bout that?. Pay up or Defend yourselves.
The Local Albuquerque Republican Party Office was ‘Friggin’ Fire Bombed’ over
the weekend… Blew the front doors off! Nobody thank God was hurt, the graffiti
on the wall said ’ ICE =KKK’ Local Demi-god KOAT-TV reported 'Republican party BLAMES ARSON! REALLY? Seriously?
Um… I guess we blew our own doors off to show them huh? WTF?
Since violence seems to be the only thing that they understand time may come they get it returned to them in spades.
'Mayhap’s, ‘Ask and ye shall receive?’ an ‘Eye for an eye?’
MOO! It will only be a matter of time if this goes unchecked and unanswered
when they TRULY CROSS THE LINE. A few Innocents get dead, An attempt (again)
on a Senior Public Official or an act of Domestic Terrorism creates an unintended BLACK SWAN EVENT? (Public Safety/ Environmental DISASTER)…
IS THIS WHAT THE DEM’S ACTUALLY WANT? Take AMERICA DOWN? If they can’t Over Rule it no one will? Seems this way to me from my lofty view in the cheap seats.
They are out of Control.

I really don’t think these people understand the repercussions of their actions. If unrest ever comes these scumbags will get what’s coming to them.
STUPID RARELY THINKS HUH?
‘I swear Captain It was the Bloody Shepard’s Pie bake off and Smither’s
decided to do a knot and have a Zonk out!’ (yes they talk like that! 
)
If unrest comes it’s actually going to be due to the state the country is in, not because CNN told someone that their 401k is going to tank. It will be because their 401k actually tanked, what will those who are upset have coming to them?
I pretty much agree with that, however we all know there are those that live by CNN, FOX, MSN, Brietbart, Blaze…
End of the day it comes down to if companies that we invest in are going to continue to be able to operate. The end, if stock prices drop, that happens and if you are smart you hold or buy more stock at the lower price, however if the company folds you are left with nothing. I don’t stress when Trump does something that causes the companies I invest in to lose their stock value, it’s an opportunity to buy more stock at a lower price. However if that company goes out of business because of it, that screws me. Thankfully I don’t mess around with investing in anything that doesn’t have a 20 year track record, sure I could be missing out on making a killing by investing in the next big startup that goes public. But as a person who has been working for startups for the last 20 years, I make the most money by having equity in that startup and making sure it goes to acquisition.
I could give two pieces of monkey crap about CNN or any other news crap outlet. I too was responding about the state of the country and in particular the firebombing. If you don’t think firebombing has any type of consequence or repercussions just turn away and keep your eye on your investments.
That is not unrest, that is criminal behavior by individuals. Unrest is when a massive group of people come together and start causing havoc for the Federal Government. BLM Protests were unrest, Rodney King Protests were unrest, Chicago Riots were unrest. If Pam “Take My Guns” Bondi wants to call individuals who commit crimes against Tesla as Unrest, cool story, it’s not unrest.
Unrest is coming IMHO, this is just the beginning. I’ve got my opinion you’ve got yours.
I don’t blame you, I think everyone should prepare for the worst of humanity and enjoy the best when it doesn’t happen. I am 100% a prepper who follows the Mormon method of preparation, their Eschatology is BS but their guidelines for being prepared is 100% spot on.
I’ve posted stuff out of the manual on here before. I think many were surprised at their take on firearms.
It’s just logical. You see how many dems have gone over the edge without a real reason and you know what will happen in a actual crisis.
Their preparedness guidelines are light on firearms in my opinion however there is a reason for it, they have gone to war with the Federal Government in the past so they don’t publish anything that will get their attention today. I don’t agree with the beliefs of the Branch Davidian’s however legally stockpiling firearms should not be a reason for the Federal Government to kick in your doors and kill all your children.
Not That Light on Firearms, each of these are cut and pasted right out of the:
LDS Preparedness
Manual
The prudent see danger and take refuge,
but the simple keep going and suffer for it. Proverbs 27:12
While this manual has been prepared for,
and is intended to be read primarily by the active members of
The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.

Why? Because
it’s not just having a weapon that’s important, or
even knowing how to use one; it’s knowing full
well why you need to use it and therefore not hesitating to use it when needed. A gun in your hand
is totally worthless against an assailant unless
you’re fully willing to use it to defend yourself.
You must understand that the new rules
brought on by a major disaster may require
you to defend your life personally.
Gun Control in the Cities
No matter how you felt or thought about gun control in
the past, it’s time to face disaster-induced reality. The
gun-control politicians (and the people who supported
them) have placed Americans in a situation where not
only can the police not protect us in a timely manner, but
we cannot lawfully defend ourselves. Criminals unlawfully have firearms; citizens lawfully don’t. Intentionally or otherwise, gun-control supporters have created a
situation where an unfortunate number of innocent men,
women and children are going to be in danger during a
crisis simply because they could not obtain the tools of
self-defense.
The best weapon for home defense is a shotgun
with a short barrel. There are three reasons why this
is true. First, there is nothing scarier than looking
at that big black hole at the end of the barrel of a
shotgun when it’s pointed at you
The other useful weapon for home or personal
defense is a handgun. Although an automatic
shoots faster and loads quicker than a revolver, it
is a more complex mechanism and may jam occasionally, whereas a revolver almost never jams.
Also for a novice, a revolver is less intimidating
to hold and shoot.
The best revolver to have is a .357 magnum with
a 4 inch barrel. It can fire both .38 and .357 shells
(use the .38 ammo for practice because it’s cheaper
than the .357). A .357 is powerful enough to kill
or seriously injure an assailant and it’s common
enough to be affordable. I’d stick to a well-known
brand such as a Smith & Wesson. Taurus makes a
good handgun that is less expensive than the very
top names. Again, ask at the gun shop.
so if you
have to shoot someone to defend yourself, keep
shooting until you empty the gun. Once you’ve
wounded someone, he’s going to try to kill you
if he possibly can, so you don’t want to inflict a
minor wound; you must stop him!
Never point a gun at someone unless you are
completely willing to shoot.
If your assailant senses hesitancy, he’ll move quickly
and take the gun away from you. Your life may depend upon this so it’s essential to accept it completely.
Go back and read the opening paragraphs above
After the disaster hits, if the rioting gets really bad,
we’re going to see local police begging law-abiding
citizens for help. Your firearm will be a welcome addition to the force of law and order, believe me. No
local cop is going to mind you having a handgun if
you’re manning a roadblock protecting a neighborhood
of families with children. Act responsibly, tell them
what you’re doing, and they’ll probably give you a big
thanks. But if you’re carrying a gun while you smash
a window of the Walmart and walk off with a stereo;
well that’s a different story. Be prepare to get shot.
See, cops don’t mind private ownership nearly as much
as we’ve all been led to believe. I know, I work with
law enforcement officers in a small town, and I ask
them about topics like this. When the crisis hits, they’ll
be more than happy to have your cooperation. We’re
all going to need as many law-abiding gun-toting
citizens as possible in order to fend off the criminals
and establish some degree of order.
