The left’s student loan bailout just got smacked down again
SCOTUS ruled 6-3 to block Biden’s $500B forgiveness plan, saying it’s unconstitutional. Meanwhile, 40% of borrowers still can’t pay their bills, and inflation’s eating us alive. Red states like Missouri led the charge to stop this handout, why should plumbers pay for your gender studies degree?

Bill Burr paints people who criticize 'Snow White' as racists
This is from his podcast on March 27, 2025.
He addresses the backlash to the movie by painting the people who criticize it as racists.
He also erroneously refers to 'Snow White' as 'Cinderella'

Reddit now barely usable. FFS
My ENTIRE homepage is LITTERED with these dumb fucking posts about protests. Not even anything interesting; just karma farmings morons posting "Protest in Pissville, Fuckass today" with a lame picture or video showing a bunch of miserable boomers and other "creatures" standing around holding signs their organizers told them to hold. Each of these useless SPAM posts with thousands of upvotes. I keep muting these subs and choosing "show me less of this commie gobbledegook horseshit", but it doesn't matter--they just keep popping up in my feed. Reddit truly is just an advertisement for far left retardation.

It's amazing libs don't understand this whole tariff war is about China
Youtuber Lei's Real Talk explains all of this in her video:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h5o20ZMNfNA
-------
But I'll summarize her video here.
The US has a trade goods deficit while China has a trade goods surplus. US imports more, China exports more.
China's surplus with the US was around ~$300 billion while their total trade surplus was around ~$1 trillion. So 1/3 of China's trade surplus comes from the US.
But these figures are based on "official" data. It doesn't include goods that China rerouted backdoor to Southeast Asia, South America, Canada, Mexico, and other regions.
So China's REAL surplus with US is much bigger. It is believed that US actually contributes to nearly 45-50% of China's total trade surplus if you account for all the backdoor loopholes China uses.
Thus China's dependence on the US is actually much deeper. The American market is irreplaceable for China.
Take Vietnam for example - they are the biggest backdoor route for China - Vietnam basically just exports the goods they import from China to the US. That's why when Trump slapped such high tariffs on Vietnam, they immediately agreed to negotiate.
European Union as a whole and Asian region as a whole also have a surplus with the US while they have a deficit with China.
So for both Europe and Asia, their deficit with China is offset by their surplus with the US.
In short, the US has been covering everyone's ass, acting as everyone's economic safety net, and ultimately benefitting the China at the expense of US.
The EU are leeches because not only has the US been helping them economically, but also militarily. NATO is basically the US.
Canada and Mexico are the same. They also serve as China's backdoors, and have a surplus with the US and a deficit with China. This is why Trump dislikes Canada because they are very two-faced. They benefit from the US and pretend to be great allies while letting China backdoor them to enter the US.
The tariffs not only prevent direct export dumping by China but they target every country potentially serving as China’s backdoor. That's why he put tariffs everywhere. To close all loopholes.
The US wants everyone to know - We will no longer cover your trade deficits with the CCP. Everyone must collectively work together to confront the CCP and block its dumping practices.
And this is what we are seeing happening right now. Everyone except China is now coming over to the US to negotiate and work together with the US.
Tariffs are a negotiation tool to bring everyone to the table for this reason. And nobody would do this unless we threaten them with tariffs because they would love to just continue taking advantage of the US if we allowed them to.
"Do not retaliate, and you will be rewarded"
The funny thing is libs thought the tariffs would push everyone to work with China.
It's the stupidest thing I've ever heard.
Everyone needs the US more than they need China. Why? Because the US is the biggest reliable consumer market in the world. Everyone depends on the US by selling stuff to the US. The US is the true heart and lifeline of the world's economy.
You can buy stuff from a lot of places. But there's only a few places where you can sell to.
This is why US has all the leverage.
Exports is the engine keeping the Chinese economy alive. China has a very imbalanced economic model. They cannot win this tariff war. It is a disaster for their export sector.
It's also bizarre how libs on reddit were unironically simping and cheering for China. I can never understand that. I'm guessing a lot of them are not from America or they're Chinese bots.
By the way, trade deficit isn't necessarily a bad thing. A deficit can attract foreign investment and boost the economy. But a persistent large deficit often leads to borrowing abroad which results in increasing national debt and dependence on foreign capital. Long-term, this eventually reduces US's economic sovereignty. But Trump isn't trying to achieve a trade surplus either (it's not possible). Because as we see with China, a constant trade surplus is a very imbalanced and risky model too. Trump wants to restructure the global trading system to rebalance deficit/surplus and put American industry on fairer ground with the rest of the world. Because again, the US has been covering everyone's ass. And ultimately the tariffs are still a negotiating tactic to achieve the real goals - reindustrialize America and stop China's mercantilist practices.

Joe Rogan’s right: the left has turned San Francisco into a Zombie Apocalypse
13,000 homeless shooting up in public, overdose deaths up 78% since 2019, all while Newsom brags about “sanctuary” vibes. Texas locks up dealers instead of coddling them, and drug deaths there are half California’s rate.

Canada's two-faced behavior
Canada’s global influence, security, and economic standing are essentially byproducts of U.S. power. Canada relies on the U.S. to secure global trade and manage military threats without contributing fairly in terms of military capacity, defense spending, or global leadership. Canada is riding on the back of American strength while avoiding the costs and risks.
Canada enjoys a free ride on U.S. military protection through NATO, NORAD, and broader continental security, while failing to meet its defense spending commitments. This allows Canada to redirect funds to domestic programs and social services at the expense of American taxpayers and military resources.
Canada’s lax immigration policies, drug enforcement failures, and permissive visa rules create security vulnerabilities that spill over into the U.S. While Canada benefits from America’s extensive border security infrastructure and enforcement efforts, it does not contribute equally to securing the border or managing the consequences of cross-border crime and illegal immigration.
Canada’s protectionist policies, unfair subsidies, inadequate intellectual property enforcement, and recent retaliatory measures contribute to an already imbalanced trade relationship that disadvantages the United States.
Canada is a very ungrateful country that leeches off and takes advantage of the US.
Furthermore, Canada goes behind America's back and has been serving as a backdoor route for China so that China can bypass tariffs to enter the US.

Tariffs paused for 90 days on everyone besides China.
I just want to call it right away. The entirety of Reddit is going to say “he folded” and claim that he had no plan to begin with, and has no clue what’s going on.
The mental gymnastics on this app are truly insane, I just read and laugh.
