Trump threatens to withdraw US from free trade agreement with Canada and Mexico. But Tax foundation warns that failure to renew USMCA would increase tax burden, shrink GDP and cost average US household $300 in 2027. Eliminating 95,000 full time jobs.

Trump slashes the size of two Utah national monuments
WASHINGTON, July 13 (Reuters) - U.S. President Donald Trump signed orders on Monday that slashed the size of two national ?monuments in southern Utah by more than 90% to allow for grazing, ?motorized recreation, logging and other resource development in the region, the White House said.
The proclamations reduced the Bears ?Ears National Monument to 121,100 acres (49,000 hectares) from 1.36 million acres, and cut the Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument to 181,500 acres from 1.87 million acres.
Environmental group Earthjustice said it would take legal action "to maintain protections for these treasured landscapes."
Bears ?Ears was established by former President Barack Obama in 2016. The monument, named for twin buttes that resemble a bear's head on the horizon, is home to cultural and archaeological sites that are sacred to several Native American tribes.
Grand Staircase-Escalante was established in 1996 by former President Bill Clinton. Numerous dinosaur fossils have been found in the ?monument, known for its colorful rock formations, over ?the last two decades.
Trump has previously dismissed the ?importance of environmental and cultural conservation ?projects.

MSNBC reports that Trump administration plans to waste $1.7 billion by extending unnecessary national guard at Washington DC until 2029. Center for American progress found that deployment of national guard has no impact on violent crime rates in cities.

That Utah change is bad news but those conservatives in the state have nobody to blame but themselves. That press conf with those Utah white dood leaders hopping up and down at their glee is disgusting. Trump's complete lack of comprehension is on full display with his comments about the land being closed to pretty much everything and those bald white guys hemming and hawing about it when they know that is a lie. If Trump had a brain and actually read the previous framework for those areas, his conclusions are a farce and a lie, the lands were open for use for hunting fishing camping etc etc its right there in the fine print.
The only thing this changes is that OIL and GAS and MINERAL leases and operating/exploration is no longer stopped, that is the SINGLE change to this abhorrent crap Trump signed. Now the natural resources can be extracted and the lands will be commercialized and harmed so some corps can make money off of this and the government can charge fees and royalties for doing so.
Shame on Utah reps and of course the daily shame on idiot Trump for signing this and not knowing a SINGLE THING about what he just signed over, he is unfit for leadership he is so out of it mentally.

Trump has record turnover of staff in second term according to Partnership for public service. More people leave his administration than the last 4 presidents combined. He nominates fewer people to senate for confirmation than any president in the last 50 years. He prefers inexperienced people because they are easier to manipulate. Survey of historians rank Trump as the worst president in executive appointments.

Disturbing that Trump administration plans to sell nuclear technology to Saudi Arabia. Risk that enriching uranium or plutonium could be a path to developing nuclear weapons in the future. Expensive nuclear facilities make no economic sense for peaceful use because Saudi Arabia has plenty of cheap oil and ideal locations for producing cheap solar or wind electricity.

Problem is battleships are obsolete in modern warfare for 3 reasons. Missiles can reach targets further than artillery. Small destroyers and submarines can deliver greater firepower at lower cost. Big ships are vulnerable targets. Ukraine war shows how drones, missiles and boats can stop Russian superior navy.

No way Congressional Republicans will approve such unbelievably expensive and unnecessary expenditure. After all, cost-cutting from government is their whole mantra, their ideology! They stand by their word to keep government spending DOWN! Thank goodness we have men/women of such righteous conviction to save our nation from ballooning the national debt even worse than THEY already have [which they are blaming on Democrats]

Wall street journal reports that Trump wants to waste billions of dollars undoing years of work on aircraft carriers. Ripping out new electromagnetic launchers for airplanes. Replacing them with old steam catapults that are slower to operate with more costly and labor intensive maintenance.

It is not ripping EMALS out of the three completed Ford-class carriers. The change applies to future carriers, starting with CVN-81.
It is an attempt to move toward proven reliability technology because the Pentagon's testing organization has repeatedly found EMALS reliability below its requirements.
Steam is heavier and more labor-intensive to maintain. But until the EMALS technology is more reliable there is nothing wrong with having some older but more reliable steam launchers.

Yahoo news report that US automakers fear that Trump's revised North American trade deal could cost them billions and competitiveness against foreign companies. Free trade deal has advantages for US companies combining cheap electricity and aluminum from Canada with cheap labor from Mexico.

The dipshit who did such an incredible job with the Reflecting Pool, Ballroom, Kennedy Center, National Mall, and Great American Fair is going to redesign our warships?
The Secretary of the Navy is a fucking puppet & all the officers that had the balls to speak up are gone.
What could go wrong?

Well, nothing that would stick to trump and his accomplices.
If anything goes wrong they will most certainly figure out a way to blame it all on the Democrats and their ignorant/gullible base will be only too pleased to accept it as the "real truth"
