Just figured out where these fake tariff rates come from. They didn't actually calculate tariff rates + non-tariff barriers, as they say they did. Instead, for every country, they just took our trade deficit with that country and divided it by the country's exports to us.
So we have a $17.9 billion trade deficit with Indonesia. Its exports to us are $28 billion. $17.9/$28 = 64%, which Trump claims is the tariff rate Indonesia charges us. What extraordinary nonsense this is.

It's also important to understand that the tariff rates that foreign countries are supposedly charging us are just made-up numbers. South Korea, with which we have a trade agreement, is not charging a 50% tariff on U.S. exports. Nor is the EU charging a 39% tariff.

During the Renaissance, people in Venice would vote by dropping little balls into an urn.
The Italian word for “little ball” is ‘ballotta.’
Now any kind of secret voting, by ball, piece of paper, or voting machine, is called a ‘ballot.’

Here's our guide to states that allow same-day voter registration on Election Day — meaning you can still show up, register and cast your vote today.
For more info, visit vote.gov or your local elections website, or read our story here: cbsnews.com/news/same-day-…

I asked a friend who’s a former US Air Force officer what he thinks will happen to #Gaza
His answer: “it’s going to be completely wiped out, destroyed — Hamas brought hell upon their people with that attack”

Sounds like NASA got what it wanted from the asteroid Bennu. "If we're looking for biologically essential organic molecules, we picked the right asteroid, and we brought back the right sample. This is an astrobiologist's dream."

We live in times when evil is trying to open a chasm between all of us and our common desire for peace. This chasm is growing every day, deepened by terror. The only thing that can guarantee peace and serenity to all nations is rules and international law.
