    Stream Notes – Ep. 44 – Political ASMR – analysis on tariffs, Kristi Noem is an OG

    Let’s kick this off with data – data on the tariffs. We’re not going from 0 to 25, there were already a number of tariffs already in place, especially when it comes to China. So when inflation ran wild, and the country desperately needed relief from the expansionary actions taken by Biden, why did they keep the China tariffs in place?

    For full context, here is the before and after on specific product / services from China with respect to tariffs:

    Robert Lighthizer, former U.S. Trade Representative under President Trump, has been a strong advocate for the use of tariffs as a tool to achieve several economic and strategic goals. Here are some key points summarizing his views on the benefits of tariffs:

    1. Leverage in Trade Negotiations:
      • Lighthizer believes that the U.S. has significant leverage over its trading partners due to their dependency on the U.S. market. He argues that tariffs can be used as a bargaining tool to secure better trade terms and ensure that trade partners adhere to agreements that benefit the U.S. economy
    2. Reducing Trade Deficits:
      • One of Lighthizer’s primary goals has been to reduce the U.S.’s systemic trade deficits with countries like China and Japan. He views tariffs as an effective means to address these imbalances by making imported goods more expensive and encouraging domestic production
    3. Protecting American Jobs:
      • Lighthizer argues that tariffs help protect American jobs by making it less attractive for companies to outsource production to countries with lower labor costs. By imposing tariffs, he believes that more jobs can be retained within the U.S., benefiting American workers
    4. National Security:
      • He also sees tariffs as a way to protect national security by reducing dependency on foreign goods, particularly in critical industries such as technology and defense. This approach aims to ensure that the U.S. maintains control over essential supply chains
    5. Countering Unfair Trade Practices:
      • Lighthizer has been vocal about using tariffs to counter what he perceives as unfair trade practices by other countries, such as intellectual property theft and state subsidies. He believes that tariffs can pressure these countries to change their practices and create a more level playing field for U.S. businesses

    Lighthizer’s approach to tariffs is rooted in the belief that they can be a powerful tool to achieve economic self-reliance, protect American jobs, and secure better trade deals for the United States.

    I just want to start at expressing my condolences to the families impacted by the recent aviation incident. I’m hopeful that more information will be forthcoming soon, not that this will make anything easier, but that we can understand what happened and work to avoid such tragedies in the future.

    Political ASMR – RKF Jr.’s difficult road to confirmation, WH Press Secretary & Highlights, Ep. 42 Notes

    I’m absolutely floored as to the performance of Robert Kennedy Junior during his confirmation hearing earlier in the morning. It was underwhelming as a performance as it could’ve been, but not to the level of Biden’s debate performance against Trump. So in that sense we still have an opportunity to recover, but it was clear to me that he was not as prepared as he should’ve been for some very obvious questions that were being asked. Too many opportunities yielded themselves to allow Democrats to not only score points with their base but perhaps even make a case to the entire country as to why they are pushing back on his nomination.

    Social media response has been unrelenting and extremely unapologetic on the HHS confirmations:

    Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt spoke with reporters just outside of the White House today and continues to hold excellent form. A true phenom in the world of politics, communications, and policy strategy. But a reminder of the continuous stream of hate she recieves

    Another major event was Trump’s signing of the Laken Riley act into law:

    Tim Kaine also had some complaints on the floor of the Senate about the offer for government workers to resign from their posts:
