For everyone saying political violence has no place in this country…
Remember two Democratic legislators were shot in Minnesota just this year.
And America shrugged and moved on.

Don’t know who needs to hear this but if you have stuff in the cloud that is not in your own country and is living on some US server, you need to fix that asap.
If you’re in Canada, you need to move your data and servers to Canada.

Well, here we go: consumer prices are going up again, thanks to Trump's new across-the-board 25% import taxes (tariffs) on all goods from Mexico and Canada, and 10% on those from China. All three nations have warned they will respond with reciprocal tariffs against U.S. exports.

Trump tariffs go into effect today.
Canada & Mexico - 25%
China - 10%
There will be retaliatory tariffs.
Consumer prices will go up across the board.
The markets will panic.
Fear and financial anxiety will set in.
It's by design.
They're priming us for their big heist.

Happy #BlackHistoryMonth. This year I decided where I wanted to focus my BHM educational posts was in Racial Violence. This is to equip you to rebut when people insist it's "all in our past" or doesn't apply today. For today, I'd encourage you to look at this link:

This is your annual reminder to be explicit about teaching the kids that White people & historically white institutions didn’t give us #BlackHistoryMonth.
Kids’re filling in gaps & getting it wrong.
We didn’t need permission; we made it ourselves (in 1915)!
