Who Killed the Economy? By Craig Bergman

 


"Trump killed the Stock Market" and then came the rant of "history" of Tariffs. So here you go so this is not lost.

Saying Tariffs are historically bad, is neither history nor a lesson. And it is false in almost all the assumptions. Like taking facts and making a narrative of them which is not at all what did, is, or will happen.

The main narrative in all this are three lies. And yes I do mean, the intentional effort to manipulate, deceive, then take unjust advantage over another. Commandment breaking: Lie.

I say that just in case anyone may think I mean, a difference of opinion.  I mean intentional misrepresentation of fact for ill gain.

So, here they are:

Free trade is possible.  Not in a fallen world. And not with partners who take your money build armies, navies, and state directly their intent to destroy you. That is China.  Why do we trade with them and not say Russia?

Why did the USSR's economy falter and China's did not?  We gave our trade money to China and we have had sanctions on and off with Russia for 100 years.

And a lessor degree with Europe who is pretty far now from a free and moral people, if that matters to anyone.  It does to the definition of FREE.

As for Canada and Mexico, those are totally different Tariffs and are far more political than anything to do with economics. Although since NAFTA days this same "slave labor is OK look the other way" mentality has been expanding.  This is the very other side of the same coin politically.

Cheap labor was the primary driver of the Civil War.  We only framed it as a moral issue because, well, it was a moral issue too.

But the main claim is "the market".  Seriously?  And then to bring up the Great Depression?  And Tariff acts?  It was the INCOME TAX people.  It was 90%.

They KILLED the creation of capital.  Period. Full Stop.  The Lie of the left for the near last 100 years since has been, it wasn't US, it was those Republicans and their Tariffs.

They lie then, they lie now, about everything.  Every Single Thing.

There is NO truth in them. Why believe this ONE lie as if they are not doing the same thing on this? Then believe your own lying eyes.

The Dow one year ago.  Today.  Was 38,500.  Today is it 40,500. UP 2000.  What in what world is that a problem?  

And yes it will go up and down, as millions bet against each other. It IS a market after all.

So bet.  2026 April 4th.  Which will be be:  41, 500+ or 37,500-??

Go short it. I dare ya.  I double dog dare ya. Not only is the headline horrid, it is intentionally so.

And I am betting on the 41K over that 37K.  100% no question at all.

Grok Talks Iowa Politics: By G.C. Stevens

Image
  We asked Grok to assess three Iowa Republican Gubernatorial Candidates: Brad Sherman, Eddie Andrews and Randy Feenstra.  This is what AI gathered from available content: Eddie Andrews, an Iowa State Representative and Republican candidate for governor , has a complex relationship with Trump and MAGA ideals, based on available information. As a Black Republican, Andrews has been associated with the Republican Party’s expansion in Iowa during a period when Donald Trump won the state decisively in 2020, suggesting some level of alignment with the broader Republican base that supports Trump. However, there is no direct evidence in the provided sources that explicitly states Andrews fully embraces or identifies with the MAGA movement or its core ideologies, such as nativism, economic protectionism, or anti-immigration policies, as outlined in descriptions of MAGA. Andrews’ campaign and legislative record emphasize priorities like mental health, education, parental rights, and fis...

Grok updates its view on the Race for Iowa Governor

Image
  The 2026 Iowa gubernatorial election is an open seat race. Incumbent Republican Governor Kim Reynolds is not seeking re-election. The primary is scheduled for June 2, 2026, with the general election on November 3, 2026. Current Landscape (as of early May 2026) Democrats: State Auditor Rob Sand is running unopposed in the primary and is the presumptive nominee. He has cleared the Democratic field and enters the general election with significant momentum for a Democrat in a state that has trended Republican. Republicans: A crowded five-candidate primary. U.S. Rep. Randy Feenstra (IA-4) is the clear frontrunner and is expected to win the nomination, though he faces some intra-party criticism. Other candidates include State Rep. Eddie Andrews, farmer/businessman Zach Lahn, former state Rep. Brad Sherman, and former Dept. of Administrative Services Director Adam Steen. Prediction markets and betting (e.g., Polymarket) give Feenstra a strong lead (around 75%) in the GOP primary. Head-t...

The End of 2000 Years, Aliens and Those without God By G.C. Stevens

Area 51 UFO recreated by x AI Grok 4.3 I say this because many deceivers, who do not acknowledge Jesus Christ as coming in the flesh, have gone out into the world. Any such person is the deceiver and the antichrist. 2 John 1:7 Headlines, stories from online resources, podcasters and mainstream news outlets, have been talking about the Trump administrations release of once classified documents concerning UFO's and UAP's (Unidentified Fly Objects and Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena).  The author of this article has been tracking the UFO phenomena for over fifty years. That interest started with learning of the story of the abduction of Barney and Betty Hill in 1961. The 1940's to 1960s was not just the era in which human flight stepped into the future, when the sound barrier was broken, when the Nasa space program began and when men (allegedly) walked on the walked on the moon, it was also when the first "UFO flap" occurred and when a private pilot by the name of K...
