Angel Hernandez is the umpire that got more calls wrong than right. He was pretty much forced to retire.

This seems like a waste of time and money?

He should have retired been fired YEARS ago!
Possibly the worst umpire in the history of baseball.

drumpf 2.0 - make america gag again.
The whole thing has been a waste of time and money.  They'll skim what they can, tank the economy, and leave it for the next (dem) admin to clean up, just like 2008.

Libertarians really don't like tariffs? 


Trump's Tariffs Were Supposed To Cut the Trade Deficit and Boost U.S. Manufacturing. They're Not Working.
For Trump, tariffs are a solution to every problem, and his trade war is more about the vibes than the economics.

"Thankfully, U.S. Trade Representative Jamieson Greer offered some more objectively measurable goals during an April 2025 hearing with the House Ways and Means Committee. When Rep. Brendan Boyle (D–Pa.) pressed Greer on what success would look like, Greer offered two clear metrics in response.

"The [trade] deficit needs to go in the right direction," Greer said. "Manufacturing as a share of [gross domestic product] needs to go in the right direction."

More than six months later, neither goal is any closer to being achieved. More importantly, neither seems likely to be completed over the long term by an economic policy rooted in barriers to trade."

[jstell]

continues to state the obvious:
"A separate survey conducted by the Dallas Federal Reserve in August 2025 found that just 2.1 percent of business owners believed the tariffs had a positive impact. "The effect is most widespread in manufacturing, where more than 70 percent of firms noted negative impacts," the survey reported."

and ends with:
"administration's tariff policies misunderstand the value of trade in a productive, flourishing economy. The administration has set the wrong goals and then made policy choices that are unlikely to achieve them."

ah, the orange idiot.
