So this is how it starts.

via a dispute over Greenland, which is the most absurd, funniest and stupidest and thus typically American way to do it with our TV host at the head of the government.

So it is in some ways fitting.

Yeah, that makes sense.

The tariffs are also we haven't even talked about the tariffs, like because the the text kind of took over the tariff story today.

But like we're now we're doing we're going back into we're levying tariffs on ourselves again.

Right.

There's a new study out.

Ninety six percent of the tariffs so far have been borne by Americans, only four percent on foreign exporters.

So now we're just charging Americans more for these tariffs because of Greenland.

And then if we end up buying Greenland as opposed to taking it by force, where's that money coming from?

I know he'll probably say, oh, it's coming from the oil or the sale of the rare earth minerals.

But that's just a lie.

So obviously it's going to come from the Treasury.

So that's going to be more money from us, too.
