Saying that quiet part out loud again. The obvious ingredient is racism
Seems more and more like every headline could be: Senile Old Man Yells at the Sky*.
*with the authority of the US government.
Later: "Okay, my executive order is in effect. But what the hell is a lorrie?"
Literally no trumpees anywhere can tell you their top three works of literature.
This is fact.
Unless it's the old testament, the new testament, and the headlines of faux news
That’s informational text, not literature.
My severely undereducated state rep trumpee Angela Rigas replied to me that her top three works of literature are the bible, constitution, and declaration of independence. She had no response when I told her those aren’t literature.
I was being sarcastic, because I know you'd get a lot of extremely similar answers.
Besides... the Bible is fiction
Fiction would count as literature. I’d say it goes in the self-help section next to the Tony Robbins cassette tape series.
Oof that will crash the trucking industry.
It was going to mostly crash anyway, when the ships stop coming next week, due to the tariffs.
Seattle port looking awfuly vacant and que them for drivers is 0-25 minutes.
How so?
I'm not sure how you could possibly get a CDL without speaking English. Also trucking is a good way to lose money.
Trucking is the quickest way to make $100k/year. It ain't easy hours but demand for drivers is insanely high. My company at one point was offering $15k signing bonus for drivers.
I personally know at least a dozen that I work with daily at work that do not have any English fluency whatsoever.
Actually it's helped my Spanish skills lol
So, they will arrest people for not obeying an executive order that, and IANAL, has no basis in law? How will they be identifying these drivers? What is the justification for pulling them over?
It does seem like an excuse to call ICE.
Combine with ignoring due process, and it looks like a way to get at immigrants.
No, they'll just add it as a requirement to do any work with federal jobs or something.
The executive office in the us has so many levers of power it can pull that they don't really need laws anymore.
He's just trying to solve the issue he caused with the shipping slump.
