Glennon raised the stakes of the moment in broader civilizational terms: “This election in Illinois is not about the usual pedestrian issues… it’s about nothing less than whether Western civilization survives in our democratic republic of America because [the left], just on the open border alone, will destroy the country, and now they’re bringing in the jihadists, frankly, into the party.” Audio and summary linked here.Audio and summary linked here.
New Trier High School made national headlines nine years ago as a “canary in a coal mine” for political indoctrination in public schools. The canaries lived.
Among the consequences of economic growth that badly lags national averages are billions of lost revenue every year. Yet denial reigns in Illinois, fueling the vicious cycle of demand for higher taxes.
I would love to buy this car, but cannot because America does not want to destroy the US car companies. This car is now the best in the world at a low price and we cannot get it. Tariffs hurt the US consumer; they are nothing but a TAX.

This guy’s entire business model is dependent on cheap and exploitative Third World labor.
A very bad choice.
Zero sympathy from me.
Absolutely. That’s the point of the tariffs; returning jobs to our country. Common sense follows that with more jobs less welfare is needed making things better for all not only including the assemblers but also construction workers to build the building, power company jobs to provide the utilities needed so on and so forth. Come to think of it, that guy is simply unpatriotic as he feeds his personal financial greed with the use of third world low paid workers.
Hold on guys. Don’t you think comparative advantage is real — if there are fair, reciprocal trade terms? If you do, that means more jobs here. Yes, I fully understand that unfair, nonreciprocal trade relationships have bee far too routine for America for decades. Trump had it right when he initially said tariffs would be to achieve reciprocity and cancel out the unfairness. That was uncontroversial. Now, he imposes tariffs for whatever upsets him. In the case of low end products like toys, it would be darn hard to make them at a reasonable price using US labor. Nobody would… Read more »

Wolff Response: “Trump’s Great Tariff Swindle” Dated October 29, 2025
Seriously, Richard Wollf???
LOL
He’s a f88king Marxist who advocates replacing capitalism.
another lifetime commie resident of the college faculty lounge whose never lived a day of his life in the private sector.
But he knows best, right???
I did a quick Google and saw some of these for 24.97. Somehow I think these little fur balls could be made here in the states or similar products made here could be substituted. They amount to from what I can see is the equilivant of a rubber ball to be squeezed to supposedly control children’s emotions. I wonder how the world got along this far without these little gizmos…just more cheap foreign made junk that is priced based upon owners greed that I think was cherry picked to be sent to the Supreme Court by certain political forces
Mark,
Trump has secured nearly $20 trillion in manufacturing investments that are about to transform communities across the US but Republs run away from his achievements instead of championing them.
Construction jobs are booming where Japanese and S Korean investments are landing.
Manufacturing jobs will follow as these plants come online over the next 6-18 months.
but if Republs dont understand and ARTICULATE this transformation we will keep losing winnable races due to Republs refusal to acknowledge that he is building our economy from the ground up
Agreed, but I think that’s a different subject.
I would not be shocked if Supreme Court rules unanimously against Trump on this.
At least 6-3. Trump is a disaster, although probably not for much longer.
Trump has secured $20 trillion in foreign investment in domestic manufacturing.
What a disaster – for you.
