Lori Mullins, director of operations at Rogers & Brown Custom Brokers, stressed that the decision does not grant or guarantee refunds. “They have remanded this back down to the lower courts to decide if refunds will be issued. Without knowing for certain, many believe that the refunds will not be issued retrospectively,” she said. For importers hoping for refunds, “the answer is yes, we have a ruling but we do not have a ruling on if any refunds will be granted. That will be handled by a lower court at a future date/ time,” she said.

That lower court ruling, if in favor of refunds, will be announced in a single issue of Springfield's local neighborhood paper on Page 4 in small print. You'll have 3 hours to file for a refund or we will consider the matter closed.

It'll be interesting to see how they handle it. Like the tariff on my car was 15%, but how much was eaten by Porsche, I have no idea.

The Department of Homeland Security said on Sunday that T.S.A. PreCheck, a program that allows travelers to move through airport security more quickly, would remain available, hours after announcing that it would be suspended.
Realize how stupid it is, I guess. TACO?

$10 says someone from Clear had something to do with that initial announcement.

Jan claims "straight white conservative man" after every single shooting.

I'm simply tired of being blamed for, literally, everything. Just stick us on the cattle cars already.

US Men's Hockey speak on Trump invites and such.
"Yeah, we're excited. Everything is so political. We're athletes. We're so proud to represent the U.S. When you get the chance to go to White House and meet the president, we're proud to be Americans, and that's so patriotic," he said in Miami on Monday. "No matter what your views are, we're super excited to go to the White House tomorrow and be a part of that."
Yep. Now imagine serving your country under a commander in chief you didn't vote for. Being sent to war. Etc.

The "not my president" people are the absolute epitome of "selfish cunts". So full of self-importance that they truly think their morals and opinions are beyond reproach.

You respect the office no matter what color tie.

This will also get a lot of play before the midterms and 2028 general. Credit where it's due, he played them and got exactly what he wanted.

And every single person that remained sitting basically broke their oath. I realize what they did was mandated by their party, but that's the problem. They (and I say "they" as BOTH parties) have firmly put party over country.
Honestly, this theatrical, divisive horseshit that both sides engage in during SotU speeches needs to go. Respect the fucking office. You don't boo. You don't give the finger. You don't make it a point to roll your eyes back as dramatically as possible knowing you're on camera. You don't tear up the script. Etc.

The more this shit goes on, the more likely it becomes that blood will be shed because of it.

If you cannot sit and listen to POTUS for a speech without acting like a fool, then you're a part of the problem. If we culled all the people who bought into the theatrics, the world would be a better place. Prove me wrong.

He'll be out of office by the time they straighten out the tariffs.
