Donald Trump reverses himself and Democrats are trying to figure out what to do.
The trans cult has been taking major blows that should end their insane reign, but our betters keep giving them ammunition.
And I just can’t keep Jasmine Crockett from being on the Dumbass of the Day.
People Should Be Thrilled About This
President Donald Trump’s decision to pause most of the sweeping tariffs he recently imposed has had a significant impact on global markets, trade relationships, and economic sentiment. Here’s an overview of the developments and their implications:
Trump’s Tariff Pause
- Trump announced a 90-day suspension of most tariffs, reducing duties on imports from many countries to 10%, though tariffs on Chinese goods were raised to 125%136.
- The move followed a tumultuous week in financial markets, with trillions in global market value wiped out and U.S. Treasury yields spiking. These factors reportedly influenced Trump’s decision17.
Market Reactions
- Global Stock Rally: U.S. markets surged, with the S&P 500 gaining 9.5%, its largest single-day increase since 2008. The Nasdaq rose 12%, and the Dow climbed nearly 3,000 points24.
- Asian and European markets mirrored this trend, with Japan’s Nikkei index up 8% and European indices such as the FTSE 100 rising over 5%45.
- Despite the rally, U.S. stock futures dipped slightly on Thursday, reflecting lingering uncertainty4.
Winners and Losers
- Winners: Airlines, semiconductor companies, and travel-related businesses saw some of the biggest gains. For instance, United Airlines’ stock surged by 26%, while Delta Air Lines rose by 23%2.
- Losers: China faced higher tariffs and retaliated with steep duties on U.S. goods. Companies heavily reliant on Chinese imports, like Amazon, could face challenges due to increased costs23.
Economic and Trade Implications
- The tariff pause has provided temporary relief to global markets but has left uncertainty about long-term trade policies.
- The European Union paused its retaliatory measures in response to Trump’s announcement but emphasized the need for stable trade conditions35.
- China maintained a firm stance against U.S. tariffs, implementing countermeasures and reducing imports of American films36.
Reasons Behind the Reversal
- The decision was reportedly driven by concerns over market instability and a selloff in U.S. Treasury bonds. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent played a key role in highlighting these risks to Trump17.
- Political pressure from business leaders and allies also contributed to the abrupt policy shift7.
While the tariff pause has calmed markets in the short term, uncertainty remains about whether these measures will be reinstated after the 90-day period or if further trade tensions will escalate.

The Trans Thing Just Keeps Marching Forward
- I like he dismissed non-contact sports.
- He didn’t mention she had permanent damage.
- Hey John, her performance in softball was pretty good so we should ignore her? What would it have been like if she wasn’t permanently injured?
Here’s is some trans news that we can’t skip. That’s because it is being ignored by the media and is really becoming a problem for women.
- Stephanie Turner, a female fencer, was disqualified from the Cherry Blossom Open in Maryland on March 30, 2025, after refusing to compete against Redmond Sullivan, a transgender woman. Turner protested by kneeling and removing her mask prior to the match, stating that she would not fence against Sullivan because she believed it was unfair for a transgender woman to compete in a women’s event. This act of protest resulted in her receiving a black card, which disqualified her from the tournament135.
- The governing body for high school sports in Washington State has announced that it will not ban men from women’s sports following legal threats from Democratic officials.
- Washington state law currently requires educational agencies to allow students to participate in interscholastic sports “that most closely aligns with their gender identity.” The Washington Interscholastic Activities Association (WIAA) previously announced that it had proposed two bylaw amendments that would limit participants in girls’ sports to students who were born as females and prevent students who were born male and now identify as female from competing in girls’ sports following multiple headline-grabbing victories by boys in Washington competing in girls’ events.
- A transgender athlete took home first place in a varsity high jump competition at an Oregon high school meet Wednesday, roughly two years after finishing last while competing against junior varsity boys, according to a report.
- Lia Rose, who reportedly used to compete as Zachary, won the high jump at the Portland Interscholastic League Varsity Relays with a height of 4 feet, 8 inches, beating the second-place finisher by two inches.
- A trans-identified male is lashing out against the New York City Tennis League Network after being banned from competing against women. Cameron ‘Cammie’ Woodman, 25, is now on a crusade to have the Network banned from using public courts by complaining to city officials.
- Last week, Woodman played two sets against female opponents in the Lincoln Terrace Park tennis courts of Brooklyn and was victorious in both matches. One of his opponents then contacted the Tennis League Network’s CEO, Steve Chagnon, to alert him about the presence of a male in the women’s matches. The Tennis League Network is an amateur recreational league with branches nationwide.
- Chagnon, head of the Tennis League Network, forwarded the complaint to Woodman with the accompanying message: “Can we move you over to an appropriate level Men’s Division?”
- Woodman refused the offer, stating: “I am a transgender woman who has been medically transitioning for the past four years. I believe in my integrity as a woman player, as I play women often… I am not willing to join a men’s league where I would have a disadvantage due to my medical transition.”
- He went on to name the woman who had sent in the complaint, and slammed her as “a very inexperienced player who wouldn’t even have rated as high as a 3.0 based on her skills,” and added that he found it “offensive” that she had brought the matter to Chagnon.
- Woodman additionally shared a series of posts further demanding action to “fight transphobia on NY courts” and stating that the Tennis League Network “should be removed from our city’s courts for violating NY Human Rights Law”. He is calling on the New York City Parks Department and the New York City Commission on Human Rights to investigate.
- Professional disc golf athlete Abigail Wilson walked off the tee in protest over the inclusion of a trans-identified male in the women’s competition this week. Wilson found herself being expected to compete against male participant Logan ‘Natalie’ Ryan in the Music City Open held in Nashville, and refused in an act of defiance being celebrated by women’s rights advocates the world over.
- Wilson posted a video of her protest to her Instagram account, saying: “Females deserve to have their gender protected division be protected. This is unfair. I have worked so hard to get to this point to play on the DGPT, but the sacrifice of my career and my hard work is worth it if it means I can make a difference for other women, daughters, nieces, and the future of our sport. If you feel how wrong it is to have biological males be competing in female protected divisions in sports, now is the time to speak up and stand your ground.”
- She added that she had been having “anxiety” about playing against the trans-identified male because of “threats of violence” at last year’s competition, referencing a terrorist threat that had suspended the Music City Open last year.
- When Ultimate Pool crowns a women’s champion for the Pro Series event on Sunday, the winner will be a biological male. That’s because both the finalists, Harriet Haynes and Lucy Smith, are males who “identify” as women.
