Core inflation rate rose to 2.7% in May, more than expected, Fed’s preferred gauge shows

Tempo would have voted for this, but he doesn't live in NY or Chicago

Tempo is cultured tho. He's different from me, who lives in a place that is predominantly white.

"Nike also said it would reduce supply from China to the US market to bring down costs."
Good.

Good.

So they will get it from Vietnam instead? That won't close the expanding trade deficit.....

It’s funny how all the tariff haters completely refuse to acknowledge that companies can pivot and change core behaviors. They do it all the time, for a lot of different reasons.

According to sources who choose to remain anonymous, experts say that most people survived  The Great Recession of April 1, 2025 and the 15 minutes of WW3 of June 22, 2025.

And most people survived The Constitutional Crisis of 2025, a Rwanda/Congo peace agreement and NATO countries deciding to ramp up their defense funding.

Inflation has been lower than expected. There are three reasons.

*Front loading: Importers stocked up on imports early, before tariffs kicked in.

*Stalling by absorbing the cost:  Importers are delaying passing on the cost of tariffs until the rates become clearer. They'd rather eat the cost for now than lose market share by increasing prices prematurely.

*Loophole leveraging. There are a couple or so ways to postpone the imposition of tariffs or even a temporary exemption.

There are some good articles that go into more detail. They might be too long for busy or slow readers.

Here is one: https://www.cbsnews.com/news/inflation-trump-tariffs/

"The entire operation was precisely planned and brilliantly executed, even if it remains unclear whether the Iranian nuclear infrastructure was eradicated or just damaged."

https://www.cfr.org/expert-brief/trumps-iran-attack-was-impressive-airpower-has-its-limits

"United States President Donald Trump has declared a “victory for everybody” as the ceasefire that ended 12 days of fighting between Iran and Israel continues to hold, despite uncertainty over the effectiveness of US strikes on Iran’s nuclear sites."

https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2025/6/25/trump-insists-iran-nuclear-sites-destroyed-in-us-strikes-blasts-media

'US strikes failed to destroy Iran's nuclear sites, intelligence report says "

https://www.reuters.com/world/middle-east/trump-announces-israel-iran-ceasefire-2025-06-23/

Suffice to say, Iran was not bombed back to the stone age.

Watched a short piece from Victor Davis Hanson last night about how Iran is hated the world over, but of the very few groups on earth that support them right now are American Democrats/Progressives.

It’s absolutely amazing how Trump has most of the left rabidly supporting deeply unpopular overall political positions, including openly wishcasting that the air strikes to limit Iran’s ability to build nuclear weapons weren’t successful.

No one here really knows how effective the strikes were, but there has definitely been an eagerness from the American left to embrace Iranian reports that the bombs didn’t do anything. These people won’t give Trump a W no matter what he does, even when it’s something that very clearly benefits America/the world.

These people are ideologically captured and cannot be trusted. Luckily they have the Democrat party so crippled that the midterms should be a walk in the park and the good guys can continue to rid our country (and the world) of the criminal scum that Obama3 let run rampant during his 4 year snooze.

And from Senator Bernie Moreno
"But, Laura, I'm going to give you some breaking news. One of the Democrats that you just had on your program was in the confidential briefing in the Skiff today and said to General Caine, the operation that you ran will go down in the annals of American history as the greatest military operation ever conducted. A Democrat said that today. What's sick, Laura, is that they then go on TV and --

INGRAHAM: Wow.

MORENO: -- do everything possible politically to undermine the administration. This is not what they believe. This is just pure political grotesque behavior. It infuriates me. Look, I'm just going to call it like it is. Maybe I'm breaking Senate protocol here. But, look, I can't stand these guys that say something in private and they go out publicly and contradict it only to score cheap political points which weakens this country and undermines our military.

INGRAHAM: So, Murphy or Blumenthal or Schumer or Mark Warner. Can you just tell was it one of those guys?

MORENO: Look, Laura, you're -- you got it."
