The Associated Press, that trusted paragon of journalistic excellence, says that the president has stated “Japan will invest 550 billion dollars in the U.S.” at his direction. “Investing.” That’s a nicer word than say “ransom.” This money is being paid to reduce the recently-imposed tariffs placed on the Chinese, and now that they have madeContinue reading “Through the Microscope…”
