Canada and Mexico Move to Retaliate on Trump Tariff Orders

@w7voa I'm old enough to remember when MAGA was furious about "the elites" having power. Elon Musk is reputedly the richest person in the world. He is the de facto co-president, and that might understate his role. There is no one more elite than he is. Elon Musk now has unfettered access to information the U.S. government has on Americans. Where's their fury now?
@w7voa I'll be waiting to see if my social security deposit shows up this month.
