"Let me devote this column simply to asking questions. I'm not answering questions; I'm not giving any reactions; I'm just asking. Let me ask first: Was Trump correct to pardon all of the January 6 rioters, including the one who had been convicted of seditious conspiracy and sentenced to 22 years in prison? I'm not opining. I'm not telling you the right answer to this question. I'm just asking."
"Second: Was Trump correct to announce massive tariffs on "Liberation Day" - April 2, 2025 - only then to suspend the planned tariffs because of the massive market turmoil they created? Or maybe he should have thought this through more carefully? Was Trump correct to have the U.S. government take a 10% interest in Intel, or should he have left the free market alone? So, my conservative friends, in what other companies should the government take a stake?"
President Donald Trump pardoned all January 6 rioters, including one convicted of seditious conspiracy and sentenced to 22 years. He announced massive tariffs for April 2, 2025, then suspended them after the resulting market turmoil. The U.S. government took a 10% interest in Intel under his direction. He invited Vladimir Putin to the United States with American troops laying a red carpet and cited concessions to end the war in Ukraine without clear enumerated terms. He hired Tom Homan as a border czar while Homan faced an investigation over an alleged $50,000 cash bag. He announced a $100,000 employer fee for H-1B applications, then clarified it applied only to new 2026 lottery applicants, causing confusion and travel disruptions.
