Chillicothe, Ohio — Republican J.D. Vance, running against Rep. Tim Ryan (D-OH) for Ohio’s open United States Senate seat, says the U.S. needs a “committed national policy of tariffs” to “rebuild the industrial heartland of America.” Vance, whose best-selling memoir Hillbilly Elegy chronicled the deindustrialization of Middletown, Ohio, where he spent his childhood, told Breitbart News in an exclusive interview that a national industrial policy is vital to revitalizing what was once the heartbeat of American manufacturing. The interview with Vance happened over lunch after one of Vance’s stops in Chillicothe — roughly 100 miles outside of Cincinnati — when he was making a swing through southeast Ohio

Tariffs are paid by the consumers who purchase items with a tariff. It a hidden indirect tax. Is this a good thing?! You decide.

"Tariffs are paid by the consumers who purchase items with a tariff." That's certainly what I was taught. The question is, however, do we want certain critical activities/products independent of foreign country control (e.g., steel, fuel, medical supplies, certain manufacturing, etc.).

He’s talking about charging tariffs on foreign imports which would produce income and reinvestment in US companies resulting in more jobs since Americans could produce same products at competitive prices in the USA. Trump got this started, JD is proposing a policy encompass all aspects of US manufacturing not just steel aluminum etc. Include Autos, TVs, computers, phones, everything.

The Smoot Harley Tariff act of 1930 was key in prolonging the Great Depression and spreading it globally. Stupid idea to make tariffs a National policy.

Here’s the problem, folks, the left sees no problem with voter fraud in their favor. They are so sure that they are right they willl use any means to retain power. Because, of course, they are right. Morality, honesty means nothing to them because they feel they should rule by divine right. Nothing is beyond them in the lust to tell you how to act and think. They will cheat, lie, intimidate to get the results they want. Please vote and please stop these criminals from stealing elections.

Tariffs are just like anything else in this world. They can be used for good are for bad. Other commenters have stated the bad. Tariffs can be used for national security to keep companies, (like far too many in the U.S.), from shipping crucial technology to somewhere else just for the almighty dollar. They can also be used to help balance the scale between domestic companies and foreign countries that use slave labor. Another very important thing they can be used for is to protect domestic businesses that have to try to make a living in spite of rules and regulations form an unhinged executive branch of government (EPA for example) from being undercut by companies in another (developing) nation where they do not have to deal with the immense costs of those same rules and regulations.

What the U.S. needs is a political party that will reduce the size of government in DC. DC is spending the country into ruin, has gotten into wars we should never have been involved in, and is into every detail of everyone's lives. The anger of America is because nobody worries about their families or jobs, instead 100% focused on DC. We need to get back to work and our families, and DC needs to shrink by a lot.

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) said Monday on CNN’s “Anderson Cooper 360” that the Republican Party is “yielding to a cult” and a “thug” in former President Donald Trump. Cooper said, “The former president of the United States, Donald Trump, Elon Musk, others have spread stories casting doubt on what happened, fomenting conspiracy theories. What do you have to say to them?” Pelosi said, “It’s really sad for the country that people of that high visibility would separate themselves from the facts and the truth in such a blatant way. It’s really sad, and it is traumatizing to those affected by it. They don’t care about that, obviously.

Pennsylvania Democratic lieutenant governor John Fetterman’s U.S. Senate campaign filed a lawsuit Monday against state election officials, arguing that mail ballots with an incorrect or blank date should be counted in Tuesday’s election.

On November 3, 2020, as election night rolled into election morning, Jill and Joseph Biden walked out alone on stage to stand before a crowd of brand-new Jeeps. “We feel good about where we are. We really do,” Joe Biden said to the occasional honk from the vehicles. It was an odd scene on an odd election night—with Michigan, Wisconsin, Georgia, Nevada, North Carolina, and Pennsylvania determined too close to call. Just as oddsmakers and media pundits began tipping their hand—that somehow Trump had managed to pull it off again—network broadcasts announced, almost in unison, that states were largely done counting for the evening.

President Joe Biden was interrupted by three separate hecklers on Monday night at his final campaign rally ahead of the midterm election. 'You're a disgrace,' one of them shouted at the president.

Both events, Wolfe wrote, ‘gave the average American a thrill of pleasurable anticipation. It was the desire of a man to see a good show, to “take sides” vigorously in an exciting contest . . . but not to be too deeply troubled or concerned by the result’. What a difference 90-odd years can make. For according to President Joe Biden, today’s midterm elections are not between the Democrats and Republicans, but between democracy itself

Trump mocked DeSantis as "Ron DeSanctimonious" while discussing the 2024 Republican presidential primary at a rally in Pennsylvania. The pair is widely considered to be the top contenders for the Republican nomination, though DeSantis has offered no indication he intends to run. Commentators called out Trump for creating division in the ranks just three days before the midterm elections.

Chinn's lawyers had petitioned the court to take his case, arguing that the prosecution withheld evidence that a key witness who identified him as the shooter was mentally disabled.

Democrat Pennsylvania Senate candidate John Fetterman said in a memo to reporters to “buckle up for a long week” because the ballot counting process could take “several days.” Why? The only reason why Democrats need to count ballots for several days after Election Day is to overcome the Republican candidate’s vote count and steal the election. Fetterman used the 2020 election as an example in his memo to reporters and recalled how Trump was ahead by more than 700,000 votes at midnight on Election Day in Pennsylvania but still lost after the Democrats counted ballots in secret for Joe Biden for 2 weeks.

n yet another sign of the Big Tech industry’s woes, social media giant Meta Platforms, Inc., the parent company of Facebook, is planning on laying off thousands of employees as early as Wednesday, according to the Wall Street Journal. This follows news that Twitter boss Elon Musk ordered wide-scale layoffs at his company last week, cutting staff by 50 percent from about 7,500 to 3,750. (Weirdly, there are reports circulating Sunday that he’s already asking some of them to come back.) These will be the first large-scale terminations in the history of the 18-year-old company. Employees were told to cancel nonessential travel beginning this week, according to reports.
