A tweet by Casey Ames. We have an order in currently with our factory that in 2024 would have been $4,707 in tariffs After "Liberation Day" it'll be $101,673 and will be due about June 15th, right when it hits the US Port How is anyone supposed to plan for this? Especially small businesses like mine? Another 50% tariff on this order would add $90k in tariffs on it, bringing the new total to $191,000 in tariffs Which pretty much means it'd be worth abandoning this shipment and shutting down the physical product side of our business. And for anyone who cares, we are the highest quality brand for products for kids with special needs.

WH Press Sec Karoline Leavitt clarifies that the crazy 104% China tariffs formally take effect at midnight tonight (00.00am, April 9).

Here is one real world, disastrous impact for a company providing products for kids with special needs. 👇

The Washington Post is now reporting that Christopher Wray intends to resign as director of the FBI, rather than forcing Trump to fire him.

Way to comply in advance, big guy.

targets, the District Court reasonably concluded that the balance of the equities tips toward preliminary relief pending full consideration of the merits. Its analysis of the last two preliminary injunction factors was not arbitrary or unreasonable. The court did not manifestly abuse its discretion, and its injunction was not overbroad. 156 Finally, both parties have submitted notices of supplemental authority, citing recent cases considering challenges to various laws regarding gender-affirming care. Without exception, the additional authority pertains to claims grounded in the equal protection clause or otherwise based on alleged unlawful discrimination. Some of the authorities also reference new developments in research and evidence that was not part of the record presented to the District Court in the preliminary injunction proceedings. Because, on the record here, the District Court's conclusions on Montana's express privacy protections are sufficient to uphold its preliminary injunction, we affirm on that basis. The parties will have the opportunity during the merits proceeding for full development of the record, where their experts may offer insight on any new research, and for briefing on the current case law relative to their claims. CONCLUSION 157 The District Court made no error of law and did not manifestly abuse its discretion. We affirm its grant of a preliminary injunction on the basis of Plaintiffs' right to privacy claim. The case will proceed to trial, at which point the District Court will finally resolve the disputed facts and issue a final determination on the constitutional issues presented. /S/ BETH BAKER 32 We Concur: /S/ MIKE McGRATH /S/ LAURIE MCKINNON /S/ INGRID GUSTAFSON /S/ DIRK M.

Incredible news! Montana’s Supreme Court just affirmed that the state’s gender affirming care ban is likely unconstitutional.

This makes the state the first state Supreme Court to rule that trans medical care is protected.

This applies REGARDLESS of what the US Supreme Court does.
