(1) Remember me asking why the Port of Los Angeles was not updating their December CARGO results?
Remember me asking about why this unusual delay?

(4) You know why that matters?
Because imports are deductions to the GDP equation.
By holding back the Dec port data, the import number to the BEA equation couldn't be deducted. The GDP data is manipulated (inflated) by not deducting the value of the December imports.

(5) Wasn't there a recent visit to the port of LA by someone attached to the White House?

(9) Instead, what they did was move the ships further offshore to hide what they were doing. To give the illusion of less congestion and increased effort.
They never put the ports on 24/7 operations. It was all a lie.

(12) So, now what we have is a situation where not only did the Biden administration manipulate a false impression of a port supply chain improvement.
