„The U.S. has paused most [1] of its tariffs on China – which at one point totaled as high as 145% – as Beijing and Washington continue trade negotiations.
@RonFilipkowski 2).
Chinese-made goods now face a 30% tax upon entering the U.S.; China, in turn, now only imposes a 10% tariff on U.S. goods (@realDonaldTrump has also paused most of his so-called reciprocal tariffs against the rest of the world).
@RonFilipkowski @realDonaldTrump 3).
Despite the pause, Trump’s statements are still generating uncertainty for governments and investors. On Friday, May 23, 2025, @realDonaldTrump promised to slap a 50% tariff on European goods by June 1, stating that negotiations were »going nowhere«.
@RonFilipkowski @realDonaldTrump 4).
He rescinded that threat [2] by Sunday, again saying that tariffs were on hold until early July.”

„Na mocy rozkazu nr 00485 [1], wydanego 11 sierpnia 1937 r. przez Ludowego Komisarza Spraw Wewnętrznych Nikołaja Jeżowa [2], w ramach tzw. operacji polskiej, NKWD aresztowało 140 tysięcy osób. 111 tys. 91 z nich skazano na śmierć.
@sikorskiradek 2).
Podczas wielkiego terroru Polacy ginęli ponad 30 razy częściej niż inni obywatele ZSRR – tylko dlatego, że byli Polakami.

Nad zbrodniami czuwał sam Stalin. Gdy po 20 dniach trwania operacji otrzymał raport od Jeżowa, z entuzjazmem odniósł się do przebiegu represji.

– »Bardzo dobrze! Wykopujcie dalej i usuwajcie ten polski brud. Zniszczcie go w interesie Związku Sowieckiego [3]«.”

„The @WhiteHouse withdrew on Saturday its nominee for @NASA administrator, Jared Isaacman, abruptly yanking a close ally of @elonmusk from consideration to lead the space agency.
@RonFilipkowski @WhiteHouse @NASA @elonmusk 2).
His removal comes days after Muskʼs official departure from the White House, where the @SpaceX CEOʼs role as a »special government employee« leading the @DOGE created turbulence for the administration and frustrated some of @realDonaldTrump's aides.
@RonFilipkowski @WhiteHouse @NASA @elonmusk @SpaceX @DOGE @realDonaldTrump 3).
According to a person familiar with his reaction, @elonmusk was disappointed by Isaacman's removal.

– »It is rare to find someone so competent and good-hearted« – Musk wrote of Isaacman on X, responding to the news.

„Donald Trumpʼs »Big Beautiful Bill« is a reverse-Robin Hood nightmare. It steals from the poor to give to the rich. The 1,038-page version that passed the House will also balloon the deficit by nearly $4 trillion.
2).
The @realDonaldTrump's tax bill achieves this feat by extending (and in many cases expanding) tax breaks for the richest Americans,
3).
while at the same time depriving more than 10 million Americans of health insurance and regular access to their doctors, by axing $880 billion from Medicaid.

„ @elonmusk sometimes refers to people he holds in contempt as »NPCs«, videogame-speak for characters who aren’t controlled by players and thus have no agency.
2).
More than just an insult, the term, I think, reveals something about his worldview. He either doesn’t view most other people as entirely real or doesn’t see the point of treating them as such.
3).
As he told Joe Rogan this year, »The fundamental weakness of Western civilization is empathy«, referring to the emotion as a »bug« in our system.”
