MEXICO CITY - In a move likely to stir controversy, Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum announced on Monday, that Mexico has officially renamed the Liberty Bell “the TACO Bell”.

"Effective immediately, the Philadelphia landmark will be referred to as the TACO Bell in all Mexican atlases, encyclopedias, and history textbooks," she said.

In her announcement, she gave Donald J. Trump “full credit” for the name change. “Thanks to Donald Trump, when one thinks of America, one no longer thinks of liberty,” she said. “One thinks of TACO.”

Word has it that costume rental outlets in the DC area have no chicken costumes remaining to be reserved for June 14th.

This Just In:
Security forces for the parade, and all military personnel participating in it, have been informed to assume that people wearing chicken costumes are suicide bombers ... more to follow when we learn it.

Tacochardia: Cardiac arrhythmia brought on by an upsetting TACO meme

From The Hill:

Vice President Vance slammed Democrats on Tuesday over a taco truck they deployed to mock President Trump with free food outside the GOP headquarters on Capitol Hill.

“We have the lamest opposition in American history,” Vance wrote on the social media platform X in response to a post about the Democratic National Committee’s (DNC) taco truck, which features a depiction of Trump in a giant chicken costume with the words “Trump Always Chickens Out.”

The Trump administration has been hit with the “TACO” moniker on Wall Street over the president’s penchant to renege on policies after they prove to be unpopular.

Democrats have embraced the phrase to more broadly blast the president over his policies.

“Trump always chickens out — we’re just bringing the tacos to match,” DNC Chair Ken Martin said in a statement on the food truck’s message. “Instead of realizing his tariff chaos is wrecking the economy, Trump continues to drag America towards more economic pain, and the rest of the world sees Trump for exactly what he is: a chicken.”

Well, that's disappointing. I thought Vance was smart enough to know better than to feed the trolls - but I guess not.

He should've trolled them right back by going out and buying some tacos from them while mocking them with some clever remarks.

Missed opportunity.

Trump talks like a third grade bully and swaggers around, and that's not to everyone's taste. The veep has long been, in addition to the Official Attender of Funerals and such things, the attack dog. He maintains the dignity of the presidency by ensuring that the president is above all that (not so much in Trump's case, but 47 is trying a little harder than 45 did) while demonstrating that the administration is no pushover.

Johnson did it for Kennedy, Agnew helped Nixon take the edge off, Quayle tried but failed, Gore certainly relished it, and don't get me started on Darth Cheney. Pence was worthless for that.

Leaked email confirms:
Trump administration halts ICE raids on farms, restaurants and hotels

According to The New York Times, an email sent on Thursday by a senior ICE official orders all agents to stop enforcement on agriculture, restaurants and hotels.

The order is in line with comments President Donald Trump made Thursday on social media.

Trump acknowledged that the crackdown is taking good, longtime workers away from those industries, with the jobs being hard to replace.

Well yeah, but wearing a White Sox Hat? - in an appearance in Chicago on the same day as the Glorious Leader's Birthday Parade? And please, I'm a little dense, could you explain the significance of the "7-8 Taco Tuesday".

Trump says Harvard has acted ‘appropriately’ and deal could soon be announced

President Donald Trump said Friday that Harvard has “acted extremely appropriately” during negotiations that could soon result in a deal, signaling a possible major shift in his administration’s efforts to target the university.

“Many people have been asking what is going on with Harvard University and their largescale improprieties that we have been addressing, looking for a solution. We have been working closely with Harvard, and it is very possible that a Deal will be announced over the next week or so,” Trump said in a late afternoon post to social media.

“They have acted extremely appropriately during these negotiations, and appear to be committed to doing what is right. If a Settlement is made on the basis that is currently being discussed, it will be ‘mindbogglingly’ HISTORIC, and very good for our Country,” he added.

I think we have another TACO situation. The last day of the Trump Tariff suspension was supposedly 09JUL; but now we're being told that the TrumpTars won't be raised until 01AUG. I don't know if some countries will see tariffs rise on 10JUL, it's not clear. Should I sell now?

Warren Buffet is dumping US banking stocks ($1B in Citigroup, $2B in Bank of America). Nothing to worry about there.

That is really, really interesting.

We know that the Fed was set up by approximately half a dozen of the largest banks in the country at the time. And we can safely surmise that some of them have merged with each other since, so it's a smaller number today. I can't imagine either Citi or BoA not being in the group. And we know the cashless currency plan is coming to a head.

Could it possibly be that the Fed will be cut out of the currency business, and its current owners with it?
