This is going to get good.

You think all of a sudden the same people who were resisting the release of the files for years are now going to say "release them!" ? You know, all the other rich and powerful politicians and Hollywood elite who went to Epstein Island regularly are simply going to sacrifice themselves to nail Trump?

If I move again, and I probably will, I am hiring a moving company. No two ways around it.

Reflecting an importers’ perspective, Smith conveyed the dilemma of Hacea needing to ensure its own survival in the face of untenable new tariffs while still supporting its small-business customers.

Smith said the company is facing more than $260,000 in new tariff costs so far this year, which are due prior to the release of the 581,191 pounds of coffee currently in contract for import. The company will have to seek financing in order to cover those costs, resulting in additional costs on top of the tariffs, Smith said.

“If we were to absorb a 10% tariff — assuming it stayed only at 10% — it would wipe out our margin, every single penny of it,” said Smith. “It would wipe out our business so quickly. But then we’re also nervous about if we have to pass it on. We care really deeply for small businesses who have also dedicated themselves to the betterment of our industry. We’re really worried about their ability to make it through those sorts of difficulties.”
