Woman two versus Trump

BREAKING: Walmart dumps cold water all over the MAGA movement by announcing over $6 billion in investments in Mexico this year — despite Donald Trump's promise that his tariffs would force companies back to America.

The entire tariffs lie just went up in smoke. And it gets even worse for Trump...

Ignacio Caride, President and CEO of Walmart de México y Centroamérica, made the announcement at Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum's morning news conference.

Sheinbaum has proven to be a fierce opponent of Donald Trump, expertly outplaying him at every turn while engendering deep affection from her people. Meanwhile, Trump is despised by most Americans.

Caride said that new store openings will create roughly 5,500 jobs in Mexico.

"Walmart arrived in Mexico more than 65 years ago, and we will be here for the next 30, 60, or 90 years," said Caride.

President Sheinbaum also called out Trump for announcing a new "permanent" 25% tariff on all automobiles imported to the United States—

"Of course, there should be no tariffs within the United States-Mexico-Canada trade agreement. That is the essence of the trade agreement," she said.

She went on to state that she believes that tariffs on Mexican goods can still be avoided. Trump has delayed tariffs on our southern neighbor twice already. That postponement elapses next month — but given Sheinbaum's record of playing Trump like a fiddle, the smart money is on her.

Crucially for Americans, this Walmart announcement reveals the central lie behind Trump's tariffs. Our economy is in shambles and prices are skyrocketing, but MAGA has promised that the "short term" suffering will be worth it when countries flock back to the United States.

That isn't going to happen. The only thing that these tariffs will accomplish is lightening your wallet and destroying your retirement funds.

Woman one versus Trump

BREAKING: Maine Governor Janet Mills hits back hard at Donald Trump after he pathetically demands that she issue a "full throated apology" for daring to publicly challenge him at the White House.

This is how you put the MAGA bully in his place...

"If the current occupant of the White House wants to protect women and girls, he should start by protecting the women and teenage girls who are suffering miscarriages and dying because they can’t get basic, life-saving health care in states across this country," Mills said at an event in Bangor, Maine.

"If he truly cares about women and girls and people of this country, let’s see the economic plan. Let’s see the health care plan. Let’s see the education plan," she continued.

She took a shot at Trump's Truth Social habits by saying that she doesn't communicate with public officials "by social media" and that the Constitution does not permit Trump to "make laws out of gold cloth or by tweet or Instagram posts or press release or executive order.”

“That’s just fundamental law, and I stand for the rule of law and the separation of powers," she added. "Look, the issue isn’t about transgender sports. People in Maine and across the country are waiting for an economic plan from the current occupant of the White House, and so far we’ve seen none."

Trump's demand for an apology came in a Truth Social rant after Mills boldly challenged him during a meeting of governors at the White House. When the president threatened to slash federal funding to states to enforce his trans athlete ban, Mills shouted out "see you in court."

In addition to the apology, Trump asked for a promise that Governor Mills "will never make such an unlawful challenge to the Federal Government again, before this case can be settled."

Of course, there's nothing illegal about Mills voicing opposition to Trump's mounting fascism. His efforts to enforce his will on the states exposes the lie that Republicans support "states' rights."

In truth, they only support states' rights to do exactly what the MAGA cult leader demands.

Hello Friends
It is that time of year when we wait for the lavender to bloom in central New York. While we wait, we are developing new lavender gardens at Sweet Farm in Himrod, NY.

We are spread a bit thin this year at Lavender Crest Farm in Penn Yan and are making a few changes at our Bath Road location.

Our store and gardens will not be open to the public this year. Our apologies if this affects your plans while in the area.

Instead, we want to direct you to Sweet Farm, 211 Hall Road, Himrod, NY 14842. There you will find a friendly farm animal sanctuary and demonstration gardens for practicing regenerative agriculture.

David and Sharon will miss the friendly conversations we’ve had at Lavender Crest Farm in Penn Yan. You have no doubt figured out that there is a third member of the Sweet Family in Himrod, and we know that she will enjoy meeting you as much as we have.

Ever grateful,
David & Sharon Sweet
