Tomorrow, February 1, the Trump administration will slap 25% tariffs on Canada and Mexico, and a 10% tariff on China, as announced during Friday's press briefing by White House spox Karoline Leavitt, who denied reports of a delay to March 1.

There will be no delay, selective targeting, or slow roll-out of phased-in tariffs as speculated by Goldman Sachs and Deutsche Bank.

That said, there could be certain exemptions - such as for oil and gas, which Leavitt did not elaborate on. For now, all we have to go on is Trump's most recent comments on oil:

"It depends on what the price is. If the oil is properly priced, if they treat us properly — which they don’t," he said Thursday while speaking with reporters.

The United States imported nearly 4.6 million barrels of oil per day from Canada in October, and 563,000 barrels from Mexico. Daily US production over the same period averaged nearly 13.5 million barrels per day.

That 10% on Chyna may have made them angry enough to take some planes out…

Their economy is struggling and will not help the CCP…

The New York Times is wrong about vaccines containing aluminium being a “good thing”

By Rhoda Wilson on January 31, 2025

A recent New York Times article claimed that aluminium in vaccines is “a good thing.” Aluminium toxicity experts told The Defender the chemical was never sufficiently safety tested by the industry, is toxic and continues to be used in vaccines because it’s more profitable than safer alternatives.

4 Things the New York Times Got Wrong About Aluminium in Vaccines

By Brenda Baletti as published by Children’s Health Defense on 27 January 2025

This article is part of a series of articles by The Defender responding to the latest media coverage of vaccines.

A New York Times article published on 24 January online claimed that aluminium used in childhood vaccines is necessary, well-tested and safe.

Aluminium in vaccines is “a good thing” the headline said and “vaccine scientists” find it “strange” that people – like Robert F. Kennedy Jr. – raise questions about it because there is no indication in aluminium’s nearly 100 years of use in vaccines that there are any problems.

President-elect of the American Academy of Paediatrics Dr. Andrew Racine – who is not a “vaccine scientist” – told the New York Times, “If there was something jumping out about a lack of safety, we would most likely have seen it someplace, and it just doesn’t appear.”

The article is one of several published recently by media outlets including the Daily Tribune, The Conversation and FactCheck.org, defending the use of aluminium in drugs designed for infants.

The Defender spoke with several top researchers on aluminium toxicity and aluminium adjuvants. They said aluminium adjuvants in vaccines are poorly understood by the pharmaceutical industry and have not been appropriately safety tested against a placebo.

They also said there is evidence that the toxic chemical can wreak havoc on the immune system.

The media’s claims ignore decades of research and extensive evidence that aluminium ought to be completely eliminated as a vaccine ingredient, they said.
