is probably as important as the dollar amounts at least in the early stages because you need a lot more but you want everybody to think everybody's doing it. Like you need people to just think oh this is the thing now. This is what we do. And I think he's actually achieved that.

Eric Daugherty on X says that HP is looking to move a lot of their operations from China to the U.S. in response to Trump's tariffs. So there's another story. The tariffs are working at least in that limited sense.

And meanwhile Trump's telling farmers to get ready to produce more food to sell inside the U.S. because he's putting tariffs on external food coming in starting April 2nd. Now the tariffs for Canada and Mexico kicked in today, 25% on most things but energy is a little cheaper, 10%. And I think Canada's already matched it with 25%. I haven't heard from Mexico yet but one assumes it'll match it. So the trade war is on. But at the same time, we'll talk more about that.

OPEC announced that it's going to increase oil production according to The Hill. Now if you increase oil production that should drive the price of oil down because it increases supply. And I don't know if that's net good or bad for the United States because if prices are high then we drill a lot more in the United States because everything you do would make money. It's like whoa oil is so high. If it goes down then even some of the wells we already drilled, somebody's going to say oh this was a good idea before but now the price went down so they might just cap it. So it certainly should help with the price of your eggs and it certainly should help with inflation eventually and I don't think there's anything bigger. So OPEC producing more is just about the best thing that could ever happen for Trump. You know it's the one thing that everybody agrees lowers inflation or at least prices today. So that's good news.

Meanwhile X, the X platform, is doing more great work for free speech. So California introduced this censorship law for social media and the essence of it is they require, they want to require the social media platforms to have their own censorship standards but it's all kind of squishy stuff like do you have a definition of hate speech, what is your definition of racism, and all these things have that uh-oh thing to them. It's like okay we don't want hate speech, we don't want any racism, but as soon as you say it's somebody's job to decide when it happened then everything looks like hate speech
