I’m curious why he says it will need to be litigated. I’m not familiar with the procedural aspects of who would actually litigate the issue. But fundamentally the executive branch illegally collected $1.75 billion from companies and/or importers so saying that is essentially the same as saying he thinks the Executive branch should not voluntarily return it.

I bought my White Road Boss from a salvage yard in Southern Delaware. It had been owned for many years by a poultry farm in Maryland on the Delmarva peninsula. When I was driving through that area it was nothing but chicken farm after chicken farm. Mile after mile of poultry operations. The guy at the salvage yard said all the farms around were either owned by Purdue or private farms that had contracts with Purdue.

I don’t know what the specific question asked of him was but I think it had something to do with immigration policy. To which he replied: “There's obviously a lot going on that I'm not the biggest fan of, wearing the flag doesn't mean I represent everything that's going on in the U.S. I'm representing my friends and family back home, the people that represented it before me, all the things that I believe are good about the U.S. I just think if it aligns with my moral values, I feel like I'm representing it." I don’t see how that could mean he has no desire to represent the US in the Olympics. If someone loves their country probably one of the most patriotic things one could do is question and speak out about their government. Especially when it’s corrupt to the core and has not served its citizens in any meaningful way in decades. Hess went on to say after being called a real loser: "I’m not going to let controversy like that get in my way. I love the United States of America. I cannot say that enough. My original statement, I felt like I said that, but apparently, people didn’t take it that way. I’m so happy to be here, so happy to represent Team USA." it’s hard to believe the POTUS would publicly call one of the US’ Olympians a real loser for the whole world to see but honestly nothing surprises me anymore.

That is correct. The Supreme Court is saying the method in which they are imposed is not legal.

Imagine being the President of the United States and publicly calling an native born Olympian representing the USA a loser. Wild times....

"The justices rejected Trump’s expanded use of the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA) in imposing tariffs on nearly every country. The 1970s-era law allows the president to “regulate” imports when necessary to respond to national emergencies that pose an “unusual and extraordinary” threat. “We claim no special competence in matters of economics or foreign affairs,” Chief Justice John Roberts wrote. “We claim only, as we must, the limited role assigned to us by Article III of the Constitution. Fulfilling that role, we hold that IEEPA does not authorize the President to impose tariffs.” " Supreme Court strikes down bulk of Trump's tariffs The ruling made no mention of the tariff revenues already collected. My guess is that will be a whole different legal battle. Ultimately the citizens are the ones who got the shaft and will never recover the funds they paid in inflated prices. However, my guess is we have not heard the last on this from the Executive Branch.

I'm just happy the Supreme court cut their BS and finally handed down their ruling on tariffs. They heard the arguments back in November. Turns out imposing blanket tariffs on every US trading partner is not legal under the current scheme of an "international economic emergency". What a mess with the billions already collected.

Heck The A model didn't come out until the late 1940s. If anything it should have been a Mack E model. Specifically an EH, which was a variant specifically built for the military.

If I remember correctly from his signature forum member @R.E.D is from Houston. Maybe if he gets on and see this he can point you toward the work. For some reason I remember him having an early style Granite triaxle dump truck.

That would be a good retirement gig for you. Being its a grain truck it probably only operates for a month or two during harvest in the fall. You could show up and be this guys wheelman for a few weeks then go home. From what I hear anymore these big farms are hurting for help especially around harvest. Honestly he’s probably dumping it because nobody can or wants to drive a manual anymore.

Interesting. I never knew this. I never really paid any attention to MHs. In fact I can't recall ever seeing one up close in person. I have never cared for cabovers of any kind and truth be told If I was ever in the presence of an MH at a truck show I most likely walked past it without giving it much attention.

Another pass along. No affiliation. Just a real nice condition neat old MH grain truck. What's interesting is it seems to have an enlarged frame section behind the cab typical of a DM frame. I don't think I have ever noticed or seen that on an MH. Perhaps due to the length of the wheelbase it was required. 1984 Mack MH600 - Commercial Vehicles - Bettsville, Ohio | Facebook Marketplace | Facebook

I notice from Mack's website the MP8 has been renamed the MP13. Or maybe its a "new" engine to be offered alongside the MP8? I can't tell. Looks like max specs are 515hp and 1950 ft*lb.

Years from now I think she will look at her testimony here with great embarrassment and shame. She will wonder how she was manipulated into speaking like that and showing such disdain for the victims.

NAFTA 2.0 or USMCA was Trump's baby going back to 2018. Formally ratified by him in March of 2020. Now he wants to quit his own trade deal. The US Supreme Court needs to issue their ruling on the legality of the tariffs immediately.
