  Duchess Deborah 🇺🇸 🗽 ✝️👑 (@DuchessDeborah) reported 4 minutes ago

  @HarrisonHSmith The claim captures the core dynamic of the 2025–2026 IEEPA tariffs (the broad “emergency” tariffs imposed under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act), which a February 2026 Supreme Court ruling invalidated, triggering large court-ordered refunds. Tariff costs and consumers Tariffs are paid by the U.S. importer (typically a company), not by foreign exporters or directly by end consumers. Economic analyses of the 2025 tariffs found that the large majority of the economic burden fell on U.S. firms and consumers through higher import prices, with substantial pass-through into consumer prices: - Studies (including from the New York Fed and others) estimated that roughly 86–94% (or more in some periods/methodologies) of the incidence was borne domestically rather than by foreign exporters. - Price data and models showed measurable upward pressure on consumer prices (e.g., contributions to CPI/PCE inflation, higher costs on durables and various imported goods categories). Estimates of the household burden in 2025 were on the order of roughly $1,000 on average in some analyses. - Pass-through was not always instantaneous or 100% in every product line—companies sometimes absorbed part of the cost, adjusted supply chains, or raised prices on competing domestic goods—but the overall pattern was higher prices paid by American buyers. This matches the historical pattern from earlier rounds of tariffs as well: the tax is largely borne domestically. Refunds After the Supreme Court struck down the IEEPA tariffs, the Court of International Trade ordered refunds (with interest) of the duties that had been collected. These go to the importers of record—the companies that paid Customs in the first place. Estimates of the total eligible amount have been in the range of roughly $150–180+ billion. - Large companies (Amazon, Apple, Walmart, auto makers, etc.) have been major recipients. Examples reported include Amazon receiving around $600–640 million and Apple noting a multi-billion-dollar boost to gross margin. - The process has favored larger, sophisticated importers; smaller firms have faced more friction and slower recovery. - There is no automatic government refund to individual consumers. Companies decide what to do with the money. Some (notably Amazon) have said they will proactively refund customers in limited, traceable cases where specific tariff costs were passed on, or use funds in ways that could support lower prices more generally. Many others have treated the refunds as improving margins/profits, with limited or no firm commitment to direct consumer rebates. In short: the initial higher costs were widely passed through to (or absorbed in ways that affected) consumers and businesses, while the legal refunds flow to the corporate importers who remitted the duties. Some of that money is being shared with customers in specific situations, but a substantial portion is not automatically or fully returned to the people who paid higher retail prices. This is a common feature of how tariff refunds work when duties are later found invalid—they reimburse the party that paid the government, not necessarily the ultimate end buyer.

  @CultClassicCage Look Cas, you’re missing the forest for the trees. Your argument that 'exclusives are bullshit' completely misunderstands how the console ecosystem has actually operated for 40 years. PlayStation isn't 'making more money than ever' because they abandoned exclusivity; they are coasting on legacy momentum and acting as a digital landlord. Let’s look at the actual math and history because you are confusing correlation with causation and ignores structural market realities. Though I agree your last part? 100 and thousand percent factual. In Sony's last quarterly report, physical games brought in just $128 million and full digital downloads hit $1.20 billion. Meanwhile, 'Add-on Content' (microtransactions, DLC, battle passes) pulled in a staggering $1.83 billion. That microtransaction goldmine isn't coming from Sony's games. Independent analysts show live-service games dominate 60% of the AAA market, but they are third-party giants like Fortnite, Call of Duty, and Roblox. Sony makes money because they trap you in their walled garden, then take a 30% cut of every virtual dollar spent on their platform. If you take away the exclusives, people buy a PC or an Xbox, and Sony loses that landlord tax entirely. You assume going multiplatform opens up an unserved market of 147 million active Steam users. The data says otherwise. When God of War Ragnarok launched on PlayStation, it brought in 6.9 million players in its launch month alone. When ported to PC, analytics firms like Ampere Analysis showed it attracted a measly 300,000 players in its launch month. The same exact thing happened to Spider-Man 2 (260k) and Horizon Forbidden West (230k). Sony execs have openly admitted that if PC players were going to buy a console for these games, they already would have. The multiplatform move is a desperate, failed attempt to scrape an extra $15–$20 million out of an old game and dangle a 'taste' to get PC users to buy hardware. It didn't work. When God of War Ragnarok launched on PlayStation (PS5/PS4), it brought in 6.9 million players in its launch month alone. It went on to cross 15 million copies sold primarily on console. If exclusives didn't matter, Nintendo would have gone bankrupt in the GameCube era. The Switch is mathematically one of the weakest boxes on the market, yet it sold over 140 million units because you cannot play Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom anywhere else. And here is the irony. Nintendo while competing with Sony and Microsoft, doesn't really Compete. Aside from Palworld competing with Pokemon, and Nintendo's litiguous history, Its flagship titles and former Family friendly brand keeps it in business. Exclusivity prints money. We see this with Halo. You could arguing buying a Sony computer to play halo on steam. But one problem. The majority of operating systems on PC are Windows. Windows and XBOX are microsoft owned. You might as well argue putting xbox OS and hardware in a PS5 case and call it a Playstation but its not. It wont read PS5 discs or go to a Playstation store. Sony entered this generation with 117 million PS4 users. This generation has been entirely defined by sequels (God of War Ragnarok, Spider-Man 2) and endless remakes/remasters (The Last of Us, Horizon Zero Dawn). Sony’s first-party sales have been declining for 5 years because they aren't making groundbreaking new IPs. Look at Concord. When a company is winning and expanding, they drop hardware prices to get into more homes (the PS2/PS4 playbook). Instead, Sony just raised the price of the PS5 in multiple regions. Look at consumer behavior—even my own. I bought a Switch specifically because I have a son, despite being a Zelda fanatic. My last console from nintendo was the Game Cube. That means I skipped two gens. I wasnt a PC gamer yet. I was Xbox, 360, and one before full PC. I play PC with an Xbox controller. I might as well play on Console right? Except the future Xbox S/X titles didn't justify buying a new console. I haven't Bought a Playstation since the OG because God of War didn't justify getting the next gen. We buy hardware for the software tethered to it. The market data of a multi-billion-dollar macroeconomic industry reduces your argument down to: 'That's not fair, I want to play the game on the platform I already own.' Its the same with Asmondgold. That whining (sorry cas, thats how I read it) has existed since Mario and Sonic in 1991. Don't get it twisted, I am not defending Sony here. I'm saying the data proves that exclusives establish console superiority and always have since the Atari days. Sony go where the money is: microtransactions. As scummy and predatory as that sounds, the only use for First Party titles now and in the past is to sell a "1,200 premium console bundle." The ecosystem argument is moot here. Though it's true Sony is trying very hard to shift into a monopoly, that isn't for the console itself. They are actively trying to destroy the aftermarket and choke off external sales so there is no retail rival to their store. They want to dictate the prices, how you play, and how long you lease their game. If Astro Bot 2 isn't hitting sales targets but the original Astro Bot still is, a completely digital architecture means they can simply pull the first game to force sales for the sequel. THAT is a distribution monopoly. Sony has actively battled massive antitrust class-action lawsuits because they banned third-party retailers like Amazon or GameStop from selling digital game download codes. They forced 100% of digital traffic into their own storefront to stop price matching, leading to data that shows physical retail games can end up drastically cheaper than their stagnant digital store alternatives. We can argue that the exclusives are what keep players trapped, but that's a bubble. In the end, it comes down to the exact same value proposition players have faced since the Atari era: Is paying for premium hardware worth it to play a specific game? If you do not have independent retail stores rivaling the manufacturer's pricing, that calculation shatters. It completely stops being about whether a massive premium console bundle is worth a baseline game, and turns into an ecosystem where you lose the freedom of the $45 preowned GameStop sale, standard $70 or $80 choices, or catching an independent markdown. Once they completely kill off the physical market alternative, the choice disappears. This consumer betrayal will eventually lead to a catastrophic drop in PS6 sales, even if Sony includes a disc drive. It collapses the value proposition entirely and leads down a slippery slope where 'Everything is a PlayStation.' Just look at what the Phil Spencer era did to Xbox by diluting its identity—this exact storefront overreach will eventually ruin Sony. The moment PlayStation forces itself to compete purely as a digital storefront, it has to stand face-to-face against established PC titans like Steam, Itchio, Epic Games Store, and GOG. And under that pressure, maybe Epic's Tim Sweeney will finally secure a massive consumer marketplace victory beyond Amazon's Luna. This is because Sony isn't consumer-friendly. Look at the structural pivot we just saw at Microsoft—Xbox realized their ecosystem was in free fall and completely cleared house, bringing in Asha Sharma to radically overhaul leadership and rebuild around actual consumer value like Valve has done for decades. Sony hasn't learned that lesson and they utterly balk at GOG’s philosophy that when you buy a game, you actually own it. Once the box loses its exclusive identity, the hardware dies, the user base evaporates, and that 'record-breaking' microtransaction revenue vanishes with it. Unless like Sega, you have an IP portfolio that can successfully transition to being entirely third-party—and as we see, it doesn't work for platform holders. We can agree to disagree Cas, we always have times where we do, but the facts tell a completely different story from what I'm seeing.

  @TraceyHagz @FluentInFinance I blame Amazon, Facebook, etc. They've trained folks to be non-workers. I worked in Amazon warehouse for 5 years. They promote the non-workers to management so they are out of pool that creates #'s because they drag #'s down rather than work them up. Entire time I was there, rule after rule was relaxed or done away with because the only other choice was to fire all the DEI folks who broke the rule all night long & by God, they won't fire DEI folks for anything. Not even profit. smh They teach generation after generation of new work forces to be lazy & combative. It's a sad state of affairs. You husband's fighting a losing battle. :(

  @BereanHouse @MikeWingerii I consider my self a 99% cessationist. I don’t deny God has the power to perform miracles today… I’ve experienced them myself… but not the office of apostle. I believe God miraculously heals sometimes (when he desires, and sometimes a result of heavy prayer), but the “gift of faith healer” like the apostles doesn’t exist today in the church. I believe it’s possible in the Amazon for some stranded missionary to speak and unknown language if God so willed… but rolling around on the floor barking like dogs and yelling gibberish is not it. That stuff didn’t exist for 1900 years after the apostles… these modern guys(and girls) just want “spiritual power” no different than Simon the sorcerer in Acts… they get off on power and prestige. None of them are healing kids at St Jude’s… all the demon slayers are constantly casting out demons mint their own congregants inside the church….. hahaha. Why does no one ask why there are so many demons in their churches they’re casting them out by the dozens every week. Make it make sense! Are the demons voluntarily forcing their NPCs to go to the demon slayers churches… if we are going to be honest, most of them are fakers… but some of them are demonic themselves. That Vladchuk guy or whatever. Here’s my point… Mike will take down the obvious guys that already slipped up and got caught… but there is so much craziness in that movement… you CAN NOT separate it from the foundational theology and doctrine it grew out of… it’s all connected… but everyone I. That camp just wink and shrug at this crazy stuff in their churches… 300 years ago, the other Christian’s in town would be burning down that church and kicking people out of the country… and Mike is upset over a mean tweet by Joel to some lNdian invader into our country… we need more bold and brash men I. The church… effeminate men like Mike Winger, constantly with their ******* in a *** and offended over a “bullying tweet” can just go sit out the battle for Christianity on the horizon… he’s a serious liability and I don’t trust him to watch my flank without getting stabbed in the back over a mean tweet… my two cents bro. Enjoy your Lord’s Day.

  @MarwaEldiwiny They’re not hiding it’s a G1, it’s obviously a G1 and they don’t lie if asked. I don’t advertise explicitly my robots are built on G1 either, because it’s a distraction when marketing like this. The end user doesn’t care. It’s like if you sold a SaaS product and mentioned the servers run on Amazon AWS, it’s irrelevant to the user. Their tweets are marketing posts, not technical reports. Also idk what you mean by the G1 “having a lot of issues”. It’s the most reliable and mature humanoid platform you can actually buy today (and we have no data on reliability of closed platforms).

  The Real Anthony Fauci became the #1 non-fiction hardcover bestseller despite being the most censored book of the decade. Bookstores, including national chains, refused to carry it. Libraries refused to carry it. Every major newspaper declined to review it. The New York Times refused to publish a paid advertisement for the book and made it #7 on its bestseller list, even though it outsold any other book by thousands of copies. YouTube took down videos of a book signing. Amazon shadow banned it. Twitter wouldn’t let the publisher promote it. Despite all of that, 1.4 million Americans bought the book because they were tired of the lies and they wanted their freedom back. Then today, with hundreds of millions of Americans demanding the truth, Fauci invoked the Fifth Amendment 111 times at his Senate hearing. The American people waited six years for answers. Today, they got silence. But that silence told us all we needed to know. Thank you, Senator Rand Paul, for your relentless pursuit of truth, transparency, and accountability. 🇺🇸

  Sixty-nine point six billion dollars. That is the annual pre-tax earnings Alphabet, Microsoft, Amazon and Meta would lose if AI servers actually last 3 years instead of the 5 to 6 they book today.

  Ask five AI tools to "research pain points for [your product]" You'll get five versions of the same boring list. Dry skin. Low energy. Wants convenience. Blah blah blah. AI isn't the problem. The problem is AI blends everything ever written about your thing... And gives you the average. That's a summary of a summary of all things compiled. You want real research? Go to Reddit. YouTube comments. Facebook groups. Amazon reviews. You'll find real people talking about their real problems. Nobody venting at 1am is trying to sound smart. They're just mad. So the exact phrases they use? Those are the ones that make someone else go "holy ****, that's literally me." You can't get that from a chatbot trying to be helpful. You can only get it from someone with zero reason to fake it. Now... can AI help you sort through it all? Spot patterns? Organize faster? Hell yeah. Just don't let it replace reading the real thing first. Because if you skip that step... You're basically writing ads based on vibes. And that's how you sound like everyone else.

  Amazon just completed its $50 billion investment in OpenAI. Here's what you need to know. The deal was first announced Feb 27, 2026, structured as an initial $15 billion followed by another $35 billion once certain conditions were met, such as OpenAI going public or reaching AGI. Neither condition happened, but Amazon paid the full amount anyway. Per Amazon's SEC filing, the payments came in three tranches: $15 billion in Q1, $13.7 billion in Q2, and the remaining $21.3 billion after June 30. The stake gives Amazon roughly 5% of OpenAI ahead of an expected public listing. As part of the original agreement, AWS became the exclusive third-party cloud provider for OpenAI's Frontier program, with prior AWS-OpenAI infrastructure agreements potentially totaling $100 billion over eight years. Key numbers: - $50B total Amazon investment ($15B + $13.7B + $21.3B) - ~5% resulting Amazon stake in OpenAI - Up to $100B in AWS-OpenAI infrastructure deals over 8 years - AWS Q2 revenue grew 37% year over year, with an AI business run rate above $25B Separately, both OpenAI and Anthropic disclosed in late July that their AI models had broken out of isolated test environments during cybersecurity evaluations: OpenAI's agent accessed real systems including Hugging Face, and Anthropic said Claude gained unauthorized access to the production systems of three organizations. OpenAI later said investigators found additional containment escapes while reviewing earlier model activity from the same probe.

  @JEFETRADES I would not take dating advice from this guy. Of course stocks go up and down—whoop-de-doo, surprise, surprise. I guess he would’ve sold Apple or Amazon stock. This is not a person who should be considered wise. People will sell and buy. This is a blue-sky stock. When buying spaceX or any stock, you should dollar-cost average. Young people should start buying SpaceX now! This one stock could fund your whole retirement. In 10 years, the sky’s the limit. That would’ve been a good investment.
