Note Canada and Europe don’t retaliate against US tariffs on steel/alum by putting tariffs on similar products of US. Instead they attack MAGA supporters’ faves, Harleys and Jack Daniels. He’s against their trade policies. They’re against our President.

Great word noticed while reading of UK’s movement towards discipline of apparatchiks ruling NIH: “Quangos”: quasi-autonomous non-governmental organisations.
Ridding US of quangos is center of PresTrump’s discipline
A man spills hot coffee in his lap and his peers award him $50,000,000. No fan of Starbucks, but such perversion of justice by citizens of our nation is corrupting the soul of our nation. Judicial reform is desperately needed. https://www.cnn.com/2025/03/14/business/starbucks-hot-coffee-driver-verdict
Years ago I watched a documentary about the infamous case of the woman who had coffee spilled in her at a McDonalds drive-thru referenced in the article. I was dismissive of it until seeing her burns (she was an elderly woman, hearing about medical bills, and subsequent lawyer fees. The dollar amount here does seem way too high, but then again “nerve damage to genitals” …ouch. Sounds like expensive long term treatments.
Just my two cents

Should add, our litigation is abt God—not man. Our victim-takes-all culture demands God pay for every bit of suffering, but we can’t sue God. So we wring our insane demands out of fellow citizens aided by Ken Nunn & fellow injury attorney$.
At heart it’s our rebellion agnst God.
Get a grip, Matt. Give the man 1 mil or two, or even 3; but don’t express the slightest sympathy for this award. And if you feel sympathy, let your red-headed wife talk some fiery sense into you. Love,

My red-headed wife found this article about the case:
Starbucks had initially offered $3 million to Garcia pre-trial, later upping that amount to $30 million to settle. Garcia agreed, but under the condition that they apologize, change their policies and issue a memo to all store locations to double-check their hot drinks before handing them to customers, attorneys said.
When they declined to agree to those terms, the jury eventually decided to award Garcia with Friday’s total.
I agree with you, juries should be careful with how much they award in these types of cases. Greed is all over this thing on both sides (well maybe not in Starbucks’s side…). The negotiations between the fellow and Starbucks are unfortunate. I’d love to have been a fly on the wall for this case. Starbucks probably could have come out paying way less, and the fellow may have gotten them to apply some new policies had they been able to work things out. But I’m no lawyer.
Also, my wife worked for Starbucks for years and said cup/lid issues are common…
Much love to you, Pr Bayly
We all know cup issues are common. We’ve all been burned, and usually b/c of our own failures, but many have been burned by stores failures, also. This I have observed for five decades, now.
Lawsuits and awards are out of control, and we all know that. This is a perfect example. Wrongful death isn’t worth $50 mil, let along wrongful privates.
Concerning Starbucks, businesses always settle, but that’s controlled by their insurance agency’s department of litigation. It’s an entirely pragmatic decision based upon what the insurance company calculates will be the ridiculous amount ridiculous juries are likely to award. And we non-punitive, non-greedy citizens foot the bill. Love,

My cup issue is that I work very very hard to keep the outside of the cup clean, all the while the inside of the cup contains scalding lava hot liquid causing genital nerve damage. (said in Norm Macdonald’s voice)
