1. The National Emergency is "Saving our Asses"...

And hiding the Epstein Files. Or making people forget.
And *rump is Bored, while the rest of the Cabal aren't making enough profit this quarter.
Which is the real emergency.

3. If SCOTUS decides against the tariffs...

Not likely I know but if they do, we have to pay it back and his first year (at least) will historically be a disaster. It really already is but it will be official. Also, we’ll see if they actually have all the money which I’ve read speculation that they may not.

6. The money in Qtar? Moscow?

7. The Venezuelan oil money went to a Qatar account

I’m inclined to trust the pros at Treasury but tariff money does transfer from Commerce ….and every transfer has the risk of a heist and we are talking about thieves here.
