“The US will…stop issuing work visas for commercial truck drivers, Secretary of State Marco Rubio said on Thursday.”

The prices of everything will go up.

Ain’t no inflation like maga inflation ‘cause maga inflation don’t stop.

In these turbulent times, we need predictability so our companies can plan and invest.

With the EU-US deal, we're securing access to our largest export market.

@EUCommission Absolute rubbish. You've given in to a bully. A fascist bully. This is an embarrassment for everyone in the EU.

What's more, this "deal" doesn't even help most businesses. For example, my own small business (https://www.dutchbikebits.com) has already lost pretty much all sales to the US because of the uncertainty and extra costs created by Trump and those problems will still remain even after this supposed deal.

The EU has made a *huge* mistake.

Remember when the stock market was nearly 6000 points higher under Joe Biden and Kamala Harris and your 401Ks were rosy with cash again after Trump left office?

And how the incompetence of Donald Trump after his return to office flipped the markets and your 401Ks back into losers in only 3 short months?

Good times; good times.

Moments after #Trump’s #tariffs kicked in, #China’s Ministry of #Finance said that it was imposing tariffs of as much as 15 % on a wide range of #food imports from the #UnitedStates.

The finance ministry imposed 15% tariffs on imports of chicken, wheat, corn & cotton from the US & 10% tariffs on imports of “sorghum, soybeans, pork, beef, aquatic products, fruits, vegetables, & dairy products.”

#Trump’s #tariffs target countries that are major suppliers of a wide range of goods to the #UnitedStates.

For American families, the likely result is higher #prices nearly everywhere they turn — in grocery aisles, at car dealerships, at electronics stores & at the pump.

…by altering the terms of #trade between the #UnitedStates & its largest economic partners, the #tariffs will probably rattle #SupplyChains, strain some of the country’s most important diplomatic relationships & add significant #costs for American #consumers & manufacturers.

#Canada, #Mexico & #China are the 3 largest trading partners of the US, accounting for >40% of both US imports & exports last year.

Sweeping #tariffs on imports from #Canada, #Mexico & #China went into effect just after midnight Tues, raising #US tariffs to levels not seen in decades & rattling foreign govts & businesses that depend on international #trade.

As of 12:01AM Tues, the #Trump admin added a 25% tariff on all imports from Canada & Mexico. The admin also added another 10% tariff on all imports from China. That comes on top of a 10% tariff on Chinese goods put into effect just one month ago….
