News at 7PM: The US Senate's finance committee debates tariffs as tensions with #China intensify, with Beijing promising retaliation against American warnings. President #Trump considers a further 50% tariff. US stocks rally following a downturn. Overseas, #Ukraine's President Zelensky announces the detention of two Chinese troops. In the #UK, Prince Harry legally contests his reduced #security provision, as the King and Queen proceed with their Italian tour. #BBC #News

Tariffs on #China set to rise to at least 104% on Wednesday, White House says https://www.cnn.com/2025/04/08/business/trump-china-tariff?utm_source=cnn_Breaking+News&utm_medium=email&bt_ee=ex26yDt40NKW%2BNfeVWCUL3V9U33L3PUOv33ABWSuxsAxYgcs87ARnlbkvk2w8VT5&bt_ts=1744134731297 #Trump

#Trump will host #ElSalvador’s president, Nayib #Bukele, on April 14, WH propagandist Karoline Leavitt said. Bukele, who refers to himself as the “coolest dictator,” has become a crucial ally of Trump, taking in deportees of ANY nationality for him for a fee & housing them in #CECOT a prison known for its #HumanRights violations.

Gee, if he’s coming, maybe he could bring back some of the prisoners *deported* illegally by Trump.

Just goes to show how much of the Stock Market is Wishful Thinking, it was rising all morning until the White House held a press conference and confimed the Mad King is not backing down

"Late Monday night, the Supreme Court issued two rulings that together connote such gratuitous cruelty that it is difficult to comprehend what could be going on in the minds of the far-right justices in the majority"

The #US will impose a 104% #tariff on #China from 12:01am ET (12:01pm China Standard Time) on Wednesday, a White House official said after Beijing did not lift its retaliatory tariffs on US goods by a noon Tuesday deadline set by #Trump.

But here’s the thing, Trump doesn’t really care about the other 70 countries that are supposedly reaching out to him personally (they are just notches on his bedpost).

China is the only one that really matters and the Chinese know this.

"A group who took part in the major "Hands Off" protests against Pres #Trump have organized another day of action.

The 50501 group is promoting nationwide protests in all 50 US states on the same day against the Trump admin on Apr 19.

The group stated: they want 3.5% of the US pop, >11M people—to participate. They cite this figure as the threshold for "sustained resistance in order to make a difference."

Usually the experts are all condescending & snobby & tell you why another #recession will never happen. Now they're telling you to prepare for one.

Springer versus United States , 102 US 586 (1881), war ein Fall, in dem der Oberste Gerichtshof die Einkommensteuer bestätigte , die mit dem Revenue Act von 1864 eingeführt wurde. #Trump, unsere tägliche Lüge

Democrats spent over a year telling us that #inflation wasn't a real issue & that it was all in our heads. They told us the economy's "great" & even condescendingly called it a "vibecession". That's just one of the many reasons why Democrats lost.
