On Friday, a group of small businesses challenged the Trump administration’s “latest wave of tariffs on 60 U.S. trade partners, less than one day after they were enacted,” according to NBC News. “The suit was filed by the Liberty Justice Center, the same organization that challenged Trump’s...

Following 13 successive nights of intensifying bombing that provoked Tehran to fire on U.S. bases in response, Trump halted the campaign over the weekend. Iran said it would suspend its own attacks for as long as the U.S. pause endures. The end of the U.S. bombing campaign sent oil prices...

The US military did not announce fresh strikes on Iran on Saturday, having carried out 13 consecutive nights of attacks on the country. During this time, Iran has also launched drone strikes on US military facilities and bases across the Middle East. The latest direct escalation between the...

I haven’t had a chance to watch anything on this, but I’ve been hearing about it and it sounds like….well…was Trumps speech really over an hour long?

We’re the tail on the dog. Best (just my opinion) to point out to our trade partners (like the Governors or heads of business in the 36/50 so 72% of US states where their largest trade partner is Canada) that Trumps trade tactics are punishing them as much or more than it’s punishing Canada. Let...

Donald Trump's latest 50 per cent tariffs against Canada would likely be shot down in any court challenge, trade law experts say, so he will have to throw more shit at the wall to see what’s gonna stick at least temporarily, etc… Even though he's theoretically on firmer legal ground than he was...

Shipping insurance costs through the southern Red Sea doubled for some companies on Thursday, sources said. Is that a Fibonacci curve? Anyway, half of the 18 ships exiting Bab el-Mandeb on Thursday were carrying crude oil, including two Chinese supertankers. The number of tankers crossing...

On that note, the trial of ousted (by Trumps decree) Venezuelan president Nicolás Maduro and his wife, Cilia Flores, is scheduled to begin on 1 June 2027, a New York judge ordered on Wednesday. That would be 500+ days in an American prison before they can face an American Judge for an American...

Huh…well, this wasn’t unexpected, but on top of the existing American tariffs, including the new ones from earlier this week in Canada, it’s timing is…interesting. The Trump administration said Thursday it is hitting dozens of countries, including Canada, with tariffs citing forced labour in...

Quite a while back I might’ve actually watched that speech that these screenshots are from without it actually being about what you think it’s about, but I could be wrong. I think he was talking about uranium enrichment in that last picture, & I recognize that Wall from the United Nations...

They already signed it yesterday, before Trump changed the rules today because he’s a man of his word.😉.

Saudi Arabia would need to normalize relations with Israel to receive the U.S. nuclear technology it has long sought, President Donald Trump said Thursday, adding a new and potentially deal-ending stipulation to an agreement signed just a day earlier. If the Saudis “don’t join the Abraham...
