Vance in Rome: God, #tarrifs, and Ukraine: US Vice President #JDVance, a Catholic convert, spent #Easter weekend in Rome, meeting with Giorgia #Meloni and Cardinal Pietro Parolin, the #Vatican’s second-highest official. https://www.euractiv.com/section/politics/news/vance-in-rome-god-tarrifs-and-ukraine/?utm_source=mastodon&utm_medium=dlvr.it
245% tarriff on China.
At what point do you just say, we are cutting all trade with China?

#Trump #tarrifs forcing #Pakistan to divert hard earned cash reserves to the american regime.
Naked attempt to pause Pak's exemplary #EnergyTransition, and force us to buy American oil in a deal to have the tarrifs removed.
Why couldn't they offer us solar panels instead? Oh wait.
We have a huge American hangover. Its past time we tried "balancing" between the US and China and rework our policies to reflect a multipolar world.
Good. It's the only response that might get a bully to back down.
Although Trump's behaviour is getting so irrational, who knows how he and his poor bruised wee ego will respond to this?
China has suspended exports of a wide range of critical minerals and magnets, threatening to choke off supplies of components central to automakers, aerospace manufacturers, semiconductor companies and military contractors around the world. #Tarrifs #FAFO https://www.nytimes.com/2025/04/13/business/china-rare-earths-exports.html?unlocked_article_code=1._U4.bCos.s1Yqa6DgAIqv&smid=nytcore-android-share
Trump's #TradeWar With #China Is Now Hurting #Hollywood —and US #SoftPower
On Thursday, #Chinese officials retaliated against President Donald Trump’s tariffs by imposing new restrictions on US movies. That’s a big blow to America’s cultural cachet in the nation.

Die Oligarchen Tech Bros von #Trump haben wohl angerufen und sich beschwert. 
"Imagine trying to manage a supply chain right now.
Every 48 hours, the WH is announcing, or un-announcing, or re-announcing, or creating massive carve outs to, a new trade rule.
Why would anyone anywhere build a new factory under these conditions?"

Trump’s admin exempted smartphones, computers & other electronics from its so-called reciprocal tariffs in win for Apple (& shoppers). This lowers the CN tariff from 125%.
@GeriAQuin This appears to be fake. Numerous people have gone to Fabletics and placed orders and are not seeing this. Case in point:

I tested it myself, without finalizing the order, and saw no such line.

¿Revisan ustedes el país de origen de los productos del supermercado y toman eso en cuenta para comprar?
Large USA companies most affected by Trump's trade war is iPhone and Tesla because these companies have integrated their businesses with China (
Tesla tarrifs). Trump would like these companies to move their manufacturing to USA, but this will take time and money.
I'm not aware of any Chinese companies that are affected to the same extent. China has even used tarrifs as an opportunity to propose closer ties with Europe.
Who will be more affected by Trump's tariff war in the long term? #tarrifs
@GottaLaff Here in France #tarrifs are called "les surtaxes". Literally translated it means the tax you pay on top of the value of an imported item, so don't let any Orange Felon tell you it's not a tax! #TrumpTax
Even the US population acts more and more like the Russians, as Vlad Vexler explains here.
They're basically hoping Trump will come to his senses or his oligarchs will convince him.
That will not be enough. The rules based system is already broken. Hoping that the midterm election in 2 years will slow Trump down is too slow to reverse the coup.
Can we now charge the Big Orange Turd with manipulating markets?
