Trump is threatening to jack up tariffs on China by an additional 50% unless Beijing abandons its retaliatory duties on U.S. imports.

Trump in a Truth Social post gave China until Tuesday to undo its 34% tariffs, imposed in response to the “reciprocal” duties unveiled at the White House last week.

Trump also wrote that he will cancel all planned talks with China if they do not comply with his demand.

          the CIA fostering the Hungarian uprising was literally proven to be true in the JFK releases from the other week. lol

          try paying attention; i know that’s a tall order for a liberal, but i’m sure you can do it if you apply yourself.

            Aaaand there we go, the classic tankie “ur a lib” line.

            The CIA having any hand in a general uprising against a Stalinist terror is irrelevant considering the number of forced disappearances that were taking place, political opression and the supression of genuine workers unions by the Rakosi & Gero regime.

            Stalin and his ilk are burning in hell right alongside Hitler and Kissinger.
