‘Iphones Sold In U.S…’ Trump THREATENS 25% Tariff On Apple If Iphones Are Not Made In U.S | Shocking [Video]

‘Iphones Sold In U.S…’ Trump THREATENS 25% Tariff On Apple If Iphones Are Not Made In U.S | Shocking

President Donald Trump has threatened Apple with a 25% tariff if it continues manufacturing iPhones outside the US. In a post on Truth Social, Trump warned CEO Tim Cook that iPhones sold in America must be built domestically—not in India or elsewhere. The warning follows Cook’s recent statement that most iPhones in the US will soon originate from India. Although finished smartphones currently enjoy tariff exemptions, Trump’s aggressive trade policies may disrupt Apple’s global supply chains and cost the company nearly $900 million this quarter alone. #TrumpTariffs #AppleIndia #iPhoneManufacturing #AppleTariff #TimCook #TruthSocial #TrumpVsApple #MakeInUSA #TechNews #USIndiaTrade #TariffThreat #iPhoneTariff #AppleProduction #TechPolitics #GlobalTrade #TradeWar #USChinaTensions #AppleUSA #TariffImpact #ManufacturingShift Also Read Who Stands To Lose If Apple Moves iPhone Manufacturing Unit From India To US & How Much Will iPhone Cost Then? :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/who-stands-to-lose-if-apple-moves-iphone-manufacturing-from-india-to-us-how-much-will-iphone-cost-4155861.html?ref=DMDesc Donald Trump Urges Apple CEO Not To Manufacture In India: 'Tim, We Are Treating You Really Good' :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/donald-trump-urges-apple-ceo-not-to-manufacture-in-india-tim-we-are-treating-you-really-good-4154037.html?ref=DMDesc How Apple Boosted Production To Export 600 Tons Of iPhones From Chennai To US To Beat Trump’s Tariffs :: https://www.oneindia.com/chennai/how-apple-boosted-production-to-export-600-tons-of-iphones-from-chennai-to-us-to-beat-trump-s-tariff-4120181.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.410~ED.194~GR.124~

"Horrible Man"-Trump Blasts Court as Abrego Garcia Returns, Faces Charges After Deportation Cover-Up

Kilmar Abrego Garcia, the Salvadoran national at the center of a high-stakes immigration scandal, is back in the U.S. to face federal charges. After his "mistaken" deportation under the Trump administration, Garcia's return was forced by a Supreme Court order, triggering political shockwaves. Trump calls him a "horrible man" and defends his immigration hardline, while critics accuse the administration of lawless stonewalling and civil rights violations.

Trump SLAMS ICC, Slaps Sanctions on Judges for Pursuing ‘WAR CRIMES’ Case Against Israeli Troops

U.S. President Donald Trump has sanctioned four International Criminal Court (ICC) judges for pursuing war crimes investigations against American and Israeli troops over actions in Gaza and Afghanistan. Secretary of State Marco Rubio condemned the ICC’s actions as illegitimate and a threat to U.S. sovereignty. Netanyahu praised the move, calling the ICC charges political. The ICC, EU, and UN strongly opposed the sanctions, warning they undermine global justice and shield war criminals from accountability. #TrumpSanctions #ICC #WarCrimes #GazaWar #Afghanistan #MarcoRubio #IsraelSupport #GlobalJustice #Netanyahu #InternationalLaw #ICCSanctions #USForeignPolicy #UN #EUResponse #PoliticalJustice #AmericaFirst #Sovereignty #HumanRights #MiddleEastCrisis #GlobalAccountability #BreakingNews #SanctionedJudges #WorldCourtCrisis #JusticeUnderAttack #WarCrimesInvestigation Also Read Trump vs Musk: Billionaire Battle Turns Ugly With Epstein Taunt, SpaceX Heat :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-vs-musk-billionaire-battle-turns-ugly-with-epstein-taunt-spacex-heat-4173783.html?ref=DMDesc Trump Announces Travel Ban Affecting 12 Countries, Set To Go Into Effect Monday :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-announces-travel-ban-affecting-12-countries-set-to-go-into-effect-monday-4172715.html?ref=DMDesc Trump Doubles Steel, Aluminium Tariffs To 50%, Excludes UK: "Vital For America's 'National Security'" :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-doubles-steel-aluminium-tariffs-to-50-excludes-uk-vital-for-americas-national-security-4171703.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.318~GR.125~ED.102~

“The Best Time To Strike Ukraine…” Putin’s Reaction To Trump-Musk Fall-Out Shocks World | Russia-U.S [Video]

“The Best Time To Strike Ukraine…” Putin’s Reaction To Trump-Musk Fall-Out Shocks World | Russia-U.S

As the Trump–Musk feud dominates global headlines, Moscow is watching with popcorn in hand. Russian leaders, from ex-presidents to space chiefs, are trolling both men with job offers, sarcastic peace talks, and tech freedom promises. Elon Musk was invited to move his ventures to Russia, while Trump’s drama was dismissed as typical American chaos. Kremlin figures say the distraction benefits Russia, with one nationalist even calling it “the best time to strike Ukraine.” This bizarre turn of geopolitics is half mockery, half opportunity—for Russia, it’s a win either way. #ElonMusk #Trump #TrumpVsMusk #Russia #Kremlin #Starlink #Putin #Medvedev #Rogozin #Dmitriev #MargaritaSimonyan #TrumpFeud #USPolitics #RussiaReaction #MuskRussia #SpaceX #USRussiaTensions #TrumpMuskClash #UkraineWar #Geopolitics Also Read Trump vs Musk: Billionaire Battle Turns Ugly With Epstein Taunt, SpaceX Heat :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-vs-musk-billionaire-battle-turns-ugly-with-epstein-taunt-spacex-heat-4173783.html?ref=DMDesc Trump Proposes Allowing Ukraine and Russia to Fight Before Seeking Peace :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-ukraine-russia-fight-for-a-while-011-4173761.html?ref=DMDesc Trump Announces Travel Ban Affecting 12 Countries, Set To Go Into Effect Monday :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-announces-travel-ban-affecting-12-countries-set-to-go-into-effect-monday-4172715.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.318~ED.346~GR.125~
