Trump’s FLIP-FLOP Game Exposed! Denies ‘100%’ Penalty On India | India-Russia SLAMS Trump | Details [Video]

Trump’s FLIP-FLOP Game Exposed! Denies ‘100%’ Penalty On India | India-Russia SLAMS Trump | Details

In a fiery press conference, US President Donald Trump denied ever specifying a 100% tariff on countries importing oil from Russia — just days after threatening India for being Moscow’s top energy buyer. “I never said a percentage,” Trump claimed, as pressure mounts from New Delhi over alleged Western hypocrisy. India, now facing 25% tariffs, responded by spotlighting America’s own billion-dollar trade with Russia — including uranium and fertilisers. Trump's wavering comments come amid backlash from allies and Republicans alike. Meanwhile, India and Russia have reaffirmed their strategic defence ties. Trump now says further penalties will be decided after talks with Russian officials. As India's energy imports top $50B, New Delhi defends its sovereign trade decisions — exposing what it calls Western “double standards.” Is Trump walking back under pressure, or is this just the calm before another tariff storm? #TrumpNews #IndiaRussia #TariffThreat #USIndiaTensions #RussianOil #TrumpPressConference #TradeWar #Geopolitics #IndoUSRelations #ModiTrump #USRussiaTrade #EnergyCrisis #GlobalTrade #IndiaFightsBack #BreakingNews #TrumpUpdate #IndiaStrategic #OilPolitics #BidenVsTrump #NuclearTrade ~ED.346~HT.408~GR.122~

Nikki Haley SLAMS Trump tariff threat to India over Russia| ‘Don't burn ties & give China free pass'

Nikki Haley has sharply criticized Donald Trump’s proposed tariffs on Indian goods over New Delhi’s Russian oil purchases, calling the move "strategically dangerous." In a viral post on ‘X’, the former UN Ambassador warned Trump not to “burn a relationship with a strong ally like India” while giving China a tariff pause. Haley emphasized the importance of U.S.-India ties amid rising Chinese influence in the Indo-Pacific, exposing deep divisions within the GOP on trade and foreign policy strategy. #NikkiHaley #TrumpTariffs #IndiaUSRelations #RussiaOil #ChinaPolicy #GOPDivide #HaleyVsTrump #StrategicAlliance #IndoPacific #EnergySecurity #TrumpVsIndia #ForeignPolicy #TariffThreat #GlobalTrade #USIndiaTies #HaleySpeaksOut #WhiteHouse #BreakingNews #Geopolitics #EconomicSanctions #TradeWar #HaleyOnTrump #ChinaInfluence #TariffPolitics #AmericaFirst #RussiaTies #TrumpBacklash #XPost #IndiaTrade #HaleyWarning Also Read Trump-Modi, Negotiate Like Real Friends: Singer Mary Millben's Advice To India-US Amid Tariff Threat :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-modi-negotiate-like-real-friends-singer-mary-millbens-advice-to-india-us-amid-tariff-threat-7821507.html?ref=DMDesc Don't Know Anything About It: Trump On India's Claims On US Buying Russian Chemicals, Fertilizers :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/dont-know-anything-about-it-trump-on-indias-claims-on-us-buying-russian-chemicals-fertilizers-7821499.html?ref=DMDesc Kremlin Hits Out At US Prez Trump For Threatening India For Buying Russian Oil :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/kremlin-hits-out-at-us-prez-trump-for-threatening-india-for-buying-russian-oil-7821423.html?ref=DMDesc

Breaking: Trump Breaks Silence On MAGA Succession | Names MAGA Heir For 2028 Elections

Donald Trump has strongly hinted that Vice President J.D. Vance may be the chosen heir to the MAGA movement. At a White House event on Tuesday, Trump said Vance was “most likely” to carry the MAGA torch forward, adding, “In all fairness, he’s the Vice President.” Trump also floated the idea of Secretary of State Marco Rubio teaming up with Vance in the future, though he stopped short of making a 2028 endorsement. It’s the clearest signal yet that Trump sees Vance as a future GOP frontrunner. Trump’s remarks come amid swirling speculation about his own political future—just hours after he told CNBC he would “probably not” run again. Despite the constitutional ban, he continues to tease a third term. Trump’s carefully calculated comments are fueling a storm of speculation over succession, power plays, and the long-term leadership of the Republican Party and MAGA base. #Trump2028 #JDVanceMAGA #Vance2028 #TrumpSuccessor #MarcoRubio #MAGAHeir #GOPLeadership #TrumpThirdTerm #RepublicanNominee2028 #TrumpVance #USPolitics #TrumpWhiteHouseEvent #TrumpRubioTicket #KristiNoem #PamBondi #2028PresidentialRace #GOP2028 #TrumpCNBCInterview #TrumpNews #MAGA2028 ~HT.318~

As the 2026 Senate elections approach, both Republicans and Democrats are gearing up for a high-stakes battle.

Democrats are strategizing to flip seats across the South and Midwest, while Trump faces internal GOP rifts and divisive primaries. The outcome could define everything from legislation to Supreme Court picks. The fight for Congress is already underway—and it’s anything but certain. #Senate2026 #Trump #USPolitics #CongressBattle #Midterms #GOP #Democrats #TrumpAgenda #RedVsBlue #SenateMajority #KeyRaces #ElectionWatch #PoliticalPower #DividedGOP #DemocratStrategy #USMidterms #RepublicanPrimary #TrumpAllies #SenateControl #FlipTheSenate #CampaignTrail #BipartisanBattle #VoterPower #Election2026 #TrumpVsGOP #Harris2026 #SouthernVotes #MidwestPolitics #GOPStrategy #DemocratsPushBack ~HT.178~GR.122~ED.194~

Texas Redistricting WAR: Democrats Flee State to Block Republican's GOP Map |Abbott’s Vote Collapses

A dramatic showdown erupts in Texas as 51 Democratic lawmakers flee the state, heading to Illinois to block a Republican redistricting map backed by former President Donald Trump. The GOP-drafted map would add five Republican-leaning seats to the U.S. House, but Democrats say it's a blatant power grab that silences millions of voters. Without the two-thirds quorum needed to proceed, Governor Greg Abbott’s special session is now in chaos. As the redistricting war intensifies, Democrats call this political exile a fight for democracy, while Republicans label it cowardice. Will the runaway lawmakers succeed—or be hunted down, fined, or even removed from office? #TexasPolitics #RedistrictingCrisis #RunawayDems #TrumpBackedMap #GregAbbott #GOPPowerGrab #TexasDemocrats #Illinois #Election2026 #BreakingNews #PoliticalShowdown #USHouse #VotingRights #TrumpNews #AbbottVsDems

Trump’s BIGGEST ‘Betrayal’ To Americans? GOP Ally Slams Ukraine War Funding As Backstab To Voters [Video]

Trump’s BIGGEST ‘Betrayal’ To Americans? GOP Ally Slams Ukraine War Funding As Backstab To Voters

Outspoken Republican lawmaker Marjorie Taylor Greene has condemned U.S. funding for the Ukraine war, calling it a “complete betrayal” of American taxpayers. Referring to Trump’s 2024 victory, Greene argued that voters had rejected foreign wars, yet Washington continues to finance conflicts in Ukraine and Gaza. She accused Democrats—and some neocon Republicans—of pushing an “America LAST” agenda while warning that such policies will alienate younger voters permanently. Greene even called Israel’s Gaza offensive a “genocide,” highlighting deep fractures within Trump’s GOP. Despite campaign promises to end the war, Trump recently approved additional military support for Kiev, including Patriot missile systems. The debate exposes growing discontent among Republican ranks about endless foreign interventions and unchecked military spending. Meanwhile, Ukrainian officials praised Trump’s support, calling it a vital deterrent against Russian advances. Greene warned that ignoring these political alarm bells could prove disastrous for U.S. unity and voter trust. #MarjorieTaylorGreene #UkraineWar #GazaCrisis #Trump2024 #RepublicanDivide #USForeignPolicy #AmericaFirst #WarFunding #IsraelPalestine #Betrayal #TaxpayerMoney #StopTheWars #KievConflict #TrumpVsGOP #YoungVoterBacklash #TrumpMissiles #PatriotMissiles #MiddleEastTensions #BidenForeignPolicy #AmericanVoters Also Read Trump Claims Canada's Recognition of Palestinian State Complicates Trade Negotiations :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-uses-canada-palestinian-state-recognition-leverage-trade-talks-011-7817517.html?ref=DMDesc Trump's Ambition as a Global Peacemaker Faces Challenges Amid Gaza Ceasefire Talks :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-global-peacemaker-gaza-ceasefire-challenges-011-7810943.html?ref=DMDesc Trump Condemns Brazilian Authorities for Alleged Witch Hunt Against Bolsonaro :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-criticises-brazilian-authorities-witch-hunt-bolsonaro-011-7794385.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.408~

‘Kamala Should Be Jailed!’ Trump ACCUSES Democrats Of Illegal Celebrity Payments | 2024 Elections [Video]

‘Kamala Should Be Jailed!’ Trump ACCUSES Democrats Of Illegal Celebrity Payments | 2024 Elections

U.S. President Donald Trump has ignited a political firestorm by accusing the Democratic Party of committing “fraud” during the 2024 election campaign. In a Truth Social post, Trump claimed that Democrats paid millions to celebrities for endorsements—an act he called “totally illegal.” He alleged $11 million was funneled to Beyoncé, $3 million to Oprah Winfrey, and $600,000 to Reverend Al Sharpton. Trump emphasized that none of the celebrities performed or contributed meaningfully, calling it a misuse of campaign funds and accusing them of falsifying financial records. He concluded with a demand for the prosecution of Vice President Kamala Harris and others “who broke the law.” Trump's latest explosive allegations have reignited debates on the legality of political endorsements, celebrity influence in elections, and campaign financing ethics. His claims, if proven, could carry legal and electoral consequences. The White House and Democratic Party are yet to respond. #TrumpVsKamala #EndorsementScandal #CelebrityFraud #BeyoncePolitics #TrumpTruthSocial #KamalaHarris #ElectionFraudClaims #CampaignCorruption #PoliticalEndorsement #OprahWinfrey #DonaldTrumpNews #Sharpton #DemocratsScandal #IllegalPayments #BreakingPolitics #TrumpAllegesFraud #2024ElectionControversy #TruthSocialPost #TrumpDemandsProsecution ~ED.346~HT.408~GR.125~
