Letitia James EXPOSED? Trump Admin Drops BOMBSHELL Fraud Case—Fake Husband, Fake Home, BUSTED!

Trump’s administration has referred New York AG Letitia James for criminal prosecution, alleging she committed mortgage fraud by misrepresenting her primary residence and falsely listing her father as her husband. The explosive claims come as James continues to pursue legal action against Trump. Critics call it poetic justice, pointing out James previously charged Trump for similar offenses. Legal experts say the documents appear “damning,” raising questions about whether James followed the same legal standards she holds others to. The DOJ has not yet responded. #LetitiaJames #TrumpVsJames #MortgageFraud #BreakingNews #DOJ #TrumpAdministration #NYAttorneyGeneral #LegalDrama #ScandalAlert #PoliticalFeud #TrumpNews #WhiteHouse #FoxNewsExclusive #IngrahamAngle #LetitiaUnderFire #FraudAllegations #NYPolitics #CriminalReferral #MortgageScandal #TrumpWatch ~HT.410~

'125% Tariff On China': Trump's Non-Stop Attack After 84% Tariff Retaliation By Beijing | Details

China-US Tariff War: President Donald Trump has declared a 90-day pause on all new "reciprocal" tariffs, excluding China, which now faces a 125% levy. The decision triggered a massive rally on Wall Street, with the S&P 500 seeing its best day since 2008. Trump emphasized the need to avoid hurting friendly nations. However, economists remain cautious—Goldman Sachs warns of a 45% chance of a U.S. recession. Despite market optimism, analysts suggest the pause may not fully counteract the economic turbulence sparked by the ongoing global trade war. #TrumpTariffs #TradeWar #USChina #RecessionFears #WallStreet #TariffPause #NasdaqRally #S&P500 #GlobalMarkets #Economy2025 #GoldmanSachs #JoeBrusuelas #USPolicy #FinancialMarkets #AsiaMarkets #MarketRally #TrumpSpeech #GlobalTrade #ChinaTariffs #ReciprocalTariffs ~HT.178~ED.346~GR.122~

Global market crash: Goldman Sachs increases recession odds to 45% after market meltdown [Video]

Global market crash: Goldman Sachs increases recession odds to 45% after market meltdown

Goldman Sachs has raised the odds of a major US and global recession, warning that President Trump’s new tariffs could trigger a sharp economic downturn. Amid rising market panic and tightening financial conditions, Goldman forecasts a 45% chance of recession and slashes the US growth forecast for 2025 to 0.5%. The move comes after a global market meltdown, with China experiencing its biggest crash since 2008 and the EU facing harsh tariffs of 20%. Meanwhile, JPMorgan highlights US trade policies as the biggest risk to the global economic outlook, as retaliation, supply chain disruptions, and business uncertainty intensify. With Wall Street witnessing a $6.6 trillion wipeout in just two days, investor Bill Ackman warns that these policies could lead to an "economic nuclear winter." As countries like Canada and the EU consider stronger responses, the global trade landscape enters a volatile new phase. #Trump #StockMarketCrash #Economy #RecessionFears #FederalReserve #JPMorgan #GlobalRecession #Tariffs #TradeWar #WallStreet #ChinaCrash #USEconomy #GoldmanSachs #InterestRates #EconomicChaos Also Read China, US On Collision Course As Trade Spat Fuels Geopolitical Rift; Beijing Vows To ‘Fight To The End’ :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/china-us-on-collision-course-as-trade-spat-fuels-geopolitical-rift-beijing-vows-to-fight-to-the-e-4117775.html?ref=DMDesc Viral Posts Rename Black Monday To ‘Orange Monday’ Amid Global Market Jitters :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/viral-posts-rename-black-monday-to-orange-monday-amid-global-market-jitters-4116865.html?ref=DMDesc The Trump Fiasco: How A Tariff Blitz Crashed The World Economy, What’s Next? :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/the-trump-fiasco-how-a-tariff-blitz-crashed-the-world-economy-what-s-next-4116797.html?ref=DMDesc
