Vance raised his middle fing@r on live TV during a fiery GOP event in Lima, Ohio—just moments after Donald Trump dropped an F-bomb over the broken Iran-Israel ceasefire.

Canada BOWS DOWN to Trump’s PRESSURE | Rescinds Digital Tax after Trump ‘KILLED’ Trade talks [Video]

Canada BOWS DOWN to Trump’s PRESSURE | Rescinds Digital Tax after Trump ‘KILLED’ Trade talks

Canada has officially scrapped its controversial 3% Digital Services Tax after former U.S. President Donald Trump halted all trade talks and threatened new tariffs. The tax, set to target tech giants like Amazon, Google, and Meta, faced intense U.S. backlash. Finance Minister Champagne said rescinding the tax is essential to reviving stalled negotiations. Ottawa had previously vowed not to yield, but with over 80% of Canadian exports reliant on the U.S., the rollback clears the way for renewed talks ahead of a July 21, 2025 deadline. #Canada #DigitalTax #Trump #USCanadaTrade #TradeTalks #Amazon #Meta #Google #TechTax #TariffThreat #DigitalServicesTax #Ottawa #MarkCarney #USExports #TradeFreeze #BreakingNews #EconomicPolicy #TradeDeal #CanadaUSRelations #FinanceMinister #TradeReversal #DigitalEconomy #CanadaBacktracks #TrumpTariffs #TaxRollback #BilateralTalks #GlobalTrade Also Read Canadian’s Viral Post Slams Sky-High Bengaluru Deposits: ‘I Could Buy A Thar Instead!’ :: https://www.oneindia.com/bengaluru/canadian-s-viral-post-slams-sky-high-bengaluru-deposits-i-could-buy-a-thar-instead-7786205.html?ref=DMDesc Indian Student Chants ‘Shankar Bhagwan Ki Jai’ At Graduation In Canada, Video Goes Viral :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/indian-student-chants-shankar-bhagwan-ki-jai-video-goes-viral-canada-011-7785461.html?ref=DMDesc ‘Great American Pilots Very Upset’: Trump Flips Again on Iran Strike Damage :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-debates-us-strikes-impact-on-iran-nuclear-programme-011-7783495.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.410~ED.103~

EXPLAINED: What is Canada’s Digital Tax & Why it TRIGGERED Trump to KILL All Trade talks? |Trade War

Explained! Why President Trump abruptly ended all trade talks with Canada. Trump called Canada's Digital Services Tax a “direct & blatant attack” on U.S. firms. The tax, retroactive to 2022, targets tech giants like Amazon, Meta, and Google, sparking fierce backlash. Trump also threatened new tariffs on Canadian exports, reigniting major trade tensions. With over 80% of Canadian exports headed to the U.S., the move could disrupt industries and escalate economic strain on both sides of the border. #TrumpVsCanada #DigitalServicesTax #USCanadaTensions #TradeWar #TrumpTradePolicy #CanadaTax #BigTechTax #USCanadaRelations #TariffThreat #BreakingNews #Amazon #Google #Meta #Uber #TradeTalksCollapsed #RetaliationPolitics #TruthSocialPost #GlobalTradeCrisis #TechTaxBattle #DigitalTaxDispute #USExports #CanadaEconomy #Trump2025 #TradeDisruption #USPolitics #CanadaNews #CrossBorderTensions #TradeBacklash #RetroactiveTax #EconomicTensions #NorthAmericaTrade #GlobalMarketImpact Also Read Canadian’s Viral Post Slams Sky-High Bengaluru Deposits: ‘I Could Buy A Thar Instead!’ :: https://www.oneindia.com/bengaluru/canadian-s-viral-post-slams-sky-high-bengaluru-deposits-i-could-buy-a-thar-instead-7786205.html?ref=DMDesc Trump Intends To Resolve North Korea Conflict Amid Reports Of Rejected Letter :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-intends-to-resolve-north-korea-conflict-amid-reports-of-rejected-letter-7785511.html?ref=DMDesc Indian Student Chants ‘Shankar Bhagwan Ki Jai’ At Graduation In Canada, Video Goes Viral :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/indian-student-chants-shankar-bhagwan-ki-jai-video-goes-viral-canada-011-7785461.html?ref=DMDesc ~GR.124~HT.408~

Trump Calls Reporter “Evil” Over Texas Flood Warning Question, Defends FEMA Funding And Abbott

President Donald Trump lashed out at a reporter during a Texas flood roundtable, calling the question about lack of early warnings “very evil.” Visiting Central Texas following massive flash floods that left over 100 dead, Trump praised FEMA and Governor Greg Abbott’s response team, pledging swift federal aid. The Texas “Flash Flood Alley” region suffered rapid water surges, catching communities unprepared. Trump claimed “fully funded within minutes” and commended responders. He reiterated that such rapid flooding was unprecedented, dismissing criticisms. Republican Rep. Chip Roy defended him, calling the question “ridiculous.” Trump also avoided answer on future FEMA role. With casualties including at least 27 campers in Kerr County, the event highlighted his administration's partnership with Texas officials. His remarks stirred controversy over leadership tone and disaster preparedness in face of growing climate disasters. #Trump #TexasFloods #FlashFloodAlley #TrumpVsReporter #FEMA #GregAbbott #CrisisResponse #TrumpSlamsReporter #TexasDisaster #FloodWarnings #Evacuation #TexasHillCountry #DisasterFunding #ClimateCrisis #TrumpRoundtable #FloodVictims #KerrCounty #MediaScrutiny #RepublicanDefense #FloodPreparedness ~HT.410~ED.103~GR.124~
