White House Clarifies ‘245% Tariffs’ on China | Needles, Lithium & Squid Take Huge Hits
The White House has issued a clarification on the controversial 245% tariff against China, detailing which goods will face the highest import taxes.
This unprecedented wave of tariffs—ranging from 145% to 245%—includes legacy measures from Trump’s first term, as well as Biden-era expansions and new 2025 levies.
Chinese goods like needles, syringes, lithium batteries, and sweaters are among the hardest hit.
China responded firmly, warning the U.S. against threats and calling for mutual benefit in trade talks.
The new tariffs mark a critical escalation in the ongoing trade war.

President Donald Trump claims nearly 275,000 illegal immigrants have been removed from the U.S. Social Security system following his signing of the “One Big Beautiful Bill.” Speaking to supporters, Trump touted the measure as both a senior citizen tax relief initiative and a step to protect benefits from what he called “fraudulent claims.” He linked the deportations to safeguarding Social Security funds for American retirees, framing the move as a major policy success and a warning to undocumented migrants.

At a press conference, Donald Trump fiercely distanced himself from the Ukraine war, calling it “Biden’s war” and vowing to end it. Responding to a shocking question about Ukraine conscripting elderly men and individuals with Down Syndrome to fight on the front lines, Trump said, “I haven’t heard that... but I’m here to get us out.” He claimed the war would’ve never happened under his leadership and criticized the Biden administration’s continued funding of Ukraine’s military, which he described as “scraping the bottom of the barrel.”
Trump touted his record of stopping five wars and promised Ukraine would be the sixth. He also referenced diffusing tensions between India and Pakistan “within days.” The remarks have reignited debates over American military aid and raised concerns about ethical limits in wartime conscription. Trump’s statement drew applause from some, shock from others, and further polarized an already divisive foreign policy debate.

As MAGA infighting deepens, Donald Trump has publicly praised far-right activist Laura Loomer, calling her a “very nice person” and a “patriot” in response to a reporter's pointed question about her influence in his circle. The endorsement comes amid Loomer's own controversy — she recently unveiled a “tip line” aimed at helping Trump allies report and remove “disloyal” government staffers. Loomer claims Biden holdovers and anti-Trump insiders are sabotaging the movement from within and insists “hundreds” need to be purged.
The president's warm words about her raise eyebrows, especially as he attempts to consolidate power ahead of the upcoming election. Loomer’s call for a MAGA-only government has sparked concern across Washington, while Trump appears to embrace her ideology. Critics see the move as a dangerous precedent, while supporters argue it's a long-overdue loyalty check. The line between activism and influence seems blurrier than ever inside Trump’s inner circle.

U.S President Donald Trump launched a harsh public tirade against Charlamagne “The God,” calling him a “racist sleazebag” and “low IQ individual” while questioning the acceptability of his self-appointed moniker. Trump also took aim at his daughter-in-law, Lara Trump, for appearing on Charlamagne’s show—highlighting the irony of her high ratings success. In a scathing statement, he hailed his own record of ending five wars, bolstering the economy, and slashing inflation, while denouncing “stupid and corrupt” President Joe Biden. The accusations included wiping out Iran’s nuclear ambitions and fixing the border, crafting a braggadocious defense of his performance in office. His unfiltered critique of both media and family members drew widespread attention, fueling a media storm and sparking debate about the boundaries of political discourse and public insult.
