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.

The White House has issued a clarification on the explosive 245% tariff targeting Chinese imports. The new addendum reveals a two-tier structure—some goods will face the full 245%, while others remain at 145% for now. Trump’s administration has unleashed a historic wave of tariffs, including legacy measures from his first term, Biden-era expansions, and new 2025 hikes. China’s Foreign Ministry spokesman Lin Jian condemned U.S. pressure, warning of firm retaliation. From lithium batteries to squid and syringes, the fallout is just beginning. China says it’s open to talks—but not to blackmail.

The U.S. has approved a major arms shipment to Israel, including 3,000 bombs, signaling preparation not just for Gaza, but possibly a strike on Iran. Israeli officials confirmed that these munitions will enhance Air Force readiness for large-scale operations. While the Gaza offensive takes global attention, analysts warn the real showdown may be brewing with Tehran. This deal, once frozen under Biden, was fast-tracked by Trump. Experts say the munitions can also target hardened Iranian facilities—raising fresh concerns about regional escalation and U.S. involvement in Israel-Iran tensions.

In his first major address since leaving office, Joe Biden took sharp aim at Donald Trump's Social Security policies, accusing the administration of trying to "wreck it so they could rob it." Speaking at the ACRD conference in Chicago, Biden warned of potential delays in benefits, criticized GOP tax priorities, and called for unity amid deep national divisions. He highlighted past Democratic leadership and earned ACRD’s Beacon of Hope Award. The Trump administration hit back on X, denying cuts and accusing Biden of misleading Americans. The 2024 political firestorm has begun.
