President Donald Trump wrote off a deadly Palm Sunday attack on the Ukrainian city of Sumy as a "mistake""before quickly blaming the war not on Vladimir Putin but on Joe Biden. Ballistic missiles ripped through the busy city center on Sunday morning as residents were out enjoying the pre-Easter festival and attending church services, according to the AP. Ukrainian officials said cluster munitions exploded in midair, killing 34 people"including two children"and injuring at least 117. Instead of condemning the strikes, Trump suggested the attack was unintentional. "I think it was terrible and I was told they made a mistake," he told reporters Sunday on Air Force One. "But I think it's a horrible thing. I think the whole war's a horrible thing." He then launched into a 90-second monologue about how if the 2020 election hadn't been "rigged" and he had been president in 2022, when Russia invaded, "We wouldn't have had the war in Ukraine."
Despite the on-off nature of President Donald Trump's tariffs on U.S. trading partners, among those that still stand is the 25 percent import tax on imported vehicles that went into effect on April 3. Wall Street and automotive industry analysts foresee massive global implications for the industry if these tariffs remain in place, with vehicle sales plummeting by millions as prices for both new and used cars surge, according to reporting by NBC News. Research reports put the increase in costs for the automotive industry due to Trump's tariffs in the region of $100 billion, with Boston Consulting Group putting the upper range at $160 billion for both U.S. and non-U.S. manufacturers.
A fire that burned part of the governor's residence early Sunday morning in Dauphin County while Gov. Josh Shapiro and his family were inside has been deemed arson, the state police said. Shapiro and his family are safe and uninjured. They were in a different part of the governor's residence on North Front Street in Harrisburg when the fire was set around 2 a.m. while Shapiro and his family slept. The fire was successfully extinguished but it caused significant damage to a portion of the residence.
He vowed: "My policies will never change." He insisted: "Sometimes you have to take medicine to fix something." He boasted: "I know what I'm doing." And at 9.33am on Wednesday, he entreated: "BE COOL. Everything is going to work out well." But less than four hours later, Donald Trump blinked. As the economic and political pressure became unbearable, the US president announced on social media that he would pause for 90 days higher trade tariffs for most countries, excluding China. It was a dramatic climbdown by a leader who has spent years cultivating the image of a strongman able to project indifference through every storm.
Newsweek reported that Caleb Ragland, who is president of the American Soybean Association, recently wrote an essay published in conservative journalist Bari Weiss' The Free Press about how the new import taxes Trump imposed on China are affecting his business. He pointed out that because tariffs on China have skyrocketed, his farm will likely go under by 2027 if current trade duties stay constant.
"Like many of my fellow farmers, I voted for President Donald Trump in the past three elections. The president won me over with his commitment to business-friendly tax cuts as well as his track record of reducing regulation and cutting government spending," Ragland wrote.
What was his previous name?
Incel Scatberg. He's famous for giving TB to the toddlers he's molested.
A man who authorities said scaled an iron security fence in the middle of the night, eluded police and broke into the Pennsylvania governor's mansion where he set a fire had planned to beat Gov. Josh Shapiro with a hammer if he found him, according to court documents released Monday.
He sounds just like the MAGAt who fractured Paul Pelosi's skull.
