Futures Plunge After Trump Threatens 25% Tariff On Apple, 50% On Europe; Bonds & Bullion Bid​


It was set to be a relatively quiet day, with stock futures unchanged, yields modestly lower, bitcoin just shy of record highs... and then Trump woke up.

First, in a post on his Truth Social just after 7:20am ET, the clearly angry president said that unless iPhone that are sold in the US are not also built in the US, then a "Tariff of at least 25% must be paid by Apple to the U.S."

The comment immediately wiped out tens of billions in value from AAPL stock, which tumbled $10 to $193, or more than 4%...

... and while the news also dragged broader futures lower, Trump saved his second market punishment for 25 minutes later when at 7:45am ET, the president doubled down on his post-awakening stream of Truth Social consciousness and wrote that he is "recommending a straight 50% Tariff on the European Union, starting on June 1, 2025. There is no Tariff if the product is built or manufactured in the United States."

The rest of this post was going to be the a recap of the overnight news, but obviously none of that matters now that Trump decided to take a nuke to newsflow and blow everything up.

Meanwhile, Trump, his family, friends, and close business associates are loading up on Apple stocks.

Next week he will walk back his threats of tariffs on Apple, and they will make billions.

Can you prove that? Or just speculation on your part?

Now, had you said Nancy Pelosi, I would have given a "thumbs up".

Trump Brags About How Tariff Pause Made His Friends Even Richer

Donald Trump is openly bragging about just how much money his billionaire buddies made off of his dangerous tariff gambit.

After announcing a 90-day pause Wednesday on his sweeping “reciprocal tariff” policy on nearly every country—with the exception of China—Trump was excited to take credit for making a buck for his guests at the Oval Office.

The manifesto of revolutionary Elias Rodriguez...
🔻🏴‍☠️ The manifesto of revolutionary Elias Rodriguez did not read like a hodgepodge of leftism or identity politics... But profoundly human. And whether he knew it or not, his invocations of certain world events only [seem to] reinforce our analysis that his liquidation of two Zionist demons was the ultimate One Struggle action. He invoked Yemen--a Jewish war from the jump. He invoked the aggression against Vietnam--the architect of which was the demonic Jew Walt Whitman Rostow aka "Rasputin". And he invoked the Mayan Genocide in Guatemala that the usurping Jewish entity actively and overwhelmingly facilitated, chiefly through a special relationship with dictator General Efraín Ríos Montt. The words of Elias, rooted in shared pain, shared history and shared struggle, remind us that we're all in this together... And the battle doesn't end and the globe ain't free 'till the Tumor is eradicated and World Jewry is toppled (1/2).🔻🏴‍☠️



"Halintar is a word that means something like thunder or lightning. In the wake of an act people look for a text to fix its meaning, so here's an attempt.



"The atrocities committed by 'Israelis' against Palestine defy description and defy quantification. Instead of reading descriptions mostly we watch them unfold on video, sometimes live.



"After a few months of rapidly mounting death tolls 'Israel' had obliterated the capacity to even continue counting the dead, which has served its genocide well. At time of writing the Gaza Health Ministry records 53,000 killed by traumatic force, at least ten thousand lie under rubble, and who knows how many thousands more dead of preventable disease, hunger, with tens of thousands now at risk of imminent famine due to Israeli blockade, all enabled by Western and Arab government complicity.



"The Gaza Information Office includes the ten thousand under the rubble with the dead in their own count. In news reports there have been those 'ten thousand' under the rubble for months now, despite the continual making of more rubble and repeated bombing of rubble again and again and the bombing of tents amid the rubble.



"Like the Yemen death toll which had been frozen at some few thousand for years under Saudi-UK-US bombardment before being belatedly revealed to stand at 500k dead, all of these figures are almost surely a criminal undercount.



"I have no trouble believing the estimates that put the toll at 100,000 or more.



"More have been murdered since March of this year than in 'Protective Edge' and 'Cast Lead' put together. What more at this point can one say about the proportion of mangled and burned and exploded human beings whom were children. We who let this happen will never deserve the Palestinians' forgiveness. They've let us know as much.



"An armed action is not necessarily a military action. It usually is not. Usually it is theater and spectacle, a quality it shares with many unarmed actions. Nonviolent protest in the opening weeks of the genocide seemed to signal some sort of turning point. Never before had so many tens of thousands joined the Palestinians in the streets across the West. Never before had so many American politicians been forced to concede that, rhetorically at least, the Palestinians were human beings, too. But thus far the rhetoric has not amounted to much. The 'Israelis' themselves boast about their own shock at the free hand the Americans have given them to exterminate the Palestinians.



"Public opinion has shifted against the genocidal apartheid state, and the American government has simply shrugged, they'll do without public opinion then, criminalize it where they can, suffocate it with bland reassurances that they're doing all they can to restrain Israel where it cannot criminalize protest outright." 🔻🏴‍☠️

Elsewhere a man of conscience once attempted to throw Robert McNamara off a Martha's Vineyard-bound ferry into the sea, incensed at the same impunity and arrogance he saw in that butcher of Vietnam as he sat in the ferry's lounge laughing with friends. The man took issue with McNamara's "very posture, telling you, 'My history is fine, and I can be slumped over a bar like this with my good friend Ralph here and you'll have to lump it.'" The man did not succeed in heaving McNamara off a catwalk into the water, the former secretary of state managed to cling to the railing and clamber back to his feet, but the assailant explicated the value of the attempt by saying "Well, I got him outside, just the two of us, and suddenly his history wasn't so fine, was it?"

A word about the morality of armed demonstration. Those of us against the genocide take satisfaction in arguing that the perpetrators and abettors have forfeited their humanity. I sympathize with this viewpoint and understand its value in soothing the psyche which cannot bear to accept the atrocities it witnesses, even mediated through the screen. But inhumanity has long since shown itself to be shockingly common, mundane, prosaically human. A perpetrator may then be a loving parent, a filial child, a generous and charitable friend, an amiable stranger, capable of moral strength at times when it suits him and sometimes even when it does not, and yet be a monster all the same. Humanity doesn't exempt one from accountability. The action would have been morally justified taken 11 years ago during Protective Edge, around the time I personally became acutely aware of our brutal conduct in Palestine. But I think to most Americans such an action would have been illegible, would seem insane. I am glad that today at least there are many Americans for which the action will be highly legible and, in some funny way, the only sane thing to do.

I love you Mom, Dad, baby sis, the rest of my familia, including you, O*****

Free Palestine
