Since MAGA-cult accounts are now claiming US tariffs are just to response to our tariffs, I'm dropping by to share this:

99.14% of US exports to Canada and 100% of US exports to Mexico are (were) tariff free.

Trump is targeting the two countries that tariff US goods the least.

Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen, at the #SupportUkraine summit in Kyiv, called on leaders to remove all red lines in Ukraine’s fight against Russian aggression.

She also said that Europe has only a couple of months to make necessary decisions or it will be too late.

Wow, Canadians work quick. Some stores are already putting up signs to make sure their customers don't buy any American products.

[Sen. Susan Collins @SenatorCollins]

The Maine economy is integrated with Canada, our most important trading partner. Certain tariffs will impose a significant burden on many families, manufacturers, the forest products industry, small businesses, lobstermen, and agricultural producers.

For example, 95 percent of the heating oil used by most Mainers to heat their homes comes from refineries in Canada. The Air National Guard Base in Bangor depends completely on jet fuel and diesel from Canada. From fisheries to potato farmers to paper mills, these tariffs will have a significant impact on Maine’s economy and risk increasing costs for our residents.

I am working with the Trump Administration to help its officials better understand the potential ramifications of certain tariffs on Maine and to find out more about their implementation, scope, duration, and other important information, including any exemptions they may make for northern border states, certain industries, agricultural producers, and others who rely on trade with Canada.
