Trump really turning the screw, He added that the tariffs on Colombian imports would start at 25% on all goods and would rise to 50% in one week.
The retaliatory measures also include "A Travel Ban and immediate Visa Revocations on the Colombian Government Officials, and all Allies and Supporters," Trump wrote, as well as "Visa Sanctions on all Party Members, Family Members, and Supporters of the Colombian Government."

Colombian president Gustavo Petro reportedly offered the use of his presidential plane to help repatriate deportees from the U.S. on Sunday, shortly after President Donald Trump threatened the country with retaliatory tariffs for having turned away two U.S. military aircraft carrying the deportees earlier in the day, according to CNN.
They were dumb enough to vote for the orange turd.

The chairman of a coalition, which successfully lobbied Arab-Americans to vote for Donald Trump, has slammed the new president for his weekend comments on Gaza.
"Arab-Americans for Trump firmly rejects President Donald J Trump's suggestion to remove - voluntarily or forcibly - Palestinians in Gaza to Egypt and Jordan," said Dr Bishara Bahbah, national chair of Arab Americans for Trump.
The statement signals an early sign of tension with a key demographic which helped push President Trump over the line in November.
A critical number of Arab-Americans in places like Michigan helped propel Mr Trump to victory. Small margins in cities like Dearborn and Hamtramck were key to Mr Trump's success.

"I am sick and tired of billionaires stacking the deck and creating an unlevel playing field that advantages only themselves and exploits regular middle class folk like myself. Thats why I voted for a billionaire who used a $250 million donation from the "richest man in the world" with ropes attached to win the presidential election. He will surely care for us regular folk. Makes all the sense in the world!"Quote:

Tech stocks plunge as China ‘delivers AI wake-up call’
China's Deepseek AI chatbot has triggered a sell-off in major tech stocks
Tech stocks have plunged around the world after a China AI start-up unveiled a new chatbot which threatens to match its major global competitors at a lower cost.
DeepSeek’s new artificial intelligence chatbot has triggered market turmoil that could wipe more than $1 trillion (£799bn) off technology companies at the opening bell in New York later.
It has soared to the top of the Apple Store’s download charts as it stunned industry insiders with its ability to match its US competitors.
The Nasdaq in New York plunged more than 3pc in premarket trading as DeepSeek said it had spent only $5.6m (£4.5m) developing its model - peanuts when compared with the billions US tech giants have poured into AI.
William Beavington of Jefferies said: “What’s particularly remarkable to us really is the cost effectiveness and the efficiency they have driven from the chips being used.”
Shares in major tech firms in the US and Japan have tumbled, with chip making giant Nvidia down more than 10pc in premarket trading, having closed down more than 3pc on Wall Street on Friday.
If the losses hold, this would wipe nearly $400m (£319bn) off the value of the world’s dominant supplier of AI hardware and software.
Japanese tech conglomerate SoftBank was down more than 8pc overnight, less than a week after it was announced as a key investor in US President Donald Trump’s new $500bn (£401bn) venture to build infrastructure for artificial intelligence in the United States.
DeepSeek was developed by a start-up based in the eastern Chinese city of Hangzhou, known for its high density of tech firms.
Available as an app or on desktop, it can do many of the things that its Western competitors can do - write song lyrics, help work on a personal development plan, or even write a recipe for dinner based on what’s in the fridge.
Venture capitalist Marc Andreessen, a close advisor to Trump, described it as “AI’s Sputnik moment” - a reference to the Soviet satellite launch that sparked the Cold War space race.
Scale AI’s Wang wrote on X that DeepSeek “is a wake up call for America”.

There are a lot of people in China.
Many are quite smart.
This is a race the US might not win.
Who knows? History will tell.
WASHINGTON — The Justice Department said Monday that it had fired more than a dozen employees who worked on criminal prosecutions of President Donald Trump, moving rapidly to pursue retribution against lawyers involved in the investigations and signaling an early willingness to take action favorable to the President’s personal interests.
The abrupt termination targeting career prosecutors who worked on special counsel Jack Smith’s team is the latest sign of upheaval inside the Justice Department and is consistent with the administration’s determination to purge the government of workers it perceives as disloyal to the President.

President Donald Trump has signed an executive order related to “eliminating gender radicalism in the military” after it was expected that he would sign a ban on transgender people from serving in the U.S. military, building on a series of measures targeting transgender and nonbinary Americans since returning to office last week.

Can one of our American friends put this in perspective? I would have expected the media to be all over it.
So far it has been referred to the House Committee on Ways and Means. Is there some legal reason it is already dead in the water?
