TERROR ON TRADE! TRUMP SLAMS 25% TARIFF ON OIL BUYERS!
In a bold move that’s throwing shockwaves through global trade, Donald Trump has unleashed a massive 25% tariff on all imports from countries that dare to buy oil from Venezuela! Buckle up, because this could mean sky-high prices on everyday goods from China and India—two of Venezuela’s largest oil consumers!
Trump’s Tariff Tidal Wave Incoming!
This shocking announcement came just as Trump gears up to reveal his controversial new tariff regime, a wild rollercoaster of trade policies filled with dizzying twists and turns!
On Truth Social, Trump didn’t hold back, claiming, “Venezuela is sneaking in tens of thousands of high-level criminals, including murderers!” Yes, you heard that right! This isn’t just about oil; it’s about keeping American streets safe and borders secure!
Venezuela’s Oil Export Crisis!
But wait, there’s more chaos! This explosive trade battle erupted just days after Venezuela agreed to accept deported migrants from the US—what a twist! With the oil market in peril, concerns are rising that this move will wreak havoc on American gas prices!
Last year, Venezuela exported a staggering 660,000 barrels of crude daily, with China and India leading the charge in buyers. The US has also been part of the mix, importing about 230,000 barrels per day from Venezuela—making it the third-largest supplier!
Get Ready for “Liberation Day”!
Mark your calendars! Trump has announced that this unprecedented “secondary tariff” will kick in on April 2—a date he’s dubbed “liberation day”! This is crunch time as reciprocal tariffs on other countries are set to strike simultaneously!
Chevron’s License Revoked!
In a stunning blow to the oil giant, earlier this month the US Treasury yanked Chevron’s license to operate in Venezuela, demanding they pack up and leave within 30 days! This license allowed Chevron to export a significant 200,000 barrels per day, which critics claim bolstered Nicolás Maduro’s oppressive regime!
Venezuela’s Gang Menace!
But that’s not all! Trump is also zeroing in on the notorious Tren de Aragua gang, labeling them terrorists and pushing for the deportation of hundreds! In a bizarre twist, we just saw 199 Venezuelan deportees touch down near Caracas, as Trump ramps up pressure to ensure they’re sent packing and into justice!
Now, it’s about to get real! The Department of Justice just announced it will be deporting several gang members to Chile! The stakes are higher than ever, fueling an explosive trade feud that’s ready to reshape the financial landscape!
Hold onto your wallets, folks, because this isn’t just a policy—this is a high-stakes game of diplomacy that could change everything in the blink of an eye!
