On Sunday, U.S. President Donald Trump announced the possibility that, once the tariffs take effect, there could be a reduction or elimination of income taxes for individuals earning less than US$200,000 a year.

“When the tariffs cut in, many people’s income taxes will be substantially reduced, maybe even eliminated entirely. Focus will be on those earning less than $200,000 a year,” the Republican president wrote today on his social media platform, Truth Social.

“Also, massive numbers of jobs are already being created, with new plants and factories currently being built or planned,” he added.

“It will be a bonanza for America!!! The External Revenue Service is happening!!!” the U.S. President concluded.

This week, a coalition of twelve states, led by the attorneys general of Oregon and Arizona, filed a lawsuit seeking to block the tariffs imposed by Trump, arguing that the tariffs are “illegal.”

The lawsuit aims to block the imposition of a 145% tariff on most products from China and a 25% tariff on most products from Canada and Mexico, important trading partners of the plaintiff states.

It also challenges the 10% tariffs on most products imported from the rest of the world, as well as the Trump’s plan to raise tariffs on imports from an additional 46 trading partners starting on July 9.

If I knew how to add emojis to the list I'd include this one.I'll try to add it when I get home, failing that I'll bug our emoji experts to teach me how to do it, failing that I'll just beg our emoji experts to add it while calling me a blockhead.
