President Donald Trump in recent days slapped tariffs as high as 50% on dozens of countries, restoring the type of aggressive trade policy that sent stocks plummeting a few months ago. The new round of levies prompted little more than a shrug on Wall Street.

President Donald Trump expanded his tariff threats over the weekend, calling for 30% levies on two of America’s largest trading partners: the European Union and Mexico.

Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum on Tuesday said Mexico will take action if an agreement with Washington regarding new tariffs is not reached by the August 1 deadline set by her U.S. counterpart Donald Trump.

Most European markets took a hit as trading resumed in the wake of President Trump's latest tariff threats, and as the EU keeps hoping for a deal.

President Donald Trump posted letters to the leaders of Mexico and the European Union, saying they had not done enough to head off the new tariffs.

America’s biggest trading partners have tried tactics ranging from appeasement to retaliation to avoid higher tariffs. All find themselves faced with similar threats from Washington.

President Trump set a 50 day deadline for a ceasefire deal between Russia and Ukraine or else he will hit Russia with "severe" tariffs. Also, the U.S. is sending weapons to Ukraine through NATO. Politico Foreign Affairs Correspondent Eli Stokols and Puck Founding Partner Julia Ioffe join Katy Tur to react to Trump's change in tone on Russian President Putin.

The consequences of Trump’s tariffs have begun to set in. Prices are rising as normal Americans shoulder the burden of Trump’s fiscal policy of spite, and his tariffs cause basic goods to become more expensive.
