Full Briefing: Speaker Mike Johnson 'Blesses' Rep. Massie; Shuts Door On Epstein Files House Vote

He stated BRICS intends to trade in national currencies, with Russia already conducting 90% of payments with partners in local denominations. This counters US President Trump's concerns and threats of tariffs on BRICS countries, who are also developing "BRICS Pay," a decentralized blockchain payment system for cross-border transactions.

He encouraged people to support her by saying, 'Go get 'em Sydney!' Trump then criticised Jaguar for what he described as a 'woke' advertisement, which he said had damaged the brand. He claimed the company is now in 'absolute turmoil' and noted that the CEO had resigned. 'Who wants to buy a Jaguar after looking that disgraceful ad?' he wrote.

'The market cap destruction has been unprecedented, with billions of dollars lost,' Trump said, according to AP. The President also claimed he destroyed Swift's popularity when he posted to Truth Social in May that the megastar was 'no longer hot.' 'Or just look at Woke singer Taylor Swift.

Donald Trump Threatens To 'Substantially Increase' Tariffs On India Over Russian Oil
U.S. President Donald Trump has threatened steep tariffs on India, accusing it of profiting from the Ukraine war by buying and reselling Russian oil. A 25% tariff on Indian imports is set to take effect on August 7, with further penalties possible. Despite the warning, India remains firm on its energy strategy, citing market-based decisions. Russia now supplies nearly 40% of India's crude oil, up from just 2.5% before the war. The government says refiners will continue sourcing oil commercially, prioritizing energy security. The move places India in a diplomatic bind as it balances strategic autonomy with mounting U.S. pressure.#donaldtrump #indiatariffs #russianoil #trumpsocial #ukrainewar #crudeoil #energysecurity #geopolitics #tradepolicy #toi #toibharat Read More
