President Trump has officially announced the implementation of his tariffs.
His plan includes immediate reciprocal tariffs on nearly all U.S. trading partners. He announced that he will impose 25 percent tariffs on imported automobiles and auto parts, expected to take effect tomorrow, excluding Canada and Mexico.
During his announcement, he declared reciprocal tariffs on multiple countries, including 34 percent on China.
Major farm groups like the American Farm Bureau, National Farmers Union, and NASDA made a last-minute pitch to urge President Trump to reconsider tariffs. However, the shrimp industry is praising the move, hoping tariffs will help save generational businesses and boost domestic supply.
The changing political climate in America is leading to a drop in migrant crossings near the U.S.-Mexico border, where ranchers like Dr. Mike Vickers say they witnessed horrors from death to child trafficking.
