Trump postpones China tariff deadline 90 days after touting ‘very good’ relationship with Xi
Tuesday, 12 August 2025 () Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent participated in trade negotiations with China in May that resulted in a deal to temporarily ease up on strict tariffs imposed in April for 90 days.
Trump has officially ruled out Scott Bessent for the next Fed chair, telling CNBC that Bessent “wants to stay where he is.” The decision follows the surprise resignation of Fed Governor Adriana Kugler, giving Trump another opportunity to reshape the Federal Reserve with loyalists. Remaining candidates include Kevin Warsh, Kevin Hassett, and Fed Governor Chris Waller—whom Trump praised as “very good.” With Powell’s term ending in 2026, Trump is considering naming a “shadow chair” to counteract his policies and align the Fed with his low-rate agenda.

U.S. President Donald Trump has launched a fiery attack on Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-Texas), calling her “Low (Very!!!) I.Q.” and challenging her to take a cognitive exam. In a scathing Truth Social post, Trump compared Crockett to members of the progressive “AOC Plus Three” squad and claimed she was “only slightly dumber.”
He boasted about “acing” his own test during a recent physical at a military hospital, alleging Democrats would “fail” in “a spectacular show of stupidity and incompetence.” Crockett, a vocal Trump critic, recently called him a “piece of s---” during a public event, drawing national headlines. The feud comes as Texas Republicans push to redraw congressional districts in their favor.
