Former President Donald Trump warned American tractor giant John Deere on Monday about moving its manufacturing to Mexico. In June, John Deere — which is based in Illinois — announced it would be laying off around 600 people in the state and moving the manufacturing of skid steer loaders and compact track loaders to Mexico, Fox Business reported. Trump, while speaking to a group of farmers in rural Pennsylvania on Monday, promised that if he wins in November, he will place a 200% tariff on everything John Deere makes in Mexico to sell in the U.S. “I just noticed behind me John Deere tractors. I know a lot about John Deere, I love the company. But as you know, they’ve announced a few days ago that they’re going to move a lot of their manufacturing business to Mexico,” Trump said. “I’m just notifying John Deere right now, if you do that, we’re putting a 200 percent tariff on everything you want to sell into the United States, so that if I win, John Deere is going to be paying a 200 percent [tariff] — they haven’t started it yet. Maybe they haven’t even made the final decision yet, but I think they have.” “They think they’re going to make product cheaper in Mexico and then sell it in [the U.S.] for the same prices as they did before, make a lot of money by getting rid of our labor and our jobs,” he added.

I’m telling you right now, we’re putting a 200% tariff on them, which means they’re unsellable.” During his administration, Trump levied tariffs on thousands of products, especially on goods coming to the U.S. from China. Most of the Trump tariffs have been kept in place by the Biden administration.

Former President Donald Trump let Vice President Kamala Harris have it during a Monday campaign stop in western Pennsylvania, calling her out for failing to answer questions about her record or policies. Trump made a stop at Sprankles Market in Kittanning just ahead of his rally in nearby Indiana, PA, and he stopped briefly to talk to some of the employees and customers while he was there. The former president also gave brief remarks outside the store, taking a swing at Harris. WATCH: President Trump: "This woman is not capable. She was on Oprah and she couldn't answer the most basic question. We've gone through 4 years of that. We're not going to go through another 4 years… She couldn't answer ANY questions — nobody knew what she was even talking about." pic.twitter.com/LSmjguFT90 — Trump War Room (@TrumpWarRoom) September 24, 2024 “It’s based on the fact that this woman is not capable. She was on Oprah and she couldn’t answer the most basic question,” Trump said, referencing Harris’ recent interview with the longtime talk show host. Am I Racist?

She couldn’t answer ANY questions that were — nobody knew what she was even talking about — and she didn’t know what she was talking about. We had four years of that, our country has gone to hell. Inflation. Crime, look at the crime numbers.” In her recent sit-down with Oprah, Harris struggled mightily to answer an audience question about what concrete steps she planned to take to reduce costs for American families. This is why Kamala’s handlers keep her away from the media. pic.twitter.com/r6vbXd4cO5 — Trump War Room (@TrumpWarRoom) September 20, 2024 The vice president took a question from the audience and was asked to outline her plans to bring prices down for everyday Americans who were struggling to pay rent and put food on the table and gas in their cars. Instead of answering that question directly, Harris delivered a rambling speech about the relative unattainability of the American Dream for young people today. “In terms of both rightly having the right to have aspirations and dreams and ambitions for your family and working hard and finding that the American Dream is for this generation and so many recently far more elusive than it’s been, and we need to deal with that,” Harris replied.

An Indiana prison must provide transgender surgery to an inmate convicted of killing a baby, a federal judge ruled last week. Jonathan C. Richardson, who now identifies as female and goes by Autumn Cordellionè, was convicted in 2001 of fatally strangling his 11-month-old stepdaughter. He is currently serving 55 years behind bars for reckless homicide. In August of last year, the American Civil Liberties Union sued the Indiana Department of Corrections on behalf of Cordellioné, demanding the prison system pay for his transgender genital surgery. An Indiana law that took effect last year prevents taxpayer dollars from going toward transgender surgeries for prison inmates. The ACLU argued the law violates the Constitution’s ban on “cruel and unusual punishment” because the surgery is a “medical necessity” for Cordellioné. Last week, United States District Court Judge Richard Young sided with the ACLU and handed Cordellioné a win. Am I Racist? Is In Theaters NOW — Get Your Tickets Here! “Specifically, Ms. Cordellioné has shown that her gender dysphoria is a serious medical need, and that, despite other treatments Defendant has provided her to treat her gender dysphoria, she requires gender-affirming surgery to prevent a risk of serious bodily and psychological harm,” the judge wrote in his ruling. The state corrections department must now take “all reasonable actions” to provide Cordellioné with transgender genital surgery. Indiana’s Republican attorney general, Todd Rokita, promised to appeal the judge’s ruling. “An Indiana inmate convicted of murder wants our taxpayers to fund their gender-altering surgery! Hoosiers do NOT want this. We’re still reviewing the court’s opinion, but you can undoubtedly expect our office to appeal this decision,” Rokita posted on X. Cordellioné began identifying as a female around 2020 while in prison. He was diagnosed with gender dysphoria and has been taking female hormones and a testosterone blocker since then, according to court documents. Nevertheless, he continues to experience “serious depression and anxiety” caused by his “recognition that she is a woman trapped in a man’s body.” The ACLU warned that trans-identifying men who cannot get transgender genital surgery may become suicidal or try to castrate themselves to “alleviate their distress.” Cordellioné has attempted suicide and engaged in self-harm, the lawsuit claims. Trans-identifying male inmates have caused a number of challenges for prisons in recent years. Cordellioné is far from the first prison inmate to demand sex reassignment surgery. The ACLU has sued successfully on behalf of other inmates demanding this procedure. Other inmates have demanded successfully to be transferred to women’s prisons, resulting in them living alongside biologically female inmates. This has sparked lawsuits from women inmates accusing trans-identifying men of sexually abusing and even raping them.

A small business owner in western Pennsylvania told former President Donald Trump on Monday that his store had always turned a profit — until President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris were elected. Trump spoke about the Biden-Harris economy with the owner of Sprankle’s Market in Kittanning, just ahead of his Monday evening rally in Indiana, PA — and his campaign shared a video of their conversation.

It’s exactly what you said: the prices are up, our sales are down, so we’ve had to get super creative in how we use our space to try to —” Am I Racist? Is In Theaters NOW — Get Your Tickets Here! “—Prices go up and yet your sales are down,” Trump remarked. “Yeah, so it’s been brutal just to try to — thankfully, I have a great crew, great staff, my family works together,” Sprankle continued. “How long has this been open?” Trump asked, and then added, “Wow,” when the Sprankle told him they’d been in business for 25 years. “We bought it — and this store, where you’re standing, has been a grocery store since 1929.” “Wow,” Trump repeated. “That’s great, that’s beautiful.” While at the market, Trump picked up a large bag of popcorn for the road — and promised to order more from the White House if it was as good as people told him. He also spoke briefly to a mother who was standing in the checkout line with her three sons, chipping in $100 for her groceries and promising to bring prices down if he was elected again.
