    After TrumprCOs defeat in the courts over his previous round of tariffs,
    he is trying again, under a different law, using the pretext of
    rCLforced labourrCY somehow being involved in production from the
    countries being targeted <https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2026/6/15/how-trump-is-relaunching-a-tariff-war-citing-forced-labour-concerns>.
    I guess the idea is, since the grounds are a bit more vague, itrCOll be
    harder for the courts to knock him down this time.

    Our Government already knows, NZ is one of those countries being
    targeted.

    Just another brick in the wall that is making the US less and less
    desirable as a trading partner.
