    President Donald Trump on Friday exempted key agricultural imports like coffee, cocoa, bananas and certain beef products from his higher tariff
    rates.

    The move comes as Trump faces political blowback for high prices at U.S. grocery stores. Some distributors of beef, coffee, chocolate and other
    common food items have raised prices as TrumprCOs tariffs took hold this
    year, adding to pressure on household budgets created by decades-high inflation in recent years.

    TrumprCOs action Friday also exempts a range of fruits including tomatoes, avocados, coconuts, oranges and pineapples. Along with coffee, the
    tariff reductions extend to black and green tea, and spices like
    cinnamon and nutmeg.

    The move marks a reversal for Trump, who has insisted tariffs are
    necessary to protect U.S. businesses and workers. He has contended U.S. consumers will not ultimately pay for the higher duties.

    Who would of thought. That the consumer pays the bills.

    I see Epstein is back too. Very good.

    An old friend who I split with over MAGA/Trump worship just sent
    me an anti-Trump AI image he created. I think the tide might be
    turning. Soon bob will be saying he never supported Trump, and
    Max will be back shilling Hillary.
