    1. *the sudden rush of whines coming from suburban housewives not being able to order that duvet from Temu*

    2. In essence, the Trump administration is now asking foreign mail carriers to act as import tax collectors on behalf of the U.S. government — something they aren’t set up to do or may be refusing to do, she said.

      Reminds me of Mexico will pay for the wall, and expecting Mexico to go along with it

      Oh no! Trade wars have consequences? What? That’s so surprising! You mean to tell me, that punishing our trading partners for selling stuff and buying stuff is a bad thing? No way! I’m shocked! Shocked!

    4. „While foreign postal systems have no problem making deliveries to the United States, they don’t have systems to process tariffs and pay them into U.S. Customs and Border Protection, Layfield said.

      In essence, the Trump administration is now asking foreign mail carriers to act as import tax collectors on behalf of the U.S. government — something they aren’t set up to do or may be refusing to do, she said.

      “Why would a foreign post collect from a local business for a foreign country’s customs?” Layfield said. “It’s not something that anyone has done before.”“

      This is the Trump administration stupid attempt to make it look like they pay tarrifs when it’s still Americans paying them on import.

      Surprised they didn’t cancel my gamesir controller. Direct from China shipment.

    6. It’s not just orders that are affected by this moron, it’s anyone sending a package into the US. So like you’re traveling and want to send a gift home for your family, now tax has to be collected on it, you live abroad and want to send some home baked goods to family in the US, also taxed.

      Wasn’t there a revolution that occurred because a king was taxing people without representation? Seems like it might be time to get acquainted with the thinking of America’s founders.

      Meanwhile, Americans do nothing and go to their jobs pretending this is all normal.

      But thank goodness Gavin Newsom is posting Trump tweets now, that’ll solve everything.

    8. family from Colombia paid DHL $70 to send me medicines via two day delivery. That was two weeks ago. Finally received notice that the medicines are being sent back next Friday.
      Don’t waste your time and money trying to import to the US.
      I guess thats what you magas voted for. Ill pay six times the price here in the US. thats a win.

    9. Things are not going to get any better till the rest of the world cuts the USA off, completely, from interactions on the world stage.

      One thing I don’t quite understand here is why this cannot work?

      I mean, it probably a USA side issue or something with how they set up their inbound processing facilities, but when I buy something in the USA and have get shipped to the EU, it enters my country and the package Transporter basically works as the customs office and collects any outstanding import taxes on it. I get a payment link and once that is resolved the package gets on the regular national distribution.

      Are we great again yet? /s

      Fuck republicans and non voters for putting us in this mess.

    12. I’m a consultant for a couple firms that import. Many of our shipments were held up mysteriously this week and released today. On a personal note I had an order from the UK held up as well that has still not been released. It looks like they’re trying to bolster the collection by withholding packages.

    13. Helllll yea finally free trade. So sick of all those counties selling us stuff when we could just pay tons more to have made in America, if at all. At least wages are going up to cover it. We are going to be so great soon. Just wait. 2 more weeks I promise.

      Nice. All you Americans deserve this. All of you. Outside of just a handful of people the rest of you are doing absolutely nothing to stop the orange monster. You guys think writing „fascist“ over and over again to the point it’s meaningless does something? Lol…. 

    15. I guess conservatives are saying this is a problem we should just deal with? Or are they too busy loudly proclaiming they are not in fact the hateful regressive apes they are.

      People pointed out America first is an isolationist mindset. We are in the find out stage of FAFO.

      I don’t know when it’ll happen but we’re on a trajectory where eventually we’ll leave NATO or they’ll kick us out. There’s a future NWO where we aren’t at the top. Without being active members in the global economy, Americans of this future will have to be fully self reliant.
