Trump’s Economic War on Iran | Lubbock News
from Lubbock Daily News Now | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!
Trump’s administration is unleashing economic warfare on Iran, calling it “economic D-Day” to force Tehran to halt its nuclear program and reopen the Strait of Hormuz — as the Iran war hits six months and weapons run low. Meanwhile, U.S.-South Korea drills ended early, seen as a diplomatic nod to North Korea despite Pyongyang’s refusal to resume talks. Trump also struck a temporary beef import deal to lower prices and revive the cattle industry, though details remain scarce. Behind the scenes, Justice Department probes are expanding into interviews over the FBI’s 2022 Mar-a-Lago raid, possibly building a case for charges in Florida. Globally, markets wobbled after Wall Street’s dip, with Treasury’s debt-buyback plan offering little relief — though officials hint at doubling or even tripling repurchase efforts.
