President Trump announces new tariffs on drugs, trucks, and kitchen cabinets to protect American manufacturers from foreign imports. The tariffs include a 100% levy on branded drug imports, a 25% tariff on heavy-duty trucks, and 50% levies on kitchen and bathroom cabinets. These tariffs, announced on Trump's Truth Social platform, aim to boost domestic manufacturing and address concerns about unfair competition and high levels of imports hurting local manufacturers. The US Chamber of Commerce has warned against new tariffs, citing potential increases in costs and impracticality of sourcing many parts domestically.
