1…………> Goodbye To US: Erdogan

 

“We will say bye bye to those, who sacrifice their strategic partnership and alliance with a country of 81 million people on the altar of their relations with terror organizations,” Turkey’s President Recep Tayyip Erdogan criticized the Trump’s administration, saying Turkey will say “bye bye” to those, who prefer terrorists to their strategic partner.

Erdogan was speaking at ruling Justice and Development (AK) Party’s meeting in the northeastern Turkish province of Trabzon as President Trump cranked up his attack on NATO eastern flank most important country by doubling U.S. tariffs on aluminum and steel imports to 20% and 50%, de-facto continuing the war ushered by an unsuccessful attempt on Mr. Erdogan’s life by our 1st Muslim President, Grand Ayatollah Barack Obama.

“Aren’t we strategic partners?” Erdogan asked Washington. “What happened to you now? Why are you destroying this partnership?

Labeling the recent U.S. tariffs on Turkey as an “economic war,” Mr.Erdogan said: “We’ve seen your game, and we will challenge it.”

The aim of the recent U.S. pressure is “to seize Turkey in every field from finance to politics,” the president noted.

“We will not surrender,” Mr.Erdogan asserted. “We will continue producing. We will continue increasing our exports.”

2…………> Boycot Harley-Davidson: Trump

 

As Harley-Davidson announced a plan to move some production overseas to avoid tariffs, Mr. Trump alleged that many Harley owners plan to boycott the company, the latest salvo in a dispute between the company and Mr. Trump over tariffs on steel as it is already struggling with falling sales.

“Many @harleydavidson owners plan to boycott the company if manufacturing moves overseas. Great! Most other companies are coming in our direction, including Harley competitors. An awful move! The U.S. will soon have a level playing field, or better,” Mr. Trump tweeted.

3…………> Nationalist Rally Out Of Gas: D.C

 

As about 20 far-right, white nationalists supporters attended a rally near the White House in Washington, D.C. which came a year after violence in Charlottesville, Virginia, they were outnumbered by hundreds of chanting opponents who staged their rally nearby, denouncing white supremacy and racism.

The two sides were kept apart by a heavy police presence as the white nationalists were escorted to Lafayette Square, in front of the White House, and were shouted at along the route by a larger group of counter-protesters chanting “shame” and “get out of my city.”
