The title is kind of confusing. The WSWS (trotskyist newspaper) has declared Mikie Sherrill to be a CIA asset because she was in the US Navy. She's not openly CIA like Elissa Slotkin.

I think they have new submarines in the works. DPRK received a lot of new technology from Russia.

I'm starting to think that cops set their own cars on fire so that they will get new cars.

I think the photo shows him sitting in a truck or SUV. Trucks in the US are massive. It is a problem. Trump wants other countries to buy US vehicles but US vehicles are so big that no other country wants them.

Possibly tracked down by right wing conspiracy theorists? I think they also played showed footage of the guy allegedly distributing masks on Fox News

Update. He gave a speech after being removed. He said he was handcuffed but not arrested and that he tried to interrupt the press conference by asking a question because he doesn't support ICE's activity in California.

yeonmi-park It is illegal to wear a mask to protect yourself from police chemical weapons. The state forces the citizens to inhale the gases. If you don't inhale the gases, then they disappear you.

Trump Coin is a crypto scam. Right Wing Media has pushed it as an indicator of Trump's success. They just straight up tell people that the more Trump Coin you buy, the more successful Trump's policies are.

Trump Gold Card is a visa that immigrants can pay $5 million to enter the US. It is similar to the 1990 EB-5 visa, where an immigrant has to pay $1 million and own a US business with at least 10 employees.

This isn't a trade deal

Congress would need to approve a trade agreement, which would take longer than the 90-day pause in place on some of Trump's tariffs.

This is an agreement which has reversed or cut some of those tariffs on specific goods.

Trump had placed import taxes of 25% on cars and car parts coming into the US on top of the existing 2.5%.

This has been cut to 10% for a maximum of 100,000 UK cars, which matches the number of cars the UK exported last year. But any cars exported above that 100,000 will be subject to a 27.5% import tax.

He also said the UK was buying $10bn worth of Boeing planes from the US.

No tariffs on steel and aluminium

What will be agreed on pharmaceuticals is still unknown.

There was no change to the UK's 2% digital services tax on US firms in this deal, despite reports there could be.

The UK has removed tariffs on American beef and other agricultural products, Trump said.

There will be no weakening of UK food standards on imports, the UK government statement said.

Many American farmers use growth hormones as a standard part of their beef production, something that was banned in the UK and the European Union in the 1980s.

I took this image from Trump's truthsocial page.

Trump thinks that receiving fiat currency is more valuable than material goods.

In the clip above, Trump says that "The Houthis have announced -- well they didn't announce to us -- that they don't want to fight anymore. They just don't want to fight and we will honor that."

^^ US says that it did not participate with Israel in over 20 strikes on Yemen today.

https://xcancel.com/DropSiteNews/status/1919812332231795187#m

^^ Trump says he will not reveal the source of the agreement, says it's not an official "deal".

https://xcancel.com/DropSiteNews/status/1919814764156391505#m

^^ Houthis spokesperson says they will no longer attack US military but will continue to attack Israel.
** Adding more context on this point. Mohammed al-Bukhaiti says that Ansarallah is not stopping their operations in the Red Sea. What I am interpretting here is that Ansarallah is agreeing to not attack US military as long as the US military doesn't try to protect ships in violation of the Ansarallah naval blockade on Israel.

^^ Israel says they were not aware that US would stop attacking Yemen.

^^ Trump says going to make an announcement on Thursday or Friday, calling it “one of the most important announcements that have been made in many years” about a “very important subject.” He is expected to travel to Saudi Arabia, Qatar, and the UAE starting May 13

Foreign Ministry Spokesperson Lin Jian’s Regular Press Conference on May 6, 2025

https://www.mfa.gov.cn/eng/xw/fyrbt/202505/t20250506_11616191.html

Global Times: The Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) on May 1 posted two Chinese-language videos on social media. CIA official said that the videos are “aimed at recruiting Chinese officials to steal secrets.” What’s China’s response?

Lin Jian: The U.S. has long been using all kinds of despicable methods to steal other countries’ secrets, interfere in their internal affairs and commit subversion. Such behavior severely violates international law and basic norms governing international relations, and seriously endangers international security and stability. The Chinese videos posted by the CIA on social media are another solid confession of what it does. The U.S. not only maliciously smears and attacks China, but also blatantly attempts to lure Chinese personnel, even government officials, to be their informants. This is a serious infringement on China’s national interest and pure political provocation. China strongly condemns it. We will take all measures necessary to resolutely push back infiltration and sabotage activities from overseas and defend national sovereignty, security and development interest.

AFP: U.S. President Donald Trump said in a recent interview with NBC that he would not drop tariffs on China in order to begin negotiations. First, how close are the two sides to formal trade talks? Second, is the U.S. lowering tariffs a prerequisite for China to engage in negotiations?

Lin Jian: The fact is, this tariff war is launched by the U.S. China’s position is consistent and clear: We will fight, if fight we must. Our doors are open, if the U.S. wants to talk. Recently the U.S. has repeatedly expressed the hope to engage in negotiation with China. There is no winner in a trade war or a tariff war. If a negotiated solution is truly what the U.S. wants, it should stop threatening and exerting pressure, and seek dialogue with China based on equality, respect and mutual benefit. 

AFP: Israel has approved a plan for expanded military operations in Gaza that the government said yesterday would include displacing most residents. What is China’s view of this plan?

Lin Jian: China is closely watching the situation of the Palestinian-Israeli conflict. We oppose Israel’s continued military operations in Gaza, and hope that parties will work to enable the continuous and effective implementation of the ceasefire agreement and return to the right track of political settlement.

InfraHaz is speaking in the video. It's a promotional video for ACP, party created by Jackson Hinkle and Haz al-Din.

 

80s, 90s rock band. You might remember songs such as "Losing my religion", "Everybody hurts", "The one I love", "Man on the Moon"

They made this music project in response to Trump cutting USAID funding.
