President Trump announced Saturday he would impose a 100% tariff on BRICS countries if they create a new currency or back another currency other than the U.S. Dollar. “The idea that the BRICS Countries are trying to move away from the Dollar while we stand by and watch is OVER. We require a commitment from these Countries that they will neither create a new BRICS Currency, nor back any other Currency to replace the mighty U.S. Dollar or, they will face 100% Tariffs, and should expect to say goodbye to selling into the wonderful U.S. Economy,” Trump said. “They can go find another ‘sucker!’ There is no chance that the BRICS will replace the U.S. Dollar in International Trade, and any Country that tries should wave goodbye to America,” he added.

BRICS was originally identified to highlight investment opportunities,” Wikipedia states. The 2024 BRICS Summit occurred in Kazan, Russia, from October 22 to 24. The event included the five namesake countries (Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa) and the first meeting for new members: Egypt, Ethiopia, Iran, and the United Arab Emirates. From The New York Times: BRICS now includes countries representing almost half the world’s population and more than 35 percent of global economic output, adjusted by purchasing power. The conference is intended to present a hefty showcase of economic might but also entice new countries into a coalition Russia hopes to build that would form a new world order not dominated by the West. “This summit is about Putin punching back,” said Alexander Gabuev, director of the Carnegie Russia Eurasia Center in Berlin. Mr. Putin presents his country’s war in Ukraine as “the spearhead of destroying the old world order and helping to build a new one,” Mr. Gabuev said. “And BRICs is the most potent and representative structure of this new world order,” he added. That was a message Mr. Putin emphasized at a meeting of officials and businessmen last week in Moscow ahead of the summit.

BRICS Creates New Payment System, Will Compete Against US Dollar Per Investing News Network: The BRICS nations, originally composed of Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa, are looking to establish a new reserve currency backed by a basket of their respective currencies. All eyes were recently on the 2024 BRICS Summit that took place October 22 to 24 in Kazan, Russia. The BRICS nations were widely expected to continue their discussions of creating a potentially gold-backed currency, known as the "Unit," as an alternative to the US dollar. The potential BRICS currency would allow these nations to assert their economic independence while competing with the existing international financial system. The current system is dominated by the US dollar, which accounts for about 90 percent of all currency trading. Until recently, nearly 100 percent of oil trading was conducted in US dollars; however, in 2023, one-fifth of oil trades were reportedly made using non-US dollar currencies. Central to this ongoing situation is the US trade war with China, as well as US sanctions on China and Russia. Should the BRICS nations establish a new reserve currency, it would likely significantly impact the US dollar, potentially leading to a decline in demand, or what's known as de-dollarization. In turn, this would have implications for the United States and global economies.  

When President Trump retakes office in January, he regains the power to grant pardons. According to reports, New York City Mayor Eric Adams, a Democrat, could be among the individuals hoping to receive a pardon from Trump. Adams is the first sitting NYC mayor to be indicted on federal charges. A 57-page indictment accuses the Democrat mayor of conspiracy, wire fraud and bribery charges.

It goes back a long time. Well, I had the same thing they got, they went way before the statute of limitations. So, I wish him well.” During an appearance on CNN last week, anchor Wolf Blitzer repeatedly pressed Adams on whether he has discussed a pardon with Trump, given that the mayor has repeatedly emphasized he wants to work with the president-elect. The mayor deflected and said his legal team will handle his case. “I don’t go into private conversations, but that is not on my agenda,” Adams said of a pardon. "People were not happy with me. It doesn’t have to be the president, because there are a lot of other people unhappy that I fought for this city,” he said. https://t.co/ijUMCZu5je — The Washington Times (@WashTimes) November 29, 2024 WATCH: JUST IN: NYC Mayor Eric Adams could look for a pardon from President Trump – The Hill Adams was only indicted after criticizing the Biden administration's handling of the border crisis. Does he deserve one? "This issue will DESTROY New York City," he said last year. pic.twitter.com/ZgC4NRlRYm — Eric Daugherty (@EricLDaugh) November 30, 2024 WCAX reports: The former president faced his own charges from the Department of Justice and vocally criticized the agency, accusing them of acting on the Biden administration’s orders. After pleading not guilty, Mayor Eric Adams is echoing those sentiments, saying the indictment comes after he criticized the White House for its handling of the migrant crisis in New York City. “Mayor Adams has been treated pretty badly. You know, when he said that this whole thing with the migrants coming into New York, this is just not sustainable. He said it very nicely. I said, well, he’s gonna be indicted by these lunatics. A year later he got indicted,” said Trump. It’s not clear if President-elect Trump would use his power to rescue the high-profile Democrat from the indictment.
