As part of his new trade war with China, Trump suspended the de minimus exemption for imports from China. This exempts imports of "low-value" shipments -- under $800 -- from tariffs. Why was this created? The first reason given by the NFTC is that: 1/2.

In a bold move, Kerry Co Co have renamed the Atlantic to the Kerry Ocean, citing “it was ours anyway.” Locals suggest maps will now feature Dingle as the Earth's central meridian. (Stolen from Kerry News who seem to exist only on FB.)
