GEOPOLITICS | Trump Administration Moves to Preserve $133B in Tariff Revenue After Court Setback $DOT $APT The administration of Donald Trump is looking for ways to retain roughly $133 billion in tariff revenue, even after a ruling by the Supreme Court of the United States found the collections unlawful.
According to NS3.AI, officials are considering restructuring the tariff framework and limiting the scale of refunds owed to companies. Any such approach would likely draw further legal challenges.
The repayment process, if fully enforced, could stretch out over years — creating pressure on federal finances while prompting pushback from businesses and Democratic lawmakers.

🚨 **Geopolitical Heat: US & Iran Set for Crucial Geneva Talks Today – Nuclear Deal or Escalation?** 🚨 $APT $DOT US and Iranian officials are meeting in Geneva RIGHT NOW for the third round of indirect talks (mediated by Oman) on Iran's nuclear program.
This comes as President Trump ramps up pressure: - Massive US military buildup in the Middle East (biggest since 2003 Iraq invasion) with carriers, jets, troops. - Trump threatening limited strikes on Iran if no deal — after US bombed Iranian nuclear sites last June. - He claims Iran is restarting its nuclear weapons push and building missiles that could reach the US.
Iran's FM Abbas Araghchi says: "Iran will under no circumstances ever develop a nuclear weapon" and sees a "historic opportunity" for an agreement — but wants sanctions lifted in return.
Oman urges both sides to "go the extra mile" to finalize a deal.
Markets hate uncertainty — especially in the Middle East. Oil prices could spike on any bad news, and crypto often moves with global risk sentiment (risk-off = BTC dip potential?).
What do you think, Square fam? - Deal incoming? 🌍🤝 - Or escalation ahead? 💥 - How might this impact crypto & markets?

BREAKING: TRUMP TARGETS IRAN WITH NEW SANCTIONS ON OIL & MISSILE NETWORKS 🇺🇸🇮🇷 $DENT $POWER $ALLO The U.S. Treasury, under President Donald Trump, has slapped sanctions on over 30 individuals and entities tied to Iran’s oil sales, long-range missile programs, and military weapons projects. The measures focus on networks linked to the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) and Iran’s Defense Ministry (MODAFL). Sanctions aim to hit Tehran where it hurts — freezing assets, restricting access to global banking, blocking dollar transactions, and punishing companies that work with blacklisted groups. Simply put: cut off the money that fuels advanced weapons and military operations. Iran has long faced economic pressure, especially on its oil exports, the backbone of its revenue. Washington hopes that limiting oil income will slow down weapons development and regional military activity. Yet Tehran continues seeking alternative trade routes and partnerships to bypass restrictions. The big question: Can financial pressure alone force change? History shows sanctions usually weaken economies gradually, with effects taking months or years rather than days. For now, the squeeze is on. The world is watching closely to see if this strategy forces Tehran to the table — or just ratchets up tensions. 🌍⚖️🔥
Survivors Speak Out on Missing Epstein FBI Files ✨ $DENT $POWER Several Epstein survivors have reported that their own FBI statements are missing from the DOJ website. Jess Michaels, assaulted by Epstein at 22, said the missing documents make it feel like the DOJ is “gaslighting the entire country.” FBI “302” files are crucial—they record exactly what interviewees told agents and form the foundation of the investigation. Some of the missing files are connected to a Trump sexual assault allegation, though most identities remain redacted. This ongoing issue highlights how incomplete and complex the Epstein files remain, even years after his death.
