Companies warn Trump trade war is about to hit consumers

 

U.S. companies are speaking out against President Trump's escalating trade war with China, with major players such as Walmart saying tariffs are forcing them to raise prices on consumer goods for Americans.

 

The price hikes could complicate things for Trump as the 2020 campaign picks up. The president has repeatedly asserted that China, and not U.S. consumers, would pay the price of the trade war.

 

“There are some places where, as we get tariffs, we will take prices up,” Walmart Chief Financial Officer Brett Biggs said Thursday in an earnings call.

Weiner a No-Show At Sex Offender Registry Appointment

 

Recently-freed sex offender and former congressman Anthony Weiner failed to show up for his appointment to register as a sex offender, according to a Wednesday report.

 

“Sources told The Post that Weiner had arranged a noon appointment at the Sex Offender Monitoring Unit at Manhattan Supreme Court a block away, where officials waited through their lunch hour for him,” according to The New York Post.

 

Weiner reportedly has 10 days from his release to register with office.

 

Three months ago, Weiner’s 21-month sentence for sexting a 15-year-old North Carolina girl was shortened for good behavior. He was supposed to freed from prison in August, but good behavior landed in him in half-way house in February, which parlayed into a May release.
