Senate Democrats Draft Bill to Block Trump's European Tariffs Over Greenland

Senate Democrats are drafting legislation to prevent Donald Trump from imposing higher tariffs on European nations that oppose U.S. annexation of Greenland, Bloomberg reports. Trump announced on Truth Social that starting Feb. 1, goods from Denmark, Norway, Sweden, France, Germany, the U.K., the Netherlands and Finland would face an additional 10% tariff, rising to 25% on June 1. Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer criticized the proposed tariffs as harmful to the U.S. economy and alliances, while Trump said the levies would remain until an agreement is reached on a "complete and total purchase of Greenland."
