Brazil's Lula Just Got a Huge Gift From the White House
It was only a matter of time: After largely ignoring Brazil during his first six months in office, US President Donald Trump has finally erupted into the country's combustive politics. Trump on Wednesday announced a 50% tariff on Brazilian goods starting Aug. 1st, linking it to the legal troubles of his friend and conservative ally Jair Bolsonaro by saying the higher levies were 'due in part to Brazil's insidious attacks on Free Elections.'

Stock Market Today: Dow Futures Fall After Trump Unveils 50% Brazil Tariff — Live Updates
President Trump unveiled a 50% tariff on Brazilian goods starting Aug. 1, late Wednesday, the highest levy announced this week in a flurry of missives to foreign leaders. Diverting from the form letter sent to other countries, Trump used his Brazil message to criticize the country's legal case against Jair Bolsonaro, Brazil's former leader. The tariffs, Trump wrote, would be based in part on Brazil's "insidious attacks on Free Elections" and its treatment of Bolsonaro, which Trump called "an international disgrace." Early Thursday, stock futures fell modestly, while copper prices rose after Trump said 50% duties on imports of the metal would take effect next month. Prices for the metal hit record highs Tuesday, when Trump first announced the levy.
