China Just Did One Thing That Means War With The United States - Duration: 3:10.

One of Donald Trump's campaign promises was to stand up to China.

That is one promise he followed through to a tee.

But now China is sick of it, and just did one thing that means war with the United States.

Since being elected, there is perhaps no promise that he took as seriously as standing up to

China.

For many years he has been sounding the alarm about trade deals with China that have ripped

off the United States.

So in the most "America First" fashion possible, President Trump has stopped talking

and made a major threat to slap a ten percent tariff on $200 billion worth of Chinese goods.

To anyone who supports Donald Trump's economic nationalism, this is a great move that undoubtedly

would lead towards both fairer deals and further U.S. manufacturing.

For China, and the anti-Trump crowd it is disastrous.

For China, it will undoubtedly harm their economy, which is the point.

To the anti-Trumpers, they believe it will create immense harm to the U.S. economy because

of increased costs on Chinese goods.

China is so upset about President Trump's threats that they have threatened to retaliate

against Trump for launching what they believe, probably correctly, is a trade war.

The Chinese Ministry of Commerce said in a statement on their website that "[t]he United

States has initiated a trade war," before threatening to fight back against President

Trump.

Fighting back against President Trump in a trade war would end badly for China.

China benefits much more heavily from trading with the United States than the United States

does trading with China.

In classic "Art of The Deal" fashion President Donald Trump knows this.

After all, he wrote the go-to book on deals.

One of the central tenets of Trump's book is "using your leverage."

And in this case, President Donald Trump has $200 billion of leverage against China.

That leverage will eventually force China to come to the negotiating table.

This is something that no other President was willing to do.

The most sure-fire way to create more jobs in the United States is to encourage more

manufacturing.

In the past, there wasn't much incentive to manufacture U.S. goods, and China had an

unfair advantage in the market.

It is hard to promote free trade with a country that has an unfair advantage.

That's why President Trump is so supportive of "fair trade," which puts American interests

first.

This is a stark contrast to the strategy by former President Barack Obama, who was fine

with foreign countries having freer trade with the United States than domestic manufacturers,

who were tacked with heavy regulations.

During his eight-year reign, China had it made, while Americans were forced to struggle

for work.

But thankfully Donald Trump was elected President, who believes the exact opposite of Obama and

is making that clear with his policies.

And the fact that the unemployment rate is at near-historic lows shows that Trump's

plans are working.

News Wrap: States can enforce online sales tax, high court rules - Duration: 4:00.

JUDY WOODRUFF: And we will have a conversation with an immigration judge near the border

in Texas after the news summary.

In the day's other news: The U.S. Supreme Court ruled that states may legally force

online shoppers to pay sales tax; the 5-to-4 decision overturned two longstanding precedents

that allowed online retailers not to collect sales tax in many cases.

A number of states argued that, as a result, they have been losing billions of dollars

in revenue each year.

In Israel, the wife of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu was charged with fraud today.

Sara Netanyahu is accused of using some $100,000 in public funds to pay for meals from restaurants

and celebrity chefs.

Her lawyers call the charges -- quote -- "baseless and delusional."

The prime minister also faces a series of corruption investigations.

Turkey is headed toward a crucial election Sunday and the president today appealed for

support.

Recep Tayyip Erdogan wants a new term with greatly expanded powers.

Early voting is already under way, but polls show the presidential and parliamentary races

are tightening.

Erdogan's opponents are warning against one-man rule.

Back in this country, the Trump administration proposed merging the U.S. Departments of Education

and Labor.

Budget Director Mick Mulvaney spoke at today's Cabinet meeting, and laid out an extensive

plan for reorganizing the government.

He called for creating a single Department of Education and the Work Force.

MICK MULVANEY, White House Budget Director: We think that makes tremendous sense, because

what are they both doing?

They're doing the same thing.

They're trying to get people ready for the work force.

Sometimes, it's education.

Sometimes, it's vocational training.

But they're all doing the same thing, so why not put them in the same place?

JUDY WOODRUFF: The plan also would create a single food safety agency, among other changes.

Many of them will first need congressional approval.

The U.S. House of Representatives narrowly approved a new farm bill today that sets tougher

work requirements for food stamp recipients.

The larger bill renews a broad array of crop and nutrition programs.

It now moves to the Senate, which favors a more modest measure without the tougher food

stamp provisions.

The CEO of technology company Intel has resigned over a consensual relationship with an employee.

The company said that Brian Krzanich violated its non-fraternization policy.

It gave no details.

Krzanich joined Intel in 1982.

He became CEO in 2013.

Trade tensions again kept Wall Street on edge today.

The Dow Jones industrial average lost 196 points to close at 24461.

The Nasdaq fell 68 points, and the S&P 500 slipped 17.

From New Zealand today, word of a happy arrival.

Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern gave birth to a baby girl.

Later, she posted a picture with her seven-pound newborn alongside her partner, Clarke Gayford.

The late Pakistani Prime Minister Benazir Bhutto was the only other world leader to

give birth while in office.

And on a sadder note, Koko, the famed gorilla who knew sign language, has died at a preserve

in California.

She was born at the San Francisco Zoo, and learned to sign as part of a project with

Stanford University.

Her capacity to communicate and show emotion gained renown, and was featured in documentaries.

Koko the gorilla was 46 years old.

Still to come on the "NewsHour": how the immigration debate is playing out in court; Navajos seek

to draw new political lines by rewriting the election map; and much more.

Supreme Court rules states can collect sales tax for online purchases nationwide

Online shoppers could find costs going up after the Supreme Court did away Thursday with a decades-old precedent limiting the ability of states to collect sales tax on certain out-of-state Internet purchases. The 5-4 ruling called the current rules "unsound and incorrect.

Currently, businesses shipping a product to another state where it does not have a physical presence -- a store, office or warehouse -- are not forced to collect that states sales tax.

In giving a victory to the states, the high court said that rule is outdated.

"When the day-to-day functions of marketing and distribution in the modern economy are considered, it is all the more evident that the physical presence rule is artificial in its entirety," Justice Anthony Kennedy wrote.

The current regulation "allows remote sellers to escape an obligation to remit a lawful state tax is unfair and unjust," added Kennedy.

"It is unfair and unjust to those competitors, both local and out of state, who must remit the tax; to the consumers who pay the tax; and to the states that seek fair enforcement of the sales tax."         .

A coalition of small business owners, many offering their online goods from home offices, say their profits would evaporate if forced to comply with complex tax rules in all 50 states.

Yet a majority of the states say they are losing billions in revenue, and they are supported by many large, so-called brick-and-mortar retailers like Wal-Mart that do pay sales tax, regardless of whether their sales are done in stores or online.

E-commerce now makes up about 10 percent of U.S. retail sales, according to the Commerce Department.

South Dakota is leading the legal charge, passing a law requiring the collection of sales tax on Internet vendors with at least 200 yearly transactions or $100,000 in sales to its residents.

Forty-one states back the effort, saying the problem is growing worse as e-commerce continues to grow nationwide.

They argue tax-collection software makes it easier for retailers big and small to comply with their tax obligations, which vary widely from state to state, and product to product.

But many online sellers, such as Etsy or EBay, that serve as a third party portal for thousands of small homegrown businesses that do not pay sales taxes, point to confusing tax rules that could expose them to costly audits for any revenue shortfall.

As an example, lawyers for the online retailers told the high court that in Illinois, a Snickers bar costs more in taxes than a Twix bar, since food items containing flour are not treated as candy for tax purposes.

Customers in most cases are supposed to pay the tax themselves, but both sides of the debate admit few actually do. .

And several justices, in an intense hour of oral arguments on Tuesday, expressed concern about overturning the precedent, despite the fact it was decided before the digital age.

Some on the bench said Congress refusal over the years to act on its own was a sign the status quo should be preserved.

Amazon, by far the nations largest online seller, is not a party to the case, since it now has a physical presence in many states, with warehouses, and pays the taxes.

The high court has said for more than 50 years in various rulings that states cannot collect taxes from sellers without a physical presence in those states. That precedent was preserved in a key 1992 ruling.

Congress two decades ago exempted most online sellers. But as the e-commerce platform has evolved, more of the larger online retailers have begun paying sales taxes -- about 90 percent of the revenue owed.

Supreme Court allows states to collect sales taxes on more online transactions

WASHINGTON -- A closely divided Supreme Court upended the nations Internet marketplace Thursday, ruling that states can collect sales taxes from most online retailers.

The decision, which overturns an earlier Supreme Court precedent, will boost state revenues at the expense of consumers and sellers who have avoided sales taxes in the past.

Justice Anthony Kennedy wrote the 5-4 decision, joined by Justices Clarence Thomas, Ruth Bader Ginsburg, Samuel Alito and Neil Gorsuch.

Chief Justice John Roberts dissented, saying the decision should be left to Congress, and was joined by Justices Stephen Breyer, Sonia Sotomayor and Elena Kagan.

Kennedy said the courts 25- and 50-year-old precedents requiring sales tax collection only from physically present businesses represent a judicially created tax shelter for businesses that decide to limit their physical presence and still sell their goods and services to a states consumers.

Faced with a South Dakota law that exempted online retailers with less than $100,000 in annual sales or 200 annual transactions in the state, the justices nevertheless opened the door to states that may want to collect sales taxes from smaller sellers.

Kennedy said Congress could step in to set limits.

If some small businesses with only de minimus contacts seek relief from collection systems thought to be a burden, those entities may still do so under other theories, Kennedy said.

But the potential for problems, he said, cannot justify retaining this artificial, anachronistic rule that deprives states of vast revenues from major businesses..

The high court ruled in 1967 and again in 1992 that companies without a physical presence in a state did not have to collect sales taxes.

But those rulings applied mostly to mail-order catalog companies.

In 1992, Amazon had not yet begun selling books out of Jeff Bezos garage.

In its challenge, South Dakota noted that times have changed, with online sales growing at four times the rate of total retail sales.

As a result, state and local governments in 45 states lose billions of dollars annually in taxes.

(Alaska, Delaware, Montana, New Hampshire and Oregon do not have sales taxes.).

In response, online sellers Wayfair, Overstock.com and Newegg, said online retailers could face some 12,000 local tax jurisdictions if the Supreme Court sided with the states.

They warned of economic chaos -- at least until Congress steps in.

In his dissent, Roberts warned that the decision could detract from E-commerces significant and vibrant part of our national economy.

This court should not act on this important question of current economic policy, solely to expiate a mistake it made over 50 years ago, Roberts said.

When the court ruled in 1967 and 1992 that Illinois and North Dakota could not squeeze sales taxes from sellers with no presence in those states, there wasnt nearly as much at stake.

Now consumers do nearly 10% of their shopping online, a share that will grow exponentially in the future.

Congress protected those Internet sellers in 1998 legislation that has since been made permanent.

Then in 2000, a national commission urged states to simplify their tax systems as a precursor to taxing remote sellers. Twenty-four states eventually did so, but the nations largest states, with 70% of the U.S.

population, did not. .

Stymied by the Supreme Court rulings and the Internet Tax Freedom Act, states have done their best to collect taxes on residents out-of-state purchases.

That has created a patchwork of laws. More than 20 states define a sellers physical presence as including any affiliated website.

Ten states require out-of-state sellers to notify buyers and inform states of the unpaid sales taxes.

The Supreme Court in 2015 unanimously upheld Colorados law requiring those notices and reports.

Most of the top 20 online sellers already collect taxes in nearly all states, either because they have added local showrooms or warehouses, or because of state laws.

The top 100 retail sellers remit about 90% of the taxes owed. .

But many smaller online retailers are women, minorities, veterans and people with disabilities who have taken advantage of the protections granted by the Supreme Court and Congress over the years.

The typical retailer on eBay sells between $10,000 and $500,000 annually, with customers in more than 300 tax jurisdictions.

Etsys sellers are even smaller: Nearly eight in 10 are sole proprietors, nearly nine in 10 are women, and nearly all are based in homes.

Average annual sales: $1,710.
