US Revokes Visas For Brazilian Judge, His Allies Over Bolsonaro Prosecution U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio announced late Friday that he has revoked the visas of Brazilian Supreme Court Justice Alexandre de Moraes, his “allies on the court,” and their close relatives, citing an ongoing “political witch hunt” targeting former Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro and “censorship of protected expression in the United States.”The decision came hours after Brazil’s Supreme Court ordered police to search Bolsonaro’s home and attach an electronic monitor to the former leader’s ankle. Bolsonaro, who has already had his passport confiscated, is now also subject to a nightly and weekend curfew.Under the same order signed by de Moraes, Bolsonaro is barred from using social media, communicating with foreign diplomats, or getting close to foreign embassies. Earlier this year, he was denied a request to temporarily get his passport back so he could attend President Donald Trump’s second inauguration ceremony.Separately, de Moraes is leading an aggressive investigation into so-called “digital militias” accused of spreading disinformation and hate speech during the Bolsonaro administration.Last year, he temporarily banned X across the country after the Elon Musk-owned social media platform refused to remove certain accounts—many linked to Bolsonaro supporters—that de Moraes said had violated Brazilian law.As Bill Pan reports for The Epoch Times, Rubio condemned the court’s actions as politically motivated repression.“President Trump made clear that his administration will hold accountable foreign nationals who are responsible for censorship of protected expression in the United States,” Rubio said in a statement.“Brazilian Supreme Federal Court Justice Alexandre de Moraes’s political witch hunt against Jair Bolsonaro created a persecution and censorship complex so sweeping that it not only violates basic rights of Brazilians, but also extends beyond Brazil’s shores to target Americans,” he continued.“I have therefore ordered visa revocations for Moraes and his allies on the court, as well as their immediate family members, effective immediately.”De Moraes is presiding over Bolsonaro’s trial, in which the former president faces charges of an attempted coup related to the Jan. 8, 2023, protests at Brazil’s federal government buildings.Authorities allege the protests were part of a broader conspiracy to overturn the 2022 election results that brought Bolsonaro’s left-wing rival Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva to power.Bolsonaro has consistently denied wrongdoing or any involvement in the alleged coup plot. He has not been convicted, but is nonetheless barred from running for public office until 2030.His treatment has become a flashpoint in the escalating standoff between the Trump and Lula administrations. Last week, the U.S. president threatened to impose a 50 percent tariff on Brazilian goods unless Bolsonaro’s prosecution was dropped.Trump also cited Brazil’s non-tariff trade barriers in his decision to impose the new tariff rate. Meanwhile, Brazil is one of the roughly two dozen countries that run a trade deficit with the United States, while almost all other countries targeted by Trump’s tariff measures post large surpluses.“There will be no Tariff if Brazil, or companies within your Country, decide to build or manufacture product within the United States and, in fact, we will do everything possible to get approvals quickly, professionally, and routinely—in other words, in a matter of weeks,” Trump wrote.Following Friday’s police raid, Bolsonaro’s son, Senator Flávio Bolsonaro, took to social media to urge Trump to “suspend the 50 percent tariff on Brazilian imports and impose individual sanctions instead.”The post was later deleted.Lula has dismissed Trump’s accusations of unfair trade practices as false and denounced Rubio’s visa revocations as improper interference in Brazil’s judiciary.“The interference of one country in another’s justice system is unacceptable and violates the basic principles of respect and sovereignty among nations,” Lula wrote on X.“I am certain that no form of intimidation or threat, from anyone, will compromise the most important mission of national powers and institutions, which is to act permanently in defense and preservation of the Democratic Rule of Law.” Tyler DurdenSat, 07/19/2025 - 22:45

What a nice day Saturday but now changes will set in with round of scattered strong thunderstorms coming in Sunday afternoon and evening. The greatest threat being damaging wind gusts. A cold front sweeping through the region will help spark a line of storms between 2 and 10 p.m. Small hail is possible and localized flooding/water on the roads possible. These storms should move quickly to avoid higher flash flood potential. It will feel muggy through the day with highs in the 80s and dew points near 70 making it feel more like the low 90s. Behind the front, to start the week, a gorgeous stretch. Highs in the 70s to low 80s, low humidity, and cool nights dipping into the 50s.Pleasant days hold through midweek before heat and humidity return quickly by Thursday and especially Friday. Highs could push well into the 90s again, and another round of storms is possible sometime Friday or Friday night as the next front approaches. Most of the week looks dry though, making for a nice break from the unsettled pattern.

What Is Your Marginal Tax Rate? Authored by Anne Johnson via The Epoch Times (emphasis ours),The highest tax rate you'll pay on your income is called the marginal tax rate. The United States has a progressive tax system, which means that different tiers of income are taxed at varying rates.Rrraum/ShutterstockYou should know how the marginal rate works when planning your tax filings. This can be especially important if you receive bonuses from work or have other streams of income.Marginal Tax Rate Depends on Last Dollar of IncomeWhen people discuss what tax bracket they are in, they usually give a flat number. They may say they’re in the 22 percent tax bracket. But that isn’t entirely true. You may fall into the 22 percent tax bracket, but your total income isn’t taxed at 22 percent.When people state this, they are usually talking about their marginal tax rate. Your marginal tax rate is the percentage of tax you pay on your last dollar of income. This means it’s the last tax bracket into which your income falls.Keep in mind that with a progressive tax, you’re taxed at different rates according to how your income is tiered.Using a single filer as an example, the IRS tax brackets for tax year 2025 are:10 percent: for income $11,925 or less12 percent: for income over $11,92522 percent: for income over $48,47524 percent: for income over $103,35032 percent: for income over $197,30035 percent: for income over $250,52537 percent: for income over $626,350An example of the marginal tax would be using single filer Frank with a taxable income of $50,000 (deductions have already been applied in this example).Frank would be taxed:10 percent on the first $11,925, which equals $1,192.5012 percent on the next $36,550, which equals $4,38622 percent on the remaining $1,525, which equals $335.50Frank’s marginal tax rate is 22 percent because it’s the rate applied to his last dollar of income. That 22 percent doesn’t apply to all his income.It’s important to know your marginal tax rate. It can help you make decisions concerning bonuses, investments, or other earnings. The marginal rate will inform you of the top tier of your tax rate.What Is the Effective Tax Rate?The effective tax rate is the average rate you’ll pay on all your income. It gives you a more accurate picture of your tax burden.To find your effective rate, divide your total tax liability by your total taxable income and multiply by 100.So, Frank, with $50,000 in income and a $5,914 tax liability, would have an effective tax rate of 11.83 percent. In other words, 11.83 percent of Frank’s income would go toward paying federal taxes.Can Tax Credits Lower Your Marginal Tax Rate?Tax credits like the Child Tax Credit will not lower your marginal tax rate. The Child Tax Credit under the One Big Beautiful Bill Act for 2025 is $2,200—with adjustments for inflation—according to the U.S. House Committee on Ways and Means.This tax credit isn’t used to lower your income; it reduces your tax liability. So, using Frank’s tax liability amount of $5,914, he could apply the tax credit and now owe $3,714.How to Lower Your Marginal Tax RateThere are several ways to lower your marginal tax rate. Start with maximizing your retirement contributions. You can lower your taxable income dollar-for-dollar with yearly contributions to a 401(k), a traditional IRA, or other retirement accounts.For example, the maximum 401(k) limit in 2025, according to the IRS, is $23,500, and the traditional IRA limit is $7,000.Health savings accounts (HSAs) can also help lower your taxable income. According to the IRS, an individual with self-only coverage under a high deductible health plan can contribute a maximum of $4,300 to an HSA.If you expect a large bonus at the end of the year, you may want to consider deferring it to next year. This especially works if you anticipate an income reduction in the future. You may want to ask to defer a severance if you are laid off. In fact, any payments that you could defer may help reduce your marginal tax rate.If you must take a required minimum distribution (RMD), which could affect your marginal tax rate, consider donating to charity. Eligible IRA owners can make a qualified charitable distribution (QCD) up to $108,000 per individual for tax year 2025, according to the IRS. Payments must be made directly from the IRA to the qualified charity in order to avoid the amount being applied to your income.Marginal Tax Rate Determines Additional Amount PaidThe marginal tax rate helps you think about future earnings. For example, if you are considering taking a new job with a large pay raise, it may push you into a higher marginal tax rate. You should know what that will be so you can understand the tax implications.Likewise, if you are anticipating selling something for a profit, knowing your marginal tax rate can help you determine when to sell.The Epoch Times copyright © 2025.

Bank earnings in Europe and a rate decision from the ECB will dominate investors’ attention this week. Financials reporting this week include Unicredit, Deutsche Bank, BNP Paribas, Lloyds Banking Group and Natwest. The European Central Bank is seen as being “well-positioned to wait” before acting on interest rates.Next week, the CNBC teams are back on the road – and it’s all about the banks and the ECB. From Frankfurt to Milan, and Paris to London, the financials are in focus.Banking bellwethersThe markets seem to be banking on the financial sector to keep up the positive earnings momentum this quarter. Citi described the first quarter as “remarkably resilient,” with analysts now expecting Stoxx 600 earnings-per-share growth to turn positive year-on-year this quarter.Much of that optimism is centered on the big banks, while other sectors like luxury, autos and energy have been plagued by earnings downgrades.Unicredit kicks things off on Wednesday. The Italian banking giant will try to keep investors focused on the numbers, rather than its M&A ambitions. While its moves around Commerzbank have seen it increase its equity stake to 20%, Saxo Bank analysts highlight the uncertainty around its potential takeover of Banco BPM, after an Italian court blocked the move until further conditions are met. The stock is up over 50% so far this year, providing some cheer for CEO Andrea Orcel as he battles to keep his expansion plans on track.French financial BNP Paribas — the euro zone’s largest lender by assets — reports earnings on Thursday.Last quarter, the bank soared past expectations driven by performance at its investment bank, but revised its profitability target slightly lower.On the same day, attention will turn to Frankfurt for Deutsche Bank’s latest set of numbers. The German lender logged its best profit in 14 years last quarter, benefiting from increased trading volumes around the market volatility. CEO Christian Sewing told CNBC in June that he sees an opportunity for Europe to invest more in its own defense sector as a key growth area.The waiting gameFor macro-watchers, the highlight of the week in Europe will come from the European Central Bank. President Christine Lagarde and her fellow policymakers are expected to keep rates on hold at 2% on Thursday. But there is a BIG catch...U.S. President Donald Trump’s tariff threats are not expected to derail this meeting’s outcome, according to Reuters, citing five ECB governing council member sources. But if Trump does push ahead with 30% tariffs on EU imports, there is a broad assumption the ECB will cut rates in response.Investors will have until Sept. 11 to assess the impact, as the ECB breaks for the summer after this week’s meeting.Inflation situationIn terms of the underlying economic conditions, Deutsche Bank warns that European inflation risks are “still being underestimated, with a remarkable complacency across key assets,” with the tariff impact yet to fully trickle through.The bank’s macro strategist also told CNBC’s Squawk Box Europe that the Aug. 1 tariff deadline for negotiations between the U.S. and EU sets the stage for a late outcome to trigger a “very sharp market reaction.”

Closing Of Epstein Investigation Unpopular With Voters On Thursday, U.S. President Donald Trump ordered his Attorney General Pam Bondi to release files related to the Jeffrey Epstein investigation, including Grand Jury testimony, for which a judge's approval is necessary, however.The move came after more than a week of controversy around the topic and Trump trying to deflect the uproar that would just not die down. Pressure mounted yesterday after the Wall Street Journal published a previously unreleased letter by Trump on the occasion of Epstein's 50th birthday, including the drawing of a naked woman, whicvh Trump has said is fake and is now suing for defamation.Despite campaign promises by Trump to release certain files pertaining to the investigation into deceases society figure and sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, his administration in early July declared that these documents, a client list specifically, did not exist and that it believed that Epstein had taken his own life in prison.As Statista's Katharina Buchholz reports, the announcement alienated Trump's base which for years has been fed a narrative around an Epstein conspiracy, including by Trump and people now in his administration.The conspiracy claims that documents implicating prominent figures in sex crimes have been held back for years and that Epstein was murdered as a cover-up.Attorney General Pam Bondi had as recently as February referred to the list as existing, while Trump confidant Elon Musk in June tweeted that Trump was implicated in the files.In July, only 17 percent of U.S. voters approved of the handling of the Epstein files, the lowest among eight surveyed issues including immigration, trade, the economy, the Russia-Ukraine and the Israel-Hamas conflict.You will find more infographics at StatistaAll issued had approval ratings under 50 percent.

EPA Slashes 23 Percent Of Its Workforce, Eliminating Scientific Research Arm Authored by Aldgra Fredly via The Epoch Times (emphasis ours),The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) announced on Friday that it will cut about 23 percent of its workforce and eliminate its research and development office as part of the agency’s restructuring effort.The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency in Washington on Jan. 4, 2024. Madalina Vasiliu/The Epoch TimesThe agency stated that it expects its workforce to reduce from 16,155 to 12,448 employees, noting that many have opted to resign through voluntary early retirement and a deferred resignation program.The layoffs will affect the Research and Development Office, according to its statement. The agency said the restructuring effort is expected to help it save about $748.8 million after completion.The EPA said it plans to create an Applied Science and Environmental Solutions Office that will enable it to focus on research and science “more than ever before,” placing them “at the forefront of rulemakings and technical assistance to states.”EPA administrator Lee Zeldin said the reorganization is intended to ensure the agency is “better equipped than ever to deliver on our core mission of protecting human health and the environment while Powering the Great American Comeback” under the Trump administration.“This reduction in force will ensure we can better fulfill that mission while being responsible stewards of your hard-earned tax dollars,” he said.The Office of Research and Development functions as the EPA’s scientific research arm, according to the agency’s website. The office carries out “leading-edge research” that “informs agency decisions and supports the emerging needs of EPA stakeholders, including the agency’s state, tribal, and community partners,” it stated.Critics said cutting the office’s workforce will affect the EPA’s ability to respond to those risks properly.Rep. Valerie Foushee (D-N.C.) said on March 18 that the office is “vital to understanding and addressing environmental risks.”“The Trump Administration’s plan to dissolve the EPA’s Office of Research and Development and lay-off over 1,000 scientists is yet another step in their scheme to fully gut this agency,” Foushee said.The EPA had previously announced that it planned to enhance its scientific and research efforts within program offices to address its “statutory obligations and mission essential functions,” particularly within its air, water, and chemical offices, according to its statement.The announcement followed the Supreme Court’s decision on July 8 to lift a lower court ruling that had blocked the Trump administration from proceeding with mass layoffs of federal workers and an overhaul of federal agencies.Aside from the EPA, the State Department has also announced plans to proceed with restructuring efforts following the Supreme Court ruling. State Department spokesperson Tammy Bruce said on July 10 that the reorganization plan is now “moving into implementation,” but declined to provide a specific timeline for when layoffs will occur.Zachary Stieber contributed to this report.
