The US has prevented the UN/IMO from imposing a massive carbon tax on international shipping. Australia naturally supported the tax

Australia voted to support the massive shipping tax

In what insiders are calling the biggest U.S. pushback against the United Nations since the Cold War, President Trump’s team has successfully stopped the U.N.’s global carbon tax — a sweeping “Net Zero” scheme that critics slammed as “taxation without representation.”

Former President Donald Trump giving a speech at a podium with a serious expression.

The tax, crafted by the International Maritime Organization (IMO), a U.N. body based in London, would have charged shipowners up to $380 per metric ton of carbon emissions, creating an estimated $10–12 billion annual fund controlled by U.N. bureaucrats. The measure was set to pass this week — until Trump intervened.

John Konrad, CEO of gCaptain and a U.S. Merchant Marine ship captain, revealed the behind-the-scenes chaos in a viral post on X:

“I can’t share the details on how Mike Waltz, 32nd U.S. Ambassador to the U.N., & Secretary Marco Rubio have, in just a few days, organized the greatest opposition to U.N. policy since the Cold War and blocked this U.N. Carbon Tax.”

London yet again

Konrad described the fight as nothing short of a diplomatic street brawl:

“It was a knife fight to the end. I’ve been in this industry for 30 years and I’ve never seen anything like it. You just don’t say NO to these guys. It’s unheard of.”

According to multiple industry insiders, the opposition came together almost overnight — fueled by Trump’s Truth Social post, which reportedly sent “shockwaves through the building” at U.N. headquarters in London.

“NOBODY expected it,” one U.N. delegate admitted. “The Secretary General Arsenio Dominguez looked like a deer in the headlights this morning.”

Analysts say the move was a direct blow to European globalist elites who had hoped to use the carbon tax as a slush fund for climate NGOs and “just transition” projects in developing nations.

“Absolutely none of the maritime experts I interviewed thought the U.S. could pull this off,” Konrad said. “Zero. Massive amounts of money, NGO influence, diplomatic threat, and media manipulation were behind this — and the American media, except gCaptain and Fox News, was dead silent.”

The U.N. tax was widely seen as an attempt to bypass national legislatures, forcing nations to pay into a “Net Zero Fund” controlled by U.N. staff — sparking outrage from shipping executives, U.S. policymakers, and industry veterans who called it “global taxation without representation.”

Now, with the plan in ruins, one thing is clear: the Trump administration just dealt a crushing defeat to the climate bureaucracy that’s been quietly tightening its grip on global trade.

Promises made. Promises kept.

It comes as no surprise that Australia supported this devastating global tax which would have placed the cost of international shipping out of reach, especially when Australia imports most of its goods.

Australia was among the countries that voted in favor of a draft scheme for a global carbon tax on international shipping, according to The Sydney Morning Herald.  The tax is intended to start in 2028 and is designed to either encourage ships to use lower-emission fuels or pay a fee. The Australian Broadcasting Corporation reported that the government supported the scheme, even as it faced opposition from other countries.

The City of London has been dealt a mortal blow, just another in the ongoing war against Deep State.

  1. Hahaha…and this doesn’t mean anything either either…

    “Freemasonry is deceptive and fraudulent…Its promise is light—its performance is darkness”.

    “I do conscientiously and sincerely believe that the Order of Freemasonry, if not the greatest, is one of the greatest moral and political evils under which the Union is now laboring.”

    “Masonry ought forever to be abolished. It is wrong – essentially wrong – a seed of evil which can never produce any good.” – John Quincy Adams

    “Freemasonry is a Jewish establishment, whose history, grades, official appointments, passwords, and explanations are Jewish from beginning to end.”
    Rabbi Isaac Mayer Wise

    “The great ideal of Judaism, is that the whole world shall be imbued with Jewish teaching and that in a Universal Brotherhood of Nations -a greater Judaism in fact–all the separate races and religions shall disappear.”
    The Jewish World Feb. 9, 1883

    “Tikkun Olam”= “The Great Work” of Freemasonry.

    That is: “the world is broken and defective” until the World Jewish Utopia is actuated and imposed. And anything that rejects or resists that mission is the “ultimate evil” and unpardonable affront to (their) “God”(the devil) and deserving of annihilation.

    You WILL agree that 2+2=5 or anything they say it is, or else.

    Just because they occasionally say it equals 4 doesn’t really mean anything…except a momentary attempt to gain credibility in the eyes of those who should know better.

    “The shocking never-before-told story of the infiltration and subversion of the American nationalist movement”.

    “This is a grotesque but accurate representation of the vile, ugly and brutal Bolshevik revolutionary, Leon Trotsky, whose intellectual disciples evolved into the ruling elite in hard-line Zionist “neo-conservative” circles in America today.”

    “How “left wing” Trotskyite elements rose to power in the United States by infil- trating the “right wing”—while working to eviscerate traditional American nationalism—is part of the amazing panorama outlined in The Judas Goats.”

  3. Thank you Cairns News for posting such immensely important decisions …..
    I am without television for about 35 years …..

  4. Commenter cyberpunk
    All quite true how you say and driven by “BRICS” since all the US sanctions, wars and money printing including theft of Russian investments by NATO states, has finally worn thin on the 2nd world, the US would go broke if not for Trump policies, and I think it was the plan to make it go broke, as is the plan here, with replacement theory $2/hour.
    Trump cannot afford a war and doesn’t seem interested so he has become an avid peacenik and the rabid extreme far left has not much to complain about of this strategy so they complain about ICE.
    Trump tarriffs to Australia are the precise equivalent of our GST on US imports, the difference is Australians get ripped off very badly by the government, by having to charge GST and pay, for example a self-employed tradie has to charge an extra 10% on top of his invoice while an employee of the government gets 10%+ poured into his superannuation.
    Where does the government employee’s superannuation come from, you may well ask, it sloshes around in the tax system and might be traced back to the tradie’s tax bill. The tradie is too old to work in his 50s while government employee collects super right up to late 60s.
    Australians who right or wrong think they have a birthright in fact have nothing, the Americans have a much better deal, if Trump can get the sticky fingers of the banksters and Euro nobility out, it will be even better. The 13th amendment was changed at the time of the Civil War from a clause against the nobility of any sort including esq. and BAR member, to a fake clause basically repeating the constitutional “all men are equal”, these days it would have to be all men, women and indeterminate” including I suppose a dog or cat that thinks it’s human could call its lawyer if it wasn’t allowed to sit on the couch and watch TV.
    Australians are copping communism by stealth, initiative is punished by regulation and tax, welfare dependence is encouraged, resources are given away for free to companies presumably owned by the real owners of this place.

  5. Two MASSIVELY SIGNIFICANT stories in just One Week! =

    1. “Trump’s team has successfully stopped the U.N.’s global carbon tax” (this article) where Net Zero is based on fraudulent, politicised science rather then TRUE science, where Carbon is ESSENTIAL to LIFE & NOT a POLLUTANT.

    2. “Trump outmaneuveres decades of British imperial policies” Cairns News 16 October 2025. A comment says “Promethean Action points the finger directly at the World Bank, IMF, and other globalist banks, keeping people perpetually poor and dependent.” The Life and Debt movie (2001) clearly shows that under globalist bank control, Jamaica was exploited by pure unadulterated financial gain. Yet The Power of Community (2006), shows how nearby Cuba THRIVED with ZERO globalist support, despite the “collapse” of Soviet Union support!

    Make no mistake, there’s a MASSIVE push-back on Vatican-controlled British Empire colonial control that’s crippled economies and fostered wars for centuries. The Square Mile of London is the Crown of England, 10 square miles of Washington D.C is the military centre, and the independent State of the Vatican the religious centre. Within a trinity of sovereignty, the old blood line Monarchs promote an intentional and premeditated undertaking to maintain and expand ignorance and confusion.

    There’s a GREAT polarity on either Love or Hate Trump, are you one of those? Well, it’s Time to Wake Up, one CANNOT end Tyranny via compliance! In this case it’s about Taxation & how the masses are brainwashed into thinking it’s necessary. So it’s purely a Consciousness issue, & only when masses of people Change their Mind so to speak will the Tyranny end.

    When abuse is great, a Pacifist approach (like marches, rallies, protest & petitions) will NOT work, although they do gauge unrest & support. At some point, you may be asked to ACT on these matters, not just be an innocent bystander. There’s nothing “innocent” about that!

    Be assured, however, that a Great Awakening is under way. Keep Re-Minding each other, so that one may Re-Member to be part of the Whole, a Spirit having a physical experience, not the other way around!

  6. The academics also disseminated the so called ‘tariff inflation deception.’ The ignoramuses took the bait hook, line and sinker.

    On October 25, FED Chair, Jerome Powell, openly admitted that Trump’s tariffs are working. None of the ‘inflation myths’ were true, – they were lies pushed by academics.

    This is what Jerome Powell actually said, – ‘The Federal Government collecting a good chunk of revenue, three or four hundred billion dollars a year pace. And the question is who’s paying that? and the candidates for paying those tariffs, would be the exporter, the foreign exporter, or someone on our shores. It could be a company or a retailer, someone is using the imported product to manufacture something, or the end consumer. And so far, in its incredibly early days, it doesn’t look like the overseas exporters are carrying the bulk of it. Its like its that middle group. Its the retailers and its the importers – and they’re not passing it along to consumers that much of the cost. So the actual effects on inflation have been quite modest so far.’

    What Powell was admitting was that tariffs only added about 0.3% to 0.4% to inflation. But the rest, the bulk of about 2.5%, came not from tariffs, – but from the FED money printer.

    That’s the ‘tariff inflation deception,’ – its the M2 Money Supply that’s causing the inflation. This is why gold’s up 40% this year.

    With Trump’s tariff’s, the U.S. is now seeing around $400 billion a year coming into the U.S. Treasury, whilst inflation is basically nothing. Now compare this reality to what they were telling us six to nine months ago, when every CNBC economist was saying that tariffs equals inflation, its a tax on consumers, prices are going to skyrocket, we’re going to have 1970’s stagflation, – but it never happened.

    Or was it just more MSM misdirection?, look over there (tariffs), whilst they cause inflation over here (QE).

    Over this year’s tariff period, inflation has actually dropped ~1% from over 3% to 2.05%.

    Did President Reagan’s tariffs during the 1980’s cause hyperinflation?, no, America experienced its strongest economy in modern history. The real reason why the FED’s cutting rates right now, whilst stocks are their All-Time-Highs (ATH), and unemployment at record lows, is because the FED knows, – if they don’t get the rates down right now, – the U.S. debt interest will be unpayable. This would send the government into a debt doom loop, so the real inflation is not tariffs, – its coming from the FED, the ECB, the BoJ, etc, they’re all racing to debase their currencies – and their using tariffs as the scapegoat.

    So where does this $22.2 trillion of U.S. M2 Money Supply go?, – its going into the ‘Trade of the Decade.’

    America and those who bought into America have already won, its already game over, there’s nothing further to do.

  7. acv19ff39b09e86:
    “…HOPEFULLY THESE IDIOTS WHO GOVERN US WILL WAKE UP, BUT I WON’T HOLD MY BREATH.”

    They’re already wide awake and have been for a long time. So, hoping they’ll wake up won’t make them go away.
    They’re not ‘idiots’ – they know what they’re doing – simply following orders of their Malthusian controllers from the humanity hating WEF and UN and WHO.
    But the real problem isn’t ‘THE POLIS WHO SUPPORT THOSE THAT WANT TO DESTROY WESTERN ECONOMIES, but our fellow citizens who don’t believe they will carry out their evil plan to destroy our economies (while they’re actually carrying it, right now – in plain sight, right under their stupid noses and they either haven’t noticed, and/or, don’t care.
    They adopt the typical complacent aussie ‘aww she’ll be right’ attitude of: might as well do as they say – ‘easier to just go along to get along’.
    THEY are the real enemy – the real enemy who are enabling this whole anti-humanity plan to be ushered in at ‘warp speed’, by their gleeful compliance, who walk freely among us.

  8. ANOTHER MIGHTY SUCCESS FOR HUMANITY, THANK YOU PRESIDENT TRUMP FOR STANDING UP TO THE TYRANICLE UN AND TO STICK IT UP THE POLIS WHO SUPPORT THOSE THAT WANT TO DESTROY WESTERN ECONOMIES, HOPEFULLY THESE IDIOTS WHO GOVERN US WILL WAKE UP, BUT I WON’T HOLD MY BREATH.

  9. Jacinta.

    I occupy ‘stolen aboriginal land’?

    I WAS BORN HERE. I was not given a choice in that. I HAVE NOWHERE ELSE TO CALL HOME.

    I am not guilty of any crime being here.

    Under Aboriginal Lore, as Lore stands over Law, and Law stands over legal, I belong to this land. By Lore, Law and legally.

    You most certainly deserve a proper EDUCATION, as the one you got makes you look the right fool. Idiot, go back to your world of lies and liars.

  10. The great state of Canada seems unconvinced about accepting Trump’s generous offer to join the USA so maybe Western Australia could join the Union instead. Here we have Twiggy and S.Hacca pushing for green everything at expense to themselves, there seems to be little evidence of the direct money trail, I have speculated that Twiggy and S.Hacca are trying to win their hereditary “Baron” title back from the Green King, otherwise why else would they be wasting so much effort on a nonsense that most people can see through, excluding everyone at ABC-TV and SBS, who are obviously still getting their CoVid jabs every 6 months, aren’t they Mr Norman Swannsky, big hello mad injectionist Virginia Trioli

  11. Jacinta needs to wake up a bit.
    I don’t see her getting around in a lap lap or less, or going on long walkabouts to get seasonal food.
    She drives and flies, and eats Western food heartily, probably gets her family, excluding her, injected with deadly injections frequently, probably sleeps on a better mattress than the rest of us, and no doubt has a huge bank account by now.
    I don’t see how a useless carbon tax on shipping, is going to save her aboriginal friends and relatives, from roll on taxes that Albonsleasy and Co love to steal/put out at every opportunity.
    Her mind is proving to be a bit befuddled at the moment.
    Sleazy wasn’t going to get to keep any of that tax anyway, so why would he support it, other than to break the country a bit more for laughs.

  12. Hahahahahaha I hope it passes when they try introducing it next time. Aussie cucks deserve to pay higher prices on shipping – after all, they’re cis white bigot colonizers who illegally occupy stolen Aboriginal land.
