Obama’s solar electric power plan failed, another scam imploded and the money is gone. China is now halting the minerals. Sometimes you must show the people. [CB] says the quiet part out loud. Trump is weaving in and out of the [CB] system, making sure the transition does not impact the people. The [DS] is having a tough time keeping up the narrative of the deported illegals. The administration said they are not playing the games with the rogue judges anymore. Trump just sent a message to the people of this country. How do you beat an entrenched enemy, the only way is using game theory. This is not another election, the enemy is being produced and will be defeated.

Apple Races To Boost iPhone Production In India, Vietnam As Trump Pauses Tariffs
President Trump’s 90-day pause on his “reciprocal” tariffs for countries that did not retaliate—excluding China—has allowed Tim Cook’s Apple to ramp up production of smartphones, tablets, and laptops in India and Vietnam.
Sources familiar with Apple’s supply chains told Nikkei Asia that top suppliers in India were instructed to ramp up iPhone production. Yet the people noted that factory utilization rates were already at maximum levels, making it challenging to bring on significant amounts of new production.

Sunday Talks: Secretary of Commerce Outlines Purpose of Tariff “Exemptions” – Sector Specific Tariffs Coming Soon
there are two “sector specific” tariffs in Semiconductors and Pharmaceuticals that will be announced in the next few months. The recently announced “exemptions” are products that will be included in the sector specific tariffs that are also identified as “non-negotiable” tariffs.
Semiconductor items, automobiles, steel and aluminum as well as pharmaceutical products will fall under categories or ‘sectors’ of products that will be non-negotiable in all trade agreements for the tariff levy applied. Any nation who enters negotiations for new Free Trade Agreements (FTAs) will not be permitted to negotiate trade on semiconductor products, automobiles, steel, aluminum and medications. WATCH:

Stephen Miller Reiterates Tariff Strategy Around Section 232 National Security Products
Steel, Aluminum, Automobiles, Pharmaceuticals and components for semiconductor manufacturing all fall under the Section 232 “National Security” tariff umbrella. Meaning, the products within each of those sectors of manufacturing are handled ¹differently from all other tariffs as executed. WATCH:
[¹NOTE: This approach could present a problem in future lawsuits, because the administration is now beginning to define what is classified as a ‘national security’ product. Lawfare operatives will likely say in court that all other tariff sectors (not 232) are controlled by congress, not the President; at least that will be their predictable argument. The administration will counter by arguing all other sector tariffs are directed in response to the Fentanyl crisis, which is again described as a “national security” threat.]

in the upcoming National Security Tariff Investigations. What has been exposed is that we need to make products in the United States, and that we will not be held hostage by other Countries, especially hostile trading Nations like China, which will do everything within its power to disrespect the American People. We also cannot let them continue to abuse us on Trade, like they have for decades, THOSE DAYS ARE OVER! The Golden Age of America, which includes the upcoming Tax and Regulation Cuts, a substantial amount of which was just approved by the House and Senate, will mean more and better paying Jobs, making products in our Nation, and treating other Countries, in particular China, the same way they have treated us. The bottom line is that our Country will be bigger, better, and stronger than ever before. We will, MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!

USPS To Hike Stamp Prices By About 7.4% To 78 Cents Effective This Summer
The U.S. Postal Service has proposed raising the price of a “forever” stamp from 73 cents to 78 cents as part of a broader rate hike set to take effect July 13, pending approval from the Postal Regulatory Commission, according to CBS News.
The increase would raise mailing service prices by about 7.4%.
The USPS says the hike is necessary for financial stability, continuing a trend of rate increases under former Postmaster General Louis DeJoy, who warned customers to expect “uncomfortable” pricing adjustments after a decade of flawed pricing models.

Trump Lobs Energy Bomb at EU
EU leaders face a dire choice with no consensus. Germany and France advocate talks, aiming to lessen Trump’s demands—perhaps by partly meeting his energy terms—to avert disaster. They dread export slumps, factory closures, and a downturn worse than past crises, clinging to a fragile hope of stability.
The EU Commission’s pleas for cohesion fall flat amid the clash. Ireland and Luxembourg brace for export losses, while Italy and Spain eye energy price hikes that could spark unrest. The European Central Bank, hampered by debt and limited options, stands by anxiously. Protests ripple across cities like Lisbon and Warsaw, split between anger at Trump and frustration with Brussels’ long drift.
If the EU buckles under Trump’s grip, a new path could open: a alliance of sovereign states, free from Brussels’ overreach and Washington’s demands. The West might be tearing itself apart, but from the debris, a stronger, truer Europe could rise—one that’s ready to face a reshaped world on its own terms. For now, though, the stakes couldn’t be higher, and the outcome couldn’t be less certain.

Federal Reserve rules out liquidity injection, expects Trump’s actions to kill rate cut plans
The US Federal Reserve will not inject more liquidity into the system anytime soon, even if the job market slows down.
Officials said the inflation risks tied to President Donald Trump’s new tariffs are too big to ignore and they’re not rushing into decisions that could undo the work they’ve done fighting inflation since 2022.
According to Bloomberg, the Fed plans to keep rates steady and is not offering insurance cuts to help markets ride out the impact of Trump’s tariffs. Officials said they want to prevent a long-term spike in prices, and they’re not moving unless unemployment jumps hard. They also told Wall Street that it’ll take more than financial market panic to push them into action.

Swiss Pharma Company Announces $23 Billion U.S. Investment Days After Trump Pledged ‘Major Tariff’ on Drug Imports
Pharmaceutical company Novartis announced plans to build seven facilities in the United States and expand others in a $23 billion investment over five years on the heels of President Donald Trump’s announcement of forthcoming tariffs on imported drugs.
The Swiss company revealed the major investment in a press release.
“This commitment enables Novartis to expand on its current manufacturing, research and technology presence across the country with 10 facilities, including 7 brand new facilities, creating nearly 1,000 new jobs at Novartis and approximately 4,000 additional US jobs,” the release said.
Six of the facilities will be manufacturing plants, two of which will focus on radioligand therapy in Florida and Texas. It remains to be seen where the other four plants will be built.
Moreover, the company is establishing a biomedical research innovation center in San Diego as part of the investment, and it is expanding three of its production facilities in Indiana, New Jersey, and California.
The company also noted that its goal is to ensure “all key Novartis medicines for US patients will be made in the United States.”

People will do more useful jobs than before, the total output of goods and services will increase, and then the average standard of living will increase.
The most important lesson in economics is simply common sense: the more people in a country that are engaged in producing useful products and services, the better off that country will be.
Generally, I think you want to minimize the number of people in government. You want to keep that to a minimum and move people from low to negative-productivity roles to high-productivity roles in the private sector.”

Economic Disruption: Adjusting clocks disrupts business schedules, leading to estimated losses of $400-$600 million annually in the U.S. due to reduced productivity, errors, and coordination issues, according to studies like one from Chmura Economics (2016).
Health Impacts: The time shift affects sleep patterns, increasing risks of heart attacks (by ~24% the Monday after the spring shift, per a 2019 study) and workplace injuries, which raise healthcare and insurance costs.
Energy Consumption: Originally intended to save energy, DST’s benefits are negligible or negative. Modern studies (e.g., Kotchen & Grant, 2011) show slight increases in electricity use due to air conditioning and heating demands, costing millions in some regions.

Largest US Egg Producer Cal-Maine Under DOJ Price Investigation
Cal-Maine Foods Inc., the nation’s largest egg producer,, on Tuesday acknowledged that it is being investigated by the Department of Justice’s Antitrust Division over the national increase in egg prices.
The brief admission in its newest financial report made headlines and the company’s shares fell by about 4 percent in after-hours trading.
“In March 2025, the Company received a civil investigative demand in connection with a widely publicized investigation by the Antitrust Division of the Department of Justice into the causes behind nationwide increases in egg prices,” Cal-Maine said in its financial report for its third quarter on Tuesday. “The Company is cooperating with the investigation.”
Cal-Maine also announced that it signed an agreement before the end of the third quarter to acquire Echo Lake Foods for about $258 million.
“Echo Lake Foods is a leading innovator with a long history of providing quality ready-to-eat egg products and breakfast foods to a blue-chip customer base,” Miller said.

Goldman Sachs Suddenly Changes Tune On Recession Forecast After Trump’s Tariff Pause
Goldman Sachs reversed its recession forecast just moments after President Donald Trump announced a 90-day pause on his “Liberation Day” tariffs.
The investment giant had raised its recession outlook to a 65% probability earlier in the day following the rollout of country-specific tariffs, which briefly rattled markets. But after Trump’s surprise announcement to scale back the trade war, Goldman economists backtracked almost immediately, dialing the probability down to 45% and restoring their prior GDP growth forecast of 0.5%.

House Bill
House bill mixes extending existing tax cuts with potentially new ones, though the exact details of which new cuts will be included are still being negotiated as part of the reconciliation process.
Senate Bill
The Senate, which passed its budget framework on April 5, 2025, by a 51-48 vote, takes a different approach:
Extension of TCJA: Like the House, it aims to extend the 2017 tax cuts, estimated at $3.8 trillion over 10 years. However, the Senate uses a controversial “current policy” baseline, treating these extensions as costing $0 by assuming they’re already part of ongoing policy. This accounting maneuver hides their true fiscal impact.
New Tax Cuts: The Senate Finance Committee is instructed to enact up to $1.5 trillion in additional tax cuts beyond the TCJA extensions, measured against this baseline. These could include Trump’s proposed exemptions (e.g., no tax on tips or overtime), making them “new” relative to the 2017 framework. Combined with the hidden TCJA cost, the total tax relief could reach $5.3 trillion, though only the $1.5 trillion is explicitly labeled as new spending.

3.3-3.8% and long-run real GDP by 2.6-3.2%
— Save 4.1 million jobs from being destroyed
— Invest as much as $100 billion in distressed communities
Yes, the European Union has decided to pause its planned counter-tariffs on U.S. goods for 90 days. This decision comes in response to U.S. President Donald Trump’s announcement on April 9, 2025, that he would pause higher tariffs on most countries for 90 days, with the exception of China. The EU’s move is intended to create space for negotiations with the U.S. to address ongoing trade tensions.
European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen stated that the EU wants “to give negotiations a chance,” noting that while the countermeasures had strong support from member states, they will be put on hold during this period. However, she also cautioned that if negotiations do not yield satisfactory results, the EU’s countermeasures will be implemented. The counter-tariffs, which were set to target approximately €21 billion worth of U.S. products like soybeans, motorcycles, and orange juice, were originally scheduled to begin on April 15, 2025.
This pause aligns with Trump’s decision to lower tariffs on many trading partners to a universal 10% rate for 90 days, while escalating tariffs on China to 125%. The EU, still subject to the 10% baseline tariff and specific 25% tariffs on steel, aluminum, and cars, appears to be using this window to seek a broader resolution to the trade dispute.

As of the latest developments on April 10, 2025, Canada has not fully paused its tariffs on U.S. goods but has adjusted its approach in response to U.S. actions. When President Donald Trump announced a 90-day pause on most tariffs for many countries (excluding China) on April 9, 2025, Canada’s existing retaliatory tariffs remained in place. However, Canada has previously paused planned additional tariffs in sync with U.S. pauses. For instance, on March 6, 2025, Canada delayed its second wave of retaliatory tariffs on $125 billion worth of U.S. products until April 2, 2025, after Trump paused tariffs on USMCA-compliant goods from Canada until that date. This suggests Canada has been willing to pause new tariff actions when the U.S. does the same, but it has not lifted its initial retaliatory tariffs, such as the $30 billion (CAD) worth implemented earlier in response to U.S. tariffs.
Canada’s stance has been to maintain its countermeasures until the U.S. fully removes its tariffs. Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, before stepping down, and subsequent leaders like Mark Carney have emphasized that Canada’s tariffs are a response to “unjustified” U.S. actions and will persist unless the U.S. ends the trade war. On April 9, 2025, despite Trump’s 90-day pause sparing most countries (with Canada still facing a 10% baseline tariff and higher rates on non-USMCA goods), there’s no indication Canada immediately paused its existing tariffs. Instead, Carney called the pause a “welcome reprieve” but signaled ongoing negotiations rather...

China is the Auto Capital of the World
China is the world’s largest car producer and exporter. A little-known fact is that China first became the world’s largest car exporter back in 2023, with low-cost EV companies BYD and Chery in the spotlight. The nation’s auto sector has been steadily expanding since then, with Chinese brands reaching an all-time high of 69.4% of domestic passenger vehicle market share in Q1 2025.
Overall, China exported 5.86 million vehicles in 2024, a 19.3% annual increase. Mexico, Russia, Brazil, and the UAE were the top buyers. China sold 4.96 million passenger vehicles (19.7% YoY increase), 900,000 commercial vehicles (17.5% YoY increase), and 1.28 million new energy vehicles, as well as 987,000 battery-electric vehicles.
Japan is the world’s second-largest car exporter, exporting 4.22 million vehicles in 2024. This marked a -4.5% decline from 2023. Toyota remains Japan’s leading vehicle, accounting for $312.28 billion in revenue and 830,048 million vehicles.
Germany is holding onto third place in auto exports. In 2024, Germany exported 3.4 million passenger cars, marking a 2.5% annual increase. Around 25.9% of all vehicles exported from Germany last year were electric. Volkswagen Group remains Germany’s star, generating $354.86 billion in revenue for the year.

Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent warned that China’s decision to retaliate against President Donald Trump’s tariffs will ultimately backfire.
China announced it is raising tariffs on American goods from 34% to 84% in response to Trump hiking tariffs on Chinese goods from 54% to 104%, Bessent thats because China exports far more to the U.S. than it imports, it has more to lose in a trade war.

Q
Will Trump End The Fed Or Put Himself In Charge Of It?
On February 18, 2025 President Trump issued an executive order titled, “Ensuring Accountability for all Agencies,” in which he says,
…previous administrations have allowed so-called “independent regulatory agencies” to operate with minimal Presidential supervision. These regulatory agencies currently exercise substantial executive authority without sufficient accountability to the President, and through him, to the American people.
Trump’s team is doing the best it can in an environment hostile not only to him personally but to the principles of good faith and trust. In reading the executive order we find that,
…all executive departments and agencies, including so-called independent agencies, shall submit for review all proposed and final significant regulatory actions to the Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs (OIRA) within the Executive Office of the President before publication in the Federal Register.
Superficially, it sounds good but wait—it said “all.” Does he mean it? “This order shall not apply to the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System or to the Federal Open Market Committee in its conduct of monetary policy.” We think of the president as the Chief Executive, but a hands-off-the-Fed approach tells us otherwise.
For the moment the Fed might be untouchable. But its creator was the state, and all it takes is courage to do away with it, which is why it’s been wreaking havoc for over a century.

The Myth of Biden’s “Roaring” Economy
Claims that President Trump inherited a thriving economy from President Biden are not just misleading—they’re dishonest. The Biden supporters measure economic “growth” from the lowest point of the COVID lockdowns in 2020, when businesses were shuttered and unemployment was artificially high. This makes even mediocre recovery look like booming progress. But if we compare Biden’s economy to 2019—the last full year before the pandemic—many key indicators show not a robust rebound but an economy weighed down by inflation, debt, and diminished purchasing power.
Real wages are down. From January 2021 to May 2024, average hourly earnings for private-sector workers fell by 2.24% when adjusted for inflation. Even broader comparisons with 2019 show only marginal gains. According to the House Budget Committee, inflation-adjusted household net worth was still down 4.7% as of early 2025. Meanwhile, inflation surged 15.5% cumulatively from January 2021 through December 2024, with a peak annual rate of 9.1% in June 2022—the highest in more than four decades. President Biden’s $1.9 trillion American Rescue Plan, along with the $740 billion Inflation Reduction Act—two of the largest spending and money-creation programs in U.S. history—helped sustain inflationary pressure rather than curbing it.
Employment numbers tell a similarly deceptive story. Biden often boasts of adding 16.6 million jobs, but much of that reflects people simply returning to work after pandemic shutdowns. Job growth also leaned heavily on part-time and public-sector positions. Of the jobs Biden claims to have created, about half, 8.3 million were part-time, and 1.2 million were government jobs—positions effectively created by executive action, shifting money from taxpayers to government payrolls.
Americans were also borrowing more just to get by. Total household debt hit a record $17.9 trillion in the third quarter of 2024, up 26% from $14.15 trillion in 2019. Credit card debt alone exceeded $1.14 trillion, up nearly 15% when adjusted for inflation. Delinquencies have surged—9.1% of credit card accounts were delinquent as of Q3 2024, the highest rate since 2011. Auto repossessions rose by 23% in 2023, with an estimated 1.5–2 million vehicles repossessed, a jump from 1.3 million in 2019. Foreclosure activity followed a similar path: filings rose to 357,000 in 2023, still below the 493,000 in 2019 but climbing as post-pandemic protections ended.
The cost of living soared, especially in housing. Average mortgage payments doubled from $1,300 to $2,600 between 2021 and 2024, pushing many Americans out of homeownership, while rents rose 40%. At the same time, the personal savings rate fell to 4%—down from 7.5% in 2019—signaling that households were draining savings just to cover basic expenses.
Supporters of Biden’s economy often point to headline GDP numbers and international comparisons. In 2023, the U.S. posted a real GDP growth rate of 2.5%, outperforming peers like Japan (1.9%), Canada (1.1%), and the Euro area (0.5%). That resilience, however, is nothing new. In 2019, the U.S. grew at 2.3% while Germany grew just 1.1%. The U.S. economy has long outperformed other G7 nations thanks to a large consumer base, a dynamic private sector, and global tech leadership. Nominal GDP reached $27 trillion in 2023, dwarfing Japan’s $4.2 trillion and Germany’s $4.5 trillion. But these structural advantages are not new and cannot be credited to Biden. They are the result of decades of American economic dominance—not the product of any one administration’s policy.
The homelessness crisis adds another layer of evidence that Biden’s economy is far from strong. Under Trump, overall homelessness remained relatively steady, fluctuating between 550,000 and 580,000 according to HUD data, with gains in reducing veteran homelessness. But during Biden’s tenure, the number of homeless Americans surged dramatically. HUD reported 653,104 people homeless on a single night in January 2023, and by January 2024, that figure had jumped to over 770,000—an 18% increase in just one year. Chronic homelessness rose to 152,600, the highest number ever recorded.
None of these comparisons should rely on 2020 data. That year was an anomaly driven by pandemic chaos. The appropriate benchmark is 2019, when the economy was healthy, inflation was low, and wages were rising.

probability of a great DEAL for both countries. Their top TEAM is on a plane heading to the U.S., and things are looking good. We are likewise dealing with many other countries, all of whom want to make a deal with the United States. Like with South Korea, we are bringing up other subjects that are not covered by Trade and Tariffs, and getting them negotiated also. “ONE STOP SHOPPING” is a beautiful and efficient process!!! China also wants to make a deal, badly, but they don’t know how to get it started. We are waiting for their call. It will happen! GOD BLESS THE USA.
Commission President von der Leyen Coordinates EU Tariff Response with China
EU Commission President Ursula von der Leyen announces she is coordinating the tariff response with China.
Apparently, the EU recognizes the ideological alignment of support from Canada just isn’t going to be enough to pressure President Trump and retain leverage into the U.S. market. This is quite a remarkable admission from von der Leyen all things considered. [STATEMENT]
This coordination of response between Brussels and Beijing is happening simultaneous to the Chinese central bank beginning a rapid devaluation of their currency. Direct subsidies and currency manipulation are the first two approaches taken by any economy dependent on access to the U.S. market.
The difference this time is the scale of the tariffs President Trump is delivering. There’s no way to subsidize and lower currency value at a rate significant enough to mitigate a near 50% tariff impact across all sectors. China and the EU will subsidize and devalue, but they cannot repeat their prior defensive programs to this scale.
The key takeaway from this public admission by the EU President is to note how consequential the tariffs are to their parasitic endeavors.
The EU is directly working with Beijing against American interests.

Here’s how much more Nike’s Air Jordans could cost after tariffs hit
The sneaker giant makes about half of it footwear in Vietnam, which was slapped with a 46% tax as part of President Trump’s reciprocal tariffs announced on Wednesday.
Those looking to pick up a pair of the brand’s Air Jordan 1 High sneakers could shell out an extra $18 on top of their current $180 price tag after the new tariff goes into effect April 9, industry sources told The Post.
The 46% tariff on Vietnam would add another $8.28 to the total cost per pair, which adds up when its multiplied by 8,000 – or the number of sneakers that can fit in to a shipping container.
But Nike is likely to negotiate deals with its factories to mitigate these costs — or as many industry experts believe, the tariffs will change as the countries negotiate deals.

JUST IN: European Union Makes a Major Trade Offer to America After President Trump Reveals His One Condition for Making a Deal With the Bloc on Tariffs (VIDEO)
EU Commission President Ursula von der Leyen said on Monday that the bloc has offered a “zero-for-zero tariff” trade arrangement on industrial goods with the United States in a bid to avoid a full-on trade war.
https://twitter.com/BehizyTweets/status/1909257019418435702
to us and say we’ll go to zero tariffs, that means nothing to us because it’s the nontariff cheating that matters.”
Peter Navarro refers to the use of non-tariff barriers (NTBs) that restrict or distort trade without directly imposing tariffs (taxes on imports). These are indirect methods countries employ to protect their domestic industries, limit foreign competition, or gain an unfair trade advantage, often bypassing international trade rules like those of the World Trade Organization (WTO). Navarro’s statement reflects the Trump administration’s view that simply dropping tariffs to zero isn’t enough if these other barriers persist, as they can be just as damaging—or more so—to American exports.
Examples of non-tariff cheating include:
Transshipment: A practice where goods (often from China) are routed through a country like Vietnam with minimal processing, then labeled as “Made in Vietnam” to evade U.S. tariffs on Chinese imports. Navarro has highlighted this as a key issue, noting that billions in Chinese goods enter the U.S. this way annually, undermining tariff enforcement.
Subsidies: Government financial support to domestic industries—such as tax breaks, grants, or low-interest loans—allows foreign companies to sell products at artificially low prices. This undercuts American producers who don’t receive similar aid, a tactic often attributed to state-driven economies like Vietnam’s or China’s.
Technical Barriers: Overly strict or arbitrary regulations, such as unique safety standards, labeling requirements, or testing procedures, can block U.S. goods from entering foreign markets. For instance, Vietnam has been cited for complex registration processes that hinder American agricultural exports like meat or dairy.
Import Quotas and Licensing: Limits on the quantity of goods that can be imported or requirements for special permits create bottlenecks. Vietnam’s past use of quotas on certain U.S. products exemplifies this, restricting market access even if tariffs are low.
Value-Added Taxes (VAT): Navarro specifically calls out VAT as a barrier. Many countries, including Vietnam, apply VAT to imports but rebate it to domestic exporters, effectively taxing U.S. goods while subsidizing their own. Vietnam’s VAT rate, around 10%, has been flagged as tilting the playing field.
Currency Manipulation: Deliberately weakening a country’s currency (like Vietnam’s dong) makes its exports cheaper and U.S. imports more expensive. Vietnam has been on the U.S. Treasury’s watchlist for this, though it’s no longer labeled a manipulator as of 2025.
Intellectual Property Theft: Copying U.S. technology or designs without compensation reduces American competitiveness. While more associated with China, Vietnam’s manufacturing boom has raised concerns about enforcement laxity.

Trump sued over China tariffs
President Trump was sued over the 20 percent tariffs he imposed on Chinese goods i
It marks the first known legal challenge against Trump’s tariffs, which have fulfilled a campaign promise and rattled financial markets.
The lawsuit contests Trump’s use of the International Emergency Economic Powers Act of 1977 (IEEPA), arguing the law authorizes asset freezes and similar economic sanctions, but not tariffs.
“Congress passed the IEEPA to counter external emergencies, not to grant presidents a blank check to write domestic economic policy,” the lawsuit states.
Source: thehill.com
The International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA) of 1977 is a United States federal law that grants the President broad authority to regulate international economic transactions during a national emergency. Enacted on October 28, 1977, it’s codified under Title 50 of the U.S. Code, sections 1701-1707. The act was designed to replace the Trading with the Enemy Act of 1917, narrowing the scope of presidential powers to peacetime emergencies rather than wartime scenarios.
Under IEEPA, the President can declare a national emergency in response to an “unusual and extraordinary threat” to the U.S. national security, foreign policy, or economy that originates largely from abroad. Once declared, the President can block transactions, freeze assets, and impose economic sanctions on foreign entities or individuals. The law requires the President to notify Congress of the emergency and provide periodic updates, but it doesn’t mandate Congressional approval to maintain the emergency.

To cut your tariff, buy American stuff
So Trump’s tariffs should benefit the trade-deficit U.S. even if they ignite a trade war.  But a trade war is far from inevitable.  Reciprocal tariffs create incentives for countries to buy from the U.S. in order to sell to the U.S.  Vietnam, for example, bought $13.1 billion from the U.S. in 2024, whereas it sold $136.6 billion to the U.S.  To bring down Trump’s 46% tariff rate on Vietnamese products, Vietnam will probably negotiate with Trump, agreeing to buy more U.S. products.
During his first term, Trump’s tariffs, primarily upon trade-surplus China, helped ignite a U.S. boom in which real median income in the U.S. climbed sharply.  Under Biden, however, median household income fell.  In fact, except for the first Trump administration, median U.S. incomes have been flat throughout the 21st century, the period during which U.S. trade deficits have been high.
For the last 25 years, global trade has worked as follows.  The U.S. and its people borrow money to buy stuff and go deeper into debt.  The U.S. Net International Investment Position at the end of the Biden administration in Q4 of 2024 was 26 trillion dollars.  This means that, on net, the United States government, its people, and its companies owe the rest of the world 26 trillion dollars more than the rest of the world owes us.  U.S. annual GDP in the fourth quarter of 2024 was less than 30 trillion dollars, so the net debt is a large share of GDP already, and it has been growing fast while U.S. industry has been hollowed out.
This cannot go on forever.
Trump is changing the dynamics of a global trading system that has hollowed out U.S. production and buried the U.S. in debt for decades.  It won’t be easy.  But the new incentives Trump is putting into place hold out the hope of a better global trading system.
The result could be a transition from a world in which the U.S. borrows to buy to a world in which countries trade on a more equal basis.  Trump is using tariffs to grow U.S. household income, business investment, and GDP.  He, thereby, could be establishing a bright, sustainable world future based upon balanced trade.

“Mag7 problem”: “Mag7” is shorthand for the “Magnificent Seven,” a group of seven major U.S. tech companies—Apple, Amazon, Tesla, Alphabet (Google), Microsoft, Meta, and Nvidia. These firms have been key drivers of market performance in recent years due to their size, influence, and heavy weighting in indices like the Nasdaq. Bessent suggests that the selloff is primarily driven by issues specific to these tech giants, such as overvaluation, slowing earnings growth, or sector-specific pressures (e.g., competition in AI or shifts in investor sentiment), rather than broader economic or political factors.
“Not a MAGA problem”: “MAGA” stands for “Make America Great Again,” a slogan associated with President Donald Trump and his policy agenda, particularly following his re-election in November 2024. Policies tied to MAGA, like steep tariffs or deregulation, have been speculated to impact markets. Bessent, as Treasury Secretary in Trump’s administration, is arguing that the selloff isn’t a result of these Trump-related policies but rather stems from the dynamics affecting the Mag7 stocks.
Stock Market Today: Dow down 1,200 points, S&P 500 and Nasdaq plunge as Trump tariffs roil markets; Apple, Nvidia and Nike slump; dollar and gold dive.

VW Among Several European Automakers To Halt Vehicle Shipments, Raise Prices, In Response To Tariffs
European automakers are hiking prices and shifting production to the U.S. in response to Trump’s auto tariffs. Volkswagen will add import fees to vehicle prices, while Volvo and Mercedes-Benz are considering expanding U.S. manufacturing to avoid the 25% duties, according to Bloomberg.
Mercedes may move production of a model to Alabama to offset tariffs and is weighing pulling its cheaper cars from the U.S. after a 58% sales jump in its top-selling import, the GLC SUV. Germany’s economy minister backed EU talks with the U.S. but warned of a “clear and decisive response” if no deal is reached, calling the tariffs a risk to global stability.
Volkswagen, which builds cars in Tennessee, still imports key models from Europe and Mexico. The U.S. now makes up 20% of its revenue, helped by a 7% sales boost in 2024.
BMW imports 60% of its U.S. sales and depends on European parts for its South Carolina plant. Mercedes’ Alabama factory faces similar supply chain exposure.
Volvo plans to expand U.S. production, while Ferrari will hike U.S. prices up to 10%. British automakers warned Americans will likely pay more for iconic brands like Bentley and Mini.

EU President Ursula von der Leyen is Apoplectic, Worries of Asian Product Dumping into EU
The response from the EU is exactly what we would expect to see from the end of the 80-year-old Marshal Plan.
EU Commission President Ursula von der Leyden has three big concerns with the new trade/tariff reset. I strongly suggest everyone to read the EU concerns slowly to fully absorb decades of hypocrisy now surfacing:
#1 The EU will not be able to compete for U.S. market share with 20% general tariffs and 25% auto tariffs.
#2 The EU must deploy countermeasures against the risk of losing industrial capacity and manufacturing to the United States.
And #3 The EU must defend itself against China dumping cheap products into the EU now rejected by the USA.
As noted by Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, all of the global trade partners would do themselves a favor if they did not react emotionally with increased countervailing duties.
The currently outlined U.S. reciprocal tariffs represent a ceiling amount levied. The goal is to lower the tariffs to zero by eliminating all trade barriers. If the EU raises their baseline tariffs, the only thing that happens is the U.S. side increases at the same proportion. The higher von der Leyen goes in her tariffs, the higher the U.S. countervailing duty applies.

Canadian PM Mark Carney Says Will Match Trump Auto Tariffs at 25%
Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney spins a tale of Automaker Stellantis temporarily shutting down auto plants in Canada and Mexico as an outcome of President Trump’s tariffs. Unfortunately, the gaslighting by Carney might work on less intellectual SnowMexicans, but it fails here.
Stellantis, an EU centered auto company who sell Dodge, Ram (made in Mexico) and Dodge, Durango (made in Canada), have been in a deepening crisis for over a year as a result of poor brand management, poor development and weak North American sales. In short, their cars and trucks are not selling, that’s why the CEO quit in December, and they fired and replaced the North American leadership team. It has nothing to do with Trump’s auto tariffs against Mexico and Canada.
Mark Carney used the Stellantis plant closing (Windsor) as cover to announce that Canada would match the auto-tariffs with a 25% countervailing duty against all U.S. made cars and trucks.
This approach only raises the ceiling for the U.S. tariffs against Canada.

US Trade Representative Exposes 10 Dirty Tricks Used by Foreign Governments to Sabotage U.S. Exports
The Office of the United States Trade Representative (USTR) has dropped a bombshell with its 2025 National Trade Estimate Report on Foreign Trade Barriers, shining a glaring spotlight on the dirty tricks foreign nations are using to kneecap American exporters.
The NTE Report, released just days ago, confirms what patriots have been shouting from the rooftops: our so-called trading partners are rigging the game.
From Algeria to Vietnam, here are the 10 unfair trade practices the USTR is calling out:
1/10: China’s non-tariff measures and high tariffs on U.S. agricultural products—like soybeans, pork, wheat, and corn—have greatly restricted market access for American farmers. Removing these barriers would generate an estimated $6 billion in additional annual exports of these products.
2/10: The U.S. shrimp industry noted the negative impacts of subsidized low-cost, farm-raised shrimp imports from Brazil, China, Ecuador, India, Thailand, and Vietnam. According to NOAA Fisheries, the total value of U.S. shrimp fishermen’s catch fell from $522 million in 2021 to $268 million in 2023—an almost 50% decrease.

Trump’s tariffs could cause a recession, experts say. Here’s how.
A policy of wide-ranging levies on foreign goods could tip the U.S. into a recession, experts said. They pointed to risks of a slowdown for businesses mired in higher tax costs, as well as a shopping slump as consumers curtail spending to pad their savings to help weather price increases and a possible economic downturn.

Canadian leader Doug Ford proposes eliminating tariffs on US imports — if President Trump does the same
Ontario Premier Doug Ford proposed Wednesday that Canada could drop its tariffs on US imports — if President Trump did the same for America’s northern neighbor.
“President Trump’s tariffs will put millions of American jobs at risk and raise costs for families across the U.S.,” Ford wrote on X ahead of the US president’s expected “Liberation Day” announcement.
“I’ll be making the case all day directly to Americans: drop the tariffs and let’s work together to be the richest and safest two countries on the planet.”

Hiring Accelerates in March Despite Tariff Hysteria, ADP Reports
Private-sector job growth accelerated in March, according to data released Wednesday by ADP, countering gloomy predictions that tariffs would slam the brakes on the labor market. Instead, hiring came in stronger than expected, with 155,000 jobs added across the U.S. economy—even as corporate media and left-leaning economists warn daily of a looming slowdown.
Professional and business services led the way with 57,000 new jobs, followed by financial activities with 38,000 and manufacturing with 21,000.
In other words, despite the policy “uncertainty” and alleged “downbeat” consumer mood cited by critics of the Trump administration’s trade agenda, businesses kept hiring at a healthy clip.

Trump’s Six-Point Plan for Making America Great Again
First, there was his all-important warning shot to the EU that its days of protectionism are numbered. America wants better access to European markets and a more level playing field for many products which continue to be the subject of extremely high tariffs.
The U.S. also wants a more flexible EU Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) that will give U.S. agri-products better access to European markets.
No longer would they be able to artificially suppress demand for American vehicles by keeping 10% tariffs on U.S. cars when the U.S. tariff is only 2.5%.
No longer would they be able to prevent global companies such as Amazon from competing in European markets by requiring the company to unionize their labor forces.
Second, Trump is intent on bringing back American investment from overseas. Though he knows that American footprint in the EU pales in comparison with that in China, he is not willing to take on China, head-on, right from the start.
Behind the scenes, however, he is encouraging many U.S. companies to “come home to the U.S.A.” from China when their manufacturing contracts are up for renewal. He knows that China is the big drain on U.S. manufacturing investment, especially when it comes to short-run specialized manufacturing.Europe is just a trial balloon for what comes later.Third, Trump is actively engaged in making American government great again by eliminating waste, fraud, and abuse in U.S. departments and agencies.
DOGE is an important tool and Elon Musk is the perfect man for the job because he is expendable when the job is done.
Fourth, by making European products more expensive in the U.S., it is expected that American consumers will buy more American goods thereby reducing our trade imbalance.
However, it is most likely that consumers will buy more Chinese-made goods thereby worsening our trade imbalance with China.
Trump is willing to take that chance for the short-term in order to get concessions from Europe on trade while he continues to encourage American companies to reduce their investment there.Fifth, Trump is intent on pursuing a rebalancing of American business and popular culture, all with an aim to increase efficiency and productivity, as well as to ensure fairness and equality in the workplace. By eliminating DEI and CRT and stopping quota-based hiring practices and university admissions, he’s counting on bringing back meritocracy as the foundation of American business which he feels will eventually lead to better outcomes, higher profits, and increased job satisfaction. Americans want equal opportunity, not unequal advantage. to be the bedrock of their culture, and Trump is intent on remaking the American workplace.Sixth, Trump wants to use the elimination of government departments and savings from DOGE, lower energy prices achieved from new drilling and production of fossil fuels and the return of manufacturing jobs and investment to America as the basis for giving the American public tax cuts in his first year in office. By doing so, he believes he will assure his party of a mid-term election win so that he can make good on his promises to “Make America Great Again.”

A Major Backer Of Green Energy Admits Again That Solar And Wind Power Alone ‘Can’t Reliably Keep The Lights On’
BlackRock CEO Larry Fink, historically a supporter of green energy initiatives, acknowledged that wind and solar alone “can’t reliably keep the lights on” without “major breakthroughs in storage” and wrote that it’s necessary to be “clear-eyed about our energy mix” in his annual chairman’s letter to investors on Monday.
Fink supported the transition to green energy in the past and heads BlackRock, the world’s largest asset management company, which has pushed for Environmental, Social and Corporate Governance (ESG). Fink said in 2023 that he would no longer use the term ESG due to its political connotation, though he’s “not ashamed” of the term and believes in “conscious capitalism.” Fink praised nuclear power and raised doubts Monday regarding the reliability of solar and wind energy alone due to storage issues in his annual chairman’s letter.

Congressman says Trump’s rare earth minerals plans could spur manufacturing boom in Rust Belt
In 2023, China accounted for nearly 70 percent of global production of strategic minerals. Its share has increased after reaching a low at 57.6 percent in 2020. “And here’s the reason why it’s so important that we mine them, because you’re going to almost certainly have your manufacturing close to where you find the natural resource,” Tiffany says.
Congressman Tom Tiffany, R-Wis., predicted that President Trump’s plans on rare earth minerals could spur a manufacturing boom in the Rust Belt, referring to last week’s joint session of Congress on Tuesday. At that speech, Trump said “Later this week, I will also take historic action to dramatically expand production of critical minerals and rare earths here in the USA.”
Trump is reportedly preparing an executive order that would speed up raw mineral production and processing. Tiffany, a member of the Committee on Natural Resources and chairman of its Subcommittee on Federal Lands, said Trump’s executive action will be a game changer for the U.S.

Democrats have a Victory. It would be devastating for the Republican Party and, far more importantly, for the United States. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!
Why Tariffs Are Good
The audiences of the dying legacy media are told that the tariff is a destructive policy revived by politicians like Trump who fail to understand elementary economics, which teaches that free trade benefits all sides all the time everywhere, with no exceptions.
The rehabilitation of tariffs, then, is a belated course correction in response to the rise of China, which has been driven by U.S. companies that offshored manufacturing. The Middle Kingdom has lost its position as the world’s most populous nation to India, but it has surpassed the U.S. as the world’s largest national economy. China dominates global manufacturing, accounting for a market share of around 30% of manufacturing value added in 2023. In comparison, that same year American manufacturing accounted for only 16% of the global total.
China’s trade with the U.S. resembles that of a dominant manufacturing nation with a resource colony. In 2023, China’s main exports to the U.S. were broadcast equipment, computers, and office machine parts. Apart from integrated circuits, one of the few industries in which the U.S. retains an advantage, America’s main exports to China in 2023 were soybeans and crude petroleum, with the value of soybeans ($15.2 billion) twice that of silicon chip exports ($7.01 billion).
Statistics like these explain why not only the U.S. but most other industrial nations and many developing nations like India are throwing up trade barriers against Chinese imports. If they do not, their national manufacturing industries will be wiped out and they will be reduced to supplying the Chinese industrial superpower with farm products or fossil fuels or services like finance and tourism.

WATCH: Crazed TikToker Calls on Illegals to “Shoot at ICE Agents on Sight” – DHS Sec. Kristi Noem Vows Prosecution!
A TikToker posing as a legal expert posted a disturbing video recently where he falsely tells illegal aliens facing deportation that they “have every right to shoot” at ICE agents in an attempt to incite violence against law enforcement.
“If ICE agents are trying to take you or a loved one, shoot them on sight,” he says, attempting to convince people that they’d have “the best self-defense case.”
“You might as well shoot them on site and have your day in court,” he adds.
The individual claims that ICE agents are “pulling up” without identifying themselves, wearing masks, and driving unmarked vehicles. “It could be anybody,” he says. “It could be gang members. You have every right to shoot at ’em.”
