Thank you, f*ckface for instilling confidence in no one.

Meanwhile back at clown headquarters even the Mad King’s advisors have no idea  what Dictator On Day One will decree on his “liberation day”

Trump officials, allies grow anxious about April 2 tariffs

The president continues to throw curveballs at businesses — and even his own team.

 

 

Just days out from Trump’s April 2 announcement of global tariffs, which he has hailed as “Liberation Day,” even those closest to the president — from Vice President JD Vance to his chief of staff Susie Wiles and his own Cabinet officials — have privately indicated that they’re unsure exactly what the boss will do, according to three people who have spoken with them.

While some details of the administration’s plan for what Trump has dubbed “reciprocal tariffs” on global trading partners are starting to trickle out, the president has at times upended them or floated contradictory policies that are keeping everyone — even his inner circle — guessing.

“No one knows what the f-ck is going on,” said one White House ally close to Trump’s inner circle, granted anonymity to speak freely. “What are they going to tariff? Who are they gonna tariff and at what rates? Like, the very basic questions haven’t been answered yet.”

Indeed, while the White House is projecting confidence publicly, multiple administration officials, as well as top allies on the outside, are privately concerned that next week’s roll-out could be as rocky as when he imposed tariffs on Canada, Mexico and China on March 4, worsening a rout on stocks that began in mid-February. Though the S&P 500 has since regained some ground, all of its previous gains since Election Day have been erased.
 

Part of that is because Trump continues to threaten to plow ahead with an expansive tariff rollout, siding with the trade protectionists in his administration despite warnings from other advisers of the negative economic impacts. Inflation rose at a higher-than-expected rate last month, the Commerce Department disclosed on Friday, even before the potential onslaught of higher prices from the sweeping tariffs.
 

But it’s also because the president continues to throw curveballs at businesses — and even his own team.

Case in point: Wednesday’s decision to slap the auto industry with 25 percent tariffs. While expected in some fashion in the near future, the announcement came together so last minute that the White House wasn’t fully prepared and had to delay afternoon programming as they sought to finalize the plan, according to two people familiar with the roll-out.

The White House also didn’t brief industry stakeholders in the U.S. or abroad beforehand — though a White House official argued that if they were “smart” they would have known it was coming, since Trump himself issued a public warning.

Part of the uncertainty stems from the president seeming to undermine his own team at times. After Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent and Trump economic adviser Kevin Hassett said in recent weeks that only about 10 or 15 countries — or the “dirty 15,” as Bessent put it — would face reciprocal tariffs, Trump said Wednesday that actually every country will be hit with a tariff.

 

The president similarly undercut Lutnick earlier this month, after the Commerce secretary suggested Canada and Mexico might avoid the full 25 percent Trump had threatened over border security and fentanyl — though two people close to the president said Lutnick was freelancing and has since been told to stay on message. Trump went ahead and slapped that duty on the two North American neighbors on March 4, but then paused much of it a day later and exempted certain goods — a rollercoaster of announcements that left many businesses and investors unsure about how the new tariffs would work.

Indeed, Trump has continued to shift the scope, targets and timeline of his tariffs at a whiplash-inducing pace. The duties he promised, pre-inauguration, to levy on Canada and Mexico his first day in office shifted to Feb. 1, then Feb. 4, then March 4, before being largely rolled back until April 2. There is little clarity about what parts of those tariffs — which could hit more than $1 trillion worth of trade — will go into effect next week.

….

Needless to say, the president’s shifting desires have made it difficult to plan, as Cabinet officials have indicated in private. In recent days, Lutnick told U.S. trading partners seeking clarity that he would try to give them a heads up the day before April 2, telling them that the details are too fluid at the moment to preview. Bessent has also admitted to people that the final tariff regime remains a moving target, according to a person who has spoken to him.

The internal uncertainty also stems in part from an ongoing administration divide on the tariff strategy and the tug of war to influence Trump in recent weeks. All of the president’s aides have vociferously defended his tariff drive, which has at times surprised Wall Street. But there are still differences of opinion over approach; Bessent, Wiles and even Vance — who has aspirations to run for president himself in 2028 — have been pushing for either a narrower tariffs regime, or for the president to make final decisions quickly and in an orderly way so that businesses can plan.

On the other hand, Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick and Navarro are said to be encouraging Trump’s long-standing tariff fixation.

The divisions have caused tensions. While Navarro is a genuine tariff believer, Lutnick — who has a close relationship with Trump and enjoys influence that others in the Cabinet do not, as of yet — is widely seen as supporting whatever Trump wants to ingratiate himself with the president, a dynamic that has infuriated others in the administration.

“He goes into the Oval and tells the president whatever he wants to hear,” said the first White House ally, who called Lutnick a “f-cking nightmare” and argued he does so without consideration of the economic consequences.

Over the past few weeks, the more tariff-cautious faction in the administration has tried gently to pull Trump back from blanket, indiscriminate tariffs.

You posted almost the entire article. That's not the 'relevant bits', that's just spamming the board which is what he complained about. 

And you're lying again, i've never "admitted" that i "don't read".  I actually read quite a bit.  More than you apperently.  and my response proves i do. 

Jezuz kid, no wonder people don't respect you. IF you're going to lie that brazenly at least try not to do it where the proof you're wrong is a few posts above  

And stop spamming the site and next time whatever quote or paragraph you think is really relevant then go ahead but don't post the whole thing and expect people to dig through it and try to guess what your point is.  IF you have a brain use it, only the stupid just mass spam and hope people figure out what the hell they're talking about.

Let's talk about out the untouched topic here. If Goldberg thought he was seeing classified information:

• Why didn't he notify those in the chat and leave?
• Why did he keep screenshots?

It seems to me that Goldberg used the opportunity of this mistake to gather information he thought he wasn't allowed to have with the intent of disseminating that information to the public. That would be a major violation of federal law. The fact that he was wrong about it being classified is immaterial. He intended to keep classified information and sell it via his magazine.

That's nonsense in all regards.

A. Those plans are always classified because if the information gets out missions fail and our people die. Hegseth was even boasting about operational security while breaking it. Goldberg was not wrong about the nature of the information. The Trump administration is telling you an incredibly obvious lie, and you're willing to swallow it down--along with your dignity. 

B. Goldberg followed all ethical standards and did not release any information that would jeopardize military operations or the nation. He actively chose to not publish harmful information. He also voluntarily left the chat after confirming that it was real. Let's be clear: he could have stayed there and watched those oblivious buffoons for months. Hell, he probably should have. But he took a very high road instead.

C. Every shit bag on that chat knows the rules for sharing classified information outside of secure channels. Every one of them. And still, when they saw Hegseth doing exactly what they knew to be wrong, not a single one of them spoke up and said, "Hey, let's move this to a secure channel." That's what you should be worried about.

Oh he was soooo ethical? Bullshit. He had a story and his greedy ass published the story. If it is classified information, as you say, then he stole and disseminated that information for money. At the minimum he violated laws about classified information. At worst, he committed treason.

Lol. He did not "steal" it, dummy. Hegseth literally gave it to him, by choosing to post it in that chat against all standards for handling information of that nature. They invited him to the chat. It's the digital equivalent of speaking about classified topics after you invite a journalist into the room. 

Goldberg broke no laws. He behaved ethically. Don't try to shift the blame to someone else just because Trump's clown posse is exactly as incompetent as we told you they were.

Eh.... he initially claimed that the information he had was too sensitive to share, tried to characterize it as "war plans", but then turned around and shared it the next day.

I wouldn't say he behaved ethically as a journalist at all. 

His interest was sensationalization and creating a big story.

It's not against standards. In fact, there is a Biden era memo that endorses using Signal.

However, you are trying to dismiss the fact that Goldberg had a responsibility to inform and dismiss himself from the chat and his retention of materials he believed were classified is a violation of law. His selling of that information (that he believed was classified) is also illegal.

Senior members of Donald Trump’s cabinet have been involved in a serious security breach while discussing secret military plans for recent US attacks on the Houthi armed group in Yemen.

In an extraordinary blunder, key figures in the Trump administration – including the vice-president, JD Vance, the defence secretary Pete Hegseth, the secretary of state, Marco Rubio, and the director of national intelligence, Tulsi Gabbard – used the commercial chat app Signal to convene and discuss plans – while also including a prominent journalist in the group.

Signal is not approved by the US government for sharing sensitive information.

 

Buttery males!!🤣

I love it. The economy's in the shitter, and we have 30 million illegal aliens roaming the country as guests of the democrat party (all thanks to Biden), and all you diapered cultists can do is cry about a nothing burger. 

Well done, comrades, WELL done! lol
