“There’s a reason this came at 4 PM ET, with #markets closed,” said Jorn Fleck, senior director with the Europe Center at the Atlantic Council.

He said the #tariff on the #EU, his area of expertise, is a “very high number” that will be painful for #consumers & #businesses on both sides of the Atlantic.

Many of these tariff rates seem much higher than some economists & policymakers had been expecting.

#Trump says the US will calculate a tariff rate for other countries based on #tariffs & “other forms of cheating” — whatever that means.

He says #China will face a 34% tariff, while the #EU will be 20%. #Japan will be 24% & #India 26%.

#Trump calling the #trade deficit a “national emergency” that threatens US #security, lays out his *legal* argument for his actions.

“They rip us off,”Trump says of the #EU, announcing a 20% #tariff on the 27-nation bloc.

Trump holds a chart showing reciprocal tariff rates for US trading partners & says he will charge half of that much? There is no explanation for the calculations that he is using to justify the #tariffs. Likely because they’re arbitrary revenge tactics.

“Marine Le Pen Banned From French Presidential Election”. https://occidentaldissent.com/2025/04/02/marine-le-pen-banned-from-french-presidential-election/
It is funny how the people who are getting charged with corruption are the ones who have never been in power, and so had authority over nothing but puny stipends.
Also odd that just months after patriot papa Jean-Marie (ora pro nobis) died, the modernizing, moderate daughter is the one who gets into trouble with the government. A sign her strategy was less, or more effective?
Europe, now a solid block of total-liberal states, where dissent against globalism is criminalized? Not only will it be interesting to see what happens in France, but also in Romania, where Simion is now polling about where Georgescu was. Will he not be allowed to compete, either, will there be fraud, or will the system break down?

◾️As of January 1 of this year, Russian employers owed their employees just over 500 million rubles ($5.9 million). At the end of February, this amount rose to 1.2 billion ($14.1 million).

◾️The worst situation is at construction sites, where salary delays have increased 13 times.

[07:20] The Indo Daily: Marine Le Pen’s ruin – is TikTok star Jordan Bardella the future of Europe’s far-right?

For 14 years, Marine Le Pen has led the French far-right, but after being found guilty of embezzling EU funds, her political career could be over. Ahead of the verdict, she said judges had “life or death power” over her far-right movement and now barred from running for office, her hopes of finally winning the presidency look to be in ruins.
