▌U.S. Senate passes Republican budget blueprint to advance Trump 's tax cut agenda
The U.S. Senate passed a Republican budget blueprint last Saturday aiming to extend President Trump's 2017 tax cuts and significantly cut government spending. The Senate voted 51:48 to pass the "budget settlement" move, which would allow Republicans to bypass the filibusters that the Senate needs 60 votes to support, and could pass Trump's tax, border security and military priorities later this year without Democrats voted for. The bill will be submitted to the Republican-led House of Representatives, which is expected to be considered this week. Nonpartisan analysts say that if Trump's agenda is passed, it will add about $5.7 trillion in federal government debt over the next decade. Senate Republicans believe the measure costs $1.5 trillion and said the impact of extending existing tax policies that were scheduled to expire at the end of this year should not be included in the cost of the measure.
▌Musk publicly sarcastic US trade consultant: either it 's conceit or has a brain problem
According to a report by World News on April 5, Musk, a billionaire who served as head of the Trump administration's efficiency department, rarely publicly criticized people in the Trump administration's core circle when the tariff war caused a plunge in Wall Street stock market. Peter Navarro, a senior adviser to Trump's trade and manufacturing industry, tried to downplay market concerns caused by losses caused by tariff wars in the past two days on CNN on the 4th. Musk publicly mocked Navarro on his social platform X after Navarro insisted that tariffs would eventually win a good result. He responded to a post that mentioned that Navarro had a PhD in economics at Harvard University, saying: "Having a PhD in economics at Harvard is not a good thing, but a bad thing. It leads to conceit or a problem with his brain." One user responded that Navarro was "correct", while Musk replied: He "has nothing achieved."
▌Former U.S. Treasury Secretary approves tariff policy: the largest self-harm wound ever
It was learned on April 6 local time that after Hasset, director of the White House National Economic Commission, made remarks that "tariffs will lead to a decline in US consumer prices" on the same day, former US Treasury Secretary Lawrence Summers said that he did not agree with Hassett's statement. He believes that US President Trump's tariff policy is the biggest self-harm wound to the US economy in history. Summers said tariffs will lead to higher prices, aggravate inflation, thereby reducing people's consumption capacity, and also reducing employment opportunities. On April 2, US President Trump signed an executive order on so-called "reciprocal tariffs" at the White House, announcing that the United States imposes a 10% "minimum benchmark tariff" on trading partners and imposes higher tariffs on some trading partners. The US government's move has been opposed and criticized by many parties around the world.
