Lider większości w Senacie John Thune powiedział w poniedziałek, że prace nad ustawą — która ma już 82 współwnioskodawców — mogą rozpocząć się jeszcze w tym miesiącu. Jednak sekretarz prasowy Białego Domu Karoline Leavitt odmówiła we wtorek odpowiedzi na pytanie, czy Trump popiera ustawę, co może świadczyć o tym, że prezydent waha się, czy pozwolić Kongresowi przejąć inicjatywę w kluczowej kwestii polityki zagranicznej.

Nowe, szeroko zakrojone "wzajemne taryfy ulgowe", które Trump ogłosił podczas środowej ceremonii w ogrodzie różanym, obejmują między innymi 34-proc. cła na import z Chin. To zdaniem analityków grozi eskalacją wojny handlowej, wywołaniem recesji i dalszą erozją malejącego zaufania opinii publicznej do zarządzania gospodarką przez Trumpa. — Większość kosztów ceł ponoszą amerykańscy konsumenci w postaci wyższych cen — powiedział Mark Zandi, główny ekonomista Moody's Analytics.

Whether President Donald Trump is serious about trying to prolong his time in the White House remains up for debate, despite his comment Sunday that he's "not joking" about his interest in a third term in office.

How Marco Rubio is staying above the fray in Signal controversy

Mar 27, 2025 | newsweek.com | Daniel Bush

Secretary of State Marco Rubio has offered more extensive comments on the "mistake" of including a journalist in a group chat about U.S. battle plans than he did in the chat itself. That may have been by design. Rubio drew attention Wednesday by delivering the sharpest criticism yet by a senior administration official of the inadvertent inclusion of a journalist on a group chat on Signal that detailed plans for imminent U.S. strikes against the Houthis in Yemen earlier this month.
