BREAKING: Trump Poised to Unleash Sweeping Global Tariffs, Urges Advisors to Go Big

April 2nd, dubbed “Liberation Day” by Donald Trump himself, is set to become a flashpoint in global trade and diplomacy. According to multiple senior officials, Trump is expected to announce sweeping tariffs that will target every country in the world — a dramatic escalation of his longstanding economic nationalist agenda.

I am covering the tariffs announcement and how it will impact you very closely, but I cannot do it alone. Please consider subscribing today to support my work and allow me to continue pursuing the truth and holding our political leaders accountable:

The decision, which insiders say is being finalized currently, will likely begin with a 25% tariff on all imported automobiles, a move that could rattle both the U.S. economy and foreign markets.

The United States currently imports roughly half of its automobiles, meaning consumers could see significant price spikes almost immediately.

When asked aboard Air Force One whether the new tariffs would hit 10 to 15 countries, Trump responded bluntly:

Reporter: On the tariffs, you’re expected to hit 10–15 countries, is that right?
Trump: No
Reporter: All countries?
Trump: You would start with all countries.

That exchange alone has sent shockwaves through the international community. Within hours, Chinese State Media issued a rare joint statement, declaring that China, Japan, and South Korea would coordinate a united response to Trump’s tariffs, whatever form they ultimately take.

This move is not just an economic one — it's geopolitical. Trump is actively pushing long-standing U.S. allies into closer alignment with major rivals like China, in real time.

What We Know So Far

• Automobile Tariffs: A 25% tariff on all imported vehicles could be the first domino.

• Blanket Global Tariffs: Trump wants tariffs across the board, but details remain unclear.

• Internal Divisions: Behind the scenes, Trump is demanding broader, harsher tariffs. His advisors, however, are urging caution — warning of possible inflation spikes, stock market instability, and increased recession risk.

Markets are already jittery. Economists warn that even rumors of blanket tariffs can send shockwaves through global supply chains, prompting price increases, diplomatic tensions, and retaliatory trade wars.
