If the value of the Canadian dollar and Mexican peso tumble against the dollar, then U.S. exports will become more expensive while Canadian and Mexican imports become cheaper, defeating Trump's goal of closing the trade deficit. Benny doesn't understand this, so he's celebrating.
Benny Johnson@bennyjohnson

Immediately following Trump's tariff announcement, the value of both the Canadian dollar and the Mexican peso are in freefall. Don’t mess with the United States of America.

If there is any doubt that the cost of the tariff is passed through to consumers, the price of propane (to heat my house) just went up by the amount of the tariff

@christoaivalis These people weren’t complaining about Paula White’s cozy political relationship with Trump.

Spoiler alert — even US military spending is only about 3.5 percent of GDP, and no, Trump will not raise it to 5 percent.
Nick Schifrin@nickschifrin

.@POTUS to @Davos: "I will ask all @NATO members to increase spending up to 5%."

@saikatc @ArmandDoma Primarily, he’s looking for a pardon. In practice, that may also involve becoming a Republican or an independent, but it’s following from the first main cause.

Eric Adams is clearly running as an indecent or a Republican, right? He’s seen the primary polling

The Fraternal Order of Police endorsed Trump for president. They congratulated him on his win in November. Here is what they had to say when I just asked them about Trump releasing HUNDREDS of violent felons who assaulted cops: "We don't have a statement about that."

Every time a Republican loses in the future, a mob will try to violently overturn the results with the assurance that they'll be pardoned by the next Republican White House. But hey, he sits down for interviews!

@McCormackJohn Also consider the endorsements of just about every police union in this past election. They helped make this happen, and with their eyes wide open about it.

J.D. Vance on January 11: “If you committed violence on that day, obviously you shouldn’t be pardoned.” Trump’s January 20 executive order: “full, complete and unconditional pardon” even for people who beat cops with flagpoles on January 6, 2021.

Shelby Talcott@ShelbyTalcott

Per the text of the EO, Trump commuted the sentences of 14 individuals & issued “a full, complete and unconditional pardon to all other individuals convicted of offenses related to events that occurred at or near the United States Capitol” on J6: Link: whitehouse.gov/presidential-a…

The remarkable thing about this story is that Biden was correct, and Mike Johnson was wrong: he did not sign an executive order pausing LNG exports to Europe, as Johnson claims. The US had $43 billion in LNG exports to Europe last year.
Bonchie@bonchieredstate

In which Mike Johnson recounts how Joe Biden had no idea he had “signed” an executive order dealing with LNG exports. This is crazy. We haven’t had a president the last four years. Just a shadowy cabal of handlers.

Among those who've started commuting by subway as a result of congestion pricing: the Midtown diner owner who nearly convinced Kathy Hochul to kill the toll entirely. It takes him about 25 min from Astoria. apnews.com/article/mta-co…

Nothing will make Donald Trump back down on his tariffs faster than cutting the flow of Canadian critical minerals to the US. If Trump hurts Canadian jobs and workers, Americans will hurt, too. Pierre Poilievre says he’ll do nothing. He doesn’t want to upset his backers — billionaires Elon Musk and Trump. They know he’s got billionaires’ backs, and working class Canadians will pay for it. It's time to fight for Canada and Canadian jobs.
