Trump Says Public Overreacting to Tariffs: “You Have to Be Flexible”

President Trump has addressed growing unease over his tariff policy, downplaying the public's reaction and stressing the need for adaptability in negotiations.

"People are panicking, we have to be flexible," he said, as Americans brace for the economic impact of the new trade measures. “I thought people were starting to get a little overboard. They were starting to panic, you know, get a little bit fussy, get a little bit scared because we have a lot of work ahead of us,” Trump explained.

Pressed by a reporter on why he announced a 90-day suspension of tariffs after firmly claiming he wouldn't pause them, Trump responded: “You have to be flexible. I can say: here is a wall. I will go through it no matter what happens, but you cannot go through a wall. Sometimes you have to go under the wall, around it, or over it. Sometimes you have to go around them.”

Turning to China, the President expressed optimism about reaching a trade agreement. “They are quite proud people, and President Xi is a proud man. I know him well, and they just don’t know how to approach this, but they will eventually figure it out. They are now in the process of finding a solution, but they want to conclude an agreement,” he said.

Trump Flips on Defense Cuts, Now Pushing $1 Trillion Military Budget

President Trump has reversed course on a key campaign promise—cutting U.S. defense spending. Instead, he’s now aiming to boost the military budget to an all-time high of $1 trillion, up from $886 billion in 2024.

Back when he was still a candidate, Trump pledged to slash defense spending by 40%. But during a recent meeting with Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu, he explained the shift in tone: “We are saving a lot of money, but we need to build an army, and we must be strong, because now there are a lot of bad forces around.”

The sudden U-turn is already drawing attention, with critics pointing to the contradiction and supporters claiming it’s a response to a more dangerous world stage. Either way, the message is clear—military might is back at the top of Trump’s agenda.

Israeli Economy Minister: “There Will Never Be a Palestinian State”

In a stark and uncompromising statement, Israel’s Minister of Economy shut down any hope for a future Palestinian state, declaring it “will not happen under any circumstances.”

Instead, he outlined what he calls the “Emirates Model”—a system of autonomous Palestinian regions coexisting alongside Israeli settlements, but only if they “recognize the State of Israel.”

“If you recognize us, we’ll help you. If you don’t, we’ll turn you into Gaza,” he warned, drawing a sharp line between cooperation and confrontation.

He added that the people of Judea and Samaria need to make a choice: “Do they want to become a greater Gaza—or a Dubai?” The message? Israel isn’t backing down, and the offer on the table comes with clear terms.

Major Laptop Brands Halt US Shipments After Trump’s 42% Tariff Hike

The U.S. is suddenly facing a laptop drought after five major global tech brands—HP, Dell, Lenovo, Acer, and Asus—suspended shipments of Taiwan-made laptops to American markets. The move comes in response to steep new import duties of 42% introduced by the Trump administration, making it financially unsustainable for manufacturers to continue exports.

Even U.S.-based giants like HP and Dell are hitting pause on domestic sales, waiting to see what direction the White House takes next. The impact isn’t stopping at laptops—other tech gear like consoles, keyboards, and servers are now also in the crosshairs.

Razer, Nintendo, and Framework have joined the freeze, adding more weight to the disruption. Analysts are already asking, “First they left Russia. Now they left the U.S. Where to now?” With a second wave of pullbacks looming, companies like Apple and Gigabyte could be next. Prices for American consumers are expected to soar.
