中國對美國農產品征收額外的 15% 進口稅，包括豬肉、家禽、牛肉和大豆，是的，在國內很難關注我們在這場關稅貿易戰中已經看到的所有微小步驟，到目前為止，我們實際上一直在談論三個貿易夥伴，最大的是加拿大、墨西哥和中國，正如你提到的，中國對美國出口征收的報複性關稅今天開始生效，誰是所有關稅的 PID，例如，我與兩家供應商交談過，他們說，他們的客戶沃爾瑪一直在向他們施加更大的壓力，要求他們承擔所有成本，他們告訴我，現在 20% 的關稅對他們來說非常困難，甚至不可能，他們說這是特朗普 1.0 關稅的頂峰。

美國從未預料到中國已經發動了無情的反擊令人震驚的升級北京已阻止 15 家美國公司使用關鍵的中國技術，並對美國能源出口征收新關稅，這一信息響亮而明確中國不會在緊張局勢達到曆史最高水平的情況下退縮這是貿易戰失控的時刻嗎，隨著恐慌在華盛頓蔓延，一個問題仍然存在，美國將如何應對今天加入我們，我們將徹底解決這一切，但在深入之前，請喜歡這個視頻並訂閱有關最新地緣政治更新的更多見解中國以 15% 的關稅反擊特朗普關稅貿易和關稅戰沒有贏家我們需要的不是更多的關稅，而是他們的 loock我們敦促美國糾正其行動並停止將貿易問題武器化中國已經反抗唐納德特朗普總統的激進關稅，對包括雞肉、豬肉、大豆和牛肉在內的重要美國農業出口征收 15% 的稅，貿易戰的緊張局勢螺旋式上升華爾街顫抖周一，投資者匆忙撤資，擔心特朗普不斷升級的關稅戰將帶來毀滅性的經濟後果，我們也在考慮這個問題，我們正在談論對中國征收 10% 的關稅，因為他們正在向墨西哥和加拿大運送芬太尼。

中國政府上周公布的報複性打擊是對特朗普決定從 3 月 4 日起將中國進口商品關稅翻倍至 20% 的直接反擊，這是一次罕見的讓步，中國商務部宣布，已經在途的商品將免於報複性關稅，但直到 4 月 12 日，對外國商品征收關稅仍然是特朗普強硬經濟戰略的基石，他堅持認為這些高額的進口稅將填滿美國政府的金庫，保護國內產業免受外國競爭，迫使全球大國屈服於他的意誌一係列有爭議的問題，包括移民和販毒，我們將與中國舉行一些很好的會晤，我們已經計劃了會議，呃，我們會看看會發生什麽，但這隻是開場白，如果我們不能與中國達成協議，那麽關稅將非常非常高，現在特朗普正準備在周三進一步升級，他將取消 2018 年首次征收的 25% 鋼鐵關稅的例外情況，同時上周將鋁關稅從 10% 提高到 25%，特朗普迅速接連對加拿大和墨西哥進口產品征收關稅，但其中許多產品被推遲了 30 天，但他的下一步行動可能會在下個月進一步震動全球貿易，他可能會推出互惠關稅，這是一項全麵的政策，旨在與外國政府對我們的商品征收的高額進口稅相匹配，他們似乎並沒有試圖升級，他們並沒有卷入一場口水戰，你知道的，不是說唐納德特朗普你知道這個那個或罵他名字或諸如此類的事情所以他們隻是在等待和觀察我認為他們意識到你無法控製唐納德特朗普你隻能簡單地做好準備經濟學家正在敲響警鍾警告這些關稅將不可避免地推高美國消費者的成本同時扼殺我們之中的創新公司免受全球競爭報複仍然是一個迫在眉睫的威脅美國農民是特朗普最忠誠的投票集團之一成為特朗普第一任期貿易戰期間的明顯目標北京對美國農產品征收關稅給農業部門造成嚴重打擊美國農產品對中國的出口暴跌，但在2020年休戰後才出現脆弱的複蘇，當時中國承諾增加購買但反彈是短暫的美國農產品對中國的出口在2022年飆升至380億美元，但隨後跌至根據美國農業部的數據，2023 年的出口額為 290 億美元，去年的出口額下降幅度更大，為 250 億美元，這種下滑趨勢一直持續到 2024 年 1 月，當時出口額比去年同期暴跌 56%，以緩解金融危機。特朗普向農民投入了數百億美元的納稅人資金，以彌補他們的損失，但貿易戰重新點燃了問題，美國農民還能承受多久的交火，貿易戰沒有贏家，我們堅決反對這種不必要的增加，我們確實認為這違反了世貿組織規則，這就是中國向世貿組織提起申訴的原因，我還要強調，貿易戰沒有贏家，中國對特朗普政府不斷升級的貿易戰進行了嚴厲譴責，外交部發言人楊潔篪譴責加征關稅是一場不該打、打不贏的魯莽戰鬥，但隨著緊張局勢加劇，真正的問題是誰會退縮，中國商務部長黃之鋒首先以挑釁的語氣宣布，脅迫和威脅對中國不起作用，也嚇不倒中國，他的警告是顯而易見的，中國捍衛自身利益的決心是堅定不移的，沒有貿易戰的贏家我們決不接受壓力和威脅，堅決維護國家主權、安全和發展利益自今年1月特朗普政府上任以來，已兩次提高對中國進口產品的關稅，引發北京迅速報複世界兩大經濟體之間的裂痕隨著每一項新的關稅和限製而加深黃之鋒明確表示，如果美方在這條錯誤道路上越走越遠，中國不會退縮，我們將繼續以牙還牙他發誓，盡管麵臨越來越大的經濟挑戰，我們仍將戰鬥到底中國正加倍推進全球擴張黃之鋒承認中國出口商麵臨壓力，但透露北京方麵正積極推動企業參加國際貿易展會，擴大影響力與此同時，政府正在加大對出口信貸的財政支持押注貿易、服務和電子商務我們不會把雞蛋放在一個籃子裏他說，但中國的戰略足以抵禦中國遭遇的風暴嗎用報複性關稅回擊美國北京此舉當然是為了回應特朗普總統對中國進口產品征收 10% 的關稅，中國占據強勢地位，本周有望與美國就這些額外關稅進行談判，當然這些關稅將對中國企業產生影響，盡管我們經常聽到這樣的觀點，即在國內為這些關稅買單的是我們企業，是我們消費者，中國經濟麵臨著一場艱苦的戰鬥，房地產市場苦苦掙紮，股市表現低迷，社會福利薄弱，新冠疫情導致的失業持續拖累了經濟增長，國家發展和改革委員會主任鄭山承認，2025 年經濟預測徘徊在 4.6% 至 4.8% 之間，低於政府雄心勃勃的 5% 左右的目標，以應對這種放緩，鄭山透露，北京正在起草一項專門的行動計劃，以刺激消費支出和投資細節仍然很少，但有一點是清楚的，中國正準備深入挖掘。財政部長蘭法安承諾為陷入困境的地方政府提供更有力的支持，並在教育、社會保障和醫療保健方麵進行大規模投資。我們將確保每一分錢都花得物有所值。他保證，強調中央政府為政策實施留下了充足的空間。中國切斷了你美國關鍵公司的出口，如果你不在美國生產你的產品。然而，在特朗普政府的領導下，你將支付關稅，在某些情況下，關稅相當高。中國對美國進行了有力的反擊，將 15 家美國公司列入其出口管製名單，有效地切斷了它們與關鍵的中國軍民兩用技術之間的聯係。同時，它又將 10 家美國公司列入其不可靠實體名單，加劇了正在進行的貿易戰的緊張局勢。其中最嚴重的受害者是美國醫療設備巨頭 Illumina，現在麵臨著徹底禁止其基因測序儀進口到中國的禁令。這一舉措正值其兩大中國競爭對手麥肯錫全球研究院和華大基因被列入美國一項法案之際，該法案以國家安全為由限製與多家生物技術公司的業務往來。凱投宏觀中國經濟部負責人 Julian Evans Pritchard 分析了北京的《反恐精英》，指出中國的回應旨在傳遞一個信息，即他們不會被欺負，但同時調整他們的回應，希望避免事態進一步升級，中國非常聰明，他們選擇了對美國公司非常敏感的美國出口產品，你可以肯定，這些公司現在正在向特朗普先生抱怨。中國對美國化石燃料產品征收進口稅，對煤炭進口和液化天然氣征收 15% 的費用，同時對原油進口征收 10% 的關稅，任何進口美國化石燃料的組織現在都需要繳納新稅，這會增加使用美國化石燃料的企業的運營成本能源供應中國是世界上最大的煤炭進口國，主要依賴印度尼西亞其煤炭需求俄羅斯澳大利亞和蒙古也發揮著關鍵作用作為供應商中國自 2018 年以來，根據中國海關的信息，中國對美國液化天然氣進口量實現了穩步增長中國消耗的美國化石燃料與 2023 年的整體能源分布相比微不足道，其進口原油中隻有 1.7% 來自美國，這使得華盛頓最新的關稅不過是空洞的威脅貿易經濟學家麗貝卡·哈丁警告說，北京並不缺少替代品，俄羅斯急切地卸載折扣石油以資助其戰爭努力，同時，美國作為世界上最大的液化天然氣出口國，在歐洲和英國並不缺少買家，但這場貿易戰不僅僅是關於能源2月份中國對美國農業機械皮卡和大型汽車征收 10% 的關稅進行了反擊，但由於其大部分汽車進口來自歐洲和日本，對中國消費者的影響將可以忽略不計同時北京一直在積極投資國內農機行業，不僅使用關稅報複，但作為加強其生產和糧食安全的一項精心策劃的舉措，這是眾所周知的 300 億美元，曆史表明，中美合作有益，對抗有害，中國的反攻不止於關稅，現在它把目光轉向了美國科技公司，對穀歌發起反壟斷調查，雖然細節仍然很少，但這家搜索巨頭自 2010 年以來一直被中國封鎖，隻有通過應用程序分發的少量存在，如果中國完全切斷聯係，對穀歌的財務打擊將是微乎其微的，但向華盛頓發出的信息非常明確，貿易戰正在升級，問題是誰會先退縮，現在美國中國芯片戰爭即將升級，現在中國已決定限製兩種金屬的出口，這兩種金屬不僅對生產半導體而且對電信設備和電動汽車都至關重要，除了進口限製之外，中國還對 25 種稀有金屬實施了嚴格的出口管製，這些金屬對全球電子和軍事生產至關重要，中國主導著這些關鍵材料占世界精煉總產量的近 90% 鎢被列入新的限製名單，因為它很難獲得，而且對航空航天製造至關重要北京實施的出口法規專門針對金屬產品，但不影響中國進口用於製造高端半導體、航空航天技術和藥品的關鍵金屬從以前的情況來看，出口水平將大幅下降，因為公司在獲得進口許可證時麵臨大量延誤，而審查過程通常需要數周時間，同時為了確保其稀土金屬供應，美國已向烏克蘭提供 3000 億美元的支持計劃，以換取金屬裝運的保證然而，在特朗普與烏克蘭總統弗拉基米爾·紮林斯基舉行了一場充滿爭議和破裂的會晤後，這些談判遇到了重大障礙，雙方都部署了經濟武器，全球貿易戰沒有緩和的跡象在後果變得無法承受之前，美國和中國還能走多遠？盧比奧說，美國國際開發署的清理工作已經完成，該機構 83% 的項目已經消失。國務卿馬可·盧比奧說，美國國際開發署的削減工作已經完成，該援助機構隻剩下原來項目的 16% 左右，這是一項全麵且前所未有的改革，取消了 5,000 多個合同。國務卿馬可·盧比奧周一宣布，特朗普政府已經完成了對已有六十年曆史的美國國際開發署為期六周的項目清理，美國國際開發署削減了 83% 的業務，宣告美國對外援助時代的結束。盧比奧證實，剩餘的 18% 的援助和發展項目將轉交給國務院。這是盧比奧在 X 上的一篇帖子中宣布的，也是他為數不多的公開聲明之一。曆史性地放棄美國對外援助 由唐納德·特朗普總統任命的國務院官員和埃隆·馬斯克的政府效率部共同進行的一項變革 總督團隊表達了感激之情 盧比奧承認總督和我們辛勤工作的工作人員長時間工作以實現這項遲來的、曆史性的對外援助改革 1 月 6 日，這些人質 大約 1,500 人要求赦免 是的，完全赦免 此舉是在特朗普 1 月 20 日發布行政命令之後采取的，該命令凍結了所有對外援助資金，並對用於美國海外援助和發展的數百億美元進行了詳盡的審查，指控其中大部分支出是浪費的，並助長了自由主義議程 特朗普發起了對美國全球影響力的重大重組，審查正式結束 盧比奧的職位證實了這一驚人的結果，估計有 5,200 美國國際開發署取消了 6,200 個項目，這些項目花費了數百億美元，但這些項目並沒有達到美國的核心國家利益，在某些情況下甚至損害了美國的核心國家利益。盧比奧在與國會協商後宣布，我們打算將我們保留的剩餘 18% 的項目交給國務院進行更有效的管理。他繼續說道，然而，民主黨議員和批評人士已經敲響警鍾，稱此舉是非法的。他們認為，關閉如此規模的國會資助項目需要國會的明確批準。這場戰鬥可能才剛剛開始。美國正忙著作出回應，而中國的反擊比以往任何時候都要猛烈。

US PANICS As China STRIKES Back Against Tariffs, What's Happening?

China slapped an additional 15% import tax on American farm products including pork poultry beef and soybeans yeah it's kind of hard to pay attention at home to all the Tiny Steps that we have seen already in this tariffs trade war and so far we've really been talking about three trading partners the biggest ones Canada Mexico and China and as you mentioned China's retaliatory tariffs on
American exports kicked in today who PID for all the tariffs uh for example I spoke to two suppliers who said that uh their customer Walmart has been putting
more pressure on them to take on all the costs and they've been telling me that it's just so difficult if not impossible for them to take on now 20% tariff they
said this is on top of the Trump 1.0 tariffs the US never saw it coming China has Unleashed a ruthless Counter Strike in a stunning escalation Beijing has
blocked 15 American companies from
critical Chinese Technologies and
slapped new tariffs on US Energy exports
the message is loud and clear China
won't back down with tensions at an
all-time high is this the moment the
trade War spirals out of control and as
Panic spreads through Washington one
question remains how will the US respond
join us today as we break it all down
but before diving in like this video And
subscribe for more insights on the
latest geopolitical updates China
Strikes Back at Trump tariffs with 15%
levies trade and tariff Wars have no
winners what is needed are not more
tariffs but their loock we urge the US
to correct its action and stop weaponizing trade issues China has rebelled against President Donald
Trump's aggressive tariffs unleashing a
15% tax on vital American Agricultural
exports including chicken pork soybeans
and beef as tensions in the trade War
spiral Wall Street trembled on Monday
with investors hastily pulling their
money fearing the devastating economic
Fallout of Trump's escalating tariff
battles how much we're thinking about
that too we're talking about a uh a
tariff of 10% on China based on the fact
that they're sending fentanyl to Mexico
and Canada the Chinese government's
retaliatory strike unveiled last week
was a direct counter punch to Trump's
decision to double tariffs on Chinese
Imports to 20% as of March 4th in a rare
concession China's Commerce Ministry
announced that Goods already on route
would be spared from the retaliatory
tariffs though only until April 12th
tariffs on foreign Goods remain a
Cornerstone of Trump's Hardline economic
strategy he insists these steep import
taxes will fill US Government coffers
Shield domestic industries from foreign
competition and force Global powers to
bend to his will on a range of
contentious issues including immigration
and drug trafficking we'll have some
good meetings with China we have
meetings planned and uh we'll see what happens
but that was just a an opening Salvo if
if we can't make a deal with China then
the tariffs will be very very
substantial now Trump is preparing to
escalate even further on Wednesday he
will strip away exceptions on the 25%
steel tariffs first imposed in 2018
while simultaneously hiking aluminum
tariffs from 10% to 25% last week in
Rapid Fire succession Trump slapped
tariffs on Canadian and Mexican Imports
only to delay many of them for 30 days
but his next move could shake global
trade even more next month he May roll
out reciprocal tariffs a sweeping policy
designed to match the Steep import taxes
imposed by Foreign governments on us
Goods they're not seemingly trying to
escalate they're not getting into a war
of words not you know saying Donald
Trump's you know this that or calling
him names or anything like that so
they're just waiting and watching I
think they came to the realization you
cannot control Donald Trump you can just
simply prepare economists are sounding
the alarm warning that these tariffs will inevitably drive up cost for American cons consumers while stifling Innovation Among Us companies shielded
from Global competition retaliation remains a looming threat with America's
Farmers one of Trump's most loyal voting blocks becoming an obvious Target during Trump's first-term trade Wars Beijing has wielded tariffs against American
farm products delivering a severe blow to the agricultural sector us Farm
exports to China plummeted only to see a fragile recovery after a 2020 truce when China pledged to ramp up purchases but the rebound was short lived American Farm exports to China soared to $38 billion in 2022 only to Tumble to $29 billion in 2023 and an even steeper decline to $25 billion last year according to the US Department of Agriculture the downward spiral continued into January 2024 when exports alone plunged 56% from the same period a year before to soften the financial Devastation Trump funneled tens of billions of taxpayer dollar to Farmers to compensate for their losses but as the trade War reignites the question looms how much longer can America's
Farmers afford to be caught in the
crossfire there are no winners in a
trade War we are firmly opposed to this
unwarranted increase and we do believe
that this is in violation of the WTO
rules so that's why China is filing a
complaint at this WTO and let me also emphasize that there is no winner in a trade War China has Unleashed a fierce rebuke against the
Trump administration's escalating trade
War foreign Ministry spokesperson ly Jan
condemned the Tariff hikes as a reckless
battle that should not be fought and
cannot be won but as tensions Mount the
real question remains who will blink
First Chinese Commerce Minister Wong
winow matched the defiant tone declaring
coercion and threats will not work on
China nor will they scare China his
warning was unmistakable China's
determination to defend its interests is
unswerving there are no winners in a
trade War we will never accept pressure
and a threats and will resolutely
Safeguard our national sovereignty
security and development interests since
taking office in January the Trump
Administration has raised tariffs on
Chinese Imports twice triggering Swift
retaliation from Beijing the rift
between the world's two largest
economies deepens with every new Duty
and restriction Wong made it clear China
will not back down if the American side
goes further down this wrong path we
will continue to respond in kind he
vowed we will fight to the end despite
mounting economic challenges China is
doubling down on global expansion Wong
acknowledged the pressure on Chinese
exporters but revealed that Beijing is
aggressively pushing companies to enter
international trade shows and expand
their reach meanwhile the government is
ramping up financial support for export
credit betting on trade and services and
e-commerce we do not put all our eggs in one basket
he said but is China's strategy enough
to weather the storm china hit back at
the US with retaliatory tariffs Beijing
doing this in response of course to
president Trump's 10% tariff on Chinese
Imports a position of strength as it
looks to potentially negotiate uh with
the US this week on these additional
tariffs of course these tariffs will
have an impact on Chinese businesses
although we often hear the perspective
that it's us businesses it's us
consumers that pay the grunt of these
tariffs domestically China's economy
faces an uphill battle a struggling
housing market sluggish stock performance weak social welfare and
lingering job losses from the covid-19 pandemic have slowed growth the head of
the national development and Reform Commission Jung Shan admitted that 2025
economic forecasts hover between 4.6% and 4.8% falling short of the government's ambitious around 5% Target to counter
this slowdown Jung revealed that Beijing
is drafting A specialized plan of action
to stimulate consumer spending and
investment details remain scarce but one
thing is clear China is preparing to dig
deep Finance Minister Lan faan pledged
stronger support for struggling local
governments and massive investments in
education Social Security and Healthcare
we will make sure that every coin is
well spent he assured emphasizing that
the central government has left ample
room for policy to be implemented China
cuts off key you us companies if you
don't make your product in America
however under the Trump Administration
you will pay a tariff and in some cases
a rather large one China has struck back
forcefully against the United States
placing 15 American companies on its
export control list effectively cutting
them off from crucial Chinese dual use
Technologies at the same time it has
added 10 more us companies to its unreliable entity list escalating tensions in the ongoing trade War one of the most significant casualties is US
medical equipment giant Illumina now
facing an outright ban on the import of
its genetic sequencers into China the
move comes as two of its major Chinese
competitors MGI and bgi were included in
a US Bill to restrict business with multiple biotech firms on National Security grounds Julian Evans Pritchard head of China economics at Capital economics analyzed beijing's Counter-Strike stating that China's
response was designed to send a message that they're not going to be pushed
around but at the same time calibrate their response in the hopes of trying to
avoid escalating things further and China is very smart they've picked US
exports that are very sensitive to us firms uh and you can be sure that those
firms are giving an earful to Mr Trump
right now China established import taxes
on American fossil fuel products by
placing 15% fees on coal Imports and
liquefied natural gas while applying a
10% Duty on crude oil imports any
organization importing us fossil fuels
now requires payment of the new tax
which drives up operation costs for
businesses using American Energy
supplies China the world's largest coal
importer relies primarily on Indonesia
forits coal needs Russia Australia and Mongolia also play key roles as suppliers China has enacted a steady
growth pattern in US LNG Imports since 2018 based on information from Chinese Customs China consumes minimal us fossil fuels compared to its overall energy
distribution in 2023 only 1.7% of its imported crude oil came from America making Washington's latest tariffs
little more than an empty threat trade Economist Rebecca Harding warns that Beijing has no shortage of Alternatives with Russia eagerly offloading discounted oil to fund its war effort meanwhile the us as the world's largest LNG exporter has no shortage of buyers
in Europe and the UK but this trade War isn't just about energy in February China struck back with a 10% tariff on
us agricultural Machinery pickup trucks
and large cars yet with most of its
vehicle Imports coming from Europe and
Japan the impact on Chinese consumers
will be negligible at the same time
Beijing has been aggressively investing
in its domestic farm machinery industry
using tariffs not just as retaliation but as a calculated move to fortify its production and food security which is 30 billion which is already known history has shown that China and the United States benefit from cooperation but suffer from confrontation and China's counter offensive doesn't stop at tariffs it has now turned its sights on American Tech launching an anti-monopoly probe into
Google while details remain scarce the
search giant has been blocked in China
since 2010 with only a minor presence
through app distribution if China Cuts
ties completely the financial blow to
Google would be minimal but the message
to Washington is crystal clear the trade
war is escalating the question is who
will blink first now the US China Chip
War is all set to escalate now China has
decided to restrict exports of two
metals that are crucial in producing not
only semiconductors but also Telecom
devices and electric vehicles Beyond
import restrictions China has also
imposed stringent export controls on 25
rare Metals which are crucial for Global
electronics and Military production
China dominates the refinement of these
critical materials accounting for nearly
90% of the world's total refined output
tungsten is part of the new restricted
list because it is difficult to secure
and is critical for Aerospace
manufacturing the export regulations
implemented by Beijing specifically
Target Metal Products but do not affect
China's import of crucial Metals used to
create high-end semiconductors Aerospace
technology and pharmaceuticals standards
from previous situations indicate that
export levels will drop dramatically as
companies face extensive delays in
obtaining import permits through an
examination process which usually takes
multiple weeks meanwhile to secure its
supply of rare earth metals the US has
turned to Ukraine offering a $300
billion support package in exchange for
guarantees on metal shipments however
those negotiations have hit a major
roadblock following a contentious and
fractured meeting between Trump and
Ukrainian President Vladimir zalinski
with economic weapons deployed on both
sides the global trade War shows no
signs of easing how much further will
the US and China push before the
consequences become too great to bear
Rubio says usaid Purge is complete with
83% of the agency's programs gone a
secretary of state Marco Rubio says the
cuts at usaid are done leaving the aid
agency with only about 16% of its
original program that's an elimination
of more than 5,000 contracts in a
sweeping and unprecedented overhaul
Secretary of State Marco Rubio announced
Monday that the Trump Administration has
completed its six-week Purge of programs
under the six decade old US agency for
International Development usaid slashing
a staggering 83% of its operations
declaring the end of an era in American
foreign aid Rubio confirmed that the
surviving 18% of Aid and development
programs will be transferred to the
state department the announcement made
via a post on X was one of Rubio's rare
public statements on what has become a
historic pivot away from US foreign
assistance a transformation carried out
by President Donald Trump's political
appointees at the state department
alongside Elon musk's Department of
government efficiency Doge teams
expressing gratitude Rubio acknowledged
Doge and our hardworking staff who
worked long hours to achieve this
overdue and historic reform in foreign
aid January 6th these are the
hostages approximately 1,500 for a
pardon yes full pardon the move follows
Trump's executive order on January 20th
which Froze all foreign assistance
funding and launched an exhaustive
review of the tens of billions of
dollars spent on us Aid and development
abroad charging that much of the
spending was wasteful and fueled a
liberal agenda Trump initiated a
dramatic restructuring of America's
Global Outreach with the review
officially concluded Rubio's post
confirmed the Staggering results an
estimated 5,200 ut of usaid 6,200
programs have been eliminated these
programs spent tens of billions of
dollars in ways that did not serve and
in some cases even harmed the core
National interest of the United States
Rubio declared in consultation with
Congress we intend for the remaining 18%
of programs we are keeping to be
administered more effectively under the
state department he continued however
Democratic lawmakers and critics are
already sounding the alarm branding the
move is unlawful they argue that
shutting down congressionally funded
programs on this scale requires explicit
approval from Congress this battle may
just be beginning the US scrambles to
respond and China is striking back
