The US president has repeated his threat to impose tariffs on imports from Canada and Mexico, saying they will be introduced on Saturday.
Speaking to reporters in the Oval Office, he said the tariffs would begin at 25% and “may or may not rise with time”.
He also repeated threats to impose new tariffs on goods from China, citing its role in the fentanyl trade, and on the Brics countries.
Stay with us for more on that and all the day’s developments.
Richard Grenell, Donald Trump’s envoy for special missions, is expected to meet with Venezuela’s president, Nicolas Maduro, on Friday, CNN reports.
Grenell is expected to discuss deportation flights among other things during his trip to Venezuela, the outlet reports.
Grenell held secret talks in 2020 with one of Maduro’s closest allies, Jorge Rodríguez, who swore Maduro in for his third term in office earlier this month.
Trump’s appointment of Grenell has left some wondering if an agreement may be reached with Maduro involving the deportation of Venezuelan migrants from the US and access to Venezuela’s massive oil reserves for US companies in exchange for Washington accepting Maduro’s power grab.
Colombian president urges undocumented Colombians in the US to return ‘as soon as possible’
Colombia’s president Gustavo Petro has urged undocumented Colombians in the US to quit their jobs “immediately” and return to Colombia as soon as possible.
“Wealth is only produced by the working people,” Petro said on X. “Let’s build social wealth in Colombia.”
He added that the department of social prosperity would offer credits to returnees who enroll in its programs.
Senior treasury official to leave after clash with Musk allies – report
David Lebryk, the top-ranking career official in the treasury department, is departing after a clash with allies of Elon Musk over access to sensitive payment systems, the Washington Post reports.
The report, citing sources, said Lebryk and Musk’s surrogates clashed over access to a sensitive system used to pay out more than $6tn a year in social security and Medicare benefits as well as federal salaries, government contract payments and tax refunds.
It was unclear why the team tied to Musk sought access to the payment system.
Federal government workers have been left “shell-shocked” by the upheaval wrought by Donald Trump’s return to the presidency.
Since being restored to the White House on 20 January, Trump has gone on a revenge spree against high-profile figures who previously served him but earned his enmity by slighting or criticising him in public.
He has cancelled Secret Service protection for three senior national security officials in his first presidency, fired high-profile figures from government roles on his social media site, and stripped 51 former intelligence officials of their security clearances for doubting reports about Hunter Biden’s laptop as possible Russian disinformation.
Some senior officials saw the writing on the wall and resigned before his return, but others adopted a hope-for-the-best attitude – only to be shocked by what awaited them, according to insiders.
“The most commons refrain I’m hearing from people who have left but are still talking to people on the inside is: ‘I knew it was going to be bad but I didn’t think it was going to be this bad,’” said Mark Bergman, a veteran Democratic lawyer.
“There’s certainly shell shock. My view is that Trump is animated by his revenge and retribution agenda.”
