Breitbart: Foreign Truck Drivers Causing Fatal Accidents, 'Slashing' Truckers' Income

Breitbart: Trump Says Fed Should Cut Rates as Tariff Hikes Approach
President Trump is calling for the Federal Reserve to cut interest rates as his administration prepares to implement new tariffs on April 2. He argues that lower rates would help mitigate the economic impact of these tariffs, despite the Fed's current stance of maintaining rates steady amid inflation concerns.
Fed Chair Jerome Powell noted that while tariffs may contribute to inflation, their effects are expected to be temporary. The Fed has raised its inflation estimates but lowered growth projections, complicating its decision-making as it balances the risks of inflation against the potential need for rate cuts.
