Pentagon vs. Dem Senator: Tariff Tweets & Troop Threats!

KEY POINTS

  • At 5:38am, President Trump posted on Truth Social, boasting about upcoming tariff impacts on the US economy.
  • He claimed the tariffs would lead to record-setting payments and unparalleled national security and wealth.
  • The Pentagon threatened an Arizona Democratic senator with investigation over her video urging troops to refuse unlawful orders.
  • Trump accused opponents of serving hostile foreign interests and looked forward to a Supreme Court decision on the matter.

On an unholy early morning at 5:38am, President Tariff himself flexed on Truth Social, promising record-shattering economic sunshine through his sweeping tariffs, while bewailing the 'wearing thin' sympathy of countries stockpiling US goods like the world's biggest clearance sale. Meanwhile, the Pentagon, hoodie hung, freshly woke but classically apolitical-ish, apparently threatened an Arizona Democrat for making a video urging troops to refuse unlawful orders — because nothing says national security like a side-eye investigations party. Throw in some subtly aggro wording about ‘hostile foreign interests’ plus Supreme Court suspense, and you've got America's newest political soap opera with tariffs and troop drama as guest stars!
