Former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s net worth has fallen by approximately $7 million due to Donald Trump’s tariff announcement. Pelosi, who consistently ranked as one of the wealthiest lawmakers on Capitol Hill, had doubled her net worth over the past decade from $123 million in 2014 to an estimated $270 million earlier this year.

Nintendo has paused the preorder of its Switch 2 console in the US due to President Trump’s tariffs, originally set to start on April 9, 2025.

The European Commission, China, and other countries have criticized Donald Trump’s decision to impose universal 10% tariffs on all goods entering the US, calling it a "major blow" to the world economy. The European Union has vowed to take countermeasures if negotiations fail, while Italy, Spain, Ireland, and France have also expressed opposition. China has warned of "resolute countermeasures" against the US, while Taiwan, South Korea, Japan, Thailand, and Israel have all been hit with tariffs ranging from 17% to 54%. The move is seen as a blow to global trade, with leaders warning of uncertainty, dire consequences, and a possible trade war.

Critics mocked the Trump administration's tariff announcement for including Heard Island and McDonald Islands, uninhabited islands in the Indian Ocean, on its list of reciprocal tariffs. The White House included the islands, which are Australian territory, on the chart despite zero trade coming from them, simply because they were part of the countries listed. This led to ridicule on social media, with some joking that "penguins" had been "ripping off American taxpayers" for years.
