Yahoo news report that 25 states are suing Trump administration over new tariffs on 60 countries based on bogus claims of forced labor. After losing at supreme court, he is trying again to impose illegal taxes on American families. But US constitution gives power of the purse to congress. Not presidents.

Oxford economics report warns that end of US-Canada-Mexico agreement could result in losses of 214,000 jobs and over $1 trillion GDP in the US by 2035. Manufacturing industries would be hard hit.

That is their absolute worst-case scenario, which they assign only a 10% likelihood to.
They make various assumptions and run them through their models.
Compare that to their more likely scenario that they assign a 50% likelihood to which assumes only 10% tariffs on targeted things like steel, dairy and aluminum.
Even the $1T in GDP does not mean it is $1T of money disappearing. All that means is that under their modeled scenario is lower than it would have been under continued USMCA.
That's what is known as a counterfactual estimate, not a prediction that the U.S. economy will literally shrink by $1 trillion.
So, to be fair, all of their models in that example should be looked at and not just the very extreme and very unlikely one that drives an anti-Trump bias and presents a false narrative.

CBS reports 60,000 Canadians signed petition to expel US ambassador for interfering in Canadian politics and undermining relations between US and Canada. For example, promoting annexation. Under Trump administration, 100 ambassador jobs are vacant for almost half of all countries in the world.
