What bad news did Donald Trump receive on Tuesday morning?
Donald Trump is off to a terrible morning on Tuesday, and we've also learned that one of Donald Trump's top advisors was actually born in the Soviet Union and has been keeping that a secret. More on that in just a moment. Donald Trump ranting and raving like a lunatic on his social media platform. He's talking about those letters that he sent to countries that he couldn't do deals with in his failed trade war. Here's what he writes. As per letter sent to various countries yesterday, in addition to letters that will be sent today, tomorrow, and for the next short period of time, then he puts this all in caps. Tariffs will start being paid on August 1st, 2025. There has been no change to this date, and there will be no change.
In other words, all money will be due and payable starting August 1, 2025. No extensions will be granted. Thank you for your attention to this matter. Again, a tariff is a tax on the American company. The foreign countries are not paying the tariff. The importer is paying the tariff. This is a tax on American companies. So then Donald Trump held a disastrous cabinet briefing. In about 90 minutes, I'll do a longer video because this thing was off the rails. But Donald Trump said that everybody did a great job in Texas. He said, congratulations on a job well done. And then he takes credit for saving so many lives that he says, this is the way it's supposed to happen. This was great. We crushed it. We did amazing.
This is what he says at the cabinet meeting this morning.
How did Trump describe the new tariff letters in his social‑media rant?
Play this clip.

I think a lot of lives have been saved. That could have been as bad as it was and you could have lost double or triple. This thing was just uh really horrible. Well, uh congratulations on a great job and appreciate all you going down. I'll be going down on Friday with
Now I'd like to show you what former National Oceanic Atmospheric Administration head Richard Spinrad had to say. And we've shown you videos of him before about two months ago where he was warning about what would happen with the cuts to NOAA, the National Oceanic Atmospheric Administration, and the NWS, the National Weather Service, which is under NOAA. This is from this small Morning, where Richard Spinrad says that he is convinced, he uses that language, that the staff cuts were a contributing factor to the inability of the emergency managers to respond. Here, play this clip.
I am convinced that the staff cuts that we saw were a contributing factor to the inability of the emergency managers to respond. The staffing was just fine and the White House has concurred with this to get the forecast out to get the watches and warnings issued. But when you send a message There's no guarantee it's being received. So someone needs to follow up. And that's the warning coordination meteorologist, a position that was vacant.
Now, as he mentions in that clip, the The vacancies were there in Texas. There were key vacancies within the National Weather Service. And specifically, the position of the meteorologist coordinator and the emergency coordinator was missing at the National Weather Service. So there's more than just pushing a button and then an alert goes out because you get alerts all the time. Time, right? That doesn't necessarily mean that when you see an alert, you immediately respond to it. It would be great if everybody did. But the whole reason why you have the federal government create these positions is precisely for this reason: that people could be sleeping or not paying attention, or they could be inundated with so many alerts that one alert on their cell phone doesn't trigger the emergency as it should.
So the feds were supposed to be in there immediately, and the feds were supposed to be leading or at least running a joint task force or co-leading with the state. Now, I'll show you again more of this in another video I'm going to do.
