In latest media crackdown, White House limits newswire access to Trump
April 15 (Reuters) – Wire services including Reuters and Bloomberg News will no longer hold a permanent slot in the small pool of reporters who cover President Donald Trump, the White House said on Tuesday, as it moves to exert greater control over who gets to ask him questions and report on his statements in real time.
The decision comes after the Trump administration last week lost a court challenge brought by another wire service, the Associated Press, over its earlier exclusion from the press pool.

Trump Presses China to Make Tariff Offer to Calm Trade War – Tue, April 15, 2025 at 2:23 p.m. EDT

President Donald Trump called on China to reach out to him in order to kick off negotiations aimed at resolving the escalating trade fight between the world’s two largest economies.

“The ball is in China’s court. China needs to make a deal with us. We don’t have to make a deal with them,” White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt said Tuesday, reading what she said was a statement Trump dictated.

“There’s no difference between China and any other country except they are much larger, and China wants what we have, what every country wants, what we have — the American consumer — or to put another way, they need our money,” the statement continued.

The comments are a fresh sign the US and China continue to dig in their heels, indicating there is no end in sight to fight that has seen both sides raise trade barriers to staggering levels …/..

Politics Trump ‘looking into’ legality of deporting U.S. citizens to foreign prisons, White House says

President Donald Trump is exploring whether the law allows him to deport United States citizens to prisons in Central American countries, the White House said.

Trump has said he would like to send “homegrown criminals” to a notorious prison in El Salvador, where the U.S. has already deported some non-citizens.

Trump administration officials claim they cannot compel El Salvador to return Kilmar Abrego Garcia, who was deported from the U.S. to his native country due to an admitted administrative error.

Is this a head scratcher?

Why is EURUSD firming on what is negative tariff news?

DAX is still up on the day.

One thought is the risk of inflation might deter the ECB from cutting rates on Thursday.

Or is it just thinning liquidity and false starts in pre-Easter week?
