Trump on potential EU food imports ban: ‘Let them do it’Thank You God I Love our President

BY SARAH FORTINSKY 02/17/25 08:23

President Trump on Sunday brushed off reporting that the European Union might respond to his “reciprocal” tariff policy by moving to block imports of certain American food products.

“That’s all right. I don’t mind. Let them do it. Let them do it,” Trump told reporters.

“They’re just hurting themselves if they do that,” he continued. “I can’t imagine it, but it doesn’t matter.”

The European Commission will agree next week to explore greater import limits on certain U.S. food items made to different standards, the Financial Times reported Sunday, citing three unidentified officials.

Initial targets of the import ban could reportedly include soybean crops grown in the U.S., which allow for certain pesticides that EU farmers are not allowed to use.

“We have very clear signals from the parliament, very clear signals also from the member states and from our farmers: whatever is banned in the EU, it should be banned in the EU, even if it is an imported product,” European Commissioner for Health and Food Safety Olivér Várhelyi told the Financial Times in an interview last month.

Trump last week signed a presidential memorandum proposing reciprocal tariffs that he maintains would crack down on unfair and discriminatory tariffs from both adversaries and allies.

The tariffs were not immediately imposed, but the signing of the memo allows his administration to begin a review process to get them started. The reciprocal tariffs would be customized for each foreign trading partner, based on five different areas: tariffs the nation imposes on U.S. products, unfair taxes imposed, cost to U.S. businesses and consumers from another country’s policies, exchange rates, and any other practices the trade representative’s office determines is unfair.

White House officials said Trump wants to move rapidly on imposing the tariffs, suggesting it would be “weeks” and no longer than “a few months” until they are in place.

Trump defended the reciprocal tariff policy in his remarks to reporters Sunday.

“We’re having reciprocal tariffs. Whatever they charge, we charge. It’s very simple. If a certain country — like India, which is very high tariff — if they charge us X dollars, we charge them X dollars,” Trump said.

“It’s a fair thing to do,” he added. “Even the media said it was fair, and it’s going to be very good for the United States.”

Judge refuses to block DOGE’s access to student borrower data

(DOGE has access to the Vault of Death and Destruction of Generations.

BY ZACH SCHONFELD 02/17/25 11:12pm

A federal judge Monday evening declined to block Elon Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE)from gaining access to Education Department data on student borrowers.

U.S. District Judge Randolph Moss ruled that the University of California Student Association (USCA), which brought the lawsuit, had not shown sufficient irreparable harm to receive such immediate relief.

“Because the Court concludes that UCSA has failed to clear that essential hurdle, the Court’s analysis also ends there,”wrote Moss, who was appointed by former President Obama.

“The Court leaves for another day consideration of whether USCA’s has standing to sue and has stated a claim upon which relief may be granted. Those questions are less clear cut and are better answered on a more complete record,” Moss continued.

Musk’s DOGE has moved rapidly since President Trump’s inauguration to install employees at federal agencies with an aim of cutting trillions of dollars in government spending, quickly drawing legal challenges.

The student government raised alarm that Musk’s team would be able to access students’ personal data, including tax information, submitted to the Education Department as part of federal financial aid applications. The lawsuit claims the access violated federal privacy laws.

“ED and DOGE staffers are obligated to use UCSA members’ information for lawful purposes within the mission of the Department of Education and to keep it confidential, in accordance with the Privacy Act, tax laws, and other federal law,” Moss noted in his ruling.

The Hill has reached out to Public Citizen, a left-leaning consumer advocacy group that represents the plaintiffs, for comment.

Moss’s decisioncomes days after another judge declined to immediately block DOGE from accessing systems at the Labor Department, Department of Health and Human Services and the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau.

But under yet another judge’s ruling, DOGE personnel are blocked from accessing critical Treasury Department payment systems that are used to dole out trillions of dollars per year.

A judge is also set to rule soon on whether to block DOGE from accessing systems at seven federal agencies.

In that case, Joshua Fisher, the director of the White House administration office, submitted a sworn declaration earlier Monday that Musk is a senior adviser to the president.

“He is not an employee of the U.S. DOGE Service or U.S. DOGE Service Temporary Organization. Mr. Musk is not the U.S. DOGE Service Administrator,” Fisher wrote.
