CBS: U.S. Treasury Secretary and Trump Once Had Heated Debate on Tariff Policy

2025.04.16 12:40:33

On April 16th, CBS News, citing multiple sources, stated that although the White House has been attempting to claim that Trump administration officials have been unified on U.S. tariff policy, internal differences over the policy had emerged weeks prior to Trump signing the so-called "reciprocal tariff" executive order on April 2nd. A senior Trump adviser was reported to have warned in private conversations that some tariff proposals could have a catastrophic impact on global financial markets and send the U.S. economy into a downward spiral. CBS reported that U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bennett and Trump's trade and manufacturing policy adviser Peter Navarro had a confrontation in late March in the office of White House Chief of Staff Susan Wells. According to multiple sources, Navarro advocated for a uniform 25% tariff on $3 trillion worth of imported goods, while Bennett, a former Wall Street investor, warned that this move would trigger market turmoil and outlined various risk scenarios. The report said that there was constantly heated rhetoric being exchanged.

Arthur Hayes reiterates 'monetary easing' signal, adjusts threshold to MOVE index breaking above 130

Arthur Hayes wrote in a post that to truly panic Scott Bessent and trigger a sharp ramp-up in money printing, besides the 10-year U.S. Treasury yield hitting 5%, the MOVE index also needs to break through 130, mirroring the situation in late 2023 when Janet Yellen began withdrawing liquidity from the RRP (reverse repurchase facility).

Anthropic Claims Kimi Used Claude to Generate Responses: Nearly 300,000 Requests in 10 Days

Beating AI Express, Anthropic released a new AI abuse investigation report, alleging that Moonshot AI (developer of Kimi) had directly forwarded some Kimi users’ requests to Claude, then displayed Claude’s responses to those users. Anthropic said that within a 10-day window, nearly 300,000 user requests were forwarded in this manner, with the vast majority routed to its Opus model. Moonshot used 5,380 unauthorized accounts for this scheme, and the affected users believed they were still using Kimi at the time. Anthropic also alleged that Moonshot saved some user interactions and used "cross-session replay" to extract Claude’s full reasoning process for training its own models. Between May and July, over 23 million such distillation interactions took place. Some actual user requests included internal corporate code and valid credentials, which were also forwarded to Claude. Anthropic noted it was unaware if these users had been notified that their data would be sent to a third party. These claims currently stem primarily from Anthropic’s internal investigation and have not been independently verified. In response to similar distillation allegations raised earlier by three U.S. institutions, China’s Ministry of Commerce stated the claims are "unfounded and legally baseless," adding that distillation is a common practice in the industry.
