>> to be 15. i don't like it when we're this dumb. >> i'm going to say 23. >> i'm going. >> to say. >> 329 countries. >> the administration has not given any type of clarity. it's like, well, what is the dirty 15? is it 15% or is it 15? it's like it was a baker's dozen plus two more. and then. i would like to file a motion that we be known as the dirty five. >> oh. >> okay. >> i mean. >> can't we be the dirty eight? i mean. >> oh, yeah, that's better. they're dirty eight because there's five of us. >> you can catch the all day episode tomorrow at 9 p.m. on cnn. thank you very much for watching news night. we'll see you tomorrow morning at 10 a.m. with our conversation show table for five. and thank you for watching news night. you can catch me anytime on social media, instagram and tiktok.

meanwhile, cnn's coverage continues next. >> welcome to all you watching us here in the united states, canada and around the world. i'm kim brunhuber. this is cnn newsroom. the global economic landscape is dramatically changing as donald trump's sweeping tariffs take effect. we'll look at how countries around the world are responding. tiktok and its millions of american users face another 75 days in limbo. we'll have details on the latest delay in the app's u.s. ban and what happens next. and parts of the central u.s. are seeing extreme rainfall after already going through a wave of deadly storms. we'll have the latest conditions. >> live from atlanta. this is cnn newsroom with kim brunhuber. >> it is just past 4 a.m. on the east coast in the u.s. as president donald trump's new tariffs are underway, there's now a 10% tax on all goods

imported into the united states, set to be followed next week by far larger levies on dozens of other countries. but already, trump's decision is upending nearly a quarter of a century of u.s. trade policy, saying the global economy into turmoil. the three major u.s. averages were battered by a steep sell off on friday. the s&p 500 lost more than 5 trillion in market value over the past two days. global stock markets dropped sharply again as investors digested president trump's new tariffs and the knock on effects. and you can see it's they're all in the red. meanwhile, the president spent his friday at his golf club in florida, where the white house says he was taking calls from foreign leaders. the u.s. treasury secretary is downplaying the market's reaction to the sweeping new tariffs. >> for everyone who thinks that this these market declines are all based on the president's economic policies, i can tell you that this market decline started with the chinese. i

announcement of deepseek. if i were to analyze in my old hat, and there's only time i'm going to talk about it. my old hat. what's happening with the market? i'd say it's more a mag seven problem and not a maga problem. >> on friday, president trump also took the unusual step of trying to pressure the federal reserve to lower interest rates. the fed's chairman warned that inflation is likely to increase. >> while uncertainty. >> remains elevated. it is now becoming clear that tariff increases will be significantly. larger than expected, and the same is likely to be true of the economic effects, which will include higher inflation and slower growth. the size. >> and duration of these. >> effects remains uncertain. >> china has retaliated against the new tariffs, announcing on friday its own counter tariffs of 34% on all u.s. goods starting april 10th. that's the day after new u.s. tariffs specific to china raised the effective tax rate for chinese goods to more than 50%, alongside many higher tariffs

from many other countries. cnn's richard quest has more on the financial fallout. >> another day and another serious market fall. the second in a row. the dow was off more than 2200 points. it's now down 12% plus since its recent high. that officially makes it into a correction. the same for the s&p 500, which is down 15% or so. but it's the nasdaq that's really being clobbered. the nasdaq is now down more than 22% since its recent high. and that makes it officially a bear market. these numbers and reactions all make perfect common sense when you look at the size and scale of what the u.s. has just launched on the rest of the world, the reworking, if you will, of global trade. true, there may be some countries like cambodia and vietnam that manage to do

bilateral negotiations that get their tariff down. but the big players, china, for instance, with its reciprocal tariff of 34%, the eu deciding what it's going to do, all of these major trading partners, that's where the improvement has to be. and so far, there's no indication that they are buckling. and even if they did, even if there was some sort of rapprochement, the truth is the trust has gone. the united states has now beaten up on allies and foes alike. it's made its intentions clear, and the market has given its reaction. richard quest, cnn, new york. >> i want to go live now to rome and cnn's bari laterza, doll. so, barbie, take us through how european markets have fared with all of this chaos. >> well, you know, very much like in the united states. >> they suffered the european across europe suffered the largest losses since the covid

pandemic. individual sectors that are especially hit are the financial services and the luxury goods sector. and of course, that is because so many of these luxury goods companies rely on asian supply chain companies. so there's just this whole sort of inter entwined and tangled mess. but you've got, you know, panic across the european union in terms of the stock market reaction, kim. >> and barbara. so all the eyes obviously are on the various countries and regions as they debate a response to this. some have already hit the u.s. with tariffs of their own. so what's the response so far from european leaders? >> well. >> european leadership says that there will be retaliation and a swift reaction. but individual countries of course, have a kind of a different relationship with the united states and different reactions to this. in france, macron said that it was brutal and unfounded. we're here in italy. giorgia meloni, who has a warm relationship with donald

trump, had a very different reaction. let's listen to what she had to say. >> it is a problem that must be solved, but it's not a catastrophe, as i am hearing these days, which paradoxically worries me more than the fact itself, because we must remember that we are talking about an important market, the u.s. market, which is worth about 10% of our total exports. we will not stop exporting to the united states. so it is a problem we must solve. but beware of the alarmism i am seeing in these hours. >> and you know that that alarmism is is really across the european union. but, you know, so many times i think people think of europe as sort of, you know, food and fashion. but the pharmaceutical industry, the machinery industry, the auto industry, all of these are affected. so, you know, very much it's a kind of a negotiation among the european leaders in terms of what they want to do as a as a bloc, because europe obviously is one single market. they have to have a reaction that is unified.

individual countries won't be able to act independently. so it's very much a, you know, sit and wait, negotiate. there's lots of talks going on behind the scenes. you can bet that kim. >> yeah, absolutely. all right. we'll have to see how it all shakes out. are we nadeau in rome? thank you so much. well, it's a small relief for millions of american tiktok users thanks to tariffs. president trump is pushing back today's deadline for tiktok to find a new owner. this comes after trump's tariffs on china killed a potential deal to sell the app to american investors. cnn's clare duffy explains what might be next for tiktok. >> yeah, this will at least be good news. for tiktok's 170. >> million. >> american users. they will. >> be glad to hear that trump has granted another 75 day extension in the enforcement of this ban, because he says, more time is needed to make a deal to sell tiktok off from its china based parent company. but that's interesting, right? because both president trump and vice president vance had said in the lead up to the saturday deadline that they did expect

there would be a deal before the deadline. trump now saying that more time is needed to make a deal. and what cnn is hearing from a source familiar with the deal is that there was actually a deal in place this week that u.s. investors, bytedance and trump administration staff had all agreed on this deal that would have handed off majority control of tiktok's u.s. assets to american ownership, leaving bytedance with just a 20% stake in the company. but that that deal went off the rails when trump announced his 34% tariff on china this week. and bytedance representatives came to the white house and said china is not going to approve of this deal. while these tariffs are in place. now, what's interesting is that bytedance is publicly acknowledging that it is engaged with the white house in these talks. a spokesperson saying that an agreement has not been executed because there are still key matters to resolve. so i think that is the big question now is can trump get this deal back on track? can he convince china to agree to a sale of tiktok? while this trade war is

escalating? my other big question is when we might start hearing from the folks in congress who passed this law on a bipartisan basis on national security concerns. those national security concerns were upheld by the supreme court unanimously earlier this year. what did they think about the fact that this ban is now being delayed a second time? i think those are the big questions about tiktok's future. but for now, good news for american tiktok users. clare duffy, cnn new york. >> one expert tells cnn that there are still many questions surrounding a potential buyout deal, and only 75 days to sort them out. listen to this. >> we have some insight into. >> what the. >> white house proposal was going to be. i mean, obviously so many questions about whether that structure will still stay in place. what will china say? how will the tariffs play into this? of course, lots of questions still about this. but you know, and we didn't know which employees would roll up into the new tiktok america, but we did know that it would be owned roughly half by new u.s.

investors. i mean, so many names have been floated over the past few days, from amazon to walmart to all these other companies. and then 30% would be existing bytedance investors, but bytedance would still hold a stake under the under the threshold of the law. so bytedance would still be involved, and the plan was for them to license tiktok's algorithm. that has been at the heart of this issue. what happens with that? but again, so many questions of whether this plan will go forward and whether that will be okay with china hawks in congress as well. i think we're going to be in limbo for a while. i think we're i think trump is going to try to just punt this for as long as possible, but i think it's really going to be really hard to find a solution that satisfies everyone and satisfies the law. >> about 4 million people are under flash flood warnings from texas to kentucky, and severe thunderstorms and heavy rain could trigger once in a generation flooding into the weekend. storms already have killed at least eight people across tennessee, missouri, indiana and kentucky. the victims include a nine-year-old

boy who was swept away by flood waters while he was walking to a school bus on friday. drone video shows buildings, cars and roads partially submerged by flood waters after rain pounded one town in kentucky. president trump has approved an emergency declaration for the state. communities are also grappling with widespread devastation after the storms spawned dozens of tornadoes this week. kentucky's national guard and support teams from other states are helping residents who've been impacted. one business owner has been using sandbags to keep floodwaters out of his store. listen to this. >> we definitely are very concerned that it could get a lot higher. and if that's the case, i could have a greater loss than i have right now. we're just trying to do the best we can with maintaining this, but if we get more coming on, it's definitely going to be a challenge to deal with it. >> authorities expect the flooding to continue and could get worse into sunday. the u.s.

government admits it deported this man by mistake as president trump's immigration push stokes fear in communities across the u.s. plus, there's concern vladimir putin is stalling on ukraine war, peace talks, and washington may be losing its patience. we'll have more later in the program. stay with us. >> feeling anxious? >> i don't know what's. >> going on. don't worry. >> put your feet up. don't panic. >> we can help you cope. >> it's called disassociation. >> it's all on fire. >> did you not find that comforting? >> have i got news for you? tonight at 9:00 on cnn? >> time to press. >> rewind with neutrogena rapid wrinkle repair. it has derm proven retinol expertly formulated to target skin cell turnover and fight not one, but five signs of aging with visible results in just one week. >> neutrogena like a relentless weed. >> moderate to severe ulcerative colitis symptoms can keep coming

house republican lawmakers and senior aides told cnn they remain skeptical that the senate's plan can survive their chamber. hard line conservatives in the house are seeking at least $1.5 trillion in cuts, compared to the senate's $4 billion. speaker mike johnson has said he plans to bring the senate proposal to the house floor next week. civil rights organizations in el salvador are asking for the release of venezuelans held in one of their prisons. the men were transferred under heavy security after being deported from the u.s. in march. the organizations have filed a constitutional appeal for the release of the 238 venezuelans now in the notorious terror confinement center. the salvadoran supreme court of justice has accused the venezuelans of being members of a criminal gang. but a number of families say the charge is false and that their family members are being held illegally. they're also asking judges to suspend a deportation agreement with the u.s. cnn has reached out to their lawyers and the salvadoran government for comment. a federal judge on

friday ruled that the u.s. must bring back a man mistakenly deported to el salvador by the end of the day on monday. the trump administration admitted for the first time it made a deportation mistake with the father of three. but it says it can't do anything about it. cnn's polo sandoval has more on the fear being spread by the trump administration's deportation policies. >> no. >> no, no, no. no no. oh, mommy. >> this is salvadoran. el-sisi noemi barrios, behind the wheel, detained by federal agents in maryland earlier this week. her daughter shot the video. >> right here. don't grab her like that. >> dhs said in a statement this individual has been identified as an associate of the vicious ms-13 gang. americans can rest assured that she's off our streets and locked up. bello's family was shocked by the allegations, saying their mother has no ties to ms-13 or any gang, adding that she held a valid work authorization while

her immigration proceedings were pending. her daughter saying simply it's not true. >> oh my god. >> images are sending shock waves through maryland salvadoran community, which is still reeling from the deportation of kilmar armando abrego garcia, a husband and father who was sent to a notorious mega prison in el salvador. the trump administration admitted it was an administrative error. the government claims that he was associated with the violent salvadoran gang mara salvatrucha, or ms-13. dhs said in a statement he should be locked up. >> i.c.e. out of. >> maryland now. >> abrego garcia disputes the administration's claim and read a statement before a judge ordered her husband be returned to the u.s. no later than monday. >> if i had all the money in the world. i'll spend it all just to buy one thing a phone call. to hear kimora's voice. again.

>> my biggest question is why? why was he a target? were you guys trying to make an example? where are you targeting the salvadoran community? >> local activist jorge benitez perez fears that speaking out comes with a risk. >> even doing doing this interview, i thought about it before i came here because i am someone that is not a full citizen. i am someone on a, you know, permanent status. but what is permanent now? >> beyond his personal concerns, benitez is deeply worried that members of his salvadoran community will be mislabeled as gang members, detained or even deported by mistake again. >> now things can just turn like that, where a narrative of gang members mara salvatrucha is being sent. and i'm doing this because i want people to know that's not the reality. that's not who we are. and that's definitely not who my people are. >> like benitez, elementary school teacher yakie palma has noticed heightened fears in the eyes of her students. >> children are scared as well, and it's really impacting their performance in school.

>> as a first generation salvadoran american, palma says she's formed bonds with migrant parents of her students, many from el salvador. she recalls a recent conversation with a seven year old student. >> she told me that she was very terrified that she would get deported. her parents have told me that she is a u.s. citizen. she was born here. but still, it's that widespread fear that if you're hispanic or if you're salvadoran, you're going to get deported, right? because of that racial profiling happening and that affiliation with ms-13. >> all throughout. >> like back in his old neighborhood. benitez remains hopeful but also fiercely protective of his community. >> this is not the first time our communities have been under attack. we survived four years in the past and we can do it again. >> polo sandoval. cnn. prince george's county, maryland. >> a u.s. federal judge has denied the government's jurisdiction claim in the case of a detained tufts university phd student. rümeysa öztürk, a student from turkey, was taken by masked ice agents and kept overnight in vermont before

being transferred to louisiana in a loss for the trump department of justice. the judge denied the government's motion to transfer the case to the southern state, and ruled that the order to stop her deportation stands. a similar jurisdictional fight has been taking place over a columbia university student, mahmoud khalil more international students at american universities have had their visas revoked or their legal status terminated. a spokesperson at the university of cincinnati said students had their f-1 visas revoked. they allow international students to pursue full time studies here in the u.s. the school's president called it deeply alarming. he said no specific reasons were given for the actions at the university of texas at austin, staffers found out about legal status terminations through a federal database. at least 40 international students and faculty members in the u.s. have been detained by federal agents or had visas revoked. some experts fear it's part of a crackdown on dissent. all right. when we come back, president trump's new tariffs are fueling fears of a global recession,

watching us here in the united states, canada and around the world. i'm kim brunhuber. this is cnn newsroom. the head of the federal reserve is warning that president trump's wave of new tariffs is highly likely to drive up inflation and unemployment. chairman jerome powell said the central bank's best move amid the turmoil is to hold interest rates for longer. but president trump on friday took the unusual step of trying to pressure the fed to lower rates soon. there is a bright spot for the u.s. economy. 228,000 jobs were added in march, far higher than expected. the unemployment rate did go up slightly to 4.2%. now, this data doesn't reflect the aftermath of president trump's tariffs. meanwhile, canada is slamming the trump administration's plan to overhaul the economy as a response on friday. canada enacted reciprocal tariffs of 25% on all u.s. vehicles that don't fall under the north american free trade agreement. the canadian ambassador to the u.s. tells cnn that the trade war is having a terrible impact on both sides of the border.

listen to this. >> we used to have 99% tariff free trade. >> a couple of months. >> ago now. >> a big. >> portion of the trade between our two countries are under wraps. >> and we're seeing it. >> stellantis shuttered. a plant., suspended operations. >> 900 americans lost jobs because of that and many more in canada. so these are real world consequences to these actions. and again, what we are looking forward to and hoping we will see soon is a comprehensive discussion around the canada-u.s. trading relationship, which is changing. it's clearly changing. >> u.s. secretary of state marco rubio acknowledged the brutal two days on wall street, but claimed markets will adjust. here he is. >> i don't think it's fair to say economies are crashing. markets are crashing because markets are based on the stock value of companies who today are embedded in modes of production that are bad for the united states. >> j.p. morgan now believes a global recession is more likely than not. they're upgrading the chances of a recession this year from 40% to 60%. the managing

director and head of economic research at j.p. morgan explains what's behind the new assessment. >> let me say, first off, that i think the economy is actually doing reasonably well as we move through the first quarter. i think something you see in today's employment report. however, first and foremost, what we saw with liberation day was an extremely large tariff increase. and we should understand that a tariff increase is a tax on u.s. households and businesses. the roughly 22% cumulative tariff increase we see would be the largest u.s. tax hike we've had since. since 1968. it's a big hit to the economy in a direct sense. the second thing is the design of the tariff was not meant to tactically go against unfair trade practices abroad. it was basically putting tariffs on countries based on their bilateral deficit with the u.s. and in doing so, what you're doing is effectively creating a situation where you're targeting those things that americans buy, regardless of the cause of that,

you're creating an opportunity for large disruptions. and i think significant retaliation as well. and perhaps as important as anything, we think what's going on here, not just with trade policy, but with other policies as well, is we're seeing an administration that is shifting the sentiment of the business sector away from its view, which i think was in place at the beginning of the year that this administration cared about near-term growth, cared about the business sector, and that momentum shift in terms of sentiment is what's reflected in the markets this week. >> u.s. republican senator ted cruz, a vocal trump supporter, is questioning the administration's approach. he says the trump tariffs could be so bad for the american economy that democrats could take control of the house and senate in 2026. now, cruz spoke on his podcast friday, saying he wants to see the tariff succeed but wants them to result in lower tariffs overall. but he says he thinks there are some in the white house who want the tariffs to be permanent. cruz says that would be very bad for the

economy. here he is. >> and it's terrible for america. it will hurt jobs and hurt america. and there is a very real risk of that. if we go into a recession, particularly a bad recession. 2026, in all likelihood politically, would be a bloodbath. you would face a democrat house, and you might even face a democrat senate. >> americans may soon be paying even more for a cup of coffee. trump's tariffs are hitting the world's largest coffee producers, and that includes colombia, which shipped at least $1.4 billion worth of coffee to the u.s. last year, according to the census bureau. cnn's stephanie reports from bogota. >> colombian coffee farmers are concerned after the white house imposed a 10% tariff on colombian imports. most of that include coffee. now, here i am at the warehouse where the colombian coffee federation stores its beans before they are ready to be exported to the

united states. about 40% of these sacks that are just behind my back are destined for the united states. and of course, an import tariff of 10% can create havoc for the many people that depend on coffee here in colombia. there are about 500,000 small coffee farmers that are part of the colombian coffee federation. about 3 million people depend on coffee, so an increase of prices because of these tariffs could spell really bad for their bottom line. and that's why many here in colombia are sharing these concerns. now one thing to notice is that the united states cannot just replace imports of coffee. it's not like america can start growing coffee in arizona or california. they will still have to purchase coffee from the traditional exporting countries, such as colombia, which got a 10% tariff, such as brazil, which got a 10% tariff, or vietnam, we got a 46% tariff.

who will pay that extra bill, however, remains to be seen, and that's why there is so much concern here in the global south that those tariffs might impact the bottom line. just down here for cnn, this is stephanie bogota. >> the trump tariffs are already impacting the video game industry. nintendo says it's postponing u.s. preorders for the new switch two in order to assess the potential impact of tariffs. the advance orders in the u.s. were originally set to begin this coming wednesday, but the new tariffs heavily target asia, where many tech supply chains are based, including nintendo's. the switch two is nintendo's biggest console launch nearly a decade, and it's still on track to debut in june. so to a small country surrounded by south africa was hit with the highest tariff rate. despite being one of the poorest countries in the world. cnn's larry mendoza reports. >> sewing machines whirl. >> in a garment factory in lesotho. but that's not the

the markets are crashing, but that they are reacting to what he called a dramatic change. he said that there has to be a reset in the global order of trade, and that businesses and markets would readjust once they got used to what he called the new rules. there was also a lot of discussion, of course, about ukraine here at nato. the future of ukraine, a lot of praise for the united states, for the efforts that it is undertaking to try to get to a ceasefire and a peace deal between russia and ukraine. and rubio actually revealed that before coming here to brussels, he had sat down with kirill dmitriev in washington. that's the kremlin aide, the putin ally who went to washington earlier this week. and the message that rubio said he gave to dmitriev was that they need to see concrete steps that the u.s. wants to be convinced that russia does indeed want peace. here's a little bit more of what he had to say when i asked him about that meeting. what we're not interested. >> in. >> and i'm not accusing.

not be forced into peace through mere conversations or waiting. i am grateful to everyone in the world who helps make diplomacy and efforts for a just peace effective. we count on america, europe and other partners on their ability to pressure the real cause of this war. russia's desire to destroy and kill. >> this comes as president zelenskyy says kyiv will be ready to present a new draft of a minerals deal with the united states next week. he says ukraine will choose a law firm to represent it in negotiations, and that a technical team will be prepared to travel to the u.s. for talks. zelenskyy says he won't take part in this trip. sources tell cnn that the u.s. has spent a staggering amount of money on strikes against the houthis in yemen over the past few weeks. and as natasha bertrand reports, the results haven't been encouraging. >> the total cost of the u.s. military's new offensive against the houthi. terrorist group in yemen. >> is.

>> nearing $1 billion in just under three weeks. >> a really monumental. >> cost of this massive military operation that comes even as officials tell us, that the. military impact of this operation against the houthis has actually. >> been fairly limited. >> it is unclear at this point just how much of the houthis weapons stockpiles have been degraded in these daily strikes by u.s. central command. the u.s. military has had difficulty coming up with a consistent battlefield damage assessment about just how much of the houthis weaponry and stockpile have actually been destroyed, because. >> so much. >> of it remains underground. but officials did tell us that even amidst the daily, relentless really campaign that the u.s. has been waging against the houthis very expensive campaign, the houthis have still been able to largely continue with the strategy that they have been doing over the last year. plus, when it comes to withstanding attacks from the u.s. military, they are

fortifying their bunkers, they are staying underground. they are keeping their heads down. and that has made it more difficult for them to communicate and more difficult for them to launch attacks precisely. according to a u.s. defense official. but still, they are continuing to launch missiles and drones into the red sea. and as recently as last week, they actually shot down yet another mq nine reaper drone that is operated by the u.s. for intelligence, reconnaissance and surveillance over yemen. and so they are continuing to launch these missiles. and at the same time, u.s. central command has moved a ton of assets into the region. there are soon going to be two u.s. aircraft carriers in the red sea. there are currently more air defense systems being moved into the region. additional fighter squadrons are also being moved into the region, and b-2 bombers that have been designated and deployed to hit the houthis in yemen. a massive, massive cost that is only going to increase as the weeks go by and there is
