President Donald Trump&nbsp;voiced his discontent with Ukrainian President Zelenskyy&nbsp;following their meeting at the White House. The interaction has sparked a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/03/44064702/european-leaders-rally-behind-zelenskyy-amid-trump-dispute-free-world-need-a-new-leader">series of reactions</a> from global leaders and highlighted ongoing tensions.
What Happened: Trump expressed dissatisfaction with Zelenskyy after their White House meeting, stating that the conversation revealed insights that could only be understood through direct dialogue.
"Much was learned that could never be understood without conversation under such fire and pressure. It's amazing what comes out through emotion," he said.
He added that the interaction showed that&nbsp;Zelenskyy is not ready for&nbsp;peace if the United States is involved, as he perceives U.S. involvement as a significant advantage in negotiations.
Trump emphasized his preference for peace over any advantage, suggesting that Zelenskyy disrespected the U.S. during their meeting in the Oval Office.
"He disrespected the United States of America in its cherished Oval Office. He can come back when he is ready for peace."
Why It Matters: The meeting between Trump and Zelenskyy has drawn significant attention, especially given the backdrop of ongoing tensions between Ukraine and Russia.

Trump Says Ukraine's Zelensky Is 'Not Ready For Peace' After Oval Office Spat: 'He Disrespected The United States Of America'

U.S. President Donald Trump has reportedly canceled a planned news conference with Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelenskyy after a white house meeting between the two turned tense.
What Happened: The Washington Post reported that <a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2025/02/28/trump-presidency-news/">the</a> U.S. President canceled the news conference after the two met in the presence of Vice President JD Vance in the Oval Office on Friday.
The gathering at the White House, originally set to finalize a U.S.-Ukraine agreement on critical mineral supplies, quickly escalated when<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/global/25/02/44053592/white-house-meeting-turns-tense-as-trump-warns-zelenskyy-youre-gambling-with-world-war-iii"> Vance accused Zelenskyy of being disrespectful</a>. Trump, raising his voice, warned Zelenskyy that he was "gambling with World War III." 
Zelenskyy&#8217;s visit to Washington, D.C., was expected to reinforce Ukraine&#8217;s partnership with the U.S. in its ongoing defense efforts against Russian aggression. However, the dialogue shifted when Trump and Vance questioned Ukraine&#8217;s diplomatic strategies, with Vance suggesting that prior U.S. policies had only fueled further conflict.
Zelenskyy countered by emphasizing Russia&#8217;s repeated breaches of ceasefire agreements, leading to a heated back-and-forth over what path forward would bring about peace.
&#8220;Not Ready For Peace&#8221;: Following the<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/02/44062221/trump-may-stop-all-military-aid-to-ukraine-after-tense-exchange-with-zelenskyy-report"> meeting in the Oval Office</a>, Trump took to his social media platform Truth Social and said that Zelenskyy is &#8220;not ready for Peace if America is involved.&#8221;
&#8220;&#8230;I have determined that President Zelenskyy is not ready for Peace if America is involved, because he feels our involvement gives him a big advantage in negotiations. I don't want advantage, I want PEACE. He disrespected the United States of America in its cherished Oval Office. He can come back when he is ready for Peace,&#8221; Trump wrote.

Trump Cancels News Conference With Zelenskyy After Tense Meet In Oval Office: Report

Ben Horowitz&nbsp;of the venture capital firm Andreessen Horowitz and his spouse Felicia Horowitz are reportedly behind the Cybertruck donations to the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department.
What Happened: Horowitz&#8217;s donation did not go through the  LVMPD Foundation, which raises funds to support the metropolitan police department, <a href="https://www.reviewjournal.com/news/politics-and-government/las-vegas/venture-capital-firm-co-founder-funds-metro-cybertrucks-3311590/">the</a> Las Vegas Review-Journal reported.
Sheriff Kevin McMahill of the LVMPD announced earlier this week that the department will be adding 10 Cybertrucks to its fleet for patrol and SWAT operations. The &#8220;badass&#8221; trucks, he then said, were donated and would not strain the department&#8217;s general budget. 
"By the way, we ordered these before the Trump Tower [explosion]," McMahill said. "But I will tell you, we want these things because the cops inside will be safe no matter what. These stop bullets. They are also a tremendous recruitment tool for us."
The sheriff did not name the donors then, leading to speculations that the trucks might have been donated by Tesla CEO Elon Musk himself. 
Why It Matters: Unplugged Performance, which offers customization options and upgrades on Tesla vehicles, on Friday posted pictures of LVMPD chief Mike Gennari and his team at its facility beside a Cybertruck. The team will modify the trucks for the police team&#8217;s use.

The LVMPD is not the first police department to deploy a Cybertruck. The Irvine police department in October unveiled its customized Cybertruck intended to support its Drug Abuse Resistance Education (DARE) program and community outreach efforts. The truck will not be used as a patrol car, the department then said. However, the vehicle is <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/10/41246431/after-shaq-jay-z-beyonce-and-others-tesla-cybertruck-joins-joins-irvine-police-departments-fleet-wil">fully equipped and could respond</a> to emergencies and provide community assistance when needed, the department added.
The high-end variant of the Cybertruck starts at $99,990 without discounts, implying Horowitz donated about a million dollars.

Here's The Mystery Donor Who Donated 10 Tesla Cybertrucks To Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department: Report

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy addressed a tense encounter with Donald Trump at the White House, which resulted in a public spat. Zelenskyy expressed optimism about mending ties between the two leaders, despite <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/03/44064702/european-leaders-rally-behind-zelenskyy-amid-trump-dispute-free-world-need-a-new-leader">the incident</a>.
What Happened: The meeting, attended by Vice President&nbsp;JD Vance, escalated into a heated argument. Zelenskyy was in the U.S. to discuss peace talks between Ukraine and Russia, which Trump asserted were close to resolution.
In an interview <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/media/zelenskyy-speaks-out-after-public-spat-trump-vance-dustup-bad-both-sides">with</a> Fox News, Zelenskyy highlighted the longstanding relationship between the U.S. and Ukraine, stating, &#8220;It&#8217;s&nbsp;relations more than two presidents.&#8221; He expressed gratitude to the American public for their support.
Despite the confrontation, Zelenskyy remarked he was&nbsp;&#8220;not sure that we did&nbsp;something bad,&#8221; but acknowledged the incident&nbsp;was &#8220;bad for both sides."
He emphasized the need for a proper understanding of the situation to maintain the friendship between the nations.
&#8220;I respect president Trump and the American people, but we have to be very honest and direct to understand each other,&#8221; said Zelenskyy.
The altercation led to the cancellation of a press conference and the suspension of a minerals deal between the U.S. and Ukraine. A White House official reported that Trump asked Zelenskyy to leave the premises following the exchange.
Why It Matters: The confrontation between Zelenskyy and Trump has sparked international attention. European leaders, including&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/03/44064702/european-leaders-rally-behind-zelenskyy-amid-trump-dispute-free-world-need-a-new-leader?upcache=2">Ursula von der Leyen</a>&nbsp;and Antonio Costa, have rallied behind Zelenskyy, emphasizing their unwavering support for Ukraine amid the ongoing conflict with Russia. They reassured Zelenskyy that he is &#8220;never alone&#8221; in this struggle.
The meeting was initially intended to finalize a U.S.-Ukraine agreement on critical mineral supplies, a form of repayment for military aid. However, the discussions took a confrontational turn when Trump accused Zelenskyy of &#8220;gambling with World War III,&#8221; as noted by&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/global/25/02/44057033/this-is-something-that-president-trump-does-over-and-over-again-geopolitical-strategist-says-about-failed-rare-minerals-deal-with-ukraine-president-zelenskyy">Benzinga</a>.

Zelenskyy Says 'Not Sure' He Did Something Bad After Public Spat With Trump, JD Vance: 'We Have To Be Very Honest And Direct'

European leaders have thrown their support behind&nbsp;Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy&nbsp;following a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/global/25/02/44057033/this-is-something-that-president-trump-does-over-and-over-again-geopolitical-strategist-says-about-failed-rare-minerals-deal-with-ukraine-president-zelenskyy">contentious</a> meeting with President&nbsp;Donald Trump&nbsp;at the White House. The confrontation has intensified concerns regarding the ongoing conflict between Russia and Ukraine.
What Happened: During a meeting in the Oval Office, Trump criticized Zelenskyy for not expressing gratitude and accused him of being unprepared for peace. Trump further alleged that Zelensky&#8217;s actions could potentially lead to World War III.
In response, European Union leaders, including&nbsp;Ursula von der Leyen&nbsp;and&nbsp;Antonio Costa, reassured Zelenskyy of their unwavering support. They emphasized that he is &#8220;never alone&#8221; in this struggle.
"Dear Ukrainian friends, you are not alone," Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk said on X in a post addressed to Zelensky.

European Leaders Rally Behind Zelenskyy Amid Trump Dispute: 'Free World Needs A New Leader'

EV giant Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) is offering discounts of up to $7950 on the older version of its Model Y SUV, before it starts <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/tech/25/01/43183608/tesla-launches-refreshed-model-y-in-us-with-25-price-hike-full-self-driving-included">delivering the refreshed version </a>of the vehicle in March.
What Happened: While the long-range rear-wheel drive variant is listed with as much as $3720 discount, the long-range all-wheel drive variant is listed with as much as $4950 discount, and the performance version with up to $7950 in discounts.
The offers come as the company is gearing up to start deliveries of its refreshed Model Y. 
Tesla launched the refreshed version of its best-selling Model Y SUV in January. Deliveries of the vehicle are slated to start in March. 
Why It Matters: The refreshed Model Y long-range all-wheel drive is now listed on Tesla&#8217;s website alongside the older models, with a starting price of $59,990, roughly 25% more expensive than its predecessor. 
Model Y, launched in 2020, is Tesla's best-selling vehicle. The launch of the refreshed vehicle comes after the company reported its first decline in annual global deliveries in over a decade.
Tesla reported global&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/movers/25/01/42766117/tesla-stock-tumbles-on-q4-deliveries-whats-going-on" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">deliveries of 1.79 million</a>&nbsp;vehicles in 2024, down from full-year deliveries of 1.81 million in 2023.

Tesla Offers Deep Discounts Of Up To $7950 On The Model Y As The EV Giant Gears Up To Deliver The Refreshed Version

General Motors (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GM#NYSE">GM</a>) consumers are most loyal to the manufacturer while Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) vehicle owners are most loyal to the vehicle make, according to automotive research firm S&amp;P Global Mobility.
What Happened: S&amp;P Global Mobility announced the winners of its automotive loyalty awards earlier this week based on a review of 13.1 million new retail vehicle registrations in the U.S. from January to December 2024. Overall, loyalty rates increased year-on-year for the third time in a row in 2024, the firm said. More consumers are remaining with their previous brand when purchasing a new vehicle, the firm noted.
While GM won the award for overall loyalty to the manufacturer, Tesla won the award for overall loyalty to the make. Both companies are repeat winners, having bagged loyalty awards in 2023.
Lincoln Corsair, manufactured by Ford Motor Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/F#NYSE">F</a>), won the award for overall loyalty to the model.
Why It Matters: "While brand loyalty is still below pre-pandemic levels, we are starting to see a consistent trend of customers going back to the brands they are familiar with," said Joe LaFeir, President, Automotive Insights, S&amp;P Global Mobility. "This will be important as we navigate a period of uncertainty in our industry assessing tariff and trade impacts on vehicle demand, making retention an even greater indicator of brand health."
President Donald Trump has <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/global/25/02/43926015/trump-confirms-tariffs-on-canada-mexico-will-take-effect-as-planned">proposed 25% tariffs on imports from Mexico and Canada</a>, slated to be effective on March. 4. The move is expected to impact the automotive industry significantly as <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/tech/25/02/43524700/ford-ceo-jim-farley-says-trumps-proposed-tariffs-on-mexico-canada-will-be-manageable-in-near-term-but-will-have-huge-impact-if-protracted">GM and Ford manufacture</a> some of their vehicles in Mexico and also have supply chains that depend on cross-border component movement.
"There's no question that tariffs at 25% level from Canada, Mexico, if they're protracted, would have a huge impact on our industry, with billions of dollars of industry profits wiped out and adverse effect on the US jobs as well as the entire value system in our industry. Tariffs would also mean higher prices for customers," Ford CEO Jim Farley said earlier this month.

Tesla Owners Stay True To Their Cars, While GM Retains The Most Loyal Customers

Starlink has introduced a new monthly plan in the U.S. in a bid to lower the cost of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/07/39747379/starlink-mini-hardware-now-available-for-us-customers-looking-for-connectivity-on-the-go-for-599">satellite internet access </a>and appeal to a wider range of customers.
What Happened: The newly introduced residential lite monthly plan is priced at $80, lower than the residential plan priced at $120 per month.
The residential lite plan will give you a lower network speed of 50-100 Mbps as compared to 150-200 Mbps for the $120 plan. The low-cost plan, however, is only available in select areas, unlike the residential plan which is available across the country. 
&#8220;Users on Residential Lite plan are prioritized behind Residential and will see slower speeds during peak hours,&#8221; Starlink warns on its website. When most users are online, customers on the lite plan may experience slower speeds, it said. 
The $80 plan, Starlink says, is best for low usage and smaller households. However, it is unavailable in Maine and Nebraska, among other places. The plan is for use at fixed, land-based locations in select areas, and customers on the plan can upgrade to the residential plan at any time. 
Why It Matters: Starlink is the satellite internet segment of SpaceX connecting more than 5 million people with internet across 125 countries, territories, and other markets.
SpaceX, to date, has launched over 8000 Starlink satellites to low Earth orbit, of which over 6000 are in operational orbit, according to a study by astronomer Jonathan McDowell.
The company <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/space/25/01/42755343/spacex-hits-new-milestone-in-2024-with-134-launches">completed 134 launches in 2024</a>, excluding four test flights of its Starship launch vehicle, a whopping majority of which were Starlink missions.

(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) CEO Elon Musk said on Friday that it is still awaiting regulatory clearance to roll out its full self-driving (FSD) driver assistance technology in Europe, despite rolling its<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/02/43932533/tesla-starts-rolling-out-fsd-features-in-china"> features out in China </a>earlier this week.
What Happened: &#8220;We are waiting for regulatory approval,&#8221; Musk said in a post on X.

</figure>
In September, Tesla said that it would roll out FSD in Europe and China in the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/09/40724069/tesla-fsd-rollout-in-china-europe-planned-for-q1-2025" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">first quarter of 2025</a>. The company started rolling out FSD features in China earlier this week, but not in Europe.
FSD Rollout In China: In China, Tesla did not explicitly term the newly rolled out driving assistance features for city streets as FSD, but they are similar to those included under FSD in the U.S.
Following a software update, the Tesla vehicle will identify traffic lights, allow for automatic lane changes, and more, the company said. The cabin camera will also monitor whether the driver is paying attention to the road while the features are working.
The company is pushing out the update to vehicles in batches on some models, the company said, while adding that the range of compatible models will be gradually expanded.
&#8220;Layer Cake Of Regulations&#8221;: In January, during Tesla&#8217;s fourth-quarter earnings call, Musk said that regulations are <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/tech/25/02/43647669/tesla-releases-supervised-full-self-driving-in-mexico-says-hola-to-local-drivers">preventing the launch</a> of FSD in Europe.
"Europe is a layer cake of regulations and bureaucracy, which really needs to be addressed," Musk said while adding that he does not see FSD being launched in Europe in the first quarter.
The CEO then said that the company has to go through a &#8220;mountain of paperwork.&#8221;

After FSD Rollout In China, Musk Says Rollout In Europe Delayed Owing To Lack Of Approvals

One month into Donald Trump's presidency, the cryptocurrency industry's euphoria over anticipated deregulation is giving way to a sobering realization: meaningful change may take years, not weeks. 
At a Denarii Labs-hosted panel titled &#8220;Regulatory Crossfire: What's Next for Crypto in 2025,&#8221; held at the Eth Denver summit, legal experts Jonathan Turnham of NXT Law and Nick Pullman of One Law dissected the U.S. regulatory landscape, questioning whether the administration can deliver on its blockchain promises—or if global competitors will seize the moment first.
The discussion comes amid a whirlwind of post-election speculation. 
Crypto markets surged in late 2024, hoping that Trump's administration would usher in a golden era of regulatory relief, fueled by the president's meme coin ventures and public statements favoring digital assets.
Yet, 30 days into his term, tangible progress remains elusive. 
"We've seen a number of efforts spot-cundered," said Pullman, a legal advisor at One Law, referencing stalled initiatives like stablecoin regulation. "These things take time."
Turnham, a Cayman Islands-based lawyer with a decade of crypto law experience at NXT Law, echoed the sentiment, tempering enthusiasm with pragmatism. 
"There's been a reality check," he noted, pointing to the gap between initial market exuberance and the slow grind of policy-making. 
The panelists agreed that while the Securities and Exchange Commission's (SEC) recent decisions to drop enforcement cases against firms like Uniswap Labs and Coinbase signal a potential softening, it's far from a regulatory revolution.
The SEC's pivot under Acting Chair Hester Peirce, who now leads a rebooted crypto task force, and the expected confirmation of Paul Atkins as chair, marks a stark contrast to Gary Gensler's enforcement-heavy tenure. 
Turnham expressed cautious optimism: "Those dropped cases involved mature projects with mature legal teams that tried to engage with regulators. 
The fact that it happened quickly is progress." 
He suggested Atkins, a respected figure with a pro-business bent, could bring "tough love and guidance" to an industry craving clarity.
Pullman predicted a pause in the SEC's aggressive posture, potentially reducing the need for reactive lawsuits like the Blockchain Association's challenge to the IRS. 
"We've seen more collaboration in six weeks than in six years," he said, citing joint rule-making efforts between the SEC and the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) to clarify the murky divide between securities and commodities in crypto.

Yet, challenges loom. Defining "decentralized" remains a sticking point, and Pullman warned that stablecoin regulations—like the Stables Act of 2025—could stifle innovation if consumer protections (e.g., mandatory KYC whitelists) clash with interoperability. 
"It's going to be challenging," he admitted, though he sees a path forward with better disclosures.
Beyond U.S. borders, the panel highlighted a jurisdictional arms race. Europe's Markets in Crypto-Assets (MiCA) framework, despite implementation hiccups across 27 nations, has prompted regulatory arbitrage, with some firms fleeing stringent rules. 
Turnham's clients, many operating globally from the Cayman Islands, view the U.S. as a potential counterweight—if it can act decisively. "There's competition between jurisdictions," he said. "If Trump wants to bring it back here, he needs a regime people trust."
Emerging markets like India and Brazil, however, lag. Turnham attributed this to fears of losing financial control: "Governments historically use capital controls as a lever. Crypto threatens that." 
Pullman added that building international trust in such markets takes decades, citing the Cayman Islands' decades-long reputation as a stable hub.
The panel also spotlighted signs of industry maturity. 
Turnham, who has facilitated over a dozen token-level mergers, sees consolidation as healthy: "It's a recognition that running these businesses globally is difficult." 
Banking support may also rise with the reported end of Operation Choke Point 2.0, though Pullman noted lingering hesitancy from risk-averse institutions. 
Meanwhile, spot crypto ETFs are gaining traction post-SEC softening, though Turnham cautioned that legal hurdles around custody and consumer education persist.
Looking ahead, the interplay between U.S. regulations and global frameworks like the OECD's tax visibility efforts remains fluid. 
"The U.S. is the gold standard everyone's trying to crack," Turnham said, but warned that clarity must come soon to fend off competitors.
For all the optimism, the panelists underscored a central truth: crypto's regulatory fate hinges on execution, not promises. 
"No one wants the time and cost of litigation," Pullman said, advocating for collaboration over courtroom battles. As the Trump administration navigates its first 100 days, the industry watches—hopeful, but no longer starry-eyed.

Crypto's Trump-Era Honeymoon Fades As Regulatory Reality Sets In

Throughout his campaign and into his second term as president, so far, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/25/02/43858129/as-trump-pushes-for-reciprocal-tariffs-vietnam-looks-to-increase-us-farm-product-imports-to-ease-trade-risks">President Donald Trump</a> has outlined ambitious plans for taxes that could reduce federal revenue by $5 trillion to $11.2 trillion over the next decade, according to estimates from the Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget.&nbsp;
This plan would effectively increase the nation's debt by eliminating current or anticipated revenue sources. It includes extending tax cuts from the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/financial-advisors/24/11/41868686/how-trumps-win-will-change-tax-planning">2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act</a>, and it would also expand deductions and provide targeted tax relief for specific groups.&nbsp;
Some argue that these tax cuts could spur economic growth, however, critics warn that there are severe fiscal consequences, particularly in regard to rising the national debt.&nbsp;

</ul>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">What Does Trump's Tax Plan Entail?</h2>
The tax package, according to the CFRB, includes several major components:
<ul>
<li>Extending the 2017 Tax Cuts: The TCJA tax cuts are set to expire in 2025, however under Trump's plan, these would be extended, with an estimated federal revenue reduction of $3.9 trillion to $4.8 trillion.</li>
<li>State and Local Tax Deduction Relief: Expanding the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/real-estate/24/09/40980998/trump-vows-to-restore-salt-deduction-promising-relief-for-high-tax-state-homeowners">SALT deduction</a> could cost between $200 billion and $1.2 trillion, depending on the scope of the policy.</li>
<li>Tax Cuts on Tips, Overtime, and Social Security Benefits: The CFRB estimates eliminating these taxes could total anywhere from $900 billion to $5 trillion, depending on how they are implemented.</li>
<li>Tax Breaks for Domestic Production: A tax cut aimed at boosting American manufacturing could reduce revenue by $100 billion to $200 billion.</li>
<li>Closing the Carried Interest Loophole and Limiting Stadium Tax Breaks: While these changes could raise between $20 billion and $100 billion, they only offset a small portion of the proposed cuts.</li>
</ul>
Totaling the ranges of each estimate brings the fiscal impact of Trump's tax plans to between $5 trillion and $11.2 trillion.&nbsp;
Trending: Can you guess how many Americans successfully retire with $1,000,000 saved?<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/1milsaved"> The percentage may shock you</a>.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">How Would This Impact The Economy?&nbsp;</h2>
Those in favor of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/25/02/43901103/medicaid-faces-880-billion-cuts-but-trump-says-social-security-is-safe">Trump's tax plans</a> state that reducing taxes could spur economic growth through the encouragement of new investments and job creation. They also point out the benefits that middle-class workers would receive by not having to pay taxes on their tips or overtime earnings.&nbsp;
However, without offsets, the CRFB estimates that the plan could push the national debt to between 132% and 149% of GDP by 2035, up from approximately 100% currently. This is nearly double or triple the projected growth to 118% under current law. Interest costs alone could rise by $1.2 trillion to $2.7 trillion over the next decade, increasing the risk of a fiscal crisis.
One major concern is the potential impact on programs like Social Security and Medicare. The CRFB warns that tax reductions on <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/25/02/43831371/eliminating-social-security-income-taxes-would-cost-1-5-trillion-and-deplete-the-trust-fund-by-2032-who-wins-and-who-loses">Social Security benefits</a>, combined with other revenue losses, could weaken these trust funds. Additionally, broad tax cuts could exacerbate income shifting and tax avoidance, reducing projected revenue even further.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Weighing the Trade-offs</h2>
Trump&#8217;s tax plan presents a clear trade-off between economic stimulus and fiscal responsibility. While tax cuts could provide immediate financial relief and potentially stimulate growth, the long-term impact on national debt and government-funded programs remains a critical consideration.&nbsp;
"Policymakers should scale back and more carefully target their tax agenda and ensure that any tax cuts are part of a package to lower deficits. There are plenty of offsets available. Reconciliation should reduce, not add to, budget deficits," the CRFB warns.&nbsp;
Without offsets or spending reductions, the plan could push federal debt to levels unseen in U.S. history.
As policymakers debate the proposal, the key question remains: Can tax cuts of this magnitude drive enough economic expansion to offset their cost, or will they lead the country toward an unsustainable fiscal path?

Trump's $5 Trillion To $11 Trillion Tax Plan: A Boost For Growth Or A Path To Unprecedented Debt?

Many are concerned about the accessibility of social security services as the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/25/02/43957909/social-security-in-uncertain-times-what-the-resignation-of-michelle-king-and-musks-doge-data-push-could-mean-for-beneficiaries-2">Social Security Administration</a> faces office closures. As of Feb. 26, several locations have been closed or consolidated due to budget cuts and a federal push for streamlining government operations.&nbsp;
These changes, made by <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/02/43962364/president-trump-says-inflation-is-back-claims-its-not-his-fault-but-bidens-i-had-nothing-to-do-with-it">President Donald Trump</a>'s administration and the Department of Government Efficiency, have left many beneficiaries wondering how these closures will impact their access to important services.&nbsp;
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Why Are Offices Closing?&nbsp;</h2>
The federal government has initiated widespread efforts to reduce operational costs, led by <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/25/02/43906977/elon-musks-doge-savings-of-55-billion-may-be-overstated-wsj-analysis-reveals-the-likely-actual-figure">DOGE</a>, including terminating leases for 7,500 federal buildings, some of which are used by the SSA, <a href="https://www.newsweek.com/full-list-social-security-office-closings-after-doge-cuts-2035533">according to Newsweek</a>. Already struggling with staffing shortages, the SSA's closures may worsen delays for beneficiaries.&nbsp;

</ul>
Former SSA Commissioner Martin O'Malley testified to Congress last year the agency would be serving 7 million more beneficiaries with considerably less staff by the end of 2024. He also warned that the SSA can't "keep doing more with less" while budget constraints force the agency to its lowest staffing level in 25 years.&nbsp;
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Which Locations Are Affected?</h2>
The following Social Security offices have either closed or are in the process of closing:
<ul>
<li>White Plains, New York</li>
<li>Logan, West Virginia</li>
<li>Carlsbad, California</li>
<li>Roanoke Rapids, North Carolina</li>
<li>Batesville, Arkansas</li>
<li>Columbus, Ohio</li>
<li>Okemos, Michigan</li>
<li>Nacogdoches, Texas</li>
<li>Green Bay, Wisconsin</li>
<li>Las Vegas</li>
</ul>
While some offices have been consolidated or reassigned to new locations, the closures are expected to lead to longer wait times and more difficulty for beneficiaries trying to access services.&nbsp;

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Concerns For Travel and Disabled Beneficiaries</h2>
The closures and consolidation of offices raise particular concerns for individuals with disabilities. As Mary Ellen O&#8217;Connor, founder of O&#8217;Connor Law PLLC, told Newsweek these individuals often rely on accessible, local offices to receive support. For many, traveling long distances or navigating online systems is not a viable option.
&#8220;Disabled individuals seeking benefits face unique obstacles,&#8221; O&#8217;Connor said. &#8220;Many rely on local, accessible offices and personalized support, and the move to remote hearings and longer travel distances creates extra barriers.&#8221;
These challenges are particularly pronounced for people with limited transportation options, those who require special accommodations, and those struggling with digital literacy. While online hearings may be helpful for some, O&#8217;Connor emphasized that they are not suitable for everyone, especially those with hearing or visual impairments.
The changes have sparked concern among lawmakers as well. Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand (D-NY) York, sent a letter to the SSA regarding the closure of the White Plains office.&nbsp;
&#8220;As the only hearing office in the lower Hudson Valley region, its closure will
negatively impact thousands of constituents who reside in these seven counties,&#8221; Gillibrand wrote. "If SSA does not open an alternative site, beneficiaries will be required to travel between 24 and 135 miles to be serviced by the closest offices."&nbsp;
She also noted that travel costs and time would significantly increase, creating hardship for many.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">What Happens Next?</h2>
With these closures, it's essential for beneficiaries to stay informed about any changes to their local offices. The SSA has advised individuals to check their website for updates and to consider using online services where possible.&nbsp;
For beneficiaries who rely on in-person support, alternatives may not always be available. The SSA is also grappling with a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/02/43871609/trumps-federal-workforce-downsizing-plan-gets-green-light-from-judge-appeal-by-unions-dismissed">reduced workforce</a> and increasing backlogs. The agency is working to ensure that services continue, but the closures and staff shortages may lead to delays in processing claims and handling cases.

It's a pivot from 2023 and 2024, when the seven companies posted enormous gains and drove the broader market higher. The Magnificent Seven had surged more than 160% between the start of 2023 and the end of 2024, <a href="https://www.ft.com/content/fa5d3b2d-b3b3-4bb4-a5a4-765b7560e02c">according to the FT</a>, but the index has added just 1% so far this year. 
Investors are rotating into other sectors, with U.S. bank stocks attracting almost $2 billion in the week ended Feb. 3—the second-largest weekly inflow since 2008, according to Bank of America data cited by FT. Healthcare companies, European equities, gold, and smaller tech groups have also benefited from this repositioning.

Most market watchers view the broadening gains as healthy for what had become an expensive, top-heavy market. However, JPMorgan analysts led by Mislav Matejka caution that faster AI adoption and fewer barriers to entry could spell long-term trouble for the established tech giants.

이 발견은 전국적으로 계란 가격이 12개에 4.15달러로 치솟은 12월에 발생했다. 미국 농무부는 조류 인플루엔자 영향으로 올해 계란 가격이 추가로 20% 상승할 것으로 전망하고 있다고 별도의 AP 통신 <a href="https://apnews.com/article/egg-prices-bird-flu-poultry-inflation-9ea9934e20e3fe393abb1bb85aa31c30">보도</a>했다.
타이밍은 특히 중요하다. 백신 회의론자로 알려진 케네디는 이번 주 보건복지부 장관 인준 청문회를 앞두고 있다. 그의 잠재적 임명은 이미 시장 심리에 영향을 미쳤으며, 일부 백신 주식은 변동성을 보였다.
&#8220;동시에 WHO와의 분리와 새로운 건강 위협이 발생하는 것은 의료 투자자들에게 상당한 불확실성을 야기한다&#8221;고 제프리 클라우스너(Jeffrey Klausner) 박사, 남가주대학교 공공보건 전문가가 말했다.
참고: <a href="https://kr.benzinga.com/news/usa/stocks/%EC%97%94%EB%B9%84%EB%94%94%EC%95%84-%EB%94%A5%EC%8B%9C%ED%81%AC%EA%B0%80-%EC%88%98%EC%B6%9C-%ED%86%B5%EC%A0%9C%EB%A5%BC-%EC%A4%80%EC%88%98%ED%95%98%EB%A9%B4%EC%84%9C-%EC%83%88-ai-%EB%AA%A8%EB%8D%B8/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">엔비디아가 딥시크를 &#8216;사례&#8217;로 언급하며 새로운 AI 모델이 수출 통제 준수 하에 생성될 수 있음을 설명</a>
중요한 이유: 의료 부문의 반응은 더 넓은 시장 우려를 반영한다. iShares Genomics Immunology and Healthcare ETF(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/IDNA#NASDAQ">IDNA</a>)는 올해 1.2% 상승한 반면, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/biotech/25/01/42882233/bird-flu-sparks-vaccine-stock-surge-etfs-to-watch-as-h5n1-outbreak-intensifies">주요 백신 생산자들</a>는 여전히 독감 대비를 위해 정부 계약을 상당수 보유하고 있다.
사노피 SA(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SNY#NASDAQ">SNY</a>), 글락소스미스클라인 PLC(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GSK#NYSE">GSK</a>) 그리고 다른 제조사들은 작년 10월 조류 인플루엔자 백신 생산을 위한 7,200만 달러의 연방 자금을 확보했다. 모더나는 mRNA 기반 H5N1 백신 개발을 위해 미국 보건부(HHS) 산하 질병예방대응본부(ASPR) 직속 생물의학첨단연구개발국(BARDA)로부터 1억 7,600만 달러를 별도로 받았다.
CDC의 결정은 도널드 트럼프 대통령의 WHO 탈퇴 명령에 따른 것이지만, 완전한 탈퇴는 의회의 <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/01/43125408/trump-signs-order-to-withdraw-us-from-who-again-cites-funding-governance-concerns">승인과 1년의 통지 기간</a>이 필요하다.
