White House blasts Amazon over tariff cost report: 'Hostile and political act

48. Here is what they (WH) are saying from the NYT story.

There’s a fresh spat brewing between the White House and Amazon.

Karoline Leavitt, the White House press secretary, on Tuesday accused the online retail giant of being “hostile and political,” citing a report — disputed by Amazon — from Punchbowl News saying that the company would start displaying the exact cost of tariff-related price increases alongside its products.

Displaying the import fees would have made clear to American consumers that they are shouldering the cost of President Trump’s tariff policies rather than China, as he and his top officials have often claimed would be the case.
