White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt and Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent criticized Amazon for its reported plan to display the cost of President Trump’s tariffs alongside products, labeling it a “hostile and political act.” Leavitt questioned why Amazon did not take similar actions during the Biden administration’s inflation spike and accused the company of partnering with a Chinese propaganda arm. An Amazon spokesperson clarified that showing tariff costs was only considered for its budget section, Amazon Haul, not the main site.
