U.S. Customs and Border Protection appears to be contradicting President Donald Trumps comments on the daily revenue generated by his latest slate of tariffs.

The agency said in a statement to CNBC, Since April 5, CBP has collected over $500 million under the new reciprocal tariffs, contributing to more than $21 billion in total tariff revenue from 15 presidential trade actions implemented since Jan 20, 2025.

The update comes after a 10-hour glitch in the finance system prevented U.S. importers from inputting a code that would have exempted freight that was already on the water from being subject to the higher duties.

Even during the brief glitch, CBPs average $250 million/day revenue stream remained uninterrupted, CBP said in its statement.
Trump has repeatedly said the United States is taking in $2 billion per day from tariffs.

U.S. CUSTOMS AND BORDER PROTECTION, CBP, IS OUT OF CONTROL AT LEVELS NEVER SEEN AND WILL BE SUED TO THE FULL EXTENT. THANK YOU!
