Trade, Tariffs, and Humanitarian Crisis

Today on the show, President Trump’s sweeping new tariffs go into effect this week. Fareed speaks with Zanny Minton Beddoes, the editor-in-chief of The Economist, and Oren Cass, founder and chief economist of the conservative think-tank American Compass, about what this trade war could mean for the economy in America and around the world.     

Then, the hunger crisis continues in Gaza. How did it get this bad?  Fareed is joined by Gregg Carlstrom, the Middle East correspondent for The Economist, to explain the backstory of how this happened – and what needs to be done to fix it.   

Finally, Facebook co-founder Chris Hughes sits down with Fareed to talk about his new book “Marketcrafters” and what policymakers can do to effectively shape the American economy.
