How Trump’s Tariffs Forced Trudeau and Mexico to Bend the Knee | 11/26/24

Sara and the panel discuss Trump's vow to place new and additional tariffs on Canada, Mexico, and China and the effects it is already having. Trudeau got on the phone with President-elect Trump to discuss the border and Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum stopping a northbound immigrant caravan. Trump is over a month away from inauguration, yet he’s already shaking things up on the global stage. The panel shifts attention to California’s Governor Newsom. Newsom responded to President-elect Trump’s statement that he was eliminating Biden’s electric vehicle tax rebate. Newsom has decided to institute his own EV tax credits. However, he will not extend the tax credits to those who purchase a Tesla. All indications point toward Newsom having a political vendetta against his state’s only EV manufacturer. The panel pivots to the news that Big Government and Big Pharma are teaming up yet again — this time to offer a weight loss drug to Medicaid and Medicare recipients. Sara and the panel are of the mindset that pharmaceuticals should be an absolute last resort, never the first resort. American pharmaceutical companies continue lining their pockets off the poor health of American citizens. The episode concludes with Sara and the panel discussing CNBC’s news that Thanksgiving is more affordable this year than in previous years. Anyone who's been to the grocery store recently understands how farcical that statement sounds. Sara is joined by BlazeTV contributor Jaco Booyens, host of "The Bottom Line," and Eric July, founder of Rippaverse Comics.
