02:15:50
Over the weekend, President Trump slapped down his first tariffs against America’s two biggest trading partners, Canada and Mexico. He insists this is mainly about border safety, undocumented
migrants, and the flow of drugs and contraband into America. Canada and Mexico stood strong both insisting retaliatory measures are coming.
Under Trump’s tariffs, most products from Mexico and Canada will get a 25% tariff except for Canadian oil at 10%. Trump is also putting
an additional 10% tariff on goods from China in addition to existing duties. There is a little time to negotiate as the new tariffs won’t go into effect until just after midnight on Tuesday morning,
We’ll check in with iHeart TV and radio political analyst Gary Dietrich about the tariffs and word that Elon Musk and his team now have control of the US Treasury.
State lawmakers in Tennessee are willingly giving up some of their voting power. Now, lawmakers who vote against strict immigration laws and support sanctuary city rules could find themselves arrested if they vote the “wrong way.” Tennessee State Senator Heidi Campbell will join us to share details.
Author and political commentator Jared Sexton will stop by in the second hour.
Karen Dawn of Dawn Watch will wrap it all up with a word about aimals.
