Donald Trump isn't sure that migrants are entitled to due process, or if he needs to uphold the Constitution. He says he'll check with Attorney General Pam Bondi though and get back to us. That's just one of many bonkers moments from the president's sit down interview with NBC's Meet the Press.
It's Funday Monday folks! The Roosevelt Institute's director of industrial policy and trade Dr. Todd Tucker joins Emma and Sam to break down the impact of the Trump administration's tariffs, as well as what a progressive tariffs regime might look like. Trump seems to see trade deficits as a zero sum game that he's asking Americans to make a huge sacrifice to win, though it's not clear why.
In the Fun Half, we hear from the head of the Port of L.A. who is raising the alarm about slowdown in global trade, which could lead to shortages of goods in the U.S. and a reduction in workers needed at ports and in shipping. At the same time, Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy is practically begging people to become air traffic controllers because of a shortage of them at the FAA. This is after Duffy reportedly got into a shouting match with Musk about DOGE's targeting of the FAA. Chuck Schumer tries to take a victory lap over Trump's abysmal approval rating, but, whoops! His approval rating is also in the toilet.
