Summary

The Rich Zeoli Show- Hour 1: 3:05pm- On Saturday, the Trump Administration officially placed a 25% tariff on all goods imported from Canada and Mexico—and a 10% tariff on all goods imported from China. In response, media outlets like The Wall Street Journal editorial board warned that the tariffs would cause American consumers to pay increased prices for imported goods, and that the tariffs would ostensibly serve as a tax. While speaking with the press from the Oval Office, President Donald Trump conceded that tariffs may cause “short-term disruption” but will ultimately result in better trade policies that benefit the U.S. long-term. He also insisted that the tariffs are part of an effort to encourage cooperation to reduce drugs and undocumented migrants pouring across the Southern and Northern borders. On Monday, less than three-days after the tariffs were enacted, the Trump Administration announced a temporary agreement with Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum Pardo which will result in a tariff suspension and Mexico sending 10,000 troops to the U.S.-Mexico border to help secure the U.S. border. 3:15pm- During a press conference, Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer warned that tariffs on Mexican goods will result in increased prices on beer and guacamole right before the Super Bowl. 3:30pm- According to a report from The Wall Street Journal, the Trump Administration is considering a plan that would “dismantle” the Education Department. 3:40pm- On Monday, President Donald Trump and Department of Government Efficiency head Elon Musk seemingly came to an agreement that the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) needs to be seriously evaluated—with Musk going a step further and recommending it be shut down entirely.
