Summary

CNN has learned Tesla, the company owned by Elon Musk, said this week that retaliatory tariffs against US manufacturers could harm its operations and that the US should carefully consider its trade policies. The March 11 letter to the US Trade Representative is a break from Musk's ally President Trump. The letter is unsigned. Plus, how some regulations at the EPA designed to help poor and minority communities fight pollution are being gutted in the name of Trump's anti-DEI policies. Anderson speaks with Christine Todd Whitman, the former EPA Administrator during George W. Bush's first term. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
