About this episode
In this week’s episode, we break down the chaos surrounding Trump’s escalating tariff war with China, the resulting stock market crash, and the insider trading accusations stemming from his Truth Social post. We dive into the DOJ investigation of former officials Miles Taylor and Chris Krebs, the mounting legal drama over Kilmar Abrigo Garcia’s deportation, and Trump’s $92 million birthday military parade plan. Plus, we unpack the administration’s attacks on climate science and university funding, including threats to Harvard and cuts to Princeton and Cornell. Is Trump manipulating markets? Is this the rise of authoritarianism?
