Trump tariffs, Abbas, Meta chatbots, UK migration and Tony Hawk
About this episode
A U.S. court rules most Trump-era tariffs illegal but leaves them in place for now. The U.S. blocks Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas from attending the UN General Assembly. Meta has appropriated the names and likenesses of celebrities to create dozens of flirty social-media chatbots without their permission. A UK asylum hotel ruling comes amid anti-migration unrest and as national flags appear across British streets. And Tony Hawk’s legendary skateboard heads to auction - with a price tag that could hit $700,000.
