Trump Attempts To Shut Down USAID And Imposes Tariffs

Trump Attempts To Shut Down USAID And Imposes Tariffs

This past weekend, President Trump imposed new tariffs on Mexico, Canada, and China. He has since walked back the 25% on Mexican imports after a conversation with Mexico's president. The others are still set to take effect on Tuesday.

Then, Elon Musk announced that his DOGE was shutting down USAID as part of his initiative to slash government spending.

This episode: White House correspondents Tamara Keith and Franco Ordoñez and senior political editor and correspondent Domenico Montanaro.

The podcast is produced by Bria Suggs & Kelli Wessinger, and edited by Casey Morell. Our executive producer is Muthoni Muturi.
