Tariff ICK

Tariff ICK

John has a mixed bag of news today. First, he discusses the latest with Trump's tariffs which seem to be growing every minute. Then, he talks about the escalation in the Texas gerrymandering stand off - agents from the FBI have been directed to assist Texas Gov. Greg Abbott in the roundup and arrest of democratic politicians on the run from his gerrymander bill. After that, he discusses Trump calling for a "new" census that excludes people in the U.S. without legal status. The 14th Amendment requires the "whole number of persons in each state" to be included in a key set of census numbers used to determine how presidents and members of Congress are elected. And then he mentions that Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth announced that Arlington National Cemetery will be restoring a Confederate monument created by Moses Ezekiel which has been criticized for misrepresenting the history of slavery. Ezekiel was a Confederate soldier who spent much of his artistic career promoting the “Lost Cause” myth that the Civil War was just and heroic, and not a treasonous war fought to uphold slavery. John then interviews Dr. Kristin Lyerly, a practicing OBGYN based in Wisconsin, is a board member of the Committee to Protect Health Care – a national health care advocacy organization made up of thousands of doctors across the country fighting for access to care for their patients and holding politicians accountable, including President Trump. Find her at Bluesky: @DrKristin4wi.bsky.social. And closing it up he chats to listeners about the Epstein files and Trump's tariffs.
