Show Notes

Mike Pences former advocacy group, the Advancing American Freedom Foundation, marked the one-year anniversary of Trumps Liberation Day tariffs with a critical stance, labeling it the biggest tax increase since World War Two. They argued that the tariffs have negatively impacted American businesses and families, with Labor Department data supporting their claims, showing fewer manufacturing jobs this February than last April. Trump responded by criticizing the Supreme Court for striking down the tariffs and accusing it of being a weaponized political machine. Despite the courts decision, Trumps team continues to defend the tariffs in public and in court, as costs are passed on to consumers and businesses face policy instability. The conservative-leaning Supreme Court has upheld many of Trumps other actions while lower courts sort things out. Trump has vowed to implement new tariffs using untouched laws, indicating that the trade fight is far from over.
