Today’s Headlines: Matt Gaetz pulled out of the Attorney General race after just eight days, calling it a “distraction” as new allegations about a sexual encounter with a minor surfaced. Trump quickly named Pam Bondi, a former Florida AG and his impeachment lawyer, as the new nominee. Trump’s Defense Secretary pick, Pete Hegseth, is facing renewed scrutiny over past assault allegations, while Marjorie Taylor Greene will lead a cost-cutting subcommittee alongside Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy’s new department. Globally, Jair Bolsonaro was indicted for a 2022 coup attempt, the ICC issued war crime warrants for Netanyahu and others, and Iran announced “treatment” for women who defy hijab laws, as Iraq considers lowering the age of consent to nine. In a lighter note, Pope Francis is set to canonize Carlo Acutis, a millennial known as “God’s influencer,” as the first digital saint.

Friday, April 11th, 2025 - Tariff & Market updates; Apple airlifts iPhones; Insider trading probe; SAVE Act; NYC Helicopter crash & more 8:10

för 3 dagar sedan8:10

8:10

Today’s Headlines: The stock market fell sharply Thursday, erasing gains from Wednesday’s rally, after the White House clarified Trump’s China tariffs are effectively 145%, not 125%, and will now include small consumer shipments under the “de minimis” rule—impacting retailers like Shein and Temu. Apple reportedly airlifted 600 tons of iPhones from India to beat the tariffs. Amid the chaos, Democratic senators called for an insider trading investigation following unusually well-timed trades before Trump’s tariff pause announcement. Meanwhile, the House passed the SAVE Act, requiring proof of citizenship to vote in federal elections, and Trump’s budget bill, which includes deep spending cuts and $4.5 trillion in tax breaks for the wealthy. The Supreme Court ordered the Trump administration to help return a Maryland man mistakenly deported to El Salvador, despite unsupported claims he was an MS-13 member. The administration is also moving to place Columbia University under a federal consent decree over antisemitism. Elsewhere, a helicopter crash in the Hudson killed six people, two planes clipped wings at Reagan National Airport, and the Senate confirmed Trump donor George Glass as ambassador to Japan.

Thursday, April 10th, 2025 - Markets whiplash; China and EU fight back; IRS chief quits; Trump targets critics; Jesus enters the budget chat 5:57

för 4 dagar sedan5:57

5:57

Today’s Headlines: Markets are spiraling as global fallout from Trump’s tariffs intensifies. The bond market plunged yesterday, signaling foreign doubts about U.S. economic stability—especially from Japan. China hiked tariffs on American goods to 84%, and the EU approved its first wave of retaliatory tariffs, effective April 15. By afternoon, Trump partially reversed course, pausing tariffs for 90 days on most countries (except China and the EU), leading to a 10% stock market surge—its biggest since 2008. Meanwhile, IRS Commissioner Melanie Krause resigned after backlash over sharing undocumented immigrants’ tax data with ICE, marking the agency’s third leadership exit this year. Trump also floated deporting U.S. prisoners to El Salvador (not legal), signed an executive order to investigate two former officials for treason, and froze nearly $1B in funding to Cornell and Northwestern over campus protests. And in Congress, House Speaker Mike Johnson failed to get enough support for the GOP’s new tax cut-heavy budget—despite one member literally rebuking him “in the name of Jesus.” Resources/Articles mentioned in this episode: NY Times: Bond Sell Off Raises Questions About U.S. Safe Haven Status CNN: China announces 84% tariffs on US goods in showdown with Trump CNBC: European Union approves first set of retaliatory tariffs on U.S. imports CNBC: Trump tariffs: 'Do not retaliate and you will be rewarded,' White House says ABC News: Acting IRS commissioner plans to resign after data-sharing deal with immigration authorities TNR: Press Secretary Says Trump Wasn’t Joking About Deporting U.S. Citizens NBC News: Trump orders probes of two former officials who defied him AP News: About $1.8 billion in federal money for Cornell and Northwestern is frozen, the White House says MSN: 'I rebuke you in the name of Jesus': GOP rep explodes at Johnson in closed-door meeting Morning Announcements is produced by Sami Sage alongside Bridget Schwartz and edited by Grace Hernandez-Johnson Learn more about your ad choices.

Wednesday, April 9th, 2025 - Trade war hits housing; Musk-Navarro drama; DHS pulls legal status; Trump’s SCOTUS win 6:57

för 5 dagar sedan6:57

6:57

Today’s Headlines: Trump’s new tariffs officially went into effect at midnight, sending global markets into a tailspin and pushing U.S. mortgage rates to nearly 7%. Despite White House claims that “tailored deals” are on the way, no countries—including China, which now faces a 104% tariff—secured any agreements before the deadline. Canada also retaliated with a 25% tariff on U.S.-made vehicles. Amidst the economic mess, Elon Musk lashed out at Trump’s trade advisor Peter Navarro, calling him “dumber than bricks,” while the White House responded with a baffling “boys will be boys.” On immigration, the administration announced it would revoke legal status from over 900,000 migrants who used the Biden-era CBP One app to enter the U.S. legally, urging them to voluntarily self-deport. Meanwhile, the IRS is now handing over undocumented taxpayers’ personal info to ICE, sparking fears of a drop in compliance that could cost the U.S. billions. And finally, the Supreme Court ruled that a lower court’s order to reinstate 16,000 fired federal workers can’t move forward—though many will remain on paid leave due to a separate case while a federal judge ruled in favor of the Associated Press after the White House tried to bar them from events for refusing to rename the Gulf of Mexico in their reporting.

Tuesday, April 8th, 2025 - Tariff & global market crash updates; SCOTUS splits on deportations; 238 Venezuelans deported 6:32

för 6 dagar sedan6:32

6:32

Today’s Headlines: The global economy is spiraling as Trump doubles down on tariffs, threatening a 50% increase on China if they don’t back down. Markets tanked again, swinging wildly after a false report hinted at a delay, and the chaos isn't just domestic — Japan’s Nikkei dropped 8% and Europe’s markets fell 4%. Congress remains largely inactive but a few Republican lawmakers are attempting to push back, Trump has already vowed to veto any bill on tariffs. The U.S. also slapped a 17% tariff on Israeli imports, despite Israel dropping theirs in solidarity. Meanwhile, the Supreme Court made two big moves: they temporarily blocked the return of a wrongfully deported Maryland man to El Salvador, but also allowed the administration to keep using an 18th-century law to deport immigrants with minimal due process — a decision so extreme even Amy Coney Barrett joined the dissent. And in Texas, 238 Venezuelan migrants — most with no criminal records — were deported to a maximum security prison in El Salvador.

Monday, April 7th, 2025 - Markets still crashing; China hits back; Tax cuts for the rich; IRS hackathon; NSA firings; Courts fight back 6:44

för 7 dagar sedan6:44

6:44

Today’s Headlines: The world is still reeling from Trump’s sweeping new tariffs, with markets in free fall and no signs of a course correction. Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick confirmed the White House is not backing down, and China quickly retaliated with steep tariffs of its own, sanctions on U.S. companies, and an investigation into DuPont. Dow futures were already down 1600 points before markets even opened, and JP Morgan now puts the risk of a global recession at 60%. Meanwhile, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent brushed off fears, even as he spent the week on Capitol Hill negotiating more tax cuts for the wealthy. In the background, the IRS is quietly working on a project to centralize taxpayer data in a new “mega API” system—likely with Palantir, raising privacy concerns. Elsewhere in the administration, the heads of the NSA and Cyber Command were abruptly fired, reportedly under pressure from far-right activist Laura Loomer. But the courts are beginning to push back: a federal judge ruled the NIH must restore full research funding, another ordered the government to return a man it wrongfully deported to El Salvador, and 19 state attorneys general are suing to block Trump’s executive order requiring proof of citizenship to vote and tossing out mail ballots received after Election Day.

Today’s Headlines: The economic fallout from Trump’s sweeping tariff announcement sent markets crashing—Nasdaq fell 6%, S&P 500 4.8%, erasing $2 trillion in value. The dollar also dropped, and automaker Stellantis announced major layoffs. Global leaders condemned the tariffs, and France and Germany urged companies to pause U.S. investments. In response, bipartisan senators introduced a bill to limit the president’s unilateral tariff powers. Meanwhile, Trump fired several National Security Council members reportedly at the urging of far-right activist Laura Loomer. The Pentagon’s IG opened an investigation into National Security Advisor Pete Hegseth’s role in the Signal group chat scandal. The administration also banned U.S. personnel in China from relationships with Chinese citizens and is requiring public schools to certify they’ve eliminated DEI practices to keep federal funding. Brown University may lose over $500 million in grants amid unconfirmed reports of federal retaliation. Dr. Oz was confirmed to lead Medicare and Medicaid, overseeing a $2.6 trillion budget.

Today’s Headlines: The Trump administration is ending legal status for over 500,000 migrants from Cuba, Haiti, Nicaragua, and Venezuela, giving them 30 days to leave. Meanwhile, the IRS is reportedly close to a deal with Homeland Security to help locate undocumented immigrants, sparking legal challenges. Several U.S. allies, including the UK and Germany, have issued travel advisories, particularly for trans and nonbinary travelers. In Canada, newly appointed PM Mark Carney called for elections, citing Trump’s trade policies as a national crisis. Back in the U.S., Trump initially planned to grant Elon Musk access to top-secret Pentagon briefings on China but later backtracked. Musk is also offering Wisconsin voters $100 to sign petitions ahead of a key state Supreme Court election. The FBI is now investigating vandalism at Tesla locations as "domestic terrorism," which could expand Musk’s access to surveillance data. Finally, Pope Francis has been released from the hospital after a five-week stay for pneumonia.
