If you had a pull string doll of Donald Trump, “Tariffs!” would most certainly be in the rotation of nonsense you’d hear him spout.
Well, after 11 months since Trump’s “Liberation Day,” when he announced sweeping global tariffs on allies and adversaries alike, the Supreme Court finally knocked down his economic plan in a 6-3 decision. And he’s definitely not mad.
Susan J. Demas and Sam Osterhout highlighted the SCOTUS decision and the reaction from Washington to Wall Street on Weekly Assignment. And we’re putting out this week’s call to action — give us our refund!
Susan and Sam also welcomed Erin Dobson and Trygve Olson of the Democracy Investment Fund to discuss their new app, LSTN2U. The app is designed to give you the tools to build those bridges with friends and family across the aisle you might you’ve lost touch with because of politics. Their hope for this is simple: “Strengthen relationships, not break them.”
Tell us about your experience using the app in the comments. And check out the whole episode of The Weekly Assignment here on Lincoln Square.
