About this episode
This week, a tug-of-war over the Trump administration’s sweeping tariffs imposed using the International Emergency Economic Powers Act of 1977. The Court of International Trade blocked President Trump’s tariffs, arguing the act did not give the President unbounded tariff authority. The White House economic team is confident the administration will defeat this legal challenge, with an appeals court already ruling that these tariffs can remain in effect pending the appeal. FOX News Sunday anchor Shannon Bream joins the Rundown to highlight this legal challenge to the President’s tariffs, Elon Musk’s departure from the Trump administration, and investigations being launched into the Biden administration. President Trump wants a lot more nuclear power production in the United States, signing executive orders a week ago focused on quadrupling U.S. capacity within 25 years. Nuclear power has long been associated with high-profile disasters and fears of mishaps, but nuclear advocates say it actually is cleaner and safer than fossil fuels. Jacob DeWitte is the co-founder and CEO of nuclear technology company Oklo, and he was at the executive order signing. He joins the podcast to explain the strides made in making nuclear reactors safer and more efficient. Plus, commentary from FOX News Digital columnist David Marcus.
