About this episode
U.S. President Donald Trump has threatened to cut off government contracts to Elon Musk’s companies after he suggested the President should be impeached. Elon Musk threatens – and then rolls it back – a decommission of SpaceX’s Dragon – the only U.S. spacecraft capable of sending astronauts to the ISS. And we look at Trump’s travel ban as the administration intensifies its immigration crackdown. * This pod has been updated to remove references to a potential telephone call between President Trump and Elon Musk. A White House official said on Friday that no phone call between the two men is planned for the day. Sign up for the Reuters Econ World newsletter here .
