Biden doubling down on tariffs
Update: 2024-05-25
Description
More tariffs from the Joe Biden administration on Chinese goods are on the way, and he gave his blessing to some Trump-era tariffs. We’ll break it down. Plus, why a story about a local public library becoming an adults-only space may be a warning of things to come. Later, we’ll weigh in on Chuck E. Cheese’s animatronic band, whales sinking yachts and “quiet vacationing” during a round of Half Full / Half Empty!
Here’s everything we talked about today:
- “Biden Extends Tariff Exemptions on Some Imports From China” from Bloomberg
