This is what a day.
The show that is preparing to remind every American that we'll see and we'll be looking at that very closely, are not actual indications of policy decisions.
And more and more people are saying that this all sucks.
On today's show, Robert F.
Kennedy Jr.
And Tulsi Gabbard gear up for their highly anticipated Senate confirmation hearings.
And the Trump administration breaks the law with late night inspector general firings.
But let's start with the economy and trade today.
In a throwback to his first term, President Donald Trump fired up his social media account on Sunday to make a major policy decision via post.
Trump said on Truth social that the US would immediately slap a 25% tariff on all goods from Colombia and could raise it to 50% in the next week.
He also announced financial sanctions on Colombia and a travel ban for government officials, among other penalties.
Why is Trump doing all of this?
Because Colombian President Gustavo Petro blocked two US Military planes carrying migrants from landing in the country.
Petro confirmed the move in a statement on Twitter.
He said the United States can't treat Colombian migrants like criminals and that there needs to be a protocol to treat them with dignity before Colombia will receive them later.
Petro ordered his trade minister to slap a 25% retaliatory tariff on American imports to Colombia, too.
