Economists, Wall Street traders — really, anyone who has a stake in the health of the U.S. economy — are all holding their breaths right now ahead of President Donald Trump’s planned ‘Liberation Day’ Wednesday. That’s when he’s promised to put in place a slew of new tariffs on imported goods from all over the world. But the scope of Trump’s plans is still unclear, and that’s injecting a ton of uncertainty into an already uncertain economy, all while polls show voters are losing confidence in the president’s ability to bring down prices. Neil Irwin, chief economic correspondent for Axios, explains what Trump’s murky tariff plans could mean for average Americans. And in headlines: Republicans sweat over a pair of special Congressional elections in Florida today, the Trump administration said it deported more alleged gang members to El Salvador, and Attorney General Pam Bondi told the Justice Department to drop a Biden-era lawsuit against a Georgia voting law.

  • Because look around, things are weird and confusing enough.

  • On today's show, Republicans sweat over a pair of special congressional elections in Florida,

  • and the Trump administration says it deported more alleged gang members to El Salvador.

  • But let's start by talking about tariffs, which is not a beautiful word.

  • You know what is a beautiful word?

  • Aurora.

  • Big fan of the word Aurora.

  • Anyway, tomorrow is according to the Trump administration Liberation Day,

  • in which President Donald Trump plans to announce tariffs on a host of other countries to make America rich or something.

  • Which countries?

  • Well, I don't know.

  • And neither does President Trump.

  • Here he is on Air Force One Sunday on the tariffs that you're planning.

  • So there are.

  • You're expecting to hit something like 10 to 15 countries, is that right?

  • No, all of the countries across the board.

  • Not 10.
