trump personally. from the dictator of qatar, which will ultimately be given to donald trump's presidential library, meaning for donald trump's personal use once he is no longer president. >> by the way, got a beautiful, big, magnificent free airplane for the united states air force. okay, very proud of that, too. they tried to say, oh, it's trump's airplane. oh, yeah, sure. it's too big. it's frankly, it's too big. much too big. when can. >> we expect that to be the air force one? >> well, it's here already. yeah. it's in the country. it's being refitted for military standard. how much will. >> it cost to. >> refit it? oh, i don't know. whatever. it is a hell of a lot less than building a new one. >> boeing is already nearing completion on two new air force one 747 ordered in donald trump's first term as president. ken vogel of the new york times is reporting that donald trump granted a pardon to a nursing home executive convicted of tax crimes after his mother attended $1 million dinner at mar a lago

in trump tariff refunds. and without donald trump's promise today to refund that money, it is very unlikely that the appeals court would have granted the trump side of the case a pause in being subject to the ruling made by the federal judges on the international court of trade court, who know more about international trade than any other judges in our federal system. the very first federal case in a federal court in the united states of america was an international trade case. litigation of international trade became increasingly more complex over the centuries, and in the 20th century, congress decided it was time to create a unique federal court with expertise and jurisdiction over international trade cases. in 1926, congress created the united states customs court. in 1980, with the jet engine having brought international trade to the threshold of true global trade, the congress clarified and enhanced the standing of the customs court and changed its name to the united states court of international trade.

and the trump golf carts were. donald trump appears to spend as much time as he does sitting in the oval office. those golf carts are some of the most international products in the world, cnbc reports. while both club car and e-z-go assembled their golf carts in the united states, they sourced their components from china, taiwan, india, malaysia, turkey and europe, among other countries. no matter how long donald trump clings to his tariff madness that is separating him from voters and making congressional republicans vulnerable in the next election. and no matter how long donald trump plays golf, he will never in his lifetime ride in a golf cart made with all american parts. that will not happen in donald trump's lifetime. the wall street journal editorial board was very disappointed that jeff bezos assured donald trump, in a panicked phone call made by donald trump, that amazon will never reveal to customers how much the trump tariffs are adding to the prices they will pay and already are paying on amazon, the wa

trump family. but one thing i want to make very clear, when you talk to the white house about this, they say separation of church and state. we you and i have talked about this before. they will not go there when it comes to anything that they say is not related to the policy or the white house, meaning that if you ask for comment or if you want to talk about don junior or eric's business endeavors, they say take it somewhere else. that has nothing to do with the white house. but obviously these things are all intertwined. >> yeah, obviously it has very much to do with it. as you just point out, just laying out the basic facts there. so clearly. thank you so much, kristen holmes. and now katie drummond is with us, global editorial director at wired. dan alexander, senior editor at forbes. and dan ives, veteran tech stocks analyst. and of course, one of the most recognizable traders on wall street. peter tuchman. so, dan alexander, let me start with you, because it's not just trump's sons at this co

online store they are already offering t-shirts and caps with the inscription trump-2028, that is, trumpesident, a politician, a businessman, a person around whom there is a huge number, huge tangles of interests, this is a person who really wants to receive the nobel prize, therefore a big the question is, where exactly, yes? how will he set priorities, yes, that is , for now he is going along such a broad front, he is trying to understand, yes, in which of these directions there will be the least resistance, perhaps, yes, at a slightly later stage he will decide to concentrate his efforts on maybe ukraine, in the middle east, perhaps in a completely new direction that is currently unknown to us, that is, for now, there is still a feeling that he is... going by touch, in a political sense, trump is a surfer, he is a person, who wants to catch the wave, stay on the wave, but hardly, looks at the problem deeply, in any case, if, if you watch, listen to his statements, he is a political layman, in almost everything, it seems to me, he has a weak understanding of what is happening in ukrain

trump: no. let's assume there's no threat. we have to assume that. reporter: how did you find the syrian president? pres. trump: great. great. i think very good. young, attractive guy. tough guy, you know. strong. reporter: does that worry you at all? pres. trump: he has a real shot at holding it toeing. i spoke with president erdogan who i'm very friendly with him. he feels he's got a shot. it's a torn-up country. reporter: do you think syria will join the abraham accords? pres. trump: yeah but i think they have forget themselves straightened out. i told him, i hope you're going to join. he said yes. but they have a lot of work to do. reporter: what about lebanon? do you think there's a path for lebanon to normalize relations with -- pres. trump: a friend of mine is the new ambassador to lebanon. and i didn't even know -- he was born in lebanon. and he said i'd like to be the ambassador. very successful guy. i said, you know, that's very dangerous. he said, i don't care. i love my country. it's

of donald trump, was back in front of the supreme court today for donald trump. and this time, donald trump had a very, very bad day with not a single member of the supreme court taking donald trump's side of the argument or trying to help donald trump's lawyer in any way. remember samuel alito, the author of the repeal of roe versus wade, which cited the legal opinions of british judges who presided over witch trials in that overturning roe versus wade opinion. remember the way samuel alito all but climbed down from the bench to argue the case in favor of criminal immunity for the criminal conduct of donald trump while he was president? samuel alito and the other republican judges on the supreme court tortured themselves to create out of nothing what they claim is a constitutional principle that had never been written down anywhere by anyone, that the president of the united states is immune from criminal investigation and criminal prosecution for anything he does in office. but today, that same samuel alito was tied with clarence thomas in having the least to s

the chinese government offered donald trump zero and donald trump took it. donald trump said, okay, zero is good enough for me to drop the tariffs. and so now the pointless and illegal trump tariffs on chinese products are down to 30% from the insane. 145%, 30% is still a crazy level. it's a big enough tariff to kill american businesses and to make toys too expensive for parents this christmas, and to kill jobs in this country. the yale budget lab says that the average cost of the tariffs per household are still going to be $2,800, the wall street journal editorial board writes tonight rarely has an economic policy been repudiated as soundly and as quickly as president trump's liberation day tariffs and by trump's own witness, the agreement monday morning to scale back his punitive tariffs on china, his second major retreat in less than a week. as with last week's modest british agreement, the china deal is more surrender than victory. so after weeks of market turmoil, the economy is left with higher trade costs and greater uncertainty for business. cnbc's b

so how far will trump go? any analyst who tries to predict trump is taking a very strong risk, and i'm not willing to be one. we will leave it there then. thank you very much for your time. the philippine president ferdinand marcos jr has called for the courtesy resignation of all cabinet investors in a bold venture to reset his administration. he said it was not about personalities but performance. it counts as a big setback was faced in the country's mid-term elections, securing only five of the 12 senate seats that were up for grabs. now some sports news for you. tottenham hotspur have beaten manchester united in an all england final to win the europa league - marking an end to spurs' 17-year wait for a trophy. brennan johnson scored the only goal of the game in bilbao, shortly before half time. the victory means spurs have qualified for next season's champions league. both teams are currently floundering at the bottom of the english premier league, with united down at 16th and spurs 17th. organisers of a n

you know, i think one thing that this gives trump who trump has a few core interests. he cares a lot about immigration. he cares a lot about trade. but there's a lot of things that he is less interested in either policy areas or the kind of execution of those things. and what this does is it provides him with a group of loyal workers who wanted to get going on day one. so there's a really mutual interest in it. it's interesting, though, because in a way, on the issues that trump is less interested in, you're saying in a way or suggesting that he might leave it to his aides to take the lead on some of these things. right. he may not i mean, you may not like i, but it's not going to be his, you know, top in his top three of issues to tackle. and so, you know, he just might leave it to the authors of project 2025 to go to town. he yeah he has a sort of notional interest in i, he he doesn't like it. he talked a lot about it on the campaign trail, but he's not going to be focused on exactly how to implement that. that's something he's happy to leave to his aides. can we tal

and on the difference between trump one and trump two, the other thing is that he had people in trump one that he was intellectually intimidated by. gary cohn at the national -- >> george: from goldman sachs. >> you had his secretary steven mnuchin he was intellectually intimidated by. so that when they pushed back, he really listened. the difference now is he thinks he knows the presidency better than anyone, which he didn't feel like in trump one. and, secondly, the people around him don't know how and don't have the capability to move him. and so howard lutnick doesn't want to move him -- >> george: commerce secretary. >> right. he doesn't want to move him. stephen miller doesn't want to move him away from what he's doing. and the treasury secretary is really the last guy with his finger kind of in the dike. and reince talked about the markets going up, that's because the treasury secretary keeps saying, there's going to be deals. there's going to be deals. don't worry about it. every time he says that, he has some credibility and the markets come back. >> george: chris mentioned s

now the trump doctrine. also, we are to believe there is a growing us is really rift if so, then why does the genocide continue to discuss these issues and more, i'm joined by my guess, george samuel in budapest. he's a pod cast where the goggle, which can be found on youtube and locals. and here in moscow we cross the marks level the. he's an international relations and security analyst, or gentleman cross lock rules and effect. that means you can jump anytime you want . and i always appreciate it. all right, let's start out with mark here. before we start, what could be called the trump doctrine. it's a lot of rhetoric and we don't, we don't have a lot of evidence of facts still. but to give us a summation of what happened in is symbol and what's next. okay, so i guess the most important story is russia's diplomatic victory. and this is actually the way it's being reported in new york times to russia has long insisted that they wanted negotiations with the key. every team on settling this conflict, diploma

most of the people standing behind donald trump didn't laugh. donald trump has said it before. donald trump has been attacked for saying it before. chuck schumer correctly was outraged by donald trump calling him a palestinian several weeks ago. it certainly wasn't the shock of the new that howard lutnick was spontaneously laughing at. howard lutnick is from long island. howard lutnick has no doubt, over the course of his life heard a lot of nasty jokes directed at jewish people that he doesn't like. it may be that howard lutnick thinks that any time a line includes the word palestinian, that that is somehow funny. i don't know. i don't know what he thinks, because it is inexplicable that a person would laugh at that statement. no one in that room today praised donald trump more than howard lutnick. why? why? that's what howard lutnick thinks he has to do. he thinks he's in a competition with everyone else in the cabinet in praising donald trump. and he is the most pathetic and buffoonish court jester in the history of the american presidential cabinet. howard lutnick will go a

trump today said it wasn't about race. pres. trump: i don't care who they are. i don't care about their race, their color. i don't care about their height, their weight. i don't care about anything. i just know that what's happening is terrible. lisa: all of those arriving today are white. south african officials have responded strongly, saying there is no legal or factual basis for classifying the group as refugees. but in the white house is a president who classifies global issues, from tariffs to drug prices to refugees, on his terms, and his alone. for the pbs newshour, i'm lisa desjardins. geoff: let's focus on this announcement. derek closely follows the chinese economy and u.s. china relations p he is a senior fellow at the american enterprise institute, a conservative think tank. thanks for being back with us. it was really striking to see the treasury secretary acknowledge that the tariffs, as he put it, resulted in an embargo on both side that effectively ended trade between the u.s. and china. how significant is this 90 day pause? what is the real wor

uh, trump's tariff threats. trump recognized tensions with eu tariff threats. us president donald trump threatened a 50% tariff on all goods sent to the united states from the european union. our special investigation reveals some cold heart facts. the eu is one of the united states of america's largest trading partners, spending more than 600 billion dollars in goods to the us last year and buying about $370 billion dollars worth. this is the in depth section of the program: the us won the terrif war against china, no, china won the terrif war. we are said to show you the facts and to let you make the decision, but if china has come out on top and facts are pointing in that... direction then the us president lost a big gamble which cost a t a minimum trillions of dollars and a stock values. in this case, based on a simple table, it looks like the us one and china lost. as a matter of fact, nothing changed in the tariff, when you compare before the tariff war started in fact china now has 10% tariff on... us. trump tariff's 2025 impact is across a multiple sect

um trump, president trump, on several occasions repeatedly said that while he's not taking off the military option off the table, which is a cliche that every president the honors that he does prefer negotiations that he does want a deal. and i think the sort of use this house on pointed out and also georgia, both the sony's and the moratti's not to mention the categories. i have been telling him, negotiations is the way to go. this is not 2017 certainly not 2018. when you president trump withdrew from the address you agree a way. and what mr. nathaniel could've given trump in the last 3 months, was a tony down of the belligerent appellate cose rhetoric on iraq instead. and i'm sure my 2 colleagues here have noticed this as, as well as i have in studies fires of the natural p trunk fires, the national security advisor mike walls. and 2 days later it transpires or, or is developed by the white house. that's a reason for the dismissal, was that he was running some kind of a surreptitious back channel with that time, you know, aiming to manipulate the president to drag america into a war when

uh, president trump knew the question is these trump said in the most explicit men in, in all of his public statements that you run will never have and you agree power. if he was a reach an agreement, that guarantees that you run well no to have. and you agree power any would be supervised by the united states and the international community in the united nation. then in agreement of this nature is definitely the preferable to a military confrontation. and this is something that these rarely government will have to absorb. what we're doing here and believe it is real, should act independently against the ron's nuclear program. if the u. s. pursues a new deal that is in your view in sufficient that i will repeat what i said. change over the last few years in the debate that was going on in the state of east red is urging cause a dramatic strategic damage to you run in many different ways. we don't have in a plastic the option of destroying the nuclear program. we'll see when that can be done by the united states in the united states will choose to do that. and that therefore, a, i thi

first hires, someone who would use the power trump had bestowed on him to gleefully go after trump's enemies and reward his friends. and trump clearly, really, really wanted ed martin in that top prosecutor job. and he seemed to really, really like having him there. and with martin's interim appointment coming to an end this month, all trump had to do to keep ed martin there permanently was to get the republican controlled united states senate to confirm him to that post. but today, trump was basically forced to pull ed martin's nomination. now, he did acknowledge, which is true, that he was pulling the nomination because martin didn't have enough support in the senate, which, again, is controlled by the president's own party. now, there's a lot of things to pull from and draw from as to what the final straw was here. i mean, it could have been the dozens and dozens of appearances on russian state television that ed martin failed to tell senators about, and also did. maybe it was the multiple podcast interviews and glowing praise that martin gave to a january 6th rioter, whom federal

the weak willed donald trump, the foolish donald trump and donald trump's predictable reversing of himself has now created a new phrase with the acronym taco, as in, trump always chickens out. and that's what the usually conservative british newspaper, the financial times now says about donald trump. trump always chickens out. the new york times reports that the phrase is now sweeping through wall street. trump always chickens out, quote, has been adopted by some to describe the pattern in which markets tumble after mr. trump makes tariff threats, only to rebound just as sharply when he relents and gives countries more time to negotiate deals. the market dropped on friday when mr. trump threatened to ratchet up tariffs to 50% on goods from the european union, a move that could have done severe economic damage to europe and the united states. but at the time, some analysts like salomon fiedler of berenberg, a german bank, said it wouldn't last. while threats by trump are not unusual, he wrote in a note that day. given the damage the us would do to itself with this tariff, he will probably n

of the 146 public remarks trump trump made in his first 100 days.s than 20% of the remarks he's made have been published. the white house hasn't actually published a trump transcript in over two months. so why is the most transparent administration in history trying to hide what the most transparent president in history, apparently, or the world says from from the public? why are they trying to hide it? well, maybe it's because he keeps saying things like this. >> the drone is killing tremendous numbers of people. you hide behind a tree and the drone comes down and it circles you with. with fire. you don't have a chance. a tree comes down also, by the way, it's so intense. i mean, you see these trees being knocked down like. like they're being sawed down by a top of the line timberman like like you know who, sean duffy. do you know that sean duffy, the head of the transportation department, who's working right now on the airports and getting assistance because biden didn't do a thing for four years and pete buttigieg was the head, and he goes bicycl

well as in trump can recognize it. i think it was significant that during the past week the americans, um, uh, floated this new proposal of reviving the nato russia council and a speedo 0 and i discuss, yeah, nature ross account. so of course, that's an episode of the what it was be is being in a band. and so it's kind of, it's poisonous, it's quite for some of those. however, the very fact that the trump, people are thinking in terms of creating some sort of a framework to discuss your opinion and rushed to the security issues back in the case that we've moved beyond the, the, the talking points that will go during the min scro says we're somehow sold to the russia and ukraine and, and so, and essentially ignoring what men's best of us is, they've been by talking about some kind of a european security for us as a revival of helsinki. ideally, that would indicate that the united states is thinking about how can we even have a permanent settlement in europe. so this kind of thing doesn't keep that happening and that me

supporters like trump.i certainly have. and this monday, he's coming out with a new special focused specifically on young, primarily male maga republicans, asking them why are they are so drawn to the maga movement? here's just a taste of the kind of responses klepper got. >> i think we've had a lot of beta males representing our country. >> for a while. >> the republican party led. >> by trump. has really. >> like said, enough's enough. they don't want no whiny baby. >> does he, like, put on their makeup and dance to the ymca and about not winning emmys? >> yeah, yeah. >> no that's trump. trump does that, but. >> i wasn't paying attention. >> i mean, there's a whole lot to unpack there, a whole lot more in a special. and the daily show's jordan klepper joins me next. >> you're seeing skechers famous footwear everywhere. and now that famous design is available in hands free. skechers slip ins get the comfort and. >> style glide. >> step now with the convenience >> step now with the convenience of. slip ins,

>> so what we historically. >> thought was from. >> trump, 1.0 was that in trump's first administration, when he crashed the markets, which he. >> did. >> there was a pushback. and he was like, i don't want to lose my friend's money, right. he had this immediate sort of reaction this time. he has not had the same kind of reaction. >> but with. >> the bond markets, when he saw the bond markets were really freaking out, when he saw that he was enacting what's something that could end up being a dollar flight, which would make all of our debt more expensive and would change, really, the way we live in many meaningful ways. i think when he saw that, he understood it and that was a guardrail. so i would say there are maybe three, right? the judiciary, the bond market and what is left of the free press. >> so money talks seems to be a theme here. molly, let's pivot to the story about harvard. i want to run some tape from a debate that broke out last night on. so actually today on cnbc. so take a listen. >> because maybe. >> they can put. >> enough leverage to. >> to get him to so many. >> oth

donald trump says he would be stupid not to accept it. most of his allies at home think he would be stupid to even consider it, and who knows, maybe tonight at the state dinner, there will be some mention of the ongoing bloodshed in gaza. publicly, it's not been part of the discussions this week, but catter has played a sizable role in the seasfire negotiations. we'll talk later in the program about the escalating violence, but let's first speak to professor sultan barakat at the college of public policy, the hammad bin khalifa university. thank you very much for being with us, that's... begin if we can with this meeting today between president trump and um ahmed al shade, what political difficulties do you think it might create for alshada at home if has to make peace with israel, well, i don't think he can even start discussing the subject of making peace with israel or normalizing relationship with israel under the current circumstance, as you know, israel occupies the julan heights, and since he's taking power, they have expanded the

he's clearly trying to attack trump every which way trying to take away trump's push for blue-collarooming manufacturing, he sounded like joe biden and barack obama. third-generation uaw ford autoworker james benson, junior, matt, what you make of immigrants belittling trump push for manufacturing? he doesn't want to live in america that makes t-shirts and agrees with trump to do more manufacturing on planes, drilling oil and then he says he doesn't care where auto parts are made. >> i think he is disconnected to the reality of what americans really want and need. you can't depend on everybody to make everything for us. that's like saying never buy groceries for your house because somebody else takes you dinner everyday. what happens when they don't show up to work? you are hungry. >> there's also this, let's get your reaction to democrat tim walz saying he in blue-collar workers saying he can quote code talk to white guys. >> i could code talk to white guys watching football fixing the truck doing that than i could put them at ease. i was the permission structure to say you can do t

the president, trump, president trump, is also the head of the republican party. he controls the fundraising operator. so the republican party, if any member of congress crosses donald trump, he can say to us that they get challenged in a primary and they lose re election. and so they are scared of him. when we say is, congress is not upholding, gets responsibility under the constitution to oversee the operations of the executive branch to hold the president accountable. the checks and balances kinda play to buy our founders are failing. well, if congress then does not approve the gift of this airplane, which i'm assuming that is going to be no action from congress as it looks right now. and if president trump years is to play and if he takes access of it, what legal re course, if any, will exist that as well. this will be up to congress for the next few years. if after donald trump's term is over, he seeks to turn the plane over to his presidential library. is success surprised that it might very well seek to repossess the plane? is the property of the united sta

it's difficult to say trump is a barometer of trump. that's all we can say here, but i think she does have the finger on the pulse of the base. and for someone that was derided so much in the beginning of her political career, she's got some stature right now. and donald trump cannot ignore her. well, and i think that not only is she a really accurate barometer for the base, but the base itself is very vocal. i mean, you can get on social media and i will say to one thing, i know i'm not mad guy. i'm not a trump supporter. but the one thing i will say about his base and about his supporters is that they're not afraid to criticize him. which is kind of refreshing, given that liberals refused to criticize democratic presidents. so they are not afraid to criticize them. they're not afraid to call him out when he's going against the grain when he's going against what his base wants. so i think that that's really good. i think marjorie taylor green is a very loud in boca voice for, you know, there's just kind of in breathing life into that t

trump isn't done there. today, he was asked about pardoning the right wing extremists convicted again before a jury of a plot to kidnap michigan's democratic governor, gretchen whitmer, back in 2020. >> i'm going to look at it. i will take a look at it. it's been brought to my attention. i did watch the trial. it looked to me like somewhat of a railroad job, i'll be honest with you. it looked to me like some people said some stupid things, you know, they were drinking and i think they said stupid things. but i'll take a look at that. and a lot of people are asking me that question from both sides. actually. >> from both sides thinking. do you think he watched the trial, sitting there day after day watching the trial? was that trial televised? oh, the power of presidential pardons and clemency is a really important one. it's essential in the constitution. it can be a very good thing. and i want to be super clear here. okay. in most all presidencies of my lifetime, that power has been woefully underused by pre

elizabeth: more whiplash action with judges battling trump, the trump tariffs. what happens next after a federal appeals court reinstated those tariffs for now after a court blocked them? will this end up in the supreme court maybe tomorrow? what will trump do next to fix what economists agree is america's unfair treatment overseas? radio host larry elder in moments on that. also this for you -- >> [bleep] [cheers and applause] >> elon musk and his hackers don't know [bleep] >> to think that that elon musk or donald trump give a [bleep] -- >> bad guys, the dangerous ones, are trump, musk -- >> trump and musk who are stealing from our schools. >> donald trump and elon musk to continue their extreme project 2025 agenda. elizabeth: that was democrats, the liberal media melting down over elon musk and doge stopping government waste of your money. elon musk's tenure at doge is ending, but doge is just beginning and, yes, it was a success. we'll show you why. congressman greg steube from ways and means on that. and also musk did all that while tesla was getting fire b

it is a cryptocurrency known as $trump. it is what is known as a meme coin, a type of cryptocurrency inspired by internet memes or viral online trends. it launched shortly before his inauguration in january. and the top 220 purchasers of the coin received invitations to the black-tie optional event held at a golf course outside washington, dc. and they were met with a crowd of protesters, who denounced the event. democrats say it's "fundamentally corrupt". here's massachusetts senator elizabeth warren speaking on thursday. donald trump's dinner is an orgy of corruption. that's what this is all about. we are here today to talk about exactly one topic - corruption, corruption in its ugliest form. donald trump is using the presidency of the united states to make himself richer through crypto, and he's doing it right out there in plain sight. ok, back to rodney and joi, and, rodney, i want to come to you first. several of the dinner guests look to the new york times and they said they attended the event with exquisite intent of

president trump: we had some very good news.es announced to us that they don't want to fight anymore and we will honor that and we will stop the bomb, and they have capitulated but more importantly, we will take their word. they say they won't be blowing up ships anymore and that was the purpose of what we were doing. that's just news, we just found out about that. i think that's very positive. not going to have a lot of beautiful ships sailing down the virus seas. it wasn't just the canals. it was various other places and i am going to accept their word and we'll stop the bombings of the houthis. >> the houthis have been attacking hypothetic in and around the red sea, acting in support of the palestinian in gaza, they say. the united states began attacks and january of last year under president joe biden. those were expanded this year after donald trump took office. this comes on the day that israel confirms it struck the airport in yemen's capital. ex tend of the damage is not yet fully known but eyewitnesses said there have b

donald trump gave them that opportunity. i asked sachin gogoi from bbc monitoring in delhi for his views. there is news that, essentially, the american administration received alarming intel about a potential escalation in the conflict that was going on since 7th may, and it was then that the american administration decided to intervene. it does look to me a little bit, though, as though both sides were quite relieved to have donald trump marching in and saying, "look, you've got to stop this." looks like, especially on the pakistan side. they have been saying that they would not want to continue the war, but at the same time they would respond resolutely to the military initiative that the indian side took. the indian side said that, you know, they were not looking at a war with pakistan. they were not really looking to target the military areas, or they were not looking to target the civilian areas. it's only militant camps that they were targeting. now, at the same time, we will have to also look at the role of the us. th
