Economics Professor Utterly Shreds Trump’s Trade Chaos In 5 Seconds Flat
LOADING ERROR LOADINGJustin Wolfers, a University of Michigan economics professor, offered a short but biting summary of President Donald Trump’s unpredictable trade policies on Wednesday, warning they could help trigger a recession. “You and me, our family budgets and how we make plans depends entirely on what happens in the White House, and it’s even harder than that because they haven’t announced a single clear coherent policy,” Wolfers pointed out to MSNBC’s Nicolle Wallace. AdvertisementHe then summarized the chaos in just five seconds:“We have tariffs, then we don’t. Then we’re going to make deals. “The pain that this set of tariffs is going to cause is going to be roughly 50 times larger than the tariffs that Trump imposed in his first term,” Wolfers warned.

3 Former Memphis Police Officers Acquitted In Fatal Beating Of Tyre Nichols
At trial, defense attorneys emphasized that Martin kicked and punched Nichols several times in the head. In addition to beating Nichols, prosecutors also said the officers failed to intervene and failed to tell medical personnel that Nichols had been hit repeatedly in the head. Under cross-examination, he indicated he would not have struck Nichols if Nichols had put his hands behind his back. Defense lawyers have argued that the fatal beating would not have taken place if Nichols had just allowed himself to be handcuffed. The five officers, the city of Memphis and the police chief are being sued by Nichols’ family for $550 million.

Lawrence O'Donnell Shows Moment Trump Was 'Humiliated' On TV
LOADING ERROR LOADING“The Canadian prime minister both humbled and humiliated Donald Trump at the same time without Donald Trump having the slightest idea it was happening,” he said on Tuesday night. AdvertisementO’Donnell said there’s been a “steady stream of that sort of humiliation,” starting with French President Emmanuel Macron’s visit in February and when British Prime Minister Keir Starmer stopped by days later. Later in the segment, O’Donnell slammed Trump’s “utterly demented attempt” to turn Canada into a state. Carney, he noted, responded by saying “absolutely no to Donald Trump to his face.”But Trump, he said, barely noticed. “Donald Trump had no fight in him today when the very polite Canadian beside him talked rings around Donald Trump like a ring master in a circus with a trained animal, threw in some magic words that sounded flattering enough to Donald Trump so that Donald Trump actually ― and you’ll see this ― ends up nodding and agreeing with the man who is humiliating him and defeating him right there in the room on TV,” O’Donnell said.
