President Trump's tariff strategy continues to make waves across the globe, especially in Washington. While he recently paused tariffs for Canada and Mexico, he has imposed them on China and continues threatening other countries. Trump's tough tactics have sparked concerns about a larger trade war, which economists say would further increase the prices of essential items like food. Former US Ambassador to the United Nations Agencies for Food and Agriculture, Kip Tom, joined host Dave Anthony this week to discuss Trump's tariffs and how they will impact farmers like him and grocery bills. While Torn acknowledged that the cost of produce and other foods would go up temporarily if tariffs were imposed on Mexico, Canada, and other nations, he also said the American agriculture community and the economy would benefit long-term if Trump's tariff strategy worked. Torn discusses how America is already too reliant on other countries for its food supply and vital products for its production and why this can be a serious national security problem. He also thinks Trump's strategy could bring more manufacturing back home and ensure that America grows the food it needs. Today on Fox News Rundown Extra, we will share our entire interview with former Ambassador Kip Torn. This will allow you to hear more about Trump's tariff strategy, how it can impact food prices, and why he says more focus should be on strengthening America's food supply.

President Donald Trump imposed ten percent tariffs on Chinese imports earlier this week, just a day after the tariffs on Canada and Mexico were put on a 30-day pause. The White House says the tariffs are punishing China for allowing fentanyl into the United States. Former US Ambassador to the United Nations Agencies for Food and Agriculture, Kip Tom, joins to share why farmers like him will benefit from the tariffs and what it will mean for the economy. Fentanyl is now considered the deadliest drug in American history, and President Trump's administration has levied tariffs on China in an effort to end ‘the mass invasion of fentanyl in our country.' Calling it a “national emergency,” the Trump administration says Chinese manufacturers are knowingly selling chemicals to further fentanyl production at our borders. New York City Special Narcotics prosecutor Bridget Brennan explains how chemical sales from China circumvent the legal system and worsen the fentanyl crisis.

Could the last six months be the most pivotal months of the entire Russia-Ukraine war? Over two years into the conflict, Russia is closer to victory in Ukraine than ever before, according to former US Ambassador to NATO Ivo Daalder. He joins Ian Bremmer on the GZERO World Podcast from Tallinn, Estonia, mere miles from the Russian border. How much is this battlefield mismatch due to a delay in US support? A big part of it, says Daalder. “Congress refusing to act on the requests that the president first made back in July…and nothing happening until mid-April” was a major blow to Ukraine's defenses, Daalder says. “And now it just takes time to get stuff to the Front and get it across the border and to the units in the quantities to make it happen.” Host: Ian BremmerGuest: Ivo Daalder Subscribe to the GZERO World with Ian Bremmer Podcast on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or your preferred podcast platform, to receive new episodes as soon as they're published.
