Podcast appearances and mentions of Rudy Giuliani

President Trump put his signature on a bill that will fund the government through the end of January. The bill brought an end to a 43-day shutdown of the federal government. A group of eight Democratic senators negotiated with Senate Majority leader John Thune to get concessions for furloughed and laid off government workers, and the funding of several federal agencies. The deal did not include the extensions for healthcare subsidies that had become a key messaging point for Democrats throughout the shutdown. Will working out a deal without a big win hurt the political leverage the party seemed to be building? What will it mean for the position of Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer?Next, Congress turns back to the Epstein files, with new emails emerging that appeared damning for President Trump. The president signed off on several pardons this week. Among those receiving the pardons were Rudy Giuliani, Mark Meadows and other members of the president's inner circle who faced scrutiny for their roles in undermining the 2020 election. None of the 70 individuals pardoned were facing federal charges. So what was the point? Does the pardon process need a facelift? The Supreme Court rejected the appeal of a Kentucky county clerk who wanted them to reconsider the landmark same-sex marriage case Obergefell v. Hodges. Concerns on the left about the case's standing were high after the court overturned Roe v. Wade in 2022. KCRW discusses why Obergefell may not be overturned anytime soon, and answers a question from a listener looking for insight from last week's election margins.

John Darkow - PoliticalCartoons.com On this week's show... The federal government shutdown is over for now, but the debate on healthcare rages on. Michigan Democrats, led by Senators Peters and Slotkin, have harsh words for the 7 Democrats who voted with Republicans to end the 41-day shutdown without any guaranteed continuation of healthcare insurance subsidies. The Republican bill includes a potential onetime $500,000 or more bonus for 8 Senators investigated as part of the January 6 insurrection (Lindsey Graham says he'll sue for millions!) The White House calls the newly released Epstein emails part of a Democratic Party hoax – that there's nothing there – but Trump is doing all he can to keep the files secret, and redirect the story to investigations of retirees like Bill Clinton and Larry Summers. The U.S. House will vote on a full release of all the files in early December. Donald Trump basically admits widespread law-breaking by his reelection team, issuing federal pardons to 71 of his minions – even though they haven't been federally charged. And the pardons don't save folks like Giuliani and Meadows from possible state criminal charges. The looming increases in health insurance premiums has convinced four companies to pull out of the Michigan market.  Former Congressman Mike Rogers thought he had a free ride to the GOP nomination for U.S. Senator, but there's a new candidate who could make the next 9 months a lot more difficult for him. Former Michigan Republican Party co-chair Bernadette Smith starts with more than a little support from the party's MAGA base.  Rogers is now saying the 2024 election was stolen from him but providing no proof.  And there's the story of two presidential grandkids extending family traditions: JFK's grandson, Jack Schlossberg, extends the family tradition by running for Congress in New York … in a district that includes Trump Tower. Donald Trump's granddaughter, Kai, is extending a different family tradition: she's playing golf, making her LPGA debut as an invited golfer in the LPGA Annika Tournament. Sadly, after the 2nd round she was dead last (18 over par) and missed the cut

This week, Scott sat down with his Lawfare colleagues Natalie Orpett, Eric Columbus, and Molly Roberts, to talk through the week's big national security news stories, including:“I Don't Think You're Ready for the Shutdown.” The record-setting shutdown of the U.S. government is set to come to an end after eight Democratic senators agreed to a continuing resolution that will fund all of the government through January 30, certain chunks of the government all the way through the end of the fiscal year, and made a number of concessions along the way. What should we make of this deal, and what are the political ramifications—particularly for Democrats, many of whom are quite angry at those who ultimately voted for this plan?“Overt Acts.” Last week, in a move quite publicly celebrated by his controversial clemency czar Ed Martin, President Trump issued pardons for dozens of individuals accused of participating in efforts to manipulate the results of the 2020 election in his favor, including his former attorney Rudy Giuliani and other alleged “unindicted co-conspirators” in his own, since-abandoned federal criminal prosecution. Indeed, Trump himself was the only one who was federally indicted for 2020 election manipulations, making the most immediate legal effect of these pardons unclear. What is Trump trying to accomplish in issuing them? And what could the ramifications be for future elections?“Law & Order: Special Victims Unit.” Even as his prosecutions against James Comey and Letitia James have faced headwinds, the Trump administration appears to be moving full speed ahead with criminal investigations against other of his perceived enemies—including a large-scale investigation into government reports alleging Russian support for Trump in 2016 that was recently transferred from Justice Department officials in Eastern Pennsylvania to the more Trump-friendly terrain of Southern Florida. What is the current state of the revenge campaign the Trump administration has been pursuing, and where does it seem set to lead?In object lessons, Natalie is appreciating both “The History of the New Yorkers Vaunted Fact Checking Department” and the small army of neurotic geniuses who march forward in pursuit of journalistic integrity. Eric is appreciating The Week Junior, his daughter's favorite magazine that proves real journalism isn't just for grown-ups. Scott is appreciating The Far Side's online presence, updated daily—a reminder that the line between journalism and cartooning is always thinner than we'd like to admit. And Molly is appreciating an “illuminating” visit to Glenstone, where Jenny Holzer's art reads like journalism etched in light, documenting the lingering shadows of some dark subjects.To receive ad-free podcasts, become a Lawfare Material Supporter at www.patreon.com/lawfare.

“Leave aside the cruelty of not giving these funds out,” Andrew says, reflecting on the SNAP benefits case now before the Supreme Court. “What does it say that we're not prioritizing hunger as an issue?” Then, Mary brings listeners up to speed on the dizzying chain of events since Friday and where the SNAP case stands, even as the Senate and House appear to be moving towards reopening the government. And in honoring Veterans Day, Mary and Andrew dig into several issues affecting service members, including the latest filing in Trump v Illinois, and how to think about the term "regular forces", plus Judge Immergut's final order prohibiting the National Guard deployment in Portland. And finally, Just Security's co-editor in chief, Tess Bridgeman, joins to analyze what the law says— and doesn't say-- about blowing up boats in international waters without a clear justification or congressional authorization.Further reading: Judge Wolf's piece in The Atlantic: Why I Am Resigning.

After pardoning the 1500 people who committed crimes at the US Capitol on January 6, 2021, Trump has now pardoned 77 others - including lawyers like Rudy Giuliani, Sidney Powell, John Eastman, Kenneth Chesebro and others who tried to help Trump retain the presidency despite losing the 2020 election to Joe Biden. What message is Trump sending to those he pardoned? Might he be using it as a recruiting tool for what he'd like to see happen in upcoming elections?

On Monday, U.S. Pardon Attorney Ed Martin announced that President Donald Trump had pardoned several top aides and advisers from his first administration, as well as dozens of people involved in his efforts to challenge the results of the 2020 election. Those receiving pardons include President Trump's former Chief of Staff Mark Meadows, adviser Boris Epshteyn, and attorneys Rudy Giuliani, John Eastman, Kenneth Chesebro, and Sidney Powell. None of the recipients has been charged with a federal crime, but the pardon will protect them from future prosecution related to the 2020 election (though they can still be prosecuted at the state level).

Late Sunday, while most eyes were on the Senate's shutdown negotiations, the Trump administration was busy rewriting the history of the 2020 election.Just before midnight, a Justice Department lawyer posted a list on X of dozens of the president's top allies and former aides who'd received pardons related to their efforts to overturn that election.Among them are Trump's former lawyer, Rudy Giuliani; Trump's former chief of staff, Mark Meadows; and Sidney Powell, a former federal prosecutor who tried to overturn election results in key swing states and spread false claims of widespread voting machine fraud.What do these pardons do? And how is the president using the Justice Department to shield those closest to him from future legal consequences?Find more of our programs online.

Donald Trump just issued 77 pardons, including for six individuals who were unindicted co-conspirators in Trump's federal criminal indictment for his efforts to steal the 2020 presidential election. Trump has now pardoned Rudy Giuliani, John Eastman, Sidney Powell, Jeffrey Clark, Kenneth Chesebro, Boris Epstein, Jenna Ellis, Mark Meadows and many others. This feels like a recruiting effort by Trump. He seems to be calling all insurrectionists to join him in future efforts to interfere in America's elections, sending the signal that he will pardon them if they join his criminal conspiracy.

In Episode 5 of Mafia States of America, the bosses dissect the fall. From the RICO Act to Joe Banano's book that gave prosecutors their blueprint, Patrick Bet-David unpacks how Giuliani weaponized the law and crushed Cosa Nostra. Sammy and Michael face the truth of how greed, pride, and arrogance ended the life they once ruled.----

Today's Headlines: The government shutdown drags on, and Trump's threatening to dock pay for absent air traffic controllers while offering $10K bonuses to the ones still working. Meanwhile, over 3,000 flights were delayed, and courts once again ruled that the administration has to pay full SNAP benefits (even after Trump told states to undo them). In his downtime, Trump pardoned Rudy Giuliani and 76 other allies tied to the 2020 election plot, and a whistleblower claims Ghislaine Maxwell is getting “concierge treatment” in prison while seeking a commutation. Elsewhere, Trump met with Syria's new president—once labeled a terrorist—and lifted sanctions, all while his defense secretary bragged about more U.S. strikes. The Supreme Court shut down Kim Davis's attempt to overturn marriage equality, a judge blocked Trump's National Guard deployments to Portland protests, and a grand jury subpoenaed former intel officials from the Mueller era. Trump also ordered the DOJ to investigate meatpacking monopolies as beef prices spike 13%, Italy's pasta exporters are ditching the U.S. over 107% tariffs (justice for spaghetti), and TikTok Shop just hit $19 billion in sales—matching eBay.

Today on Joe Oltmann Untamed, we expose the deep rot within America's institutions, from the ongoing government shutdown and the betrayal of the American people to the weaponization of foreign aid programs against U.S. sovereignty. President Trump's recent pardons of Republican operatives—including Rudy Giuliani, Sidney Powell, Mark Meadows, and others—highlight a justice system at odds with fairness and truth, while the saga of Tina Peters and the JAN 6 pipe bomber underscores the corruption and selective enforcement plaguing the DOJ and FBI. With Senate action bringing the 40-day government shutdown closer to resolution, the nation watches as political maneuvering continues to override accountability.Dr. William J. Federer joins to reveal how socialist ideologies have infiltrated U.S. institutions over the past century, from universities to media to government, exploiting cultural and moral decay to consolidate power. He connects America's shift from religious tolerance to hostility against foundational Christian values with the rise of state-controlled narratives, the dismantling of the nuclear family, and the broader attacks on free speech. Through historical insight and biblical principles, Federer outlines the urgent battles Americans face in education, elections, and economics, offering a roadmap to reclaim liberty and restore the moral fabric of the Republic.The program also examines societal decay in real time, from the Olympics banning transgender athletes from female events to liberal policies enabling crime and fraud, all while special-interest groups exploit crises like COVID and immigration for personal gain. The show culminates in a hard-hitting exposé of domestic “color revolution” tactics, targeting the downfall of America. Viewers are called to action: demand justice, prosecute those plotting sedition, and hold every enabler accountable. Joe Oltmann Untamed  is your front-row seat to the fight for America—and the roadmap for how citizens can take a stand before it's too late.

Politician & Son of Former Mayor Rudy Giuliani, Andrew Giuliani, calls into the show this morning to talk about positive news regarding his father Rudy Giuliani, gratitude for military veterans, and the enduring legacy of 9/11. Andrew reflects on his father's contributions and the challenges Rudy faced, highlighting the vindication felt after a presidential pardon. The conversation also covers upcoming political races, specifically a contentious Republican primary, and speculates on President Trump's potential influence. Giuliani sheds light on the importance of open and dynamic primaries and reflects on his own campaign experiences. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

In part one of Red Eye Radio with Gary McNamara and Eric Harley, the Senate took a massive step forward on its way to reopening the government on Sunday with a group of Senate Democrats caving and joining Republicans in their bid to pass a revamped plan to end the shutdown. Signs that the shutdown, which entered its 40th day, could be ending became more and more clear as the day went on particularly with the unveiling of a bipartisan package of spending bills that lawmakers hope to attach to a modified bill to reopen the government. Also SNAP benefits remain un-affected thanks to the President's contingency fund, where we stand with a broken Obamacare and President Trump pardons Rudy Giuliani and other key figures allegedly involved in efforts to overturn the 2020 election. Also Chuck Schumer loses credibility with his own party and audio from Democratic senators on why they decided to vote to re-open the Government.

 Five more democrat senators (none of whom are in immediate danger of being primaried) cross party lines and approve the republican continuing resolution to reopen the government, infuriating the "Trump is a Fascist" wing of their party. Some progressives call for a Tea Party-style break from old guard democrats as former republican-turned-democrat Joe Walsh reveals to anyone not paying attention: We play political games with your lives for our own survival. Trump pardons Rudy Guiliani, Christina Bobb and 75 others caught up in the democrats' "alternate electors" scam.  

John Catsimatidis, Red Apple Media Owner & Operator, calls into the program for his weekly Monday morning hit to discuss his relief over President Trump's recent pardons of Rudy Giuliani and others. The conversation then shifts to Curtis Sliwa, critiques of media coverage, and the results of political campaigns, specifically regarding the government shutdown's impact on elections in New Jersey and Virginia. Catsimatidis also touches on a controversial decision by the CFIA to cull ostriches in Canada, advocating for an investigation. He emphasizes his support for certain political figures and his ongoing dedication to the WABC audience. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

We start the show by getting your reactions to the Senate Democrats who agreed to help Republicans re-open the government. President Trump just gave a pardon to former Mr. Four Seasons Landscaping himself, Rudy Giuliani – along with dozens others – for charges related to trying to overthrow the free and fair 2020 election. We discuss that and more with Brian McGrory, former editor of the Boston Globe and current head of Journalism at Boston University. As the senate makes progress on ending the shutdown, it's still not totally clear when SNAP recipients can expect the return of food assistance. Food policy analyst Corby Kummer explains. Boston Medical Center's Dr. Katherine Gergen Barnett joins with Tamika Jackson, CEO of The Beautiful Way Foundation, to talk racial equity in clinical trials. Ken Oringer is a James Beard-winning chef behind restaurants like Torro and Uni. He's launched a brand-new pasta venture centered around good food and helping employ people with autism, called Chitarra Pastaria. He joins along with team members Miles Mazzotta and Julia Agostino. Then we open the phone lines to talk about decluttering techniques. 

Accused of trying to overturn the U.S. Presidential election in 2020? No worries. Trump is issuing pardons across the board for more than 75 co-defendants charged in connection with an election scheme in Georgia, including Rudy Giuliani, Sidney Powell, Boris Epshteyn, John Eastman and Mark Meadows. Cheating Americans out of having a voice appears to be totally forgivable. The Senate is taking action to move a deal forward that would end the longest US government shutdown in history. A small group of Senators from both parties involved in the talks managed to hammer out a compromise bill that rescinds the layoffs of some federal employees, but notably leaves out healthcare subsidies that were the point of the shutdown in the first place. Several House Democrats have already announced their opposition. Mo 'Kelly returns to sit in for Mark. He'll speak with iHeart TV & radio analyst Gary Dietrich about the particulars of this new Senate deal to end the shutdown and more.The Mark Thompson Show 11/10/25Patreon subscribers are the backbone of the show!

Acting! The Kagro in the Morning Players, Messrs. David Waldman and Greg Dworkin, debut the first of their one-act plays: "It's Not So Bad, When You Look at It". Did Dems underreach? Will Gops overreach? Well, that is what they do. Today is for replays and takeaways. It's not over yet, and there's plenty more to come. Now, will Donald K. Trump's next move be cruel, or stupid? Of course, it will be both. Trump can't bribe himself into popularity… not in this economy. ICE'S not yet being welcomed as liberators. Russia hunts civilians with drones, while Pete Hegseth says, "Hold my beer." Trump is being forced to share his food with others, and you can imagine how that makes him feel. The goal is to herd most Americans into ghettos, and the rest into fortresses, perhaps not the future most desire. Kash Patel keeps leaving spies out in the cold. Who needs intelligence when you have loyalty?

An end to the 40-day government shutdown is now in sight after 8 Democratic Senators joined Republicans to advance a bill to reopen the government through January 30. Part of the deal will require Republican leadership to hold a December vote on extending Obamacare subsidies.

House lawmakers will return to Washington this week, with the measure expected to easily pass the lower chamber.President Donald Trump has pardoned more than 70 prominent figures involved in challenging the outcome of the 2020 presidential election, including Rudy Giuliani, Sidney Powell, John Eastman, and Mark Meadows.

This Day in Legal History: Social Security AmendmentsOn November 10, 1983, President Ronald Reagan signed into law the Social Security Amendments of 1983, a landmark piece of legislation aimed at addressing a looming fiscal crisis in the Social Security system. At the time, the program was projected to run out of funds within months, threatening benefits for millions of retirees. The bipartisan effort, led by a commission chaired by Alan Greenspan, produced a package of reforms that fundamentally altered the structure of Social Security and continue to shape its operation today. One of the most significant changes was the gradual increase in the full retirement age from 65 to 67, a shift that reflected growing life expectancies and was designed to reduce long-term benefit payouts.Another major provision subjected Social Security benefits to federal income tax for higher-income recipients, marking a departure from the program's previously tax-exempt status. These changes helped restore solvency to the system and underscored the evolving view of Social Security not merely as a safety net, but as part of a broader fiscal policy framework. The amendments also mandated that federal employees begin paying into Social Security and included temporary payroll tax increases.The 1983 reforms were notable for their rare bipartisan consensus, forged between a Republican president and a Democrat-controlled House. The political compromise demonstrated that major structural entitlement reform was possible when both parties shared a sense of urgency and responsibility. The law's legacy is complex—it shored up the system for decades but left future generations facing similar solvency questions. Legal scholars and policymakers still reference the 1983 amendments as a model of negotiated reform, even as the political climate has become more polarized. The taxation of benefits and the higher retirement age remain central to debates about equity and sustainability within the program.The Social Security Amendments of 1983 exemplify how statutory changes can recalibrate entitlement programs to respond to demographic and economic pressures, while raising ongoing questions about intergenerational fairness and fiscal responsibility.A federal appeals court has upheld a lower court's order requiring the Trump administration to fully fund Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) benefits for November, despite the ongoing government shutdown. The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) had planned to rely solely on $4.65 billion in contingency funds, which would have resulted in reduced aid, but the court found this inadequate. The Rhode Island judge had ordered the USDA to tap into a separate $23.35 billion fund intended for child nutrition programs to cover the $4 billion shortfall and avoid widespread harm to the 42 million Americans who rely on SNAP.While the 1st Circuit declined to stay the lower court's ruling, Supreme Court Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson temporarily paused the order, creating ongoing uncertainty about benefit distribution. The USDA has since directed states to reverse any moves to issue full benefits made before the pause, warning of potential financial penalties. The administration argued that it couldn't be forced to reallocate funds during a shutdown, blaming Congress for the funding crisis. However, the appeals court emphasized the urgent need to prevent food insecurity during the winter. The case arose from a lawsuit brought by cities, nonprofits, a union, and a food retailer seeking full benefit payments.Trump administration cannot withhold full funding for food aid, US appeals court rules | ReutersLarge and midsized U.S. law firms experienced a strong increase in client demand during the third quarter of 2025, according to the Thomson Reuters Institute. Demand rose 3.9% year-over-year—marking one of the largest quarterly gains in two decades and the highest outside the 2021 post-pandemic rebound. Transactional practices drove much of this growth, particularly among midsized firms, with M&A work rising 6.7%, corporate work up 4.4%, and real estate and tax also showing solid gains.Litigation demand increased 4.9%, while labor and employment rose 4%. Bankruptcy, however, dipped slightly by 0.4%. Demand for countercyclical practices—those that tend to rise in downturns—was more modest, with larger firms seeing smaller gains compared to firms ranked 101–200. Midsized firms also saw a 3.9% rise in these areas. Analysts attribute part of the shift to corporate clients seeking cost control by reallocating work to more affordable firms.Billing rates were also up 7.4%, contributing to greater profitability despite a 7.5% increase in overhead expenses driven by tech investments. While current trends point to a strong 2025, the report warned of continued global economic and geopolitical instability that could reverse gains quickly.US law firms saw demand surge in third quarter - report | ReutersDemocrats ended a record-long government shutdown without securing their primary goal: the extension of health insurance tax credits under the Affordable Care Act. Despite initial unity, eight Senate Democrats broke ranks and voted with Republicans to advance a bill reopening the government on its 40th day, omitting the sought-after healthcare provisions. In return, they received only a vague promise of a future vote on the subsidies, a concession many in the party, including Senators Elizabeth Warren and leaders in the House, criticized as a strategic failure.The decision has sparked internal party conflict, especially after Democrats had recently seen electoral gains tied to their affordability messaging. Some Democrats believed holding out longer might have forced Republican concessions, but others, like Senator Jeanne Shaheen, argued prolonging the shutdown would only harm the public. The failed push is reminiscent of past shutdowns, including Trump's 2018-19 border wall standoff, where policy goals were ultimately abandoned after prolonged disruption.Air travel chaos and delayed food aid added pressure to end the shutdown, with more than 10,000 flights affected and warnings of a near-complete travel halt ahead of Thanksgiving. While public opinion largely blamed Republicans for the impasse, Democrats now hope to leverage the upcoming healthcare vote in their favor ahead of the 2026 midterms. The fate of the tax credits—and potentially rising premiums for 24 million Americans—will likely become a defining campaign issue. The shutdown technically continues as the Senate and House still need to finalize and pass the bill before President Trump can sign it.Democrats Concede Shutdown Fight Without Health Care Win in HandPresident Donald Trump has issued pardons to at least 77 individuals connected to efforts to overturn the 2020 election, including Rudy Giuliani, Mark Meadows, Sidney Powell, Jeffrey Clark, and other close allies. The pardons, outlined in a proclamation dated Friday, were framed by Trump as an attempt to end a “grave national injustice” and promote “national reconciliation.” These actions come amid ongoing investigations into the fake elector scheme that aimed to keep Trump in power after his 2020 loss to Joe Biden—a plan Trump and his allies continued to promote until his 2024 re-election.While Trump himself had been federally indicted in connection with the elector plot, that case was dismissed after his re-election, citing the Justice Department's policy against prosecuting a sitting president. The pardons only apply to federal charges and do not shield recipients from state-level prosecutions, which remain active in some jurisdictions. The White House has not publicly commented on the latest round of pardons, many of which were not formally announced.Included in the list of recipients are legal and political figures such as John Eastman, Christina Bobb, and Boris Epshteyn, all of whom played public roles in contesting the 2020 results. The full number of individuals pardoned could be even higher, as the list may include unnamed individuals.Trump pardons Giuliani and dozens of others accused of seeking to overturn his 2020 defeat | Reuters This is a public episode.

È previsto per domani 11 novembre alle ore 17.00 l incontro "Trasformare la moda Made in Italy per rafforzare la sua leadership mondiale", promosso su iniziativa del Senatore Giorgio Maria Bergesio e organizzato da Confindustria Moda, presso il Senato della Repubblica. Per il Presidente di Confindustria Moda, Luca Sburlati, sarà l'occasione perpresentare le linee guida del Piano Strategico Industriale 2035 delle filiere Tessile, Moda e Accessori, elaborato da Confindustria Moda insieme a Confindustria Accessori Moda, con il supporto scientifico di LIUC Business School, che mira a garantire la competitività e la sostenibilità del sistema moda italiano, coinvolgendo tutte le componenti produttive, dal tessile-abbigliamento alla pelle, dalla calzatura agli accessori. Ne parliamo con Luca Sburlati (nella foto), Presidente Confindustria Moda.Usa, accordo sullo shutdown al SenatoIl Senato ha approvato domenica sera tardi la prima fase di un accordo che porrebbe fine allo shutdown del governo statunitense, iniziato il 1° ottobre. La misura procedurale che consente di tenere altre votazioni essenziali per l accordo a partire da oggi lunedì è stata approvata con un minimo di 60 voti favorevoli, dopo che otto senatori democratici hanno rotto con la leadership del partito per sostenere l accordo. Quaranta senatori hanno votato contro. «Sembra che ci stiamo avvicinando molto alla fine dello shutdown» del governo Usa, ha dichiarato il presidente degli Stati Uniti Donald Trump ai giornalisti dopo l accordo raggiunto in Senato per finanziare le attività governative ma solo fino al 30 gennaio. In base all'accordo, infatti, il Congresso approverebbe il finanziamento per l'intero anno per i dipartimenti dell'Agricoltura, degli Affari dei Veterani e per il Congresso stesso, mentre finanzierebbe altre agenzie fino al 30 gennaio. Trump, che ha graziato Giuliani e gli alleati che contestarono il voto del 2020, ha anche assicurato che ogni cittadino americano, ad eccezione di chi percepisce redditi elevati, riceverà un bonus di almeno 2mila dollari grazie ai dazi imposti sui commerci internazionali. Ora siamo il Paese più ricco e rispettato del mondo, quasi senza inflazione , ha scritto Trump sulla sua piattaforma Truth Social. «Si pagherà un dividendo di almeno 2mila dollari a persona (senza includere chi ha redditi alti) a tutti», ha aggiunto il presidente, difendendo la sua politica commerciale pochi giorni dopo che una maggioranza dei giudici della Corte Suprema ha manifestato scetticismo riguardo alla decisione da parte di Trump di ricorrere ai poteri economici di emergenza per imporre i dazi globali. Approfondiamo il tema con Alessandro Plateroti, Direttore Newsmondo.it.Bottega, l'imprenditore del vino: Il taglio Irpef non basta, diamo noi 1.250 euro ai dipendentiIl welfare ai dipendenti non è una novità per Sandro Bottega, ma questa volta ha deciso di raccontarlo in un'intervista. Al timone dell omonima azienda vinicola veneta che sfiora i 100 milioni di euro di giro d affari ed esporta in 160 Paesi, Bottega, ha scelto di reagire a quella che considera una misura insufficiente della Manovra sul taglio dell Irpef. E lo ha fatto intervenendo in prima persona. Come? «Erogando un welfare straordinario di 1.250 euro per ognuno dei nostri 250 dipendenti». Anche l anno scorso avete dato contributi ai vostri lavoratori. E così quello prima. Perché questa volta è diverso? «Credo nella soddisfazione del nostro personale, e ritengo che in questo caso lo Stato non abbia fatto abbastanza nella finanziaria per i lavoratori dipendenti, che pagano la maggior parte delle tasse. Se il governo punta sul concordato, io preferisco premiare chi paga le tasse ogni giorno». Dunque, la sua è semplice polemica politica? «Niente affatto. La decisione è nata ascoltando le necessità delle persone. L inflazione degli ultimi anni è stata molto intensa, e gli stipendi non hanno tenuto il passo. Anche se ora i valori sono rientrati in parametri più accettabili, l impatto sui bilanci familiari resta. Abbiamo ritenuto doveroso intervenire». Ne parliamo con Sandro Bottega, presidente della Spa Bottega di Bibano di Godega.
