We recently heard about the “Unite 4 Veterans” rally, June 6th in Washington DC, where vets from around the country will make their voices heard in the loudest way possible … with the legendary Irish punk band The Dropkick Murphys. We spoke with Unite4Vets coalition members Army veterans Will Attig and Chris Purdy. Together they sounded the alarm about recent VA cuts without regard to the second order effects on veterans who rely on these programs. In a recent statement, Unite 4 Veterans said, “The Unite 4 Veterans Coalition stands in firm opposition to recent actions and proposals from the White House that amount to political theater at the direct expense of our nation's veterans … The administration's proposal to eliminate more than 80,000 positions from the VA and terminate thousands of jobs held by veterans and their families in the federal workforce is a betrayal. Veterans make up more than a third of the federal workforce. Cutting their positions while simultaneously gutting the VA staff that manages transition programs like the G.I. Bill and VA vocational rehabilitation is not about efficiency, it's neglect! This administration's priorities could not be clearer: spend over $50 million on a military parade while slashing programs like the Veterans Affairs Servicing Purchase (VASP) program—a proven resource that kept over 17,000 vulnerable veteran families housed. This is not sound policy; it is political optics at the expense of those who've sacrificed the most.” We also discuss the combat connection veterans have to Boston's legendary punk band The Dropkick Murphys, and how they've always been huge supporters of first responders, veterans and America's often ignored working class.

We simply do not have enough time to discuss all the accomplishments President Trump and his administration achieved last week and over the weekend. In Geneva, along with Secretary of the Treasury Scott Bessent and U.S. Trade Representative Jamieson Greer, President Trump was able to reach a trade agreement with China. By May 14th, the United States and China will lower tariffs by 115 percent. Both countries will suspend the 34 percent reciprocal tariffs, while the U.S. will retain its 10 percent fair-trade tariff. This is a huge step in rebalancing the massive trade deficit the Biden administration allowed to take place. In 2020, President Trump put in place an excellent trade agreement with China that Biden did not enforce. President Trump was able to negotiate a ceasefire between two nuclear armed countries, Pakistan and India over the weekend. The president was able to negotiate with trade deals in mind when bringing the immediate ceasefire to the two countries. At home, President Trump reduced drug prices by 30 - 80 percent. By creating a "most favored nation" policy, President Trump is ensuring that Americans will pay the same price as the nation that pays the lowest price in the world. President Trump also secured the return of the last remaining American hostage in Gaza, Edan Alexander. Just as the historic trade deal with the U.K. and the surrender of the Houthis last week, the Trump administration steamrolls an incredible amount of accomplishments over the weekend. Meanwhile, lunatic Democrats stormed an ICE facility because they were concerned about the safety of the precious gang members and criminals they love so much.

On this episode of the podcast, former Deputy Assistant Secretary of Health at the Department of Health & Human Resources David Mansdoerfer discusses President Donald Trump's new executive order to reduce drug prices by up to 80% — requiring pharmaceutical companies to match the lowest prices of ‘most-favored-nations.' Mansdoerfer highlights that this policy was anticipated and previously aligned with the president's first term actions. He noted that while the pharmaceutical industry may initially resist, the order could benefit by preventing price gouging in foreign markets.Furthermore, the conversation touches on the broader implications of the order, including potential backlash, the role of Medicare in drug pricing, and the impact of COVID-19 policies on public health.You can keep up with David or Amanda on X by following their accounts: @Dpmansdo and @AmandaHead.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Donald Trump's return to the White House has brought with it a seismic shift in transatlantic dynamics, with rising trade tensions, reduced diplomatic engagement and growing uncertainty over the future of Western alliances. So what has been the early impact of his second term on EU–US relations and how is Europe responding? With Trump's administration wasting no time in rekindling the “America First” doctrine, this time with fewer diplomatic niceties, tensions over trade, diplomacy and the long-term stability of the transatlantic alliance quickly arose. From the imposition of sweeping tariffs on EU goods – 20 percent across the board, covering all exports from France and other member states – to a reduction in support for Ukraine, Trump's early moves have sent a clear message: Washington's priorities have shifted – and not in Europe's favour.Brussels' response, while restrained, has been firm, and the sense that Europe can no longer rely fully on Washington is taking root.Trump's tariffs come into force, upending economic ties with EuropeRetreat, rather than reformOne of the most striking aspects of Trump's second term so far is his rapid dismantling of traditional US diplomatic structures.Former US diplomat William Jordan warns that the institutional capacity of American diplomacy is being hollowed out. “The notion of America First risks turning into America Alone,” he said.“Everything that's been happening since 20 January has largely demoralised and damaged the State Department."There has been an exodus of seasoned diplomats, alongside a wave of politically motivated "loyalty tests" handed out to charities, NGOs and United Nations agencies as part of the State Department's review of foreign aid – asking them to declare whether they have worked with "entities associated with communist, socialist, or totalitarian parties, or any parties that espouses anti-American beliefs".European allies rally behind Ukraine after White House clashThe cumulative effect of this threat to the impartiality of America's foreign service, Jordan notes, is a profound erosion of trust – not just within US institutions but among global partners.“There are worries in the intelligence community that longstanding partners can no longer share sensitive information with the United States,” he added, raising concerns about the durability of intelligence alliances such as Five Eyes, comprising the US, the United Kingdom, Canada, Australia and New Zealand.Trump's decision to scale back overseas missions and USAID funding has also left vast vacuums of influence – particularly in Africa, where both China and Russia are stepping in to fill the void.“It's not just that it's being done – it's how it's being done. Brutally. Recklessly. Slashing and burning institutions that have taken decades to build,” Jordan told RFI.Amid this weakening of America's traditional soft power influence, however, Jordan also cautions that the country's soft power strategies have not always been effective, pointing to congressional inertia and overlapping funding mandates which have dulled strategic impact.Still, he maintains, a haphazard retreat does more harm than reform.A dressing-down in MunichEurope's discomfort was visible in February at the Munich Security Conference, where US Vice President JD Vance delivered a remarkable rebuke to European leaders, accusing them of wavering on democratic values.The message was harsh, and the delivery even more so – an unprecedented public dressing-down in a diplomatic forum. The reaction in Munich embodied Europe's growing unease.European fears mount at Munich conference as US signals shift on Ukraine“Certainly the language was something that you wouldn't expect,” Mairéad McGuinness, the former EU Commissioner for Financial Stability told RFI.“This is somebody coming to our house and telling us they don't like how we run it. It's not what you expect between friends and allies. Was it a surprise? Maybe not,” she added. “But it's not normal."The incident underscored an increasingly assertive US posture under Trump 2.0, and the deepening fissures within the Western alliance, reflected in the new administration's willingness to publicly challenge long-standing relationships.European allies rally behind Ukraine after White House clash'Confidence in the US is eroding'The EU has responded with a measured approach – "how the European Union tends to do its business,” according to McGuinness.“What is problematic is trying to understand exactly what the US side wants,” she continued. “We're hearing not just about tariffs, but also about food safety, financial regulation – areas where Europe leads globally."Rather than caving to pressure, the EU is showing signs of a more confident and coordinated strategic posture – in a similar vein to its response during the Covid-19 crisis and its rapid support for Ukraine following Russia's 2022 invasion.One consequence of these shifting diplomatic sands has been a rise in investment in European defence, following the US decision to suspend military aid to Ukraine.EU Commission chief calls for defence 'surge' in address to EU parliamentWith EU Commission President Ursula von der Leyen announcing that, under the Rearm Europe plan announced by  on 6 March, EU member states can boost defence spending, European arms manufacturers are seizing the opportunity to compete against their US rivals.While not a wholesale pivot away from the US, it signals a broader awareness that over-reliance on any single partner carries risks.William Jordan put it bluntly: “Confidence in the US as a reliable partner is eroding, and not just in Europe.”For him, this moment could present an opportunity for Europe to build a more independent and robust security architecture – one less vulnerable to the whims of any one American president.

P.M. Edition for April 23. We exclusively report that President Trump is considering cutting steep tariffs on Chinese imports, a move that could de-escalate the trade war. WSJ chief China correspondent Lingling Wei tells us what that means for the broader relationship between the U.S. and China. Plus, not even a U-turn on the trade war would erase concerns over erratic economic policy that may make U.S. assets seem riskier to some foreign investors. Heard on the Street columnist Jon Sindreu discusses what a flight of foreign investment could mean for U.S. markets. And as companies prepare for the impact of tariffs, they are already weighing how to pass those additional costs on to consumers.
