In February, Congressman Ro Khanna penned a New York Times op-ed noting that to persuade Americans that transformative government is capable of improving their lives, we must reverse what many have experienced as decades of stagnation and decline. "With the establishment of both parties defeated, we are, as you may have heard, at a fork in the road." Khanna wrote, "Either the country will continue to succumb to a burn-it-all-down political nihilism and disillusionment, or Democrats can use this moment of crisis to reframe the terms of the debate."rnrnBut what are the terms of that debate? And what are the initiatives and solutions that will heal our divides during uncertain times?rnrnRo Khanna is a United States Congressman from California's 17th District in the heart of Silicon Valley. He has a vision to transform America into a modern manufacturing and technology superpower, and he partners it with a commitment to passing Medicare for All, a $17-dollar minimum wage, and free public college and vocational school. Congressman Khanna is Deputy Whip of the Congressional Progressive Caucus and served as co-chair of Bernie Sanders' 2020 presidential campaign.

You've heard endless debate about the trade deficit, but what about its evil twin, the budget deficit? In this episode, Mark Thornton untangles the truth behind the so-called “twin deficits,” revealing why trade imbalances aren't necessarily bad, and how government borrowing distorts investment, fuels inflation, and weakens long-term prosperity.

In this episode of Uncommon Sense with Ginny Robinson, I'm giving my take (to the best of my ability—because I'm not a tariff expert and neither are most of the people chiming in right now) on Trump's gutsy new tariff move. It's the one that's got half the country cheering and the other half clutching their pearls. While the media yells “economic suicide,” I'm here to suggest that this strategy might actually work—but not overnight. We'll talk about the possibility of long-term gain, the reality of short-term discomfort, and the cultural obsession with instant results when what's often required is patience. I will also go over our collective short attention spans and why longer attention spans are needed for understanding complex issues like this. Every answer won't fit in a 15 second soundbite. At the end of the day, we'll have to pray, wait, and see. Some of the smartest plays take time to unfold.—https://noblegoldinvestments.com/learn/gold-and-silver-guide/?utm_campaign=21243613394&utm_source=g&utm_medium=cpc&utm_content=&utm_term=noble%20gold&seg_aprod=&ad_id=698073353663&oid=2&affid=1&utm_source=google&affiliate_source=googleads_brand_bmbc&utm_term=noble%20gold&gad_source=1&gbraid=0AAAAADQ2DzJSJ_mi5cJo8dO2FNUs7uNy-&gclid=CjwKCAjwktO_BhBrEiwAV70jXtjSCyioSM2Hz1McTAlR3f8t3KCDDN3-XBWLaIzwJmiEGe0ztxIk5RoCnM0QAvD_BwE

Tariff Announcement: President Trump announced a ten percent baseline tariff on virtually every country, with specific tariffs for individual countries ranging from ten to forty-nine percent. This is the highest rate of tariffs the United States has had in place since 1930. Political and Economic Implications: The announcement has caused anxiety and concern among people, with Democrats criticizing the move and Republicans defending it. The podcast discusses the potential outcomes, including the possibility of other countries lowering their tariffs in response, which could be beneficial for the American economy. Potential Risks: There are significant risks if other countries retaliate with their own tariffs, leading to a trade war and increased inflation. The impact on various industries, such as the automotive industry, is discussed, with concerns about rising prices for both new and used cars. Economic Analysis: The Tax Foundation's analysis predicts that if the tariffs remain in effect, imports will fall by twenty-eight percent, and the US GDP will shrink by 0.8 percent over the next decade. The tariffs could result in a significant tax increase for American consumers. Political Consequences: The outcome of these tariffs could influence the 2026 midterm elections, with potential repercussions for the Republican party if the economy suffers. Senator Cruz expresses hope for a positive outcome but acknowledges the high risks involved. Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.

Donald Trump has introduced eye-watering tariffs on countries around the world. Will they ‘make America wealthy again'? Richard Partington reports. Help support our independent journalism at theguardian.com/infocus

In what he called "Liberation Day", Donald Trump imposed heavy tariffs on countries around the world, falsely claiming they were "reciprocal". In reality, the taxes on imports were based on the US trade deficit with other nations. Ben Norton explains how the Trump administration's economic policies are contradictory and will backfire hard on the US economy, fueling inflation while failing to re-industrialize.

President Trump has declared today “Liberation Day,” because many of his tariffs come into force. His team is taking a gamble that either the law of supply and demand does not apply to trade or that the American public will be uncharacteristically fine with higher prices.Read the article here: https://mises.org/mises-wire/trumps-liberation-day-tariffs-are-mistakeThe Mises Institute is giving away 100,000 copies of Murray Rothbard's, What Has Government Done to Our Money?

Richard Clarida, global economic advisor at Pacific Investment Management Co. (PIMCO), and former Federal Reserve Vice Chairman, says there is “already at least a whiff of stagflation right now” in the US economy, but he doesn’t expect the Federal Reserve to act pre-emptively to cut rates and sees the central bank waiting until tariff policies negatively impact economic data. He speaks with Bloomberg's Tom Keene and Paul Sweeney. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Send us a textRentership rates across the United States have climbed to a nine-year high of 36% according to fresh Redfin data, marking a significant shift in the housing landscape as we move through 2025. This growing preference—or necessity—for renting over homeownership tells a compelling story about affordability challenges that continue to shape real estate markets nationwide.Major metropolitan areas like Austin, San Francisco, and Miami are experiencing skyrocketing rents, yet the demand shows no signs of slowing down. This trend is creating substantial opportunities for real estate investors focused on multifamily properties, while simultaneously reshaping population distribution as people seek more affordable living options. The paradox of rising rents alongside unattainable homeownership is pushing more Americans toward long-term renting situations that were once considered temporary.Despite these affordability hurdles, February 2025 home prices increased to a median of $403,000—up 2.7% year over year. What's particularly fascinating is where this growth is happening: smaller suburban markets are seeing appreciation while larger urban centers like Los Angeles and New York are experiencing noticeable price declines. This geographic divergence highlights a migration pattern driven by value-seeking buyers who want more space for their money. Meanwhile, mortgage rates continue their volatile journey, currently sitting around 6.9% for 30-year fixed loans after fluctuating with the 10-year Treasury yield. For prospective buyers, the timing question becomes increasingly critical as rates threaten to climb higher.Want to navigate these complex market conditions and build wealth through real estate?

Send us a textWhat does it take to build a 50-year legacy in a competitive industry? Brian Foreman, founder and president of Performance Kitchens and Home, reveals his extraordinary journey from determined young carpenter to established kitchen design visionary in this captivating conversation that bridges craftsmanship with entrepreneurship.When Brian couldn't afford prime real estate for his showroom, he secured an SBA loan to purchase a three-story building for just $40,000—a property now worth exponentially more. His persistence and commitment to excellence allowed him to revolutionize kitchen design presentations in 1980 by building intricate miniature models of every cabinet and appliance when computer design didn't exist. "In every couple, there's one who can visualize and one who cannot," Brian explains, sharing how his innovation reduced presentation times from 12 hours to 45 minutes while dramatically increasing conversions.What truly sets Brian apart is his methodical "Gold Standard" approach to kitchen design, symbolized by a diamond within a circle. The diamond represents four essential elements that must be approached in sequence: architectural design (how the kitchen relates to the home), cabinetry layout, interior design (where most designers mistakenly begin), and lighting design. This system guarantees kitchens that not only look stunning but function perfectly and maximize property values—crucial knowledge for real estate investors seeking maximum returns.Beyond technical expertise, Brian shares remarkable stories of mentorship, including his relationship with legendary furniture designer George Nakashima, for whom he sourced and cut walnut that would later become dining tables worth $30,000-$60,000. His cross-disciplinary learning approach highlights how entrepreneurs in any field can achieve extraordinary results by combining specialized knowledge with artistic sensibility and relentless pursuit of excellence.Ready to transform your kitchen or investment property with design that guarantees maximum value?
