Trump’s tariffs were initially banned – before being overturned within a day. A federal court had blocked the tariffs on Wednesday night after three judges ruled that Trump had overstepped his authority when introducing them. But just a day later the decision was temporarily paused after a federal appeal court reinstated the tariffs. The White House now says they will “win this battle in court”. We explain what it all means and dig deeper into the legal aspect of the economic measures. Also on the programme: Israel has announced a major expansion of Jewish settlements in the occupied West Bank. More than twenty new settlements have been approved. We hear from a Settler and a Palestinian living in the West Bank. And, Elon Musk has left the US Department of Government Efficiency, also known as Doge. We speak to someone who was also given the task of ‘reinventing government’ efficiency during Bill Clinton’s time in power to discuss how effective Musk really was in his job.
