Thursday, April 23rd, 2025 - VP’s Ukraine push; Admin cuts hit milk tests, LGBTQ crisis line & Head Start; Tariff lawsuits; Weinstein retrial & more

  • Resumen

  • Today’s Headlines: Vice President JD Vance met with India’s Prime Minister Modi and urged Ukraine to accept a U.S. peace deal that heavily favors Russia, freezing current territorial lines and blocking NATO membership. Trump followed up by blaming Zelensky for stalled negotiations. Meanwhile, the administration is slashing programs across agencies: the FDA will stop testing milk for contaminants, the LGBTQ youth crisis line may lose funding, and Head Start is also on the chopping block. On the economic front, markets are volatile amid mixed messaging from Trump about trade with China and the future of Fed Chair Jerome Powell. Despite saying he won’t fire Powell, Trump is pressuring him to lower interest rates. A dozen states are now suing the administration, claiming its tariff policy is unconstitutional. And in New York, Harvey Weinstein faces a new trial for sexual assault, pleading not guilty as his attorney bizarrely claimed “the casting couch is not a crime scene.” Resources/Articles mentioned in this episode: NY Times: Vance Outlines U.S. Plan for Ukraine That Sharply Favors Russia NBC News: Trump slams Zelenskyy for rejecting Ukraine-Russia negotiations, saying a deal was 'very close' The Guardian: FDA suspends milk quality-control testing program after Trump layoffs | US domestic policy Axios: LGBTQ+ youth suicide hotline among proposed HHS budget cuts NBC News: Markets close higher — but see bigger gains evaporate — as the Trump administration signals softer trade stance Ap News: A dozen states sue the Trump administration to stop tariff policy NBC News: Markets close higher — but see bigger gains evaporate — as the Trump administration signals softer trade stance NBC News: In retrial openings, prosecutors portray Harvey Weinstein as a powerful mogul who ‘preyed’ on women Morning Announcements is produced by Sami Sage alongside Bridget Schwartz and edited by Grace Hernandez-Johnson Learn more about your ad choices.
