Dow down 650 points as POTUS Trump confirms tariffs on Mexico and Canada will start Tuesday


Listen Later

President Trump said today that tariffs on goods from Mexico and Canada would go into effect tomorrow. The announcement ended a month-long delay after both U.S. neighbors struck temporary deals to avoid the new tariffs.

The President also said he doesn’t think a proposed investment deal to secure access to Ukraine’s rare earth minerals is dead and---in a social media post--- that the US will QUOTE not put up” with perceived resistance by President Volodymyr Zelensky to end Russia's war with Ukraine.

Meanwhile, in London, British Prime Minister Keir Starmer announced today a coalition of the willing to advance peace following a meeting in London with European and Canadian leaders.

The President's comments come as he prepares a speech to Congress tomorrow. It's expected that a large part of his speech will be about his domestic agenda. 

And just 11 more days until a possible government shutdown. Punchbowl News is reporting that House Republican leaders don’t plan on putting a continuing resolution on the floor until early next week.
