Uncertainty thrives before Wednesday’s upcoming 'Liberation Day'

'Liberation Day' -- it's what President Donald Trump is calling Wednesday, April 2nd. Why? Because it's the day, he says, when the U.S. will see a reduction in all trade imbalances. But there's still a lot of uncertainty about what will come on Liberation Day and how it'll affect the American people. Inside Sources begins with a discussion on how that uncertainty is contributing to several days of a more volatile stock market and already-raising prices.

GOP Senators push back on proposal to impeach judges who rule against Trump

As President Trump continues his push for federal judges who rule against him to be impeached, Senate Republicans have a warning: don't try it. Even Senate Judiciary Chair Chuck Grassley said it's not appropriate to impeach a judge just because the president disagrees with their opinion. But that's not stopping House Republicans from still moving forward with plans to restrict the judiciary. The Inside Sources hosts describe the whys and hows.

Special elections could affect the makeup of Congress

A few special elections tomorrow could affect the national stage, both immediately and in the long-term. In Wisconsin, voters will pick a new Supreme Court justice who could play a role in the district maps within that state. There are also two congressional races in Florida; Republicans are favored to win those seats again, but there seems to be some worry about Democrats performing well. Taylor Morgan and Rusty Cannon share their thoughts on whether these races might be an indicator of President Trump’s approval so far this term.

Could Pres. Trump run for a 3rd term?

While he's joked about it in the past, this weekend President Trump told NBC News that he's no longer joking -- he's looking into the possibility of running for a third term as President. The 22nd Amendment to the U.S. Constitution forbids a president from being elected more than twice. But the President says he and his team are looking into other ways to go about this, with the president saying he "likes working."

Long-delayed high-speed rail project in California needs $7 Billion more

For a cost of only $40 Billion, California set out to build a high-speed railway from San Francisco and Sacramento to Los Angeles. The opening date? Well, it was supposed to be 2020. Now, the cost of the project has ballooned to more than $100 Million and won't open until 2030... with the system not being fully operational until 2050. Oh, and the state says they now need another $7 Billion to finish the part they're working on now. The hosts talk about this “colossal failure” of a project.
