Trump prepares to initiate tariffs on Mexican imports on Monday, June 10th. Graduated increases will take tariffs from 5% to 25% over 5 months - if Mexico doesn't help stop illegal immigration. Republican Senators stand firmly opposed to this. Amounts to huge tax increase. While they're right, what about the cost of illegal immigration that Americans bear? Can one be opposed to tariffs in general but understand why they may be helpful in the short term here? Schumer says Trump is bluffing. Democrats look to Facebook for $1 donors. And we share the reason they are doing this. A group calling themselves "Super Happy Fun America" is planning a "Straight Pride Parade" in Boston. Twiiter erupts. Many chuckle. Australia pays Al Gore $320k to conduct climate training. For that amount of money, you'd think they'd at least have him talk about how he invented the internet. House passes latest version of DREAM Act.

Donald Trump makes official state visit to London, visits Queen. Protestors. Baby Trump blimp. London Mayor Saddiq Khan calls Trump "a 20th century fascist." A brief history lesson from World War II.

Four year olds determining if they were "born in the wrong body?" Border chaos continues. Nearly 90% of illegal aliens released never show up for court date. The Radical Left does everything in its power to put an end to this nonsense. Uber drivers. Employment law, and the differences between contractors & employees. An update about the show and Mr. Brandit.

Trump to issue tariffs on all Mexican imports on June 10th. Start at 5% and increase by 5% every month until tariffs reach 25%. Cutting through the rhetoric and understanding the rationale for this. Tariffs are not good, but neither is the cost & consequences of illegal immigration. In fact, if tariffs help remedy this proble is greater than the short-term burden of these tariffs - even though I fully acknowledge that tariffs are not good. A springboard to explain why it is that many embrace Trump and what he's doing. And despite what the media and Left say, it doesn't include racism, xenophobia or sexism. Bob Iger says Disney may boycott filming in Georgia if the state's "Heartbeat Bill" takes effect. But as The Daily Caller points out, they have no problem with China, who blatantly abuses human rights of Muslims, Christians and others. Angela Merkel gives Harvard commencement address. Goes after Trump, America First policies

Robert Mueller holds press conference. Shares a summation of the Mueller Report. Resigns from Department of Justice. Begins by framing the purpose of the investigation and discussing what predicated it. Insufficient evidence to recommend charges against Trump. Says his team would have exonerated if he had enough evidence to do so - whatever that would've looked like. Adds that he never would've indicted a sitting president. Sure would've been good if this sort of information was stated upfront. Instead, we had 2-1/2 years of insanity reported, leaving many Americans wondering if President Trump would've been ushered out of the White House in handcuffs. This is soley an impeachment document - and we'll see what Pelosi and Democrats decide to do with it, especially in light of what we discussed on this program both yesterday and Tuesday.

Chris Cillizza interviews Allan Lichtman, who predicted Trump would win 2016 election. Lichtman says Democrats need to turn 3 more key factors against Trump before the Election, or Trump will win. May have to impeach? Scandal isn't a factor Lichtman counts against Trump - which has to make Cillizza's head spin. Video of Joe Biden talking with Chris Matthews resurfaces. Wants to require English for immigrants? Uses term "illegal aliens." Will this impact his ability to win Democrat Primary? Supreme Court upholds part of Indiana law requiring aborted babies to be buried or cremated. Verbal scuffle between Justice Thomas and Justice Ginsberg. Undue burden? Mother?

Political models showing President Trump will win re-election in 2020. Of course, statistics showed us that Hillary had a 98.1% chance of winning in 2016. Votes, not polls or models, determine winners of elections. Rashida Tlaib says House Democrats are close to consensus on impeaching Trump. Election models predicting Trump 2020 victory should be viewed as a backdrop to impeachment discussions. Ian Bremmer, Time contributor and NYU professor, fabricates Trump quote. Broken ideology. Deception. Political battle continues to wage.

Trump writes memo stating that he will be releasing intelligence used to obtain FISA warrant on his campaign. "Proper channels" does not mean private, unsecured servers, by the way. Left feigns outrage. Beating them at their own game? Pressures continue to mount on "Crazy Nancy" - which Trump now calls her. Adam Schiff's response chock-full of nonsense & talking points. Not surprising. Trump asks for his Cabinet, team to describe his mood when canceling meeting with Chuck and Nancy. Young people are not saving money because of - you guessed it - climate change. Brits could be forced to work a 9-hour work week to save planet. How have some been convinced to abandon everything we know about everything else in order to prevent effects of climate change that no one can possibly predict?

Nancy Pelosi announces Trump is guilty of a "cover-up." Trump walks out of meeting on infrastructure. Takes to podium. Isn't working on legislation until Democrats stop the witch hunt. "I don't do cover-ups." Trump in his element. Comparing the narrative on McGahn's conversation with Team Mueller, now and then. The things they try to get away with The backdrop to her statements. Increasing pressure inside the Democrat Party to impeach. Pelosi trying to balance pressures from multiple sources. How can impeachment really be a good idea for Democrats? What will the result be? Would they not be better simply doing this?

Many of us are used to dealing with people with radically different ideologies and worldviews than we have. And while they may sometimes be really wrong about some very important things, their ideas are very rarely rooted in pure evil. But these comments about abortion are certainly evil. National Popular Vote about to add Nevada to its list of states. Getting closer to 270. Would effectively eliminate the Electoral College without directly eliminating it. We discuss why this is a really bad idea. Howard Stern tells Stephen Colbert Trump never wanted to be president. Only wanted the publicity to help negotiate with NBC about The Apprentice.
