What Will Be the Economic Fallout of Trump’s Immigration Crackdown?
On this episode of Trumponomics, we focus on US President Donald Trump’s crackdown on immigration, what’s at stake for businesses and the economy, what harm has been done already and whether the administration could change course. Jonathan Levin, a Bloomberg Opinion columnist focused on US markets and economics, and Kate Davidson, Bloomberg’s managing editor for US economic policy, join host Stephanie Flanders to discuss the many consequences of Trump’s signature campaign promise, whether his administration is likely to modulate its policies—and whether there could be long-term benefits to the broader economy of forcing employers to offer higher wages and better conditions to attract the workers they need.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Can the World Count on ‘TACO’ Anymore?
In this episode of Trumponomics, we explore whether Donald Trump’s attack on Iran changes the calculus on his “reciprocal” tariffs and a looming deadline. Host Stephanie Flanders is joined by John Authers, senior editor for markets and a Bloomberg Opinion columnist, and Shawn Donnan, senior reporter covering economics, to discuss how markets have been thinking about the July deadline, and how the multitrillion-dollar price tag for the “big beautiful bill” Trump hopes to get through Congress may have raised the probability of a baseline 10% tariff.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
