Friday on the “Alex Marlow Show,” Breitbart London Bureau Chief Oliver JJ Lane talked about former Prince Andrew.
Lane said, “Assuming any of this is true, we don’t know yet. Um, it may be that some of this money came from the fact that he had advanced information about global affairs that he was getting from these people in his network and one of these people may have been Prince Andrew.”
Friday on the “Alex Marlow Show,” Breitbart Economics and Finance Editor John Carney talked about tariffs.
Carney said, “There’s about a half-dozen other statutes that specifically authorize the president to impose tariffs. They did it under IEEPA because there’s less procedural hurdles, and they believed it allowed them more flexibility. They can do it under these other statutes. So, a lot of the tariffs that will get knocked down because you can’t do them under IEEPA are probably going to come back pretty quickly.”
Friday on the “Alex Marlow Show,” host and Breitbart Editor-in-Chief Alex Marlow discussed tariffs.
Marlow said, “So the people who hate our country are going to root for us to give back the $175 billion we’ve already collected. So, clearly, just pretty devastating if that would be the case.”
A newly leaked audio revealed how Mexico’s top naval officials talked about covering up fuel theft and smuggling operations that reached the highest levels of the military institution and were also connected at the highest levels of Mexico’s ruling party, MORENA.

On Saturday’s broadcast of “Fox News Live,” Sen. John Fetterman (D-PA) stated that the DHS shutdown “is nothing more than people that are afraid of the base to just explain to them that shutting down the entire DHS will have no impact or make those kinds of reforms for ICE.”
A Texas Department of Public Safety (DPS) Aircraft Operations Division drone pilot detected three illegal immigrants moments after they crossed the Rio Grande early Thursday, guiding troopers and Border Patrol agents to the group.

President Trump’s new tariffs were imposed under Section 122 of the Trade Act of 1974, which allows temporary import restrictions when the United States faces “fundamental international payments problems,” including a “large and serious” balance-of-payments deficit. The term is not commonly used outside economic policy circles, but it refers broadly to a country’s financial relationship with the rest of the world.
President Trump moved hours after the Supreme Court struck down his emergency tariffs to invoke a separate trade authority, imposing an import surcharge on most goods that takes effect February 24. He initially set the rate at ten percent, then raised it the next day to fifteen percent—the maximum allowed under the statute—saying in a social media post that the increase followed a “thorough, detailed, and complete review” of the court’s ruling.
On Saturday’s broadcast of the Fox News Channel’s “Fox & Friends,” United States Ambassador to Israel Mike Huckabee responded to a question on if Iran is rebuilding its nuclear program by saying that they are “continuing to try to enrich uranium. They haven’t given up on it” and “they are building up, at an alarming rate, their ballistic missile capacity. That’s not a defensive posture.”
On Friday’s broadcast of HBO’s “Real Time,” host Bill Maher said that Democratic politicians do end-run voters and the legislative branch by imposing fees that are basically just stealth tax increases.
Maher began by praising the Supreme Court’s tariffs decision, while Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-CO) criticized the ruling.
On Friday’s broadcast of HBO’s “Real Time,” host Bill Maher said that “the left is very down on America, very down on the West, and it’s ironic, because the West has also given us everything that makes your life good here.” And “I wish that schools would teach that again.”
President Donald Trump announced on Saturday that he is immediately raising the worldwide tariffs he imposed on Friday from 10 percent to 15 percent.
Trump unveiled the new tariff rate in a post on Truth Social:
Based on a thorough, detailed, and complete review of the ridiculous, poorly written, and extraordinarily anti-American decision on Tariffs issued yesterday, after MANY months of contemplation, by the United States Supreme Court, please let this statement serve to represent that I, as President of the United States of America, will be, effective immediately, raising the 10% Worldwide Tariff on Countries, many of which have been “ripping” the U.S. off for decades, without retribution (until I came along!), to the fully allowed, and legally tested, 15% level.
