Trump Talks Tariffs & Chips in Congressional Address; Disney Job Cuts | Bloomberg Daybreak: US...

On today's podcast:

1) President Trump promises golden age but warns tariffs could cause disturbance, President Trump defended his tariff plan, saying it would raise "trillions and trillions" in revenue and rebalance trading relationships, despite acknowledging potential economic pain. The president touted his tariff moves as effective in bringing jobs to the US, threatened to impose new tariffs, and announced plans for domestic energy production and an office of shipbuilding at the White House.

2) Trump calls for a repeal of the Chips Act. The president touted his tariff moves as more effective at bringing jobs to the US than Biden’s efforts, which included the Chips and Science Act and its billions in subsidies to spur domestic semiconductor manufacturing. Trump urged lawmakers to eliminate the Chips Act and said he would not give chipmakers any more funds from the law.

3) Job cuts are on the way at Disney. The Walt Disney Company is eliminating roughly 200 jobs across its ABC and entertainment TV networks, according to an internal memo. The majority of the cuts affect the ABC News division in New York. Production units including ABC News Studios, 20/20 and Nightline will be consolidated and the impacted employees will be notified on Wednesday, according to the memo.
