Hey, Tea Sippers! This week, we’re breaking down one of the biggest legal headlines of the year. The U.S. Supreme Court has ruled that Trump‑era tariffs were illegal — so what does that actually mean for everyday people, for trade, and for our neighbors in Canada who’ve been watching this closely?

We also look at major developments in the U.K., where the former Prince Andrew has been arrested following new information from the Epstein files. These documents raise questions about state secrets, public accountability, and the growing list of well‑known figures connected to the case.

In media news, Savannah Chrisley made headlines after defending Donald Trump and responding to a racist video involving the Obamas. Her comments sparked strong reactions, including from The View hosts, and we unpack why this moment resonated so widely.

Finally, we discuss the timing and impact of the sone to be released “alien files,” and how major disclosures can shift public attention during politically intense moments.

This show brings news and political analysis from the perspective of a Queer, Black Midwesterner — grounded, informed, and connected to the issues shaping our communities
