Welcome to our VIP feature for Hot Air as well as a members-only show in the Hughniverse! Duane Patterson and I now are doing a Week in Review show for Friday evenings, exclusive to members in both platforms. Duane has been the Generalissimo behind the Hugh Hewitt Show for more than two decades, and we have partnered on weekly commentary since 2007. And don't miss Duane's new podcast series and platform, Duane's World!
What stories topped your priority lists this week? For us, the top story is the Tariff Tango and the markets. Did Liberation Day go according to plan, or did Donald Trump make changes as the markets responded? Duane and I debate that, as well as whether Peter Navarro will last much longer in the White House as Scott Bessent seems to have prevailed on trade policy. Will the US and India make the first big deal that will boost confidence with consumers and investors? We also discuss the Supreme Court rulings this week, the House's response to district-court judges, and next steps at DHS and the Department of Justice.
Be sure to watch it all, and extend the conversation in the comments!
