The world just refuses to slow down, so TFR is back from Spring Break with a doozy of an episode. This week, Seena and Travis break down the “free” $400 million “palace in the sky” Trump seems intent on accepting from Qatar. It’s hard to believe anyone needs to do this, but we break down why this is a bad idea. We also take a look at the India/Pakistan ceasefire and why India isn’t too thrilled with US involvement. We discuss tariff updates, check in on our deteriorating relationship with Israel, and marvel at Trump’s stretching of the word refugee to include Afrikaners. And, as always, we have JD Vance corner. It’s a lot of episode guys so strap in!
