I'm Alex Marlow, editor-in-chief of Breitbart News, and I'm in for Charlie as he debates Gavin Newsom today, my governor, sad to say. But it is a huge news day, so it's a great day to be in Charlie's captain chair. First of all, I go through my theory that everything Trump is doing when it comes to foreign policy and international relations is all about China. It's a unifying doctrine. He is speaking softly and carrying a big stick in this regard. But I talk about all these maneuvers he's making and why it's all about China. Before we get into all things trade, big trade news day, John Carney is here with me. He is our economic and finance editor at Breitbart News. He's a total guru on the subject matter.
He will give you all the arguments you need to debate your liberal friends on trade. And then I break down the Bridge Colby confirmation process and why it matters so much to Charlie and why it matters so much to me. That's it. It's going to be a good show, guys. Buckle up, everybody, because here we go.
Charlie, what you've done is incredible here. Maybe Charlie Kirk is on the college campus. I want you to know we are lucky to have Charlie Kirk.
Charlie Kirk's running the White House, folks. I want to thank Charlie. He's an incredible guy. His spirit, his love of this country. He's done an amazing job building one of the most powerful youth organizations ever created, Turning Point USA.
We will not embrace the ideas that have destroyed countries, destroyed lives, and we are going to fight for freedom on campuses across the country. That's why we are here.

Hello, everyone. I'm Alex Marlowe, editor-in-chief of Breitbart News. Thanks so much to my friend Charlie as well as producer Andrew for inviting me in today. It is a massive news day today. It's Fat Tuesday. Lent is tomorrow. Mardi Gras is tonight. The State of the Union, sort of. We don't call it that tonight as well. and tons and tons of news. I'm editor-in-chief of Breitbart News. If any of you are not familiar with me, if you are familiar, thanks so much for helping us at Breitbart be so big and so robust and so strong. It's all thanks to grassroots audiences like these. If I'm new to you, Breitbart is, I would say, the OG MAGA outlet for the anti-establishment media I guess MAGA before there was MAGA.
And so we love to be the pioneers of this space and are so proud that people like Charlie, who got to start writing for us at Breitbart News, have gone on to do such amazing things. And this is a day, I think, to reflect on how far we've come as a movement. Donald Trump is playing absolute 4D chess right now. And all of this, and this is what today is going to all be about. We have tariff wars breaking out. We've got a big speech breaking out. All of it is about China. No one understands this, but this is all about China. Let me start with what's going on with these tariffs. Tariffs are now in place on Canada and Mexico, 25% starting today. He's also raising tariffs on China by 10%. Canada has now threatened retaliatory tariffs against us, and a lot of people didn't believe that Trump would go through with it. They didn't believe that he would actually enact these things because the Republican Party, the conservative movement for so long, has always been allergic to the idea of tariffs. We've always thought that tariffs are just going to raise prices on Americans.
What they are is they're a tool. They're a tool used to gain leverage globally. And these nations, Mexico and Canada in particular, have not helped us keep China at bay. One of the things that's going on is fentanyl streaming into our country, starting through Mexico, but also through Canada as well. And these nations have not done a good job stopping it. Americans are dying.
