The Brief: Feb. 4, 2025 - Sovereign Wealth, Tariff Triumphs & Intersectional Insubordination

The gears of economic warfare are turning, and today on The Brief, Patrick Gunnels and Ashe in America break down Trump’s latest power move: the creation of a U.S. Sovereign Wealth Fund—a first in American history. Is it just tariffs funding it, or is there a little “what’s theirs is ours” energy in play? We connect the dots back to Saudi Arabia’s 2017 purge and why this could be very bad news for the deep state’s bank accounts.

Meanwhile, Trudeau folds like a cheap lawn chair as Canada agrees to ramp up border security and tackle fentanyl in exchange for a tariff pause—but is this all just theater? Also, Panama kicks China’s Belt and Road Initiative to the curb after a visit from Marco Rubio (yes, that Marco Rubio), and USAID’s panic levels hit DEFCON 1 as Elon’s band of autists dismantle their empire.

All that, plus the libertarian take on tariffs, leftist meltdowns over Trump’s CIA pick, and why “fair trade” has always been a scam. Buckle up, because it’s all happening.
