Devolution Power Hour Ep. 478: Correspondents' Dinner, Cuba, and Creative Tariffs

Jon Herold and Chris Paul call this a slow news week and then spend the next few hours proving otherwise. They kick off with Trump's best clips from the White House Correspondents' Dinner and his various media rounds, then dig into a newly surfaced Cuba report that Chris actually read this time. There's a stretch dedicated to Steve Bannon's War Room appearances and a somewhat confusing back and forth clip involving the hosts talking about themselves talking about Bannon (yes, really), plus a JD Vance clip worth chewing on. The back half gets into Trump's new round of tariffs on sixty countries tied to forced labor violations, and how he keeps finding fresh legal angles to impose tariffs even after the Supreme Court pushed back on the old ones. Toss in a Laura Loomer and Ukraine detour, and it's a fuller episode than the "boring week" opener let on.
