How tariffs could transform the auto industry

from Apple News Today

Michigan’s auto industry is at the forefront of the economic turmoil brought on by the Trump administration’s tariffs. The Wall Street Journal’s Jeanne Whalen tells us about the impact on manufacturers and workers so far.  Flight attendants who work for the airline that’s overseeing most of the federal government’s deportation flights told ProPublica’s McKenzie Funk that they don’t feel like they can treat passengers humanely — or keep them safe. Johnson & Johnson played a much larger role in the opioid crisis in America than many people realize. In his new book, ‘No More Tears: The Dark Secrets of Johnson & Johnson’ — and in our latest episode of Apple News In Conversation — Gardiner Harris reports that the company’s products have led to the deaths and injuries of millions of people. Plus, Trump said the U.S. is in direct talks with Iran over Tehran’s nuclear program, major storms in parts of the Midwest and South killed at least 24 people across multiple states, Chief Justice John Roberts paused a court order to bring a mistakenly deported Maryland man back to the U.S., and how a social-media rumor led to serious stock-market whiplash yesterday. Today’s episode was hosted by Shumita Basu.
