This week on Economic Update, Professor Wolff delivers updates on Trump as a distraction vehicle, more of French President Macron's corruption, how the global coffee price collapse is driving immigrants to the U.S., the right’s opposition to free tuition and student loans and why Trump and the GOP do nothing to stop the jobs exodus from the U.S.
In the second half of this week’s show, Professor Wolff interviews Dr. Harriet Fraad on the implications of the U.S. women's soccer victories.
