President Donald Trump plans to impose a 5% tariff on everything imported from Mexico starting June 10 unless the Mexican government addresses illegal immigration to the U.S. In tweeting the demand, the president did not provide any guidance on how Mexico could satisfy that demand. Still, Pro Farmer Washington analyst Jim Wiesemeyer thinks the two countries will find resolution before the tariffs go in place. Farm Journal news director John Herath and AgWeb.com policy writer Anna-Lisa Laca join in an analysis of the new tariff threat, the growing angst over the tariff aid package and how it relates to prevented plant insurance and the last-minute announcement of year-round E15 in this week's DC Signal to Noise Podcast.
