During a segment on 'The Five,' Watters said President Trump reclaimed the Panama Canal, pulled Greenland into the U.S. orbit, boosted NATO funding, and settled wars—all via tariffs—hours after the Supreme Court ruled 6-3 that such broad tariffs need congressional approval. Trump vowed new measures in response, calling the decision a disgrace. Social media users called out the claims as untrue and exaggerated, with facts showing diplomatic progress on Panama fees and Greenland cooperation but no U.S. takeovers, NATO hikes driven more by Russia threats, and fragile ceasefires rather than ended wars.

Wichtigste Erkenntnis

Fox News host Jesse Watters celebrated tariffs as a magic bullet for U.S. foreign policy wins, but viewers weren't buying it.

A YouGov survey of over 1,000 U.S. adults from February 10-13 revealed 50% support for D.C. statehood and 48% for Puerto Rico, compared to just 27% for Greenland and 24% for Canada. Partisan splits stand out: Democrats strongly favor D.C. and Puerto Rico but oppose the others, while Republicans lean against D.C. and Puerto Rico yet show more openness to Greenland. The findings highlight ongoing debates over representation for tax-paying areas without full congressional votes, amid hurdles like stalled bills and Republican control of Congress.

Wichtigste Erkenntnis

Imagine paying federal taxes without a voting senator—that's the daily reality for D.C. residents, and a new poll finds most Americans want to change it for them and Puerto Rico.
