Tariffs: This election’s political weapon; Think Train Week; warehousing report | WHAT THE TRUCK?!?

On Episode 761 of WHAT THE TRUCK?!?, Dooner is talking about global trade and tariffs with OEC Group’s Erik Rosica. Rosica discusses how tariffs are the new political weapon in industrial relations and how supply chains are being impacted. From Section 321 tariffs to Trump’s vow to raise tariffs on China, will supply chains pay the price?

You know all those videos we post of trucks getting hit by trains? Operation Lifesaver is trying to put a stop to them and all train tragedies by bringing awareness to rail safety this Think Train Week. Operation Lifesaver’s Jennifer DeAngelis gets us on the right track when considering safety around trains. 

Buske Logistics just added five more warehouses to its portfolio. We’ll catch up with Steve Schlect to find out about that strategic move, warehousing trends and what areas are hot right now. 

Plus, Tennessee Volunteers equipment truck crashes in Arkansas; rail load toppled in Texas; cargo theft surges in Mexico; how many cameras to keep a truck safe; and more.
