00:00Well, what are you going to do? Watch the stock market today? I bet you are.
00:04It's 654 with Mason in the game. And that's part of the three things you need to know to get through your So Happy It's Tuesday.
00:11Russia!
00:12China has announced it will raise tariffs from 10 to 25% on $60 billion of U.S. goods beginning on June 1st.
00:20This comes as a retaliatory action after President Trump raised tariffs from 10% to 25% on Chinese goods.
00:26And Trump said on Friday, there's absolutely no rush on a trade deal with China.
00:31Yesterday, he tweeted that the situation will only get worse.
00:34Yesterday, stock markets tumbled.
00:36But futures are up today. Hopefully, we'll see a bounce back.
00:39What does this mean for all of us beyond impacting our stock portfolios?
00:43Don't drop your iPhone.
00:45Those are made over there in Shenzhen, so the tariffs are going to hit those.
00:49And if your iPhone wasn't more expensive enough already.
00:53Exactly.
00:53You know, but it is kind of interesting to sit here and watch these two giants of the political countries.
00:59And biggest economies, yes.
01:01Yeah, standing there face-to-face, spitting on each other.
01:04They'll agree to something about it.
01:06It's all going to get fixed sooner or later.
01:08If you have a child who attends a school in Hillsborough County, their mascot may be changing.
01:13Uh-oh.
01:13A handful of schools are choosing new mascots to show respect to the Native American community.
01:17Adams Middle School, currently the Warriors, and elementary schools, Forest Hills, Brooker, Ruskin, Fanonisassa, and Summerfield.
01:25Those are all changing.
01:27So families who have kids at these schools received notices about the change last week, asked for input on choosing new mascot names.
01:34Now, high schools, East Bay Indians and Chamberlain Chiefs, are not going to make mascot name changes.
01:40However, they'll be changing rituals and costumes at sporting events to be less offensive.
01:46You can read more on this story on our website, myqno5.com.
01:49I wonder if before they sent those notices out to tell us what you'd like to have them changed to, did they ask if you wanted to have them changed first?
01:58Or is this just the school board acting out of, yeah, I'm sorry, stupidity?
02:04Way in on our Facebook page.
02:06Yeah.
02:06Let's put that post up in a little bit.
02:07Yeah.
02:08I bet some Tampa Bay race players may have had plans to enjoy dining on South Beach on their night off last night.
02:13Nope.
02:13But because of weather-related issues, they didn't make it down to Miami.
02:17They were supposed to leave yesterday at 5 p.m.
02:19Instead, we'll leave at 9 a.m. this morning.
02:21Wow.
02:21The crew that takes the race to Miami, they couldn't all get in last night from Atlanta because the runways were closed at Tampa International.
02:28So it's very unusual that an MLB team will play the same day they travel to a particular city.
02:34But don't worry, it shouldn't hamper the race because it's a 40-minute flight.
02:37The airport, the hotel, and the stadium are all right there close together.
02:41So they're going to be fine today.
