**Podcast Episode Description: Unpacking Howard Lutnick’s Impact as US Secretary of Commerce**
Join host Mortimer on The Secretary of Commerce podcast as we delve into the rise of Howard Lutnick, the 41st US Secretary of Commerce. Following his narrow confirmation in February 2025, Lutnick has been a key figure in implementing President Trump’s aggressive trade policies. Discover how Lutnick, a former CEO of Cantor Fitzgerald and Trump ally, is influencing major policy shifts with far-reaching implications.
In this episode, we explore Lutnick's pivotal role in President Trump’s new executive orders on Artificial Intelligence and American Space Superiority. From setting national AI standards to managing space traffic, these orders mark Lutnick as a central player in contentious tech and civil liberties debates. We also examine his involvement in high-stakes international negotiations like Japan’s $550 billion strategic investment pledge, aimed at revitalizing US infrastructure and energy sectors.
With growing political tension over Trump’s Liberation Day tariff package and his capability to merge AI policy with broadband funding, Lutnick’s approach is under scrutiny. From social media debates to industry concerns about potential supply chain shocks, we discuss whether this billionaire banker is the right choice to navigate the complex world of commerce, space, and technology.
