Trump Announces Additional 10% Tariff on Countries Supporting BRICS Policies

President Donald Trump announced Sunday that nations aligning with the BRICS alliance policies opposing US interests will face an additional 10% tariff, with no exceptions to the policy. Trump made the announcement on his Truth Social platform following criticism from BRICS members regarding his tariff policies and their proposals for International Monetary Fund reforms and currency valuation changes. The BRICS alliance, originally comprising Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa, expanded in recent years to include Egypt, Ethiopia, Indonesia, Iran, Saudi Arabia, and the United Arab Emirates. The bloc represents more than half of the world's population and was designed to enhance member nations' international standing and challenge US and Western European influence. BRICS leaders convened in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, this weekend to discuss reforms to global institutions and position the alliance as a diplomatic platform amid increasing trade […]

The death toll from weekend flooding in central Texas has risen to 82 people, with officials warning that life-threatening flood risks remain high as search crews continue looking for missing individuals.

US Cuts Tariffs on UK Cars and Planesโ€”But Steel Industry Left Behind

Tariff reductions for UK automotive and aerospace sectors have taken effect following Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer's completion of negotiations for relief from US import duties. UK car manufacturers exporting to America now face a reduced 10% tariff quota, down from the previous 27.5%, while aerospace companies will see a 10% levy eliminated completely. Sir Keir described the agreement as a "historic trade deal" with the US, secured after President Donald Trump implemented import taxes as part of his "liberation day" tariffs affecting countries globally. The Prime Minister and US President finalized the sectoral agreement during the G7 summit, though steel tariffs remain at 25% instead of being reduced to zero as initially negotiated. Discussions continue regarding securing 0% tariffs on core UK steel products destined for US markets. Trump's executive order indicates the US seeks guarantees regarding UK steel […]

Trump Calls Iran’s Leader ‘Easy Target’ After Shocking Early G7 Exit

President Donald Trump departed the G7 summit in Canada ahead of schedule, citing urgent matters requiring his attention as tensions between Israel and Iran continue to escalate. His early departure came as world leaders worked to address the developing Middle East crisis. Following his departure, Trump posted on his Truth Social platform regarding Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, stating that the United States knows his location and describing him as an "easy target." However, Trump clarified that the US was "not going to take him out (kill!), at least not for now," while expressing concerns about missiles being fired at civilians and American soldiers. The president also wrote "UNCONDITIONAL SURRENDER!" on the platform and claimed the US had "complete and total control of the skies over Iran."

Republican Leaders Call for End to Trump-Musk Dispute

Republican officials are expressing concern over the public feud between President Donald Trump and Elon Musk, with party leaders urging both men to resolve their differences amid fears the conflict could impact legislative priorities. The dispute between the president and the world's richest man has raised questions about potential effects on Republican tax and border spending legislation, which Trump has promoted but Musk has criticized. Vice President JD Vance characterized Musk's actions as a "huge mistake" in going after Trump. In a Friday interview following the public confrontation, Vance described Musk as an "emotional guy" who became frustrated while expressing hope for reconciliation. "I hope that eventually Elon comes back into the fold. Maybe that's not possible now because he's gone so nuclear," Vance stated. The vice president's remarks reflect broader Republican concerns about the rift between two figures who […]

House Republicans Face Challenges with Trump Tax Cuts and Medicaid Funding

Republican lawmakers in Congress are confronting their biggest challenge of Donald Trump's presidency this week: reconciling internal divisions over proposed cuts to Medicaid and popular green energy initiatives to fund a landmark tax-cut bill they hope to enact by June. Following a two-week recess marked by some heated constituent encounters, House Republicans are set to begin debating and voting on segments of Trump's agenda legislation that would also fund his immigration crackdown while boosting fossil fuel production and military spending. "We'd like to have it on the president's desk by June," House Majority Leader Steve Scalise, the chamber's No. 2 Republican, told Reuters. "It's going to be a very transparent process, where committees will be holding their hearings and mark-ups in public view." Scalise emphasized that Republicans' top priority is extending provisions of Trump's 2017 Tax Cuts & Jobs Act […]

Trump Administration Charts Course for Next Phase After Eventful First 100 Days

President Donald Trump's administration plans to highlight accomplishments from his first 100 days in office this week while outlining priorities for the coming months with an emphasis on trade negotiations and peace initiatives, according to White House officials. Following a period of rapid policy implementation that has energized supporters and alarmed critics, one official indicated that Trump has additional significant changes planned, referring to them as "torpedoes" without providing specific details. Since his January 20 inauguration, Trump has implemented substantial changes across domestic and foreign policy spheres. His administration has introduced widespread tariffs affecting the global economic system, reduced federal government staffing, and eliminated diversity programs in both public and private sectors. The president has also taken confrontational stances toward academic institutions, law firms, and judicial bodies. Trump is scheduled to travel to Michigan for a rally commemorating the 100-day […]

Trump’s Second Term Brings Significant Shifts to Global Relations

In the first 100 days since President Donald Trump returned to office, his administration has implemented substantial changes to America's approach to global affairs, departing from long-established international norms and relationships. The president has initiated a wide-ranging tariff policy affecting numerous trading partners, reduced U.S. foreign aid, expressed skepticism toward NATO allies, and taken a markedly different stance on Russia's war in Ukraine. His rhetoric has included comments about annexing Greenland, retaking the Panama Canal, and suggesting Canada could become the 51st state. "Trump is much more radical now than he was eight years ago," observed Elliott Abrams, a conservative who served in the Trump administration during his first term after working under Presidents Reagan and Bush. "I have been surprised." Critics argue that the "America First" agenda has strained relationships with traditional allies while potentially emboldening adversaries. Some governments […]
