Relief for Trump as Appeals Court restores tariffs within 24 hours of block

Relief for Trump as Appeals Court restores tariffs within 24 hours of block

A US appeals court has reinstated President Donald Trump’s sweeping tariffs—just one day after a trade court ordered them to be blocked. The decision came from the Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit in Washington, but the judges gave no explanation for their ruling. White House trade adviser Peter Navarro confirmed that the tariffs will stay in place for now. However, the White House also said that upcoming trade talks with major partners are still on track and won`t be affected. On Wednesday, the court’s earlier decision to block the tariffs briefly gave financial markets a boost. But after Thursday’s reversal, Wall Street was left uncertain again. Analysts say there’s still a lot of confusion about what will happen next with the tariffs. According to a Reuters report, Trump’s tariff policies have already cost businesses over $34 billion—due to lost sales and rising costs.... [Read More]

US urges Russia to accept ceasefire deal, warns it's their best chance for peace

US urges Russia to accept ceasefire deal, warns it's their best chance for peace

The United States of America told the United Nations Security Council on Thursday that it has offered a ceasefire plan to end the war in Ukraine, and that this is the best deal Russia is likely to get. US Acting Deputy Ambassador John Kelley said Russian President Vladimir Putin should accept the offer. "If Russia chooses to keep fighting this terrible war, the U.S. may stop trying to help negotiate peace," Kelley warned. "This deal is Russia’s best chance, and President Putin should agree to it." President Donald Trump, who began his second term in January, promised to quickly end the war in Ukraine. As part of that effort, the U.S. proposed an immediate, unconditional ceasefire. Ukraine agreed to it, but is waiting for Russia to do the same. Since then, the U.S. has been pushing Russia to accept the plan.... [Read More]

Who is going to be the next DOGE leader? White House gives major hint

Who is going to be the next DOGE leader? White House gives major hint

On Thursday, the White House said that members of former President Donald Trump’s cabinet are working with staff from the Department of Government Efficiency at different federal agencies to support ongoing efforts. Press secretary Karoline Leavitt told reporters that cabinet secretaries have been closely collaborating with Elon Musk and will continue working with the political appointees—nicknamed “Doge employees”—who joined these agencies. Elon Musk recently distanced himself from the Trump administration, leading investors to hope he’ll now focus more on his businesses. Tesla is facing falling sales, and SpaceX’s latest rocket launch didn’t meet expectations. Musk had also led the controversial Department of Government Efficiency, which was created to reduce government spending.... [Read More]
