    The Trump administration’s mass deportation raids have nabbed more than 200 known or suspected terrorists since January — including one of India’s “most wanted,” who is accused of masterminding a grenade attack on a cop there and has ties to a US-designated terrorist organization in Pakistan. Since President Trump’s inauguration on Jan. 20, Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers have arrested 219 known or alleged terrorists, marking a 655% increase from the same period last year when 29 such arrests were made under former President Joe Biden, according to new Homeland Security data obtained by The Post. Among the dozens of...

    China is doubling down: China has just announced that they will be pulling back from US private equity investments. Chinese state-backed funds are halting new investments in US PE firms due to government pressure. According to PE executives, funds like China Investment Corporation (CIC) have already begun withdrawing planned commitments. Chinese investors are also avoiding US-linked deals, even when managed by non-US based PE funds. Just 24 hours ago, China warned they would retaliate against countries that cooperate with the US in ways that compromise their interests. It's very clear what's happening here: China is seeking to isolate the US...

    U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) Commissioner Martin Makary announced a new policy directive limiting employees of companies the agency regulates, such as pharmaceutical companies, from serving as official members of FDA advisory committees. “While the FDA should be partnering with industry to ensure a user-friendly review process, the scientific evaluation of new products should be independent,” Makary said. “Industry employees are welcome to attend FDA advisory committee meetings, along with the rest of the American public, but having industry employees serve as official members of FDA advisory committee members represents a cozy relationship that is concerning to many Americans,”...

    CNBC reported: About 20,000 Internal Revenue Service employees have expressed interest in accepting the Trump administration’s latest deferred resignation offer, a source familiar with the matter told CNBC on Tuesday. The agency, which grew to more than 102,000 workers in 2024, would shrink by roughly 20% if all of those staffers ultimately take the buyout offer. […] The looming IRS exodus was revealed on the day of the deadline for Americans to file their income tax returns.

    When his camera stopped working on his iPhone recently, New Yorker Richard Medina didn't waste any time. With the threat of tariff-fuelled price hikes on smartphones bearing down, he quickly called his phone company for a new one. "I said, 'We've got to switch this out now,'" the 43-year-old recalled. "Let's take care of it." The move was a sign of the pressure rising across the US, where households are being buffeted by what could be staggering price rises, and even possible shortages triggered by the sweeping tariffs that US President Donald Trump announced this month. Some are trying to...

    VIDEOOn the 80th day of President Trump's second term, the Liberal Pink Hat Lady fell into a deep deep depression as you can see here. She even think this all can't be real because we are probably living in The Matrix. Her only solace is her fervent prayer that "IT" happens. And if you are still clueless about what "IT" means then check the comments on one of the many #WhenItHappens videos on TikTok to clear up any confusion over it. Oh, and hopefully the Secret Service is also checking those "When It Happens" videos.

    After DOGE, the border shutdown, and the tariff and trade debacle, it's pretty obvious that President Trump doesn't mess around. So now he's announced that sanctuary cities are a target for federal defunding: No more Sanctuary Cities! They protect the Criminals, not the Victims. They are disgracing our Country, and are being mocked all over the World. Working on papers to withhold all Federal Funding for any City or State that allows these Death Traps to exist!!!

    Thousands of illegal immigrants facing potential involuntary removal from the U.S. have instead opted to self-deport through an app provided by the U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP). The number of immigrants who have opted to self-deport over the last month using the CBP Home app is over 5,000, according to Department of Homeland Security (DHS) data shared with Fox News Digital. The self-deportations come as the Trump administration has ramped up a messaging campaign aimed at encouraging illegal immigrants to leave the country voluntarily, most recently releasing a flyer addressed to “illegal aliens” that threatens new fines for those...

    The federal government has frozen over $1 billion in funding for Cornell, according to members of the Trump administration. This comes amid an ongoing investigation by the U.S. Department of Education’s Office for Civil Rights.

The Trump administration also froze $790 million in funding for Northwestern, according to The New York Times. ...

    President Donald Trump’s Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), led by Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., has fired Anthony Fauci’s wife, Christine Grady, from her post heading up the National Institutes of Health Clinical Centers’ bioethics department, according to reports. Kennedy reportedly fired Grady on Tuesday, according to Politico, which spoke to several individuals familiar with the matter. Further, Kennedy is also said to have “reassigned” a handful of Fauci’s colleagues. Fauci, who led the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases and served as a medical adviser to the White House during the pandemic, has come under fire...
  • Trump’s New Protectionist Age. Blowing up the world trading system has consequences that the President isn’t advertising.

    Wall Street Journal ^ | April 2, 2025 | WSJ Editorial Board
    President Trump unveiled his new “liberation day” tariffs on Wednesday, and they are another large step toward a new old era of trade protectionism. Assuming the policy sticks—and we hope it doesn’t—the effort amounts to an attempt to remake the U.S. economy and the world trading system. All details aren’t clear as we write this, but Mr. Trump’s tariffs look “reciprocal” in name only. First he’s hitting every nation in the world with a 10% “baseline” tariff to sell in the U.S. market. For those he calls “bad actors,” he’s adding up the country’s tariff rate on U.S. goods, plus...

    Companies are beginning to move production to the United States to avoid tariffs. “President Trump’s economic polices are simple: if you invest in and create jobs in America, you’ll be rewarded. We’ll lower regulations and reduce taxes,” Vice President J.D. Vance posted online. “But if you build outside of the United States, you’re on your own.” Hyundai announced a massive $20 billion investment in the United States with plans to open plants in Georgia and Alabama. Around $5.8 million will go towards an updated steel plant that is expected to employ over 1,400 people. Hyundai believes it will soon produce...

    ​Several countries have announced plans to reduce or eliminate tariffs on U.S. imports in response to President Donald Trump’s “reciprocal tariffs” policy, set to take effect on April 2, 2025. This policy aims to match the tariffs that other nations impose on U.S. products. The White House released a detailed chart showing how badly many countries have been ripping off American workers, charging high tariffs on U.S. goods while benefiting from America’s generosity in return.

Countries such as Canada and Mexico have already voiced their readiness to counteract, while India, Japan, and China seek diplomatic routes to soften the blow and protect their economic interests.

    California's formerly overrun border with Mexico is now virtually empty just months after Donald Trump's election, images show. Aid workers have begun packing up after weeks without seeing any migrants, SF Gate reports. 'To say there has been a dramatic change would be an understatement,' Jeffrey Stalnaker, acting chief patrol agent of the San Diego sector, said. Not long ago, the stretch along southern California was dealing with a record number crossings. December 2024 saw a record 301,981 people caught crossing the border illegally. The number of migrants caught crossing illegally stayed well above 200,000-a-month for much of Biden's time...
