Fox News: Wisconsin governor rejects GOP draft bill requiring local law enforcement to help ICE agents: 'A non-starter'
Wisconsin Governor Tony Evers has rejected Republican proposals requiring local law enforcement to assist federal immigration officers in detaining illegal immigrants. The GOP's draft legislation would mandate sheriffs to verify citizenship status and report non-citizens to the Department of Homeland Security, with penalties for non-compliance.
Evers criticized the bill as a threat to local law enforcement and public safety, emphasizing the need for collaboration rather than budget cuts. Republican lawmakers argue that the bill is necessary for community safety, claiming Evers has prematurely dismissed it without reviewing the details.

Fox News: The Speaker’s Lobby: A palpably unfair act
Referee Shawn Hochuli recently highlighted a little-known NFL rule that could lead to automatic touchdowns for the Philadelphia Eagles if the Washington Commanders continued to commit penalties. This situation drew a parallel to the political landscape, where the executive branch's control over spending has come under scrutiny, particularly regarding President Trump's freeze on federal funds.
The controversy centers on the constitutional powers of Congress versus the executive branch, with Democrats expressing concern over potential overreach. As the government faces a funding deadline, trust between parties is low, and the implications of these actions may lead to significant political battles ahead.

Donald Trump's new trade tariffs on Canada and Mexico, set at 25%, have drawn criticism for being contradictory and potentially harmful to American consumers and businesses. Professor David Dunn warns that these tariffs could disrupt vital supply chains, particularly in the oil and automotive sectors, leading to inflation and reduced competitiveness.
Dunn argues that Trump's approach could exacerbate immigration issues by increasing unemployment in Mexico, countering his stated goals. He suggests that existing trade agreements are more effective for managing immigration and calls for domestic solutions rather than aggressive trade tactics.
