Liberty Nation News: Migrants Told to Self-Deport or Pay Hefty Fines - Liberty Nation News
President Trump’s administration is urging illegal migrants to self-deport or face daily fines of $998 and potential confiscation of property. Using a 1996 law, the administration warns that fines can accumulate retroactively for up to five years, potentially exceeding $1 million per individual.
Migrants are encouraged to use the newly branded CBP Home app for self-deportation, which offers benefits such as avoiding fines, retaining earnings, and protecting future immigration eligibility. Failure to comply may lead to jail time and further financial penalties.

The Western Journal: China Hit with Nasty Shock Minutes After Trump Tariff Hike as Order Cancellations Begin Pouring In
President Trump's recent tariff hike on Chinese goods has sent shockwaves through Chinese factories reliant on exports. With tariffs soaring to 125%, many U.S. companies are canceling orders, leading to significant reductions in shipments from China.
This move aims to recalibrate America's economic ties with China, addressing concerns over unfair trade practices. While it may inflict short-term pain, the long-term goal is to establish a more equitable relationship.
Forbes: Trump Approval Rating Tracker: Three Post-Tariff Surveys Show Decline
President Trump's net approval rating has declined following his recent tariff announcement, with new polls indicating that a majority of Americans believe these tariffs will negatively impact the U.S. economy both short- and long-term. Disapproval ratings have remained high, with various surveys showing a significant portion of voters disapproving of his job performance.
The tariffs, which include a 10% tax on all U.S. trading partners, have stirred recession fears and prompted backlash even from some of Trump's business allies. While his average approval rating during this term is slightly higher than during his first, concerns over his handling of trade and economic policies persist among voters.
Le Monde: Trump's reciprocity: A concept rooted in a tradition hostile to free trade
Donald Trump advocates for trade reciprocity, arguing that its absence leads to chronic U.S. trade deficits. Historically, reciprocity has served both protective and liberal trade purposes, appearing in various treaties since the 18th century.
Critics view the modern emphasis on reciprocity as a protectionist approach, reminiscent of 19th-century mercantilist ideology, which equates trade deficits with defeat. This perspective challenges the principles of free trade, favoring "fair trade" instead.

The Western Journal: Watch: Anderson Cooper Gets Woman's Pronouns 'Wrong,' Pays the Price on Live TV
Anderson Cooper faced backlash after misgendering a civil rights attorney during a town hall with Bernie Sanders. The attorney corrected him, stating their pronouns were "they/them," leading to a flurry of reactions online, with some calling for Cooper's cancellation.

The commentary suggests that the left's emphasis on pronoun usage reflects a broader cultural shift that some view as detrimental.

Fox News: Wisconsin education department pushes back on Trump administration DEI certification demands
The Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction (WDPI) is at risk of losing federal funding due to its response to a Trump administration certification requirement regarding diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) programs. The U.S. Department of Education has mandated K-12 schools to certify compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act to continue receiving federal financial assistance, citing concerns over discrimination in DEI programs.
WDPI has expressed concerns about the legality and redundancy of the certification request and has opted not to collect certifications from local education agencies until it receives further clarification from the U.S. Department of Education. Similarly, the New York State Education Department has indicated it will not comply with the certification request, arguing it has already met its obligations under Title VI.
