President Donald Trump allowed a 25% tariff on Mexican goods to take effect and the president of Mexico vowed to impose retaliatory duties within days. Mexico sued Smith & Wesson and six other major US gun makers in 2021 for $10 billion…
(CNN) — From fresh avocados to dairy products, Americans rely heavily on their neighbors for everyday grocery items. The White House confirmed Monday that President Donald Trump will impose tariffs on goods from Mexico and Canada, two of America’s largest suppliers of agricultural products, on Tuesday. Trump had previously proposed tariffs on all goods for the two countries at 25%, but it’s unclear if the White House remains committed to that level. If tariffs hit agricultural goods, food prices could spike for the average shopper — a top concern for many American families. The two countries supply a significant share…

CNN — Serbia’s parliament descended into chaos on Tuesday as opposition lawmakers threw smoke grenades and tear gas inside the chamber to protest against the government and support demonstrating students.

CNN — Chief Justice John Roberts first arrived at the Supreme Court in 1980, as a law clerk to then-Associate Justice William Rehnquist, for what would be a formative year in his judicial calling. The two men were destined for a position that only 17 jurists in American history have held. Rehnquist became chief justice in 1986, and Roberts succeeded him when he died in 2005. As the now-public papers in Rehnquist’s archive demonstrate, Roberts witnessed his mentor moving strategically behind the scenes. Rehnquist weakened liberal precedents where he could and planted seeds for today’s conservatism. Coincidentally, some of the…

CNN — Donald Trump just took the biggest gamble of his young second presidency. His hammer-blow 25% tariffs against Canada and Mexico that hit at midnight dealt a fresh shock to an economy showing alarming signs of slowing growth and rising inflation – a perilous mix for any president. Trump also doubled an additional tariff on all Chinese imports to 20%, in a trio of decisions that sent stocks – a cherished metric of his own performance – tumbling. The timing was inauspicious, before Trump makes a joint address to Congress Tuesday evening that will be watched by a nation…
