Though President Trump put a 90-day pause on the reciprocal tariffs he rolled out on Liberation Day, world leaders are coming to the table for trade talks -- with the White House preparing to host South Korean leaders later this week. Despite the freeze, the administration remains tough on China, keeping 145% tariffs in place on most Chinese imports.Â

All Star Panel: Constitutional Concerns Over Deportation Proposals
The Trump Administration is receiving push back from Democrats for the deportation of a Maryland man they claim was wrongfully sent to an El Salvadoran prison. This case has garnered a lot of attention in Washington, as multiple courts and political jargon have added to the complexities of the case. Critics of the Trump Administration are calling this a constitutional crisis, while others welcome this fight as an immigration mandate. Alongside this matter, there is a concern on Capital Hill that President Trump’s global tariffs may affect the economy dramatically, as well as political careers following midterms.Â
Meanwhile, NVIDIA has agreed to invest $500 billion in the United States over the next four years, marking a major win for the Trump economic agenda and the AI race against China.Â
To discuss The Trump Administration’s limitations on foreign policy and more, we bring in Chad Pergram FOX News Senior Congressional Correspondent, Washington Bureau Chief of USA Today Susan Page, and Byron York Chief Political Correspondent for the Washington Examiner.
