With mass firings, agency shutdowns, and unchecked decisions, critical programs are suffering. Mfume’s resolution seeks transparency into these actions, including the firing of 18 inspector generals.

Trump’s Explosive Attack on the EU. In a scathing attack on the European Union, former U.S. President Donald Trump claimed that the EU was created to take advantage of the United States. Speaking at his first cabinet meeting since returning to the White House, Trump announced new tariffs, confirming a 25% tax on key European imports, including cars. The U.S.-EU trade deficit reached $235.6 billion last year, fueling Trump's push for aggressive trade measures. The European Union rejected his accusations, calling itself "the world's largest free market" and warning of immediate retaliation if tariffs are imposed.
