NEW YORK (AP) — Volley after volley of tariffs — and at times on-again, off-again trade actions — have put companies around the world on edge. And a handful of major retailers have already raised prices across the U.S., or warned of future hikes.President Donald Trump has slapped new import taxes on nearly all of America’s trading partners and a range of sector-specific goods in recent months — all while some targeted countries, notably China, have responded with their own retaliatory duties. While many of the steepest tariffs have since been paused or reduced, scores of other remaining levies have…
WASHINGTON — The Supreme Court on Thursday weighs whether to allow President Donald Trump’s radical reinterpretation of the Constitution’s guarantee of birthright citizenship to go into effect, at least in part, while litigation continues. In an unusual move, the court is hearing oral arguments on a series of Trump administration emergency requests seeking to limit the scope of nationwide injunctions that blocked the plan almost as soon as it was announced in January.A decision siding with the administration would not only provide a boost to Trump’s birthright citizenship proposal but would also help the administration implement other policies via executive…

CNN — A controversial new American-backed organization, the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF), has announced it will begin delivering aid to the besieged territory within two weeks and says it has Israel’s approval. The move would provide some relief for Gazans facing acute hunger from 19 months of war and a two-and-half month Israeli blockade of all food, water, medical and humanitarian supplies. More than half of Gaza’s population faces “emergency” or “catastrophic” levels of hunger, according to a UN-backed panel considered an authority on the matter. But the foundation has come under significant criticism from top humanitarian officials, who warn…
The jury next saw an email Cassie Ventura sent to Sean “Diddy” Combs in October 2007, a few weeks after her 21st birthday party. Ventura testified that the email demonstrates open communication between her and Combs, but said it was “usually a one-way street.” She said that she would send messages being open about her feelings more often than he would. In the email, Ventura wrote: “We’ve only really had one week of each other just together and I can say that it’s been the best and worst.” She wrote about the things she liked about Combs and dreaming of…

There was a late drama in the Eredivisie on Wednesday night as 10-player Groningen scored in the 99th minute to draw 2-2 with Ajax, a result that let PSV Eindhoven overtake them and go top of the table ahead of Sunday’s final round of games.Ajax had been nine points clear of PSV in the title race with just five games to go, meaning they required just six points from their final five games to clinch a 37th Dutch title. However, they have since stumbled badly, dropping 10 points – including two heavy losses – to allow Peter Bosz’s side to…
President Donald Trump met Wednesday with Syria’s new leader, Ahmed al-Sharaa, in an effort to forge a new relationship with the country, the first time a U.S. president has met with its leader in decades. But what kind of relationship the U.S. will have with a person they once called an Al-Qaeda terrorist remains unclear. “We’re living in a very unusual world where suddenly people who professed hatred of the West and in particular the United States are now being accepted as potential allies and partners,” said Sajjan Gohel, International Security Director at the Asia Pacific Foundation.Al-Sharaa, whose nom de guerre is Abu Mohammad al-Julani, has long been on…
