Trump keeps letting Putin blow through the deadlines he sets without any consequences. And what does Putin get? The red carpet rolled out for him.
It’s time for Congress to act. #SanctionsNOW
As Trump doubles tariffs on Indian imports to 50%, Modi will visit China for the first time in SEVEN years. Pushing partners, allies, and competitors alike into Beijing’s arms is hardly putting 'America First'

The Trump administration’s tariffs and cuts to export programs have abandoned American exporters. Instead of opening markets, U.S. businesses face retaliation and steep disadvantages. Read more below from @amprog Senior Fellow, Ryan Mulholland: americanprogress.org/article/the-tr…
President Trump is opening a migrant detention center in Florida — dubbed “Alligator Alcatraz” — where thousands of migrants will be held amid deadly terrain. In his remarks, he joked about escapees outrunning alligators. This isn’t immigration enforcement — it’s cruelty.
Yesterday marked the official end of @USAID -- just days after @TheLancet found that the organization saved 92M lives and could cost more than 14M lives by 2030. One of the most consequential -- and devastating -- decisions by the administration to date. politico.com/news/2025/06/3…
DeSantis and Trump reunite at 'Alligator Alcatraz': The president came to Florida to tour a pop-up tent and trailer immigration detention center that’s expected to house thousands of detainees in the middle of the Everglades. ow.ly/vmys50WjggL
Ahead of the G7 summit, @amprog lays out 5 urgent global priorities -- from Ukraine to Gaza to climate. With U.S. leadership absent, and the administration's disruptive actions, G7 countries must step up to the challenge and address global priorities: americanprogress.org/article/as-tru…

Amid Trump’s dismantling of US international media, Xi and Putin are deepening propaganda coordination, and Beijing is boosting its media presence in Africa and seeking greater influence on Facebook—which is banned in China. This is only the beginning: americanprogress.org/article/trump-…
Helpful explainer on latest China tariff news:
Trump caved and got zero in return
