Trump slams Joe Biden's auto pen use as he signs sweeping nuclear power orders: Live updates

Wall Street tumbled early Friday after explosive new tariff threats by President Donald Trump against the European Union and Apple.

Trump, in social media posts, announced crippling tariffs of 50 percent on Europe starting June 1.

About 30 minutes into trading, the Dow Jones Industrial Average was already down 1 percent.

The S&P 500 shed 1.2 percent and the tech-heavy Nasdaq dropped by 1.5 percent.

Apple shares plunged by 2.5 percent in the wake of a separate threat by Trump to tariff iPhones not made in America.

The president took to Truth Social to accuse the EU of being 'very difficult to deal with' and 'taking advantage' of the United States.

The father of the accused gunman who shot and killed two Israeli staffers at the Capital Jewish Museum was a special guest of a Democratic congressman for President Donald Trump's March address to Congress.

'Eric Rodriguez was our guest during the President's Joint Speech to Congress, but we don't know his family,' a spokesperson for Rep. Jesús 'Chuy' García (D-Ill.) confirmed.

Melania Trump turned to AI to record the audio version of her memoir, using the technology to replicate her voice.

The first lady said she used 'strict supervision' when using the technology, which can have errors in pronunciation and word choice.

While she embraced the new technology for her audiobook, Melania Trump has previously criticized, particularly when it comes to issues like deep fake pornography.

Between a barrage of executive orders, foreign trips and norm-shattering proclamations, Donald Trump has also been busy raking in cash.

The president has amassed a war chest of at least $600 million in political donations heading into the midterm elections, according to three people familiar with the matter.

It's an unprecedented sum in modern politics, particularly for a lame-duck president who is barred by the U.S. Constitution from running again.

Trump is keeping an aggressive fundraising schedule with the ultimate goal of raising $1 billion or more to back his agenda and hold the House and Senate next November, according to the people, who spoke on condition of anonymity to share internal details of the fundraising efforts.

The preoccupation with fundraising might seem highly unusual for a president who was notably averse to dialing for dollars when he first ran.

But according to people familiar with his thinking, it makes perfect sense: By amassing money, Trump amasses power.

Harvard University sued Trump one day after his administration issued a ban on the enrollment of foreign students.

The school said in a court filing Friday that Trump's action will have an 'immediate and devastating effect for Harvard and more than 7,000 visa holders.'

'With the stroke of a pen, the government has sought to erase a quarter of Harvard's student body, international students who contribute significantly to the University and its mission,' Harvard went on.

'Without its international students, Harvard is not Harvard.'

The Department of Homeland Security announced the move on Thursday, saying thousands of current students must transfer to other schools or leave the country.

President Donald Trump's ban on foreign students studying at Harvard could result in Princess Elisabeth of Belgium having to leave the ivy league university.

The 23-year-old future queen just completed her first year of study and may not be able to return to its Boston campus after Trump revoked Harvard's ability to enroll international students on Thursday.

'Princess Elisabeth has just completed her first year. The impact of (the Trump administration's) decision will only become clearer in the coming days/weeks. We are currently investigating the situation,' the Belgian Royal Palace's spokesperson Lore Vandoorne told Reuters.

Harvard University has filed suit against the Trump administration claiming unconstitutional retaliation for ending its ability to enroll foreign students.

‘With the stroke of a pen, the government has sought to erase a quarter of Harvard’s student body, international students who contribute significantly to the University and its mission,’ according to the suit. “Without its international students, Harvard is not Harvard.’

It follows a letter Thursday from Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem Thursday telling the school that ‘effective immediately’ its certification as part of a student visa program was revoked and accused the school of harbouring ‘pro-terrorist agitators’ and ‘promoting antisemitism.

The schools is filing for a temporary restraining order. Nearly half of Harvard’s Kennedy School comes from overseas. Legal experts have said Noem’s order could constitute viewpoint discrimination and was likely to meet a court challenge.

President Donald Trump is fed up with the wave of anti-Semitism being displayed in the U.S. and called for its end in the wake of the murder of two Israeli Embassy workers.

A couple was murdered at an event at the Capital Jewish Museum in Washington, D.C. on Thursday by a gunman shouting 'free Palestine.'

'These horrible D.C. killings, based obviously on antisemitism, must end, NOW!' Trump posted to Truth Social on Wednesday night. 'Hatred and Radicalism have no place in the USA.'

President Donald Trump has been issued a stern warning from the Supreme Court that there is one official who is immune to his wrath and cannot be fired.

In a ruling over a separate court battle about Trump's decision to fire two federal labor board members, SCOTUS reminded the president Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell is effectively untouchable.

Powell, who has drawn the ire of the president several times since he returned to the White House for refusing to lower interest rates, is serving a fixed term set to expire in May 2026.

Kristi Noem told a bunch of illegal migrants they can 'suck it' on Thursday after their lawsuit against the Homeland Security chief was voluntarily dropped.

The suit was filed by the ACLU on behalf of ten detained migrants who the Trump administration were preparing to send to the infamous terrorist detention center in Guantánamo Bay, Cuba.

More than 200 wealthy crypto bros descended on Donald Trump's Washington D.C. golf course on Thursday evening for a private dinner with the president.

They were treated to filet mignon and warm lava cake inside the two-story clubhouse at the golf course, which sits on 800 acres in Northern Virginia on the banks of the Potomac River.

The White House kept the guest list a secret but many of the invited posted about the event on social media, showing off photos of Marine One landing and the massive ballroom filled with guests in black-tie.

President Donald Trump has added another piece of untraditional art to the walls of the White House.

Hanging in the West Wing is an illustration of Trump alongside two other prominent Republicans, Presidents Abraham Lincoln and Ronald Reagan.

A picture of the new addition was posted to X on Thursday by The New York Times' Shawn McCreesh.

The Trump administration has pulled the plug on Harvard's ability to enroll international students in its continuing war with the Ivy League school.

The Department of Homeland Security announced the move on Thursday, saying thousands of current students must transfer to other schools or leave the country.

In a statement they said that Harvard had created an unsafe campus environment by allowing 'anti-American, pro-terrorists agitators' on campus.

I have long ago informed Tim Cook of Apple that I expect their iPhone’s that will be sold in the United States of America will be manufactured and built in the United States, not India, or anyplace else. If that is not the case, a Tariff of at least 25% must be paid by Apple to the U.S. Thank your for your attention to this matter!
