Trump Delays Mexico and Canada Tariffs on Some Goods for a Month.

President Donald J. Trump announced on Thursday a delay in implementing 25 percent tariffs on some Mexican and Canadian goods covered under the United States–Mexico–Canada Agreement (USMCA) for one month. Previously, Trump had delayed entirely the implementation of the 25 percent tariff—originally slated to be imposed at the start of February.

“After speaking with President Claudia Sheinbaum of Mexico, I have agreed that Mexico will not be required to pay Tariffs on anything that falls under the USMCA Agreement. This Agreement is until April 2nd,” President Trump wrote in a post on Truth Social announcing the partial delay.

He added: “I did this as an accommodation and out of respect for President Sheinbaum. Our relationship has been a very good one, and we are working hard together on the Border, both in terms of stopping Illegal Aliens from entering the United States and, likewise, stopping Fentanyl. Thank you to President Sheinbaum for your hard work and cooperation!”

Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau noted that Canada anticipates ongoing trade tensions with the U.S. “The broader month-long pause aligns with some of the conversations that we have been having with administration officials,” Trudeau stated. He acknowledged the gesture as a “promising sign,” though he added, “the tariffs remain in place and therefore our response will remain in place.”

Trump Hails $23 Billion Panama Canal Deal.

Investment giant BlackRock has led a $23 billion deal to secure two ports along the Panama Canal. President Donald J. Trump, who has alluded to “demand[ing] that the Panama Canal be returned to us, in full, quickly and without question, mentioned the deal earlier this week during his speech before Congress.

The consortium, led by BlackRock, alongside Global Infrastructure Partners and Terminal Investment Limited, acquired the Balboa and Cristobal ports in a transaction originally managed by CK Hutchison Holdings of Hong Kong.

During his speech, Trump described the deal as a U.S. victory, particularly over the Chinese Communist Party (CCP). “The Panama Canal was built by Americans for Americans,” he reminded listeners, noting that the U.S. is a principal user of the canal, accounting for nearly 70 percent of its traffic.

This development follows increased U.S. diplomatic efforts to limit Chinese economic activities in global infrastructure. Secretary of State Marco Rubio visited Panama earlier this year to promote distancing from Beijing.

Recently, Panama exited China’s Belt and Road Initiative, a decision taken amidst rising U.S. concerns regarding economic influence in the region.

However, the transaction is under scrutiny, with Panama’s attorney general labeling the port contracts “unconstitutional.” An audit is presently in progress. Approval from Panama’s government is pending for the sale. The deal excludes interests in facilities located in China.

Man Arrested Over Threats to Assassinate Trump, Attack New York with Missiles.

A man in Florida has been arrested after making bizarre phone calls to police in which he made threats against the life of President Donald J. Trump. Some of the threats also reportedly included the man saying he would launch missiles at New York City as well.

Justin Blaxton made repeated phone calls to police in Palm Beach, Florida, the location of President Trump’s Mar-a-Lago home. “I need a ride to the airport to be taken to The White House so I can assassinate the president,” he said in one call to police.

In another exchange, Blaxton told police to “tell the FBI I’m a mass murderer” and referred to himself as a “Confederate soldier,” saying “I’m looking to get my revenge.”

Blaxton appeared in court on Wednesday, March 5, and is facing charges including making false 911 calls and threatening to discharge an explosive device.

The arrest comes just months after former Ukraine recruiter Ryan Routh attempted to assassinate President Trump in Palm Beach while the President was playing golf. Secret service agents managed to detect Routh before he could take any action.

In January, another Ukraine recruiter, Matthew Livelsberger, blew up a Tesla Cybertruck outside Trump Tower in Las Vegas. Like Ryan Routh, Livelsberger attempted to recruit foreign nationals to help Ukraine in its conflict with Russia.

Despite Zelensky’s Backpedal, Ukraine’s Top Diplomats Are Still Sniping at Trump in Public.

One of Ukraine’s top diplomats is attacking President Donald J. Trump and his administration, claiming Trump may destroy the NATO military alliance. Ukraine’s ambassador to the United Kingdom, Valerii Zaluzhnyi, suggested the Trump administration could undermine the alleged international rules-based order.

Speaking at a conference hosted by the Chatham House think tank, Zaluzhnyi remarked that the United States’ approach may destabilize NATO, positioning Europe as a possible target for Russian President Vladimir Putin. Additionally, Zaluzhnyi claimed that the U.S. is inadvertently aiding in the deconstruction of the current world order by engaging in negotiations with Russia, a nation he described as being “headed by a war criminal.”

The ambassador assumed his diplomatic role in London in 2024 after President Volodymyr Zelensky fired him as commander-in-chief of Ukraine’s armed forces. Consequently, his firing came after an alleged conflict with Zelensky over the military draft.

The comments come after President Zelensky’s disrespectful behavior in the Oval Office, in which he started a row with Vice President J.D. Vance in front of the media. After getting kicked out of the White House,  Zelensky folded, saying he was ready to work “under” President Trump.

Aid from the U.S. to Ukraine has been paused following the White House row, including a halt to intelligence sharing with Russia and cyber operations against Russia.

Hunter Biden Tells Judge He’s Too Poor to Keep Suing Over His Laptop.

Hunter Biden has requested a dismissal of his lawsuit against a former Trump White House aide due to mounting financial difficulties, according to court documents filed in California. In the motion submitted on Wednesday, his legal team stated that financial hardships, compounded by recent wildfires rendering the home he rents in Los Angeles “unlivable,” have placed him “millions of dollars” in debt.

The motion indicates the former First Son’s income has significantly decreased, leading to an inability to sustain litigation against Garrett Ziegler, who previously worked with Trump’s trade adviser, Peter Navarro. Biden initially filed the lawsuit in 2023, accusing Ziegler of unlawfully accessing and disseminating data from his infamous “laptop from hell.”

The National Pulse broke several exclusives based on information gleaned from the laptop, including Hunter Biden’s investments in a firm isolating deadly pathogens in Ukrainian laboratories and that firm’s partnership with Peter Daszak’s EcoHealth Alliance, which is linked to the Wuhan, China laboratory believed to be responsible for the COVID-19 pandemic.

Biden’s attorneys highlighted decreasing revenue from Biden’s art and book sales as factors contributing to the financial strain. He reported that art sales plummeted, with only one piece sold for $36,000 after averaging $54,481.48 for 27 pieces previously. Book sales of his memoir, Beautiful Things, have also declined significantly, with only 1,100 copies sold in a recent six-month period compared to 3,161 in the preceding six months.

Biden’s legal efforts are further complicated by ongoing litigation with John Paul Mac Isaac, a Delaware computer repair shop owner, over the initial leak of his laptop data. In the recent filing, Biden noted his need to evaluate each legal matter on a “case-by-case basis” due to financial constraints.

CNN Caught Writing Fake ‘Fact Check’ on Trump’s Transgender Mice Claim.

CNN was forced to correct their “fact-check” after the outlet claimed President Donald J. Trump “falsely” stated that $8 million in tax dollars were used to study making mice transgender.

Back up: During President Trump’s address to Congress on Tuesday, he rattled off a list of ways the federal government was wasting money, including “Eight million dollars for making mice transgender. This is real.”

CNN fact-check: Shortly after his speech, CNN published a fact-check article, which said Trump “falsely claimed” the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) found $8 million for turning mice transgender.

  • The article suggested Trump was erroneously referring to a $477,121 project that gave monkeys estrogen for HIV testing.

The truth: The White House clapped back, providing a fact sheet with six studies funded by the Biden regime’s National Institutes of Health (NIH) “for making mice transgender” that totaled $8,290,053.

  • $3.1 million was spent to determine how to “treat and prevent asthma in cis and transgender women.”
  • $1.2 million was spent to learn how testosterone affects “transgender males” reproductive systems

CNN’s walk-back: The outlet quietly corrected its article, admitting Trump’s statement was “incorrectly characterized as false.”

The last word goes to the Trump White House’s rapid response account on X, which wrote:

  • “The Fake News losers at CNN tried to fact check President Trump… but President Trump was right (as usual).”

Chicago Mayor Admits He Favors Illegals Over Americans.

A Republican lawmaker has forced Chicago’s leftist mayor to admit he not only supports giving illegals the right to vote in local elections but wants to fund their abortions and more. Representative Brandon Gill (R-TX) grilled Mayor Brandon Johnson during a congressional hearing this week.

Claiming that Chicago is a “welcoming city,” Mayor Johnson first admitted to supporting driver’s licenses for illegals. Driver’s licenses have been used in the past by illegals to register to vote in poorly vetted federal elections, despite them being ineligible as non-citizens.

Representative Gill went on to ask if Mayor Johnson supports healthcare for illegals, free or reduced college, and taxpayer-funded abortions for illegals. Gill took all of Johnson’s answers to mean ‘Yes,’ which Johnson did not dispute. Such support is not readily available to many Americans.

The exchange comes after a long history of support for illegals from Johnson, who once attempted to get former President Joe Biden to grant work permits to half a million illegal aliens. Last year, it was revealed that Chicago had spent nearly $300 million on over 38,000 migrants to house them, feed them, and pay for their medical care.

Homelessness in Chicago has surged amid the city’s migrant crisis, increasing by 200 percent from 2023 to 2024.

Viewers Call for MSNBC’s Nicolle Wallace to Be Fired for ‘Repulsive’ Comments About Boy with Brain Cancer.

MSNBC’s Nicolle Wallace is under fire for sullying President Donald J. Trump’s efforts to honor a child suffering from a rare brain and spine cancer during his address to Congress on Tuesday. The controversy centers on Devarjaye “DJ” Daniel, an aspiring law enforcement officer who was made an honorary Secret Service agent during the event.

Wallace turned the gesture into an opportunity to take potshots at the President, saying, “I hope [Daniel] has a long life as a law enforcement officer—but I hope he never has to defend the United States Capitol against Donald Trump’s supporters,” adding, “If he does, I hope he isn’t one of the six who loses his life to suicide.”


Wallace’s remarks have attracted significant backlash, with many calling for her immediate termination. Charlie Kirk of Turning Point USA described her intervention as “genuinely the most repulsive comment I’ve heard in a very long time from anyone on television.”

During President Trump’s speech, Daniel’s battle with cancer was highlighted as a testament to his resilience. Diagnosed in 2018 and given five months to live, Daniel has defied the odds, surviving numerous surgeries.

MSNBC has already sacked other far-left pundits, including Joy Reid, who was terminated from the company and had her show, The ReidOut, canceled.

This Government Agency Just Temporarily Reversed Thousands of Trump Firings.

At least 5,000 U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) are set to be temporarily rehired amid claims their terminations were unlawful. The Merit Systems Protection Board (MSPB) has ordered the USDA to temporarily reinstate over 5,000 employees dismissed since February 13.

The stay issued by MSPB, a quasi-judicial agency that acts as an adjudicative body for federal employee grievances, mandates that the affected employees return to their positions for 45 days, pending further investigation.

These reinstatements involve probationary employees who received standardized termination notices citing performance issues and claiming their continued employment would not benefit the public interest. Many of those dismissed fall under the Trump administration’s broader dismissal of probationary employees across federal agencies, targeting those in their early service years.

The decision follows a petition from the U.S. Office of Special Counsel (OSC), now investigating the probationary employee terminations. The OSC handles allegations of federal employment misconduct.

The reversal runs counter to the agenda of President Donald J. Trump and his Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), which is seeking to streamline the U.S. bureaucracy. According to tech mogul Elon Musk who fronts DOGE, the department has already saved taxpayers billions of dollars.

Trump Admin Offers Mexico, Canada a Lifeline On Tariffs.

President Donald J. Trump may reduce the tariffs imposed on Canada and Mexico, according to a senior official. Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick has noted President Trump’s openness to considering proposals from America’s northern and southern neighbors, suggesting potential relief for certain market sectors.

“He’s considering something more moderate,” Lutnick stated, emphasizing the possibility of partial tariff reductions rather than a complete rollback. The tariffs are part of Trump’s strategy aimed at curbing drug and migrant flows across U.S. borders, with a particular focus on the deadly drug fentanyl, which kills thousands of Americans every year.

In response to the tariffs, President Claudia Sheinbaum of Mexico claimed she would resist the U.S. Sheinbaum confirmed a scheduled call with Trump for Thursday but provided no concrete information on the potential tariff adjustment discussed by Lutnick.

Should the tariffs remain unchanged, she plans for Mexico to introduce retaliatory tariffs on Sunday, coinciding with a demonstration planned in Mexico City.

Canada has also vowed to respond to the tariffs with various measures. Ontario Premier Doug Ford has threatened to remove all American alcohol from publicly owned LBCO stores and impose tariffs on Ontario electricity delivered to the U.S.
