Live from NPR News in Washington, I'm Shea Stephens. Hours after pausing new tariffs on products from Mexico, President Trump announced a 30-day pause on the 25% tariffs that the U.S. was going to impose on Canada. As NPR's Deepa Shivaram reports, the move followed a phone call between Trump and Canadian Prime Minister Trudeau.
President Trump posted on his social media platform that the tariffs on Canada, which were supposed to go into effect on Tuesday, would be paused to see if an economic deal between the two countries could be reached.
Trudeau also shared the news on social media and said Canada would invest $1.3 billion to enforce the U.S.-Canada border to help stop the flow of fentanyl, though only a tiny percentage of fentanyl that comes to the U.S. is through the northern border. Tariffs on Mexico were also given a 30-day pause.
after Mexican leader Claudia Sheinbaum and Trump spoke and Mexico agreed to beef up security on the southern border. Deepa Shivaram, NPR News, the White House.
Federal law enforcement groups are urging Congress to stop a possible purge at the FBI. As NPR's Kerry Johnson reports, the job dismissals could disrupt the Bureau's work.
The group say the possible termination of thousands of FBI agents who worked on Capitol riot cases is creating a dangerous distraction. Losing even some of those federal agents could imperil ongoing investigations and undermine the FBI's ability to support local authorities. The law enforcement groups say any review of agents should follow normal policy and give those agents due process.
The FBI has been in turmoil since new temporary leaders in the Justice Department signaled they may want to fire agents who worked on sensitive cases. Carrie Johnson, NPR News, Washington.
Venezuelan Americans are calling the Trump administration's policy change on temporary protective status, or TPS, a betrayal. From Miami, NPR's Greg Allen reports that the administration is proposing to end protections that shielded hundreds of thousands of Venezuelans from deportation.
