If enacted, the bill would mandate lawmakers to divest individual stock holdings within 180 days, allowing investments only in diversified mutual funds, ETFs, or U.S. Treasury bonds

This development raises questions about the future of the trade war and whether a resolution is imminent.

These developments have led to increased economic uncertainty and volatility in financial markets.President Trump has acknowledged the economic challenges, stating that the country is in a “period of transition” as his administration seeks to “bring wealth back to America.” He has also suggested that economic hardships may be necessary to rebuild the country, characterizing market fluctuations as temporary.

In recent discussions, political commentator Bill O’Reilly has suggested that Governor Gavin Newsom’s active opposition to President Donald Trump could lead to significant political repercussions.

In a significant shift in media engagement, the White House has announced that podcasters, social media influencers, and content creators are now eligible to apply for press credentials. This initiative aims to adapt to the evolving media landscape and reach younger audiences who consume news through non-traditional platforms. Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt emphasized the administration’s commitment to engaging with both traditional and new media, citing a decline in public trust in mass media. The briefing room will now include seats for new media voices, and the administration encourages independent journalists to apply for credentials. This approach reflects the administration’s strategy to broaden its communication channels and ensure diverse media representation in White House press coverage. _________________________________ LIVE STREAM: Weekdays @ 6pm ET Join us live every Monday to Friday at 6 PM Eastern Time as we dive into current events, politics, business, comedy, and pop culture! _________________________________ FOLLOW: Instagram: @Thedonshahan https://www.instagram.com/thedonshahan/ X/Twitter: @TheDonShahan https://x.com/TheDonShahan TikTok: @TheDonShahan https://www.tiktok.com/@thedonshahan #usnews #comedypodcast #whitehousepresssecretary #Karolineleavitt
