Trump unlocks 90-day tariff relief on ground beef to cut grocery prices

President Donald Trump announced a 90-day plan to temporarily lift out-of-quota tariffs on up to 300,000 metric tons of beef intended for ground-beef production, allowing tariff-free imports and promising prices about 25% below current market levels; he argues this will ease prices while domestic beef herds rebuild, blaming Biden for high beef costs and highlighting GOP cost-of-living concerns ahead of the midterms. The move follows prior steps to boost supply via imports from Argentina and live cattle shipments from Mexico as beef prices remained near record highs.

Surviving Biden’s Green Push: About $600B of Energy Funds Remain Unspent

POLITICO’s analysis shows roughly $600 billion of Biden-era climate and infrastructure funding—grants, contracts, and direct spending—still available to spend, despite Trump’s rollback of about $540 billion in clean-energy tax incentives; with court battles and political fights ongoing, the fate of these funds remains uncertain and could shape jobs, energy costs, and future tech leadership.

Declassified docs label top GOP figures as Russian disinformation 'conduits' in Biden probe push

Declassified docs label top GOP figures as Russian disinformation 'conduits' in Biden probe push

Newly declassified White House task-force documents describe an FBI counterintelligence operation codenamed Round River, which labeled several leading Republicans (e.g., Bill Barr, Mike Pompeo, Lindsey Graham) as conduits for Russian disinformation in their push to investigate the Bidens and Ukraine ties. The files also mark other figures like George Soros and Hillary Clinton as disinformation targets. The ODNI says the FITF did not verify the claims, and the operation is under FBI review after being ended by a former DNI official; White House sources say the effort aimed to neutralize narratives and influence ongoing investigations by focusing on a subset of sources.

Judge Allows Release of Biden Memoir Recordings to Heritage

A federal judge ruled that hours of audio from Joe Biden’s 2017 memoir interviews must be released to the Heritage Foundation under FOIA, denying Biden’s bid to block disclosure. The ruling emphasizes public interest and FOIA’s transparency goals, with redactions deemed sufficient. Biden has sought an injunction pending appeal as the dispute over whether the recordings, tied to Hur’s classified-materials inquiry, proceed toward release.

Biden Secures Three-Week Stay on Hur Interview Tapes Release

A federal judge granted a three-week injunction to pause the release of audio recordings and transcripts from Biden’s interviews tied to Special Counsel Hur’s classified‑documents probe, pending an appeal. The stay blocks the DOJ from releasing the materials while the D.C. Circuit reviews Biden’s challenge, after he sought emergency relief claiming public disclosure would end the case and violate privacy protections. The recordings, connected to ghostwriter Mark Zwonitzer and cited in Hur’s report, fueled scrutiny of Biden’s memory and the decision not to prosecute, amid long-running FOIA efforts by the Heritage Foundation to obtain them.
