Trump slaps tariffs on Canada, Mexico, China, risking higher prices for U.S. consumers.

ICE has been given authority to raid schools and churches by Pres. Trump. @rweingarten.bsky.social, pres. of the American Federation for Teachers, says they're ready to protect students: “We have an obligation to our kids during the day, so we're not just giving a kid to somebody else.” #Velshi
