Donald Trump won the 2024 presidential election and had promised an economic course correction. In August 2026, U.S.-Canada trade talks broke down, leading to new U.S. tariffs on Canadian goods, Canadian retaliatory tariffs, and a personal dispute between Trump and Ontario Premier Doug Ford. Sources provide no data on resulting price changes or net economic effects.

Slatefugitive ICE agents, running interference

ICE agent Christian Castro was released from a Texas jail after Minnesota sought his extradition on four felony charges. Texas declined the request, and DHS later suspended Castro. Separate federal operations in Minnesota involved the deaths of two U.S. citizens and the detention of a man of Somali descent on January 8, though no public records connect Castro to those events.
