Sign inNeel Kashkari, the president and CEO of the Minneapolis Fed, told "Face the Nation with Margaret Brennan" that while economists have been watching for an interest rate cut, "we all need to be open-minded about where interest rates are going because there's so much uncertainty coming out of the Middle East."
White House National Economic Council Director Kevin Hassett told "Face the Nation with Margaret Brennan" that although Spirit Airlines said rising fuel prices had contributed to its demise, "energy shocks don't have a big effect" on other airlines' business. But he acknowledged that "certainly, that will affect the profits for the airlines for a quarter or so."
Jeanine Pirro is sworn in as the new interim U.S. Attorney for the District of Columbia during a ceremony hosted by U.S. President Donald Trump, at the White House in Washington, D.C., U.S., May 28, 2025. Leah Millis | ReutersU.S. Attorney for the District of Columbia Jeanine Pirro on Sunday appeared to abandon a plan to appeal an adverse ruling in her attempts to criminally investigate Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell. Pirro has long said she planned to ask a higher court to review recent rulings by Chief Judge James Boasberg of the District of Columbia quashing her subpoenas to the Fed. She has argued that the judge's decision makes it difficult for her to conduct grand jury investigations in general. Her appeal was due by Monday. Pirro appeared to change tack in an appearance on CNN's "State of the Union." "We're going to make a motion to vacate the order of Judge Boasberg, because we think it's extremely important for us as prosecutors, the precedent that it sets to prevent us from going into a grand jury," Pirro said.Read more CNBC politics coveragePirro reveals new Trump attack evidence; Cole Allen challenges 'suicide precautions'Bard President Botstein retiring after Jeffrey Epstein
Second Nature Brands has issued a recall of its Keto Crunch Smart Mix on Friday after discovering the product may contain undeclared cashews, pistachios and cherries, posing a potential risk to consumers with allergies.The recall was announced on Saturday by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), which warned people with allergies or severe sensitivities to these ingredients could face serious or life-threatening reactions if they consume the affected product.Newsweek contacted Second Nature Brands via email on Sunday for comment.Undeclared Allergens Prompt RecallAccording to the Michigan-based company, the issue involves its 10-ounce packages of Keto Crunch Smart Mix that were distributed with incorrect labeling, failing to list cashews, pistachios and cherries among the ingredients.The presence of undeclared allergens is a major food safety concern, as consumers rely on accurate labelling to avoid ingredients that could trigger allergic reactions. The FDA said the recall was initiated by the company after it was discovered the product contained ingredients not listed on the packaging.According to FARE (Food Allergy Research and Education), tree nut allergies are among the most common food allergies affecting children and adults. The most frequently reported include walnut, almond, hazelnut, pecan, cashew and pistachio. Around 50 percent of children allergic

Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche has defended President Donald Trump’s handling of the conflict with Iran, insisting the administration is acting within the law, even as a key deadline passed without congressional approval to continue military operations.The Trump administration is facing growing legal and political scrutiny over its military involvement in Iran, with questions mounting over whether ongoing U.S. activity in the region exceeds the limits set by federal law.Speaking in an interview with NBC's Kristen Welker, Blanche rejected suggestions that the United States is currently at war with Iran, pointing instead to a ceasefire and the absence of recent hostilities.The comments come as the White House faces increased scrutiny over its compliance with the War Powers Act, which requires congressional authorization for military action lasting longer than 60 days—the U.S. and Israel began operations against Iran on February 28.War Powers Deadline Sparks Legal Debate...The 60-day deadline passed Friday without Congress approving continued military engagement. In a letter to lawmakers, Trump asserted that hostilities with Iran had “terminated,” despite the continued presence of U.S. armed forces in the region. The move effectively sidestepped the legal requirement for congressional approval, with Republican lawmakers largely declining to challenge the president’s position.The situation
U.S. troop levels across Europe—and especially among NATO members—are under renewed scrutiny after President Donald Trump confirmed a major drawdown in Germany, raising fresh questions over the future of America’s military footprint on the continent.Trump said late Friday that 5,000 U.S. troops would be withdrawn from Germany, following remarks by Chancellor Friedrich Merz criticizing Washington’s handling of the Iran conflict. The president also suggested on Saturday that the total number of troops in Germany could be reduced “a lot further,” despite warnings from Republicans that deep cuts could send the “wrong signal” to Russian President Vladimir Putin.The move would hit Germany hardest, which hosts the largest concentration of U.S. forces in Europe—about 36,400 personnel out of roughly 68,000 stationed across the continent as of late 2025, according to U.S. Defense Manpower Data Center figures.That presence has long been central to NATO’s deterrence strategy, particularly in countries bordering Russia, where the U.S. military footprint is seen as a key safeguard against potential aggression....Where US Troops Are Based in EuropeGermanyGermany hosts around 36,400 U.S. active-duty personnel, making it the largest U.S. military hub in Europe. Nearly 23,000 are U.S. Army, with more than 12,000 from the Air Force, alongside civilian staff and

President Donald Trump's approval rating has hit the lowest point of his second presidential term, a new poll by ABC News, The Washington Post, and Ipsos shows.The poll, released on April 30, showed Trump’s approval rating at 37 percent, with a disapproval rating of 62 percent, which is a record high across both of his presidential terms.Across every major policy area tested—including the economy, immigration, inflation, taxes and foreign policy—respondents were found to view Trump’s handling more negatively than positively.As the U.S. midterms approach, the findings suggest Trump’s governing position could be weakening, as well as his party’s hold of the House—the poll also found that voters would be more inclined to vote for a Democratic candidate if a U.S. House of Representatives election was held today.If a president's approval ratings drop, they can retain credibility on certain issues, although, as Trump's handling of eight key policy areas appear to be more widely viewed as negative, it suggests the road ahead could be even trickier for the president.Trump and his administration have pushed back on negative interpretations of his approval rating—he recently told NewsMax in a phone interview: "It is a problem I'm not on the ballot.

Two top Republican lawmakers expressed their concern Saturday about President Donald Trump’s decision to withdraw 5,000 U.S. troops from NATO ally Germany.“We are very concerned by the decision to withdraw a U.S. brigade from Germany,” Sen. Roger Wicker, R-Miss, and Rep. Mike Rogers, R-Ala., respectively the heads of the House and Senate Armed Services committees, said in a joint statement.The president said Saturday that there could be more cuts to troops in Europe after the Pentagon announced the withdrawal. Trump told reporters: “We’re going to cut way down, and we’re cutting a lot further than 5,000.”The decision to slash troops came after German Chancellor Friedrich Merz told students earlier in the week that the U.S. was “being humiliated by the Iranian leadership,” unusually frank remarks that triggered a backlash from Washington. Almost 40,000 U.S. troops are currently stationed in Germany, the largest contingent in Europe.Sen.

Pirro, speaking on CNN's "State of the Union," said new ballistics evidence showed the agent's protective vest contained a buckshot pellet from the Mossberg pump action shotgun Allen allegedly carried on the night of the shooting.Allen has been charged by federal prosecutors with attempting to assassinate President Donald Trump in the shooting that left one Secret Service agent shot but uninjured. Prosecutors have also charged Allen with the discharge of a firearm during a crime of violence, but until Pirro's comments, law enforcement officials had not disclosed whose bullet hit the agent. "It is definitively his bullet," Pirro said. "He had every intention to kill him
A Chinese court ruled that companies cannot terminate employees just to replace them with artificial intelligence systems, as authorities juggle the need to stabilize the domestic labor market with a global race to develop AI technologies. The court decided that a tech firm in eastern China had illegally fired one of its workers after he refused to take a demotion when his job was automated by AI, according to a statement published by the Hangzhou Intermediate People’s Court. “The termination grounds cited by the company did not fall under negative circumstances such as business downsizing or operational difficulties, nor did they meet the legal condition that made it ‘impossible to continue the employment contract,’” the court said in the article dated April 28. Companies cannot unilaterally lay off employees or cut salaries due to technological progress, the court said in a separate statement, citing the same case. The ruling comes as Chinese companies race to implement AI systems as part of a state-directed push to dominate the new technology. At the same time, planners in the Chinese Communist Party have indicated a willingness to prioritize stability in the labor market as the country reckons with a slowing economy and elevated
World May 3, 2026 12:02 PM EDT VIENNA (AP) — Police in eastern Austria say a 39-year-old suspect has been arrested after rat poison turned up in some HiPP baby food jars on supermarket shelves in central Europe. HiPP, which recalled some of its baby food jars in Austria, Slovakia and the Czech Republic after the case came to light last month, said in a statement Saturday it was "greatly relieved" by the arrest, and would provide further updates as verified details come in.

It said the suspect was being questioned, and that no further details would be immediately provided. The Burgenland public prosecutor's office has announced an investigation into suspected "intentional endangerment of the public."

RFK Jr.’s Unsupported Claims About Tylenol-Autism Study He Called ‘Garbage’ During an April 17 congressional hearing, Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F.

Iran’s latest proposal to the United States calls for issues between the countries to be resolved within 30 days and aims to end the war rather than extend the ceasefire, according to Iran’s state-linked media. President Donald Trump on Saturday said he was reviewing a new Iranian proposal but expressed doubt it would lead to a deal, adding on social media that “they have not yet paid a big enough price for what they have done to Humanity, and the World, over the last 47 years” since the Islamic Revolution there. Iran’s 14-point proposal, a rebuttal to a U.S. nine-point plan, also calls for the U.S. lifting sanctions on Iran, ending the U.S. naval blockade of Iranian ports, withdrawing forces from the region and ceasing all hostilities, including Israel’s operations in Lebanon, according to the semiofficial Nour News and Tasnim agencies, which have close ties to Iran’s security organizations. There was no mention in those reports, however, of Iran’s nuclear program and its enriched uranium, long the central issue in tensions with the U.S. and one that Tehran would rather address later. Iran sent its reply via Pakistan, which hosted face-to-face talks last month between Iran and the United States.
Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre is backing the Ontario government’s move to expand Toronto’s Billy Bishop Airport, saying it would be great for the economy and increase competition. He made the comments only a short distance from Billy Bishop on Sunday while making a separate announcement on government debt.“This is great for the economy, for the environment and for convenience,” Poilievre said. “This is the business district of our biggest city, why would we not want business travellers to arrive in our business district?”Poilievre previously called on the federal government in 2022 to approve a runway expansion at the airport to allow jets to fly in and out of downtown.Echoing comments made then, the Conservative Party leader said it would help with competition in the aviation sector and reduce traffic congestion. Story continues below advertisement “It would take traffic off the highways between downtown and Pearson and it would allow us to expand our air transportation,” Poilievre said. “Also, Pearson is a disaster.

Just months into the pandemic, Matthew Haines, like landlords across the country, learned he was barred from evicting tenants who didn’t pay their rent under a federal eviction moratoriumthat lasted almost a year — costing him and his investors over $1 million. Now, the 57-year-old Texan is hoping to get some relief. Haines is among more than 1,500 property owners who filed a federal lawsuit arguing the moratorium enacted by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention violated the Fifth Amendment by unlawfully denying them compensation. Plaintiffs range from those who lost thousands of dollars to one who lost over $14.5 million. After initially losing in the Court of Federal Claims in 2022, the plaintiffs won on appeal and are now in settlement discussions with the Justice Department. Landlords are hoping to recoup as much as $1.5 billion — a fraction of what the industry lost. “It’s important for us to stand up when a group like the CDC unilaterally, functionally, decides that they have a right to oversee our business,” said Haines, who owns three rental communities with 240 units in Arlington and Irving, Texas. “What I hope that we will accomplish and, to some extent, we already have,
World May 3, 2026 11:49 AM EDT CASABLANCA, Morocco (AP) — Two U.S. service members are missing in southwestern Morocco after taking part in annual multinational military exercises in the North African country, the United States Africa Command (AFRICOM) said Sunday. The service members are U.S. Army soldiers who went missing while on a hike, a U.S. defense official told The Associated Press on condition of anonymity as they were not allowed to speak publicly about the issue.

"The incident remains under investigation and the search is ongoing," it said in a statement. The incident happened on Saturday at about 9 p.m., the Moroccan military said, near the Cap Draa Training Area near Tan Tan, close to the Atlantic Ocean.

When he talks about the role of religion in the founding of the United States, historian Gregg Frazer does not attract eager audiences. “Neither side really wants to hear what I say,” says Frazer, a professor of history and political studies at The Master’s University, a Christian school in Santa Clarita, California. The founders, Frazer says, did not create a Christian republic. Several key founders either rejected core Christian doctrines or were vague enough to keep historians debating. For Frazer, that often disappoints audiences of his fellow Christians. But, he says, nor were the founders a cluster of rationalist deists - believers in a God who set the universe in motion like a clockmaker and then left it alone - and anti-religious skeptics, as they are sometimes portrayed. That disappoints audiences who favor a high firewall between church and state. Most of the founders were religious in one form or another. The long-running debate over the founders’ intentions about religion has been turbocharged with the approaching 250th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence on July 4. Amid the America 250 celebrations, some Christian activists and authors are redoubling claims that the U.S. had a Christian founding. They have an ally

A hidden force is quietly pushing up costs for everything from your summer vacation to your weekly grocery bills: a weaker U.S. dollar. The dollar has fallen about 10% against other major currencies since President Donald Trump returned to the White House, a pullback potentially playing a role in Americans’ concerns about affordability. “It’s kind of a hidden tax,” says economist Thomas Savidge of the conservative-leaning American Institute for Economic Research. “What your dollar is going to be able to buy is going to shrink.” A look at where the dollar stands and what it means for you: Historic dollar decline The U.S. Dollar Index, which measures the greenback against other major currencies, logged its steepest six-month drop in more than 50 years in the first half of 2025. Though the decline hasn’t deepened, the dollar index is still about 10% lower than the start of Trump’s term. A strong dollar makes imports cheaper and can help keep inflation in check. A weak one can increase prices on foreign goods but boost American exports. U.S. presidents have long voiced support for a strong dollar even as they pursued policies that, at times, pushed the currency lower. Trump has suggested a
My first job was at a place called Frosty’s, the only real hangout in my small prairie town. The front third of the building was dedicated to cheeseburgers and soft ice cream; further back in the middle was a modest pinball arcade, while in the rear was a pool hall. Many God-fearing townsfolk considered this to be three levels of Hell, descending from evil, dinner-spoiling sweets to money-sucking coin-operated amusements, to the domain of smokers, ne’er-do-wells, and hooligans.In the middle of it all was a commercial jukebox, a beat-up thing with terrible audio, and about 50 records. A quarter got you three plays. Rob, one of the pool-playing regulars, would begin his hustling by changing a 10-dollar bill into quarters (the equivalent of almost $50 today), all of which were spent on the same song. If Rob was in the back, everyone else was guaranteed 75 plays of Elvis Presley’s Burnin’ Love. Story continues below advertisement Those of a certain age might remember jukeboxes with suspicion, too.

Alex Zanardi, who has died aged 59, was a Formula One driver and two-times champion in Cart (previously IndyCar); he was also a paralympian who won four gold medals as a hand-cyclist. Perhaps above all he was esteemed as an inspirational figure who reinvented his life after losing both legs in a racing accident in 2001.In September that year, Zanardi was competing in a Cart race at Lausitzring in north-east Germany, the first time the American series raced in Europe, and was leading the race when he made a late refuelling stop. He lost control while exiting the pits, spun across the track and was hit broadside-on by Alex Tagliani. The impact sheared Zanardi’s car in half. “Part of the car stayed with me, and the other part left, with parts of me in it,” Zanardi recalled in his autobiography My Story (2004).Zanardi almost bled to death, losing all but one litre of his blood. With his left leg severed at the thigh and the right at the knee, he was saved only by the decisive action of the doctors Terry Trammell and Steve Olvey, who had him helicoptered to an intensive care unit in Berlin. His heart stopped three
