Trump tariffs live updates: What time is Trump’s ‘Liberation Day’ announcement today?

The move comes several weeks after Arias, 84, criticized Donald Trump on social media, likening the president to a “Roman emperor.”

“I received an email from the U.S. government informing me that they have suspended the visa I have in my passport.

Donald Trump is characterising it as “Liberation Day”. The rest of the world is scratching its collective head and wondering how the most destructive trade policy the US has ever embarked on will end – and how much damage it will do to the global economy.

The latter wasn’t exactly flying before the US President proved that his bite could indeed be as bad as his bark. It still hasn’t properly recovered from the multiple shocks it has had to contend with in recent years. From the outset, Trump presidency 2.0 looked different. More organised. Filled with loyalists unlikely to attempt to frustrate the President’s destructive instincts, as some of the more experienced and mainstream Republicans in the last administration did.

Apparently, he was armed with a plan and had everything needed to make it happen. However, on the subject of trade – and arguably economics and inflation reduction while we’re at it – Trump has proven to be every bit as erratic as he was when he was last in office.

The political commentator and TV host, who’s been a longtime critic of the president, recently met with Trump for a private dinner organized by country singer Kid Rock.

In an X post shared Tuesday, Maher addressed fan interest in knowing how the meeting went, teasing: “I promise, all will be revealed on the next @RealTimers on April 11.”

When Donald Trump confirms that he is imposing tariffs on imports from the UK, it will appear to be a huge setback for Keir Starmer. Yet, the prime minister can still turn a diplomatic defeat into a victory.

A new filing in the case of the Salvadoran man who was wrongfully deported from the United States to a notorious prison in El Salvador has called out the Trump administration for shockingly not even seeking his return to the U.S.

The filing from his lawyers reads in part:

Most shockingly, Defendants do not claim to be attempting to seek Plaintiff’s return to the United States absent this Court’s intervention. This would be a very different case if Defendants came before the court hat in hand, confessing error and assuring the court that remedial steps were underway, and arguing that the Court should not short-circuit measures that were already in process. Instead, Defendants have already washed their hands of Plaintiff, of his U.S.-citizen wife, of his autistic nonverbal five-year-old U.S.-citizen child. Defendants’ proposed resolution of this state of affairs, which they caused either intentionally or at best recklessly, is nothing at all.

This is an outrageous set of facts. If Defendants’ actions in this case are allowed to remain without redress, then the withholding of removal statute and orders of immigration courts are meaningless, because the government can deport whomever they want, wherever they want, whenever they want, and no court can do anything about it once it’s done.

Plaintiff has requested that this Court order Defendants to request his return from the government of El Salvador: first, just ask them nicely to please give him back to us. It is inexplicable that Defendants have not done so already.
