| | | WHAT WE'RE WATCHING | | ✊ Thousands join anti-Trump protests nationwide. Left-wing protesters gathered at over 1,000 locations across America in "Hands Off" demonstrations organized by the Indivisible Project, which has received millions in funding from George Soros. The largest crowds assembled in Washington, DC, where some protesters were seen praising Hamas and other terror groups. The widespread anti-Trump movement appears to struggle articulating many grievances besides accusing Trump and Elon Musk of being fascists. | 🏃♂️ Teen athlete was fatally stabbed at a Texas track meet. Austin Metcalf, a 16-year-old high school student from Texas, was fatally stabbed during a championship track event. The suspect, 17-year-old Karmelo Anthony from a rival school, has been charged with first-degree murder. Many note the muted nationwide outrage could be because the victim was white and the suspect black — a reversal that cuts against the media's usual racial narrative. | 🌏 Vietnam, Taiwan capitulate to Trump's trade demands. Vietnam offered to remove all duties on US imports, while Taiwan's president pledged zero tariffs and increased investments. Though some countries like Japan and South Korea show interest in increased trade with China, many Asian nations still rely on strong US partnership. This rapid capitulation suggests Trump's "maximum pressure" approach to trade negotiations may be more effective than critics anticipated. | ⚖️ The DOJ is fighting a judge's order on returning a deported migrant. The Justice Department argued that a federal judge lacks the authority to order the return of Kilmar Abrego Garcia from El Salvador. Garcia was one of the suspected MS-13 members flown from the US to a Salvadoran prison, though the White House said an administrative error was responsible for his mistaken deportation. The DOJ is calling into question the legal gray area in this case as it continues its fight against judges possibly overstepping their role. |

| | | EDITOR'S NOTE | High off materialism | Good morning. Whenever I travel abroad, I'm always struck by how much less materialistic other cultures are. | Here in America, I can click to buy cheap Chinese junk I don't need and have it at my doorstep in two hours. In most other countries, I'd at least have to drag myself to a cashier who doesn't speak English to buy something equally unnecessary. | Yes, America needs a strong economy. Americans need stable incomes. Essential goods should be affordable. But we don't need an endless flood of cheap Chinese garbage we're addicted to. | That's why — amid all the economic uncertainty — I think one message from the Treasury Secretary stands out: "Access to cheap goods is not the essence of the American dream." | |

| | | THE MAIN STORY | China thinks Trump is making a mistake | | What's happening: South Korean, Japanese, and Chinese officials held a trilateral meeting to discuss economic cooperation for the first time in five years. This comes as President Donald Trump placed tariffs of 25 percent on South Korea, 24 percent on Japan, and 54 percent on China. | Immediately after the meeting, Chinese state media claimed the three countries had agreed to "jointly respond" to Trump's tariffs — a claim breathlessly reported by the Western press. Except it's not true: Japan denied any such agreement, and South Korea called the reporting "somewhat exaggerated."
| Catch up: The three countries agreed to revive talks on a free trade agreement — an on-again, off-again effort since the early 2000s. Such a deal would bring their economies — which together account for nearly a quarter of the world's output — closer together and directly challenge US interests. | It's what China wants: The Global Times, a Chinese government-run newspaper, wrote that Japan and South Korea may need closer ties with China. In their words: "US strategies prioritize countering China over building proper stability in Asia." They continued, "While America positions itself as the defender of the 'free world,' it offers limited solutions to the region's pressing economic change."
| American response: Shortly after the meeting, Japan's and South Korea's foreign ministers met with Secretary of State Marco Rubio in Brussels. Japanese media reported that they discussed China — but the statement released after the meeting does not mention China once. America reiterated "its ironclad commitments to the defense of Japan and the ROK, backed by America's unmatched military strength, including its nuclear capabilities." | 🔒 The rest of this article is for members only | |
