CNN data guru in twist calls Trump ‘most influential president' and reveals how he's ‘remaking the USA'
In a surprising TV moment, CNN data guru Harry Enten called Donald Trump the 'most influential president' of the century and revealed how he's 'remaking the United States of America.' Enten, the network's chief data analyst, recently talked with anchor Omar Jimenez on CNN Newsroom about Trump's controversial tariff and immigration policies as well as the flurry of executive orders he has signed in his second term. Trump announced sweeping global tariffs on April 2, which was dubbed 'Liberation Day,' but his tariff policy since then has been anything but predictable. A baseline 10 percent tariff was imposed on all imported goods on 'Liberation Day', with some countries facing additional reciprocal tariffs. These reciprocal tariffs were quickly suspended as the Trump administration attempted to negotiate trade agreements with other countries. Throughout this bumpy tariff ride, critics came up with a nickname for Trump: TACO or Trump Always Chickens Out. But Enten told Jimenez, 'I don't think that's true.' 'I think the theme of this segment is going to be, love it, like it, lump it, Trump's remaking the United States of America,' Enten said. The data guru said the effective tariff rate is at 18 percent, which is up from two percent last year and the highest since the 1930s. 'I can't think of a more influential president during this century, and it starts here with tariffs. He said he was going to raise tariffs, and despite the claims otherwise, he is in fact doing that,' Enten said. The CNN segment came after the Trump administration announced Thursday the 10 percent universal tariffs would remain in place but would only apply to countries where the U.S. exports more than it imports. Most counties face this levy, according to a senior administration official who spoke to CNN. Countries with which the U.S. has a trade deficit now face a 15 percent tariff. Some nations, which the senior official said had some of the highest trade deficits with the U.S., were hit with even higher levies. Enten then jumped into immigration statistics under Trump: 'How about net migration in the United States? Get this, it's down. It's gonna be down at least 60 percent.' 'We may be dealing with, get this, negative net migration to the United States in 2025. That would be the first time there is negative net migration in this country in at least 50 years. We're talking about down from 2.8 million in 2024,' Enten said. He continued: 'And that is a big reason why that I'm saying that Trump, at least in my mind, is the most influential president certainly this century and probably dating a good back chunk into the 20th century as well.' The data guru also talked about the 180 executive orders Trump has signed this year. 'You have to go all the way back to the FDR administration once again to find a year in which there were as many executive orders signed as we have this year. To give you an idea, [former President Joe] Biden, during his first year, signed 77. That's the entire year. We're only a little bit more than halfway through this year,' Enten said.

Who Is Luiza Rozova? Putin's Alleged Love Child Breaks Silence
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. Elizaveta Krivonogikh, also known as Luiza Rozova, has gone public with sharp criticism of Russian President Vladimir Putin—her alleged father—more than a year after vanishing from social media. Now living in Paris under a new name, she's distancing herself from the Kremlin and the luxury lifestyle she once displayed online. In a series of Telegram posts obtained by the German newspaper Bild, Krivonogikh wrote about a man "who took millions of lives and destroyed mine." The 22-year-old did not name Putin directly, but the reference was widely interpreted as her first public break with the Russian leader. "It's liberating to be able to show my face to the world again," she added. "It reminds me of who I am and who destroyed my life." A New Life in Paris Born in St. Petersburg in 2003, Krivonogikh has been long rumored to be the daughter of Putin and former cleaner Svetlana Krivonogikh. After Luiza's birth, her mother's financial fortunes rose sharply. While there has never been official confirmation of Putin's paternity, Krivonogikh's patronymic—Vladimirovna—and past investigative reports have fueled speculation for years.

On right, Elizaveta Krivonogikh. More Getty Images / Telegram She once posted regularly on Instagram, sharing photos of private jets, elite nightclubs and designer fashion. But her account disappeared around the time Russia invaded Ukraine in 2022. Now, according to multiple reports, she goes by Elizaveta Rudnova and works at two Paris art galleries—L Galerie in Belleville and Espace Albatros in Montreuil—both known for hosting anti-war exhibitions. She graduated from the ICART School of Cultural and Art Management in 2024 and helps organize shows and produce video content. Caught Between Politics Krivonogikh's new life has not been without controversy. Russian artist Nastya Rodionova, who fled Russia after the invasion of Ukraine, ended her collaboration with both galleries after learning of Krivonogikh's involvement. "It is inadmissible to allow a person who comes from a family of beneficiaries of the regime to come into confrontation with the victims of that regime," Rodionova said in a public statement. Krivonogikh defended herself, asking, "Am I really responsible for the activities of my family, who can't even hear me?" Some in the Paris art community have supported her. Dmitry Dolinsky, who runs the association that oversees both galleries, told Bild: "She looks like Putin, but so do 100,000 other people. I haven't seen a DNA test." Others described her as cultured and committed to her work. Her mother was sanctioned by the United Kingdom in 2023 over her ties to Putin's inner circle. Krivonogikh has since traded designer labels for activism, signaling a full break from the image she once embraced. "My life is ruined," she wrote recently, referencing the man she holds responsible for both personal and national destruction. She now appears focused on rebuilding her identity—and making it clear that she wants no part of the legacy she inherited.

Ex-Obama officials face federal grand jury probe into whether they promoted false Trump-Russia ties
WASHINGTON — The Justice Department has convened a federal grand jury to investigate former Obama administration officials who allegedly conspired to foment a scandal about President Trump's purported links to Russia during the 2016 election campaign, The Post has learned. The major legal development opens the door to criminal charges against prominent Cabinet members who served then-President Barack Obama, including former Director of National Intelligence James Clapper, former CIA Director John Brennan and former FBI Director James Comey. 3 Director of the FBI, James Comey (L), Director of the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) John Brennan (2L), Director of National Intelligence James Clapper (2 R) in 2014.

Getty Images It was not immediately clear whether the grand jury would be based in heavily Democratic Washington, DC or elsewhere. Advertisement Trump and current DNI Tulsi Gabbard have called for a federal investigation into the early days of the Russia collusion probe dubbed 'Crossfire Hurricane' — though the commander in chief himself has acknowledged that his predecessor likely is immune from prosecution due to a 2024 Supreme Court ruling on the criminality of official presidential acts. The president has accused the former officials of a treasonous and seditious conspiracy to undermine his first-term agenda, ultimately consuming more than two years in leaky investigations before special counsel Robert Mueller turned up no evidence of collusion. This is a breaking story. Please check back for updates.
