ICE Doesn't Need Another $100 Billion
The supplemental funds — to be spent over the next four years — would leave vital aspects of immigration reform unaddressed. But the funding is essential to President Donald Trump's mass deportation plans. Vice President JD Vance left little doubt of that when he posted on social media, 'Everything else — the [Congressional Budget Office] score, the proper baseline, the minutiae of the Medicaid policy — is immaterial compared to the ICE money and immigration enforcement provisions.'

Trump administration moves to terminate a form of humanitarian relief for Nicaraguans and Hondurans in the US
The Department of Homeland Security has moved to terminate a form of humanitarian relief for migrants from Nicaragua and Honduras residing in the United States, according to an announcement from the department and draft notices published in the Federal Register. The Trump administration has stripped protections from multiple nationalities in the US who were protected from deportation and allowed to temporarily live in the country, arguing that conditions at home no longer justified those protections. The termination of the relief, known as Temporary Protected Status, has prompted legal challenges nationwide — and has been blocked by federal judges in some instances. The latest move would affect approximately 72,000 migrants from Honduras and 4,000 from Nicaragua, according to government estimates. Honduras was initially designated for TPS in 1999 based on an environmental disaster, according to a draft notice in the Federal Register. Nicaragua was similarly designated for TPS in 1999 because of an environmental disaster. 'Temporary Protected Status was designed to be just that — temporary,' Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem said in a statement. 'It is clear that the Government of Honduras has taken all of the necessary steps to overcome the impacts of Hurricane Mitch, almost 27 years ago.' TPS applies to people who would face extreme hardship if forced to return to homelands devastated by armed conflict or natural disasters, therefore the protections are limited to people already in the United States. Past Republican and Democratic administrations have designated the protections, though some Republicans have argued the relief shouldn't have been extended multiple times.

Stock market today: Dow, S&P 500, Nasdaq fall as Trump amps up tariff threats with deadline looming
US stocks fell on Monday as President Trump made a fresh tariff threat and confirmed that country-specific duties will kick in on Aug. 1, ramping up trade uncertainty as the end to his tariff pause looms. The Dow Jones Industrial Average (^DJI) slipped 0.7%, while the S&P 500 (^GSPC) also backed off 0.6%. The tech-heavy Nasdaq Composite (^IXIC) dropped 0.7% as Tesla (TSLA) stock sank amid worries about CEO Elon Musk's plan to launch a political party. Stocks are pulling back after a strong jobs report helped boost the S&P 500 and Nasdaq Composite to all-time closing highs on Thursday, before the early trading shutdown for the long Independence Day weekend. With equities at record levels, investors are wary that any sharp turn in trade negotiations could trigger volatility. Trump said late Sunday that any country aligning itself with the "Anti-American policies of BRICS" will face an additional 10% tariff. "There will be no exceptions to this policy," he said in a post to social media. The warning came after BRICS — a group of countries including key US trading partners China and India — criticized Trump's tariff policy at its summit at the weekend. It ramped up already-high trade tensions as nations race to clinch tariff deals ahead of Trump's self-imposed deadline of July 9, when his "pause" on steep April tariffs would go back into effect. Global markets have been bracing for that potential shock, with the US only having reached deals with the UK and Vietnam, as well as a framework toward an agreement with China. On Sunday, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent and Trump confirmed that while letters will be sent out this week informing countries of their tariff rates, those duties would not go into effect until Aug. 1.

Bessent hinted at several possible deals in the coming days, suggesting the focus this week is clarity with 18 major trading partners before setting duties for the 100-plus other countries that the administration has in its sights for trade taxation.

Wall Street analysts predict a significant drop in oil prices by the end of the year as increased supply is expected to flood the market. However, as of Monday, West Texas Intermediate crude (CL=F) was trading above $67 per barrel, and Brent crude (BZ=F), the international benchmark, was above $69 per barrel. The session rise occurred despite the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) and its allies announcing output increases over the weekend. "All in all, the supply picture definitely looks to be elevating; however, the stronger demand is remaining above expectations as well, hence the choppy trade," said Dennis Kissler, senior vice president at BOK Financial, in a note on Monday. OPEC cited lower global oil inventories as a reason to boost output in August by 548,000 barrels per day. This marks the cartel's fourth consecutive monthly increase and was larger than anticipated. "Saturday's announcement to accelerate supply hikes suggests that the strategic shift to normalizing spare capacity and market share, supporting internal cohesion, and disciplining US shale supply is continuing," Goldman Sachs analysts Daan Struyven and his team noted on Sunday. Struyven and his team anticipate OPEC will increase production yet again in September, and maintained their price forecast with Brent averaging $59 in the fourth quarter of 2025 and $56 in 2026. Tesla (TSLA) stock slid on Monday, falling 7% as CEO Elon Musk and President Trump's feud erupted again and as investors grew concerned over the loss of electric vehicle tax credits from Trump's budget bill.
