Trump imposes tariffs on Canada, Mexico and China, spurring prospect of inflation and trade war
SUMMARY: President Trump signed an order imposing significant tariffs on imports from Mexico, Canada, and China, citing the need to protect Americans and curb illegal immigration and fentanyl production. This action led to swift retaliation from Canada and Mexico, with both countries implementing their own tariffs. The tariffs could worsen inflation, affecting prices on goods like groceries and gas, and harm trade relationships. While Trump aims to address national security and economic issues, his actions have sparked concerns about global economic disruption, with analysts warning of potential damage to the U.S. economy and voters’ trust in his promises to lower prices.

Efforts to legalize mobile sports betting in Mississippi on life support
SUMMARY: The Mississippi House is attempting to revive a bill allowing mobile sports betting for those 21 and older after the Senate Gaming Committee failed to advance it. To keep the initiative alive, the House Gaming Committee amended two Senate bills to include the mobile betting provisions. The ongoing dispute between the House and Senate reflects differing views on the bill’s potential impact on the state’s existing casinos. Supporters argue legalizing mobile betting could curb illegal gambling and generate tax revenue, while Senate committee chair David Blount fears it could harm brick-and-mortar establishments and lead to expanded online gaming.
