Maryland Gov. Wes Moore, often mentioned among Democrats as a potential presidential candidate, has been saying for months that he isn’t running for the White House in 2028. That hasn’t stopped persistent talk about his future political plans, especially when he continues to make appearances outside Maryland that raise his national profile.

Ketanji Brown Jackson gives stark warning after SCOTUS allows Trump to end migrant parole program

Advocates are reeling after the U.S. Supreme Court allowed the Trump administration to revoke (for now) a Biden-era parole program that granted temporary legal status for half a million migrants from Haiti, Cuba, Venezuela and Nicaragua. The high court granted a stay of a U.S. District Court ruling that blocked the Trump administration’s effort to end the parole program, known as CHNV. Former President Joe Biden created the program that allowed migrants fleeing humanitarian crises, including violence and poverty, in […]

 Elon Musk is leaving his government role as a top adviser to President Donald Trump after spearheading efforts to reduce and overhaul the federal bureaucracy. His departure, announced Wednesday evening, marks the end of a turbulent chapter that included thousands of layoffs, the evisceration of government agencies and reams of litigation.

Alice Johnson, Trump’s pardon czar, seen by some as Black political ‘token’ amid controversial pardons

Marine Corps’ new grooming policy slammed for targeting Black men

A recently updated grooming policy issued by the United States Marine Corps is being slammed by advocates for negatively targeting Black male service members. The policy is a reversal of a decades-long waiver that allowed Black men with coarse or curly hair to electively wear their beards as a result of a skin condition. The waivers allowed Black service members to avoid the military’s requirements for men to be clean-shaven. In March, the Marine Corps issued a new guidance on […]

Federal court blocks Trump from imposing sweeping tariffs under emergency powers law

A federal court on Wednesday blocked President Donald Trump from imposing sweeping tariffs on imports under an emergency-powers law, swiftly throwing into doubt Trump’s signature set of economic policies that have rattled global financial markets, frustrated trade partners and raised broader fears about inflation intensifying and the economy slumping. The ruling from a three-judge panel at the New York-based U.S. Court of International Trade came after several lawsuits arguing Trump’s “Liberation Day” tariffs exceeded his authority and left the country’s trade policy dependent […]
