From the White House

Yesterday, the U.S. and U.K. unveiled the outline for a long-sought trade deal, marking a significant step in post-Brexit economic relations.

The deal grants tariff exemptions for steel and aluminum, lowers tariffs on most British-made cars from 25% to 10%, creates a secure supply chain for aerospace components and pharmaceutical products, and includes “billions of dollars of increased market access for American exports.” Both President Trump and U.K. Prime Minister Starmer heralded the deal as a big win.

The Trump Admin is also celebrating big law enforcement wins: the DEA had its largest fentanyl bust in history, seizing 2.7M pills, and a five-day FBI crackdown saw 200 suspected child predators arrested. 

Meanwhile, a federal district judge preemptively stopped Homeland Security’s plan to deport migrants to Libya on military aircraft, saying it would violate existing court orders.

RADIATE HOPE
Believers must balance engaging in politics (which can be important and impactful) with a calm, unshakable confidence in God (whose plans are not dependent on the actions of global leaders).

“Our citizenship is in heaven, and we eagerly wait for a Savior from there, the Lord Jesus Christ.”
