Paul and Wyden Introduce Bipartisan Resolution to Reassert Congressional Authority Over Tax Policy
Washington, D.C. – Today, U.S. Senator Rand Paul (R-KY) and Senator Ron Wyden (D-OR) introduced a bipartisan resolution to terminate a national emergency declaration used to impose broad tariffs on goods imported into the United States. The resolution reasserts Congress’s constitutional authority over tax policy by ending the emergency powers used to bypass legislative oversight.
“Tariffs are taxes, and the power to tax belongs to Congress—not the president. Our Founders were clear: tax policy should never rest in the hands of one person. Abusing emergency powers to impose blanket tariffs not only drives up costs for American families but also tramples on the Constitution. It’s time Congress reasserts its authority and restores the balance of power.” Said Dr. Paul
The resolution would end the emergency declared in Executive Order 14257, which enabled tariffs of up to 49% on a wide range of imported goods. American consumers will face higher costs, and U.S. manufacturers and farmers will be hit by retaliatory tariffs from foreign governments once the tariffs go into effect.
Dr. Paul has consistently opposed the use of emergency declarations to circumvent Congress, especially when those actions have broad and lasting economic impact. This resolution is part of his ongoing effort to protect constitutional checks and balances and ensure Congress—not the Executive Branch—sets the nation’s tax polic

DHS Revokes Legal Status for Migrants Under App >

Migrants who were temporarily allowed to live in the United States by using a Biden-era online appointment app have been told to leave the country “immediately,” officials said Monday. It was unclear how many beneficiaries would be affected.
More than 900,000 people were allowed in the country using the CBP One app since January 2023. They were generally allowed to remain in the United States for two years with authorization to work under a presidential authority called parole.
“Canceling these paroles is a promise kept to the American people to secure our borders and protect national security,” the Department of Homeland Security media affairs unit said in response to questions.
Authorities confirmed termination notices were sent to CBP One beneficiaries but did not say how many. They were urged to voluntary self-deport using the same app they entered on, which has been renamed CBP Home.
“It’s time for you to abandon the United States," the Department of Homeland Security wrote to a Honduran family that entered the U.S. at the end of last year. The Associated Press reviewed the email received Sunday.
Others shared the same email on social media platforms.
Al Otro Lado, a nonprofit organization that provides legal aid to migrants, said some who received the revocation letters are from Honduras, El Salvador and Mexico.
CBP One was a cornerstone of the Biden administration's strategy to create and expand legal pathways to enter the United States in an attempt to discourage illegal border crossings. By the end of December, 936,500 people had been allowed to enter with CBP One appointments at border crossings with Mexico. President Donald Trump ended CBP One for new entrants on his first day in office, stranding thousands in Mexico who had appointments into early February.
Trump has ended and revoked temporary status for many who benefited under Biden’s policies. Homeland Security said Monday that Biden’s use of parole authority — more than any president since it was created in 1952 — “further fueled the worst border crisis in U.S. history.”
Homeland Security said last month that it was revoking another form of parole for 532,000 people from Cuba, Haiti, Nicaragua and Venezuela who flew to the country at their own expense with a financial sponsor. It ends April 24.
The Trump administration has also announced an end to Temporary Protected Status for 600,000 Venezuelans and about 500,00 Haitians, though a federal judge temporarily put that on hold, including for about 350,000 Venezuelans who had been scheduled to lose TPS on Monday. TPS is granted in 18-month increments to people already in the U.S. whose countries are deemed unsafe for return due to natural disaster or civil strife.

Fani Willis Ordered to Pay $54K for Violating Law in Trump Case
https://truthpress.com/news/fani-willis-ordered-to-pay-54k-for-violating-law-in-trump-case/?utm_source=truthpress.beehiiv.com&utm_medium=newsletter&utm_campaign=fani-willis-found-guilty&_bhlid=21c8224b6d457e19b2bc8dd60de7103e2c132453
Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis has been ordered to pay over $54,000 in attorney fees and expenses after a court ruled that her office violated Georgia’s Open Records Act (ORA) in a case related to President Donald Trump.
The ruling, which was handed down by a Georgia court on Friday, found that Willis and her office failed to comply with open records requests within the legally required timeframe, acting without “substantial justification” in withholding the requested information. As a result, the court awarded Ashleigh Merchant $54,103.23 in attorney fees and litigation expenses.
The ruling stems from a dispute with defense attorney Merchant, who represents Michael Roman, a co-defendant in the election interference case against President Donald Trump. Merchant had requested records related to the case, but the D.A.’s office failed to provide them, leading the judge to find the office “openly hostile” and lacking “good faith” in handling the requests.
The county’s Superior Court Judge Rachel Krause also mandated that specific public records be produced within 30 days, warning that additional penalties could be imposed if Willis and her office fail to comply. The case centered on whether the Fulton County District Attorney’s Office was subject to the Open Records Act, a question that was answered definitively by the court.
Citing the Georgia Supreme Court’s ruling in Gonzalez v. Miller, the court reaffirmed that Willis, as the head of the District Attorney’s Office, is the custodian of public records and is responsible for ensuring compliance with ORA regulations. Crucially, Willis’s office did not assert that any of the requested records were exempt from disclosure.
Instead, the court found that her office simply failed to provide the requested documents within the legally required three business days, in direct violation of state law.
Merchant, who requested the public records from Willis’s office, filed a legal challenge after receiving no timely response. Krause determined that the District Attorney’s Office had no substantial justification for its non-compliance, which triggered penalties under the law.
“Defendants — through the Open Records custodian, Dexter Bond — were openly hostile to counsel for Plaintiff, Ms. Merchant, and testified that Ms. Merchant’s requests were handled differently than other requests,” the order read.
“Proud that we have judges willing to hold people in power accountable when they ignore the law!!!!” Merchant wrote on X Friday.
As a result of the violation, the court ordered Willis’s office to cover the legal costs incurred by the plaintiff in pursuing the case, and retains jurisdiction over the matter and has the authority to impose further sanctions if Willis’s office continues to delay or withhold records.
In addition to the financial penalty, the judge ordered Willis’s office to produce several key documents within 30 days. Among the records to be disclosed are non-disclosure agreements (NDAs) signed by individuals involved in the case, as well as a list of attorneys hired by the District Attorney’s Office in connection to Trump-related prosecutions.
Failure to comply with the order could result in additional legal consequences for Willis and her office, as the court has explicitly stated it will continue to monitor compliance and consider further penalties if necessary.

UPDATE 🚨 Illegal border crossings have plummeted, leading to the closure of several temporary processing facilities along the southwest border. Each facility shutdown saves $5-$30M/month. More resources for border security, less taxpayer money spent.
