Today in One Sentence. Trump imposed 50% tariffs on most Canadian goods, invoking a never-before-used provision of a 1930 trade law in response to what the administration called Canada’s “discriminatory treatment of American products”; the Pentagon didn’t disclose three Iranian strikes on U.S. forces in Jordan that injured dozens of troops and damaged several helicopters until after a fourth attack killed two soldiers and left another missing; the U.S. launched a 10th consecutive night of strikes on Iran in an effort to reopen the Strait of Hormuz; the war with Iran has pushed the national average price of gasoline back above $4 a gallon; the Justice Department subpoenaed phone and text records from several New York Times reporters in an effort to identify confidential sources behind stories about security concerns involving Trump’s Qatari-donated Air Force One jet; Trump will stop flying on the Qatari-donated Air Force One while it undergoes “additional upgrades and enhancements” to be “maxed out”; a man set off fireworks and started a fire outside the federal building in Lower Manhattan; the Justice Department submitted its first-ever application asking the Alien Terrorist Removal Court to deport an unnamed noncitizen; Trump presented Spain with the World Cup trophy less than two weeks after calling the country “hopeless” and its people “bad people”; and Trump reportedly installed a life-size bronze statue of Thomas Jefferson in the White House Rose Garden.


1/ Trump imposed 50% tariffs on most Canadian goods, invoking a never-before-used provision of a 1930 trade law in response to what the administration called Canada’s “discriminatory treatment of American products.” Canada’s restrictions on American alcohol and autos, however, were largely retaliation for tariffs Trump imposed last year. The duties will take effect in 30 days, leaving time for the two countries to negotiate, and will apply even to goods previously protected under the U.S.-Mexico-Canada trade agreement. Energy, potash, certain fish and minerals, and products already subject to national-security tariffs will be exempt.

2/ The Pentagon didn’t disclose three Iranian strikes on U.S. forces in Jordan that injured dozens of troops and damaged several helicopters until after a fourth attack killed two soldiers and left another missing. The Defense Department identified the dead as 1st Lt. Tyler James Feehan, 25, and Pvt. Isabella Gonzales, 19, while the unidentified remains recovered at the base are being examined to determine whether they belong to the missing service member. Central Command later said four troops wounded in Friday’s attack were hospitalized and discharged and that others suffered minor injuries, but it hasn’t disclosed how many were hurt in the three earlier strikes. Pentagon spokesman Sean Parnell denied concealing casualties and pointed to an aggregate database listing 427 injuries and 14 deaths, though it doesn’t identify specific attacks and hadn’t been updated to include the deaths from this weekend. Trump called the deaths “a very sad thing” over the weekend, saying the troops died “in service to our country.” He later threatened that “Every time Iran kills an American Soldier they will pay for that killing many times over!” None of the reports, however, say whether Trump contacted the families, and the Pentagon hasn’t held a major briefing on the nearly five-month war since May 5.

3/ The U.S. launched a 10th consecutive night of strikes on Iran in an effort to reopen the Strait of Hormuz, targeting military capabilities used to attack commercial shipping. Separately, Iran-backed Houthi rebels declared a blockade on Saudi shipping through the Bab el-Mandeb Strait, threatening one of Riyadh’s main routes for bypassing the largely closed Strait of Hormuz. Saudi Arabia has routed more than 3.6 million barrels of oil and related fuels a day through the Red Sea, representing more than 3% of the global oil market.

4/ The war with Iran has pushed the national average price of gasoline back above $4 a gallon. Gas prices rose 13-cents in a week and are 86-cents higher than a year ago. Oil prices jumped more than 15% last week as renewed U.S. and Iranian attacks disrupted the Strait of Hormuz, where about one-fifth of the world’s energy supplies typically transit. Between Friday and Sunday, just 30 ships crossed the strait, compared with roughly 130 a day before the war. The White House, meanwhile, claimed prices would “plummet back to pre-conflict levels” as the military degrades Iran’s ability to disrupt commercial shipping.

5/ The Justice Department subpoenaed phone and text records from several New York Times reporters in an effort to identify confidential sources behind stories about security concerns involving Trump’s Qatari-donated Air Force One jet. The subpoenas also targeted two reporters’ spouses and one reporter’s mother. A federal judge temporarily paused the demands, including separate subpoenas seeking reporters’ grand jury testimony, until a Thursday hearing. Some requests went back to Jan. 1, months before the stories were published, which the Times said suggests the government is using the investigation to “forage” through journalists’ source relationships rather than pursue a narrowly tailored leak inquiry. Meanwhile, Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche denied the administration was targeting reporters, calling them “material witnesses.” (New York Times / Status)

6/ Trump will stop flying on the Qatari-donated Air Force One while it undergoes “additional upgrades and enhancements” to be “maxed out.” The Secret Service had urged Trump to switch aircraft when leaving the NATO summit in Turkey, because the Qatari-donated jet didn’t have all the security systems and defensive capabilities of the older Air Force One. Trump nevertheless denied that security concerns were the reason the plan will be sent for upgrades, saying that “the life of a president is very dangerous.” The White House, meanwhile, insisted that the jet is “perfectly safe.” (CNN / Washington Post / NBC News / CBS News / Bloomberg / New York Times)

7/ A man set off fireworks and started a fire outside the federal building in Lower Manhattan, prompting an FBI Joint Terrorism Task Force investigation. Federal officials said the man poured what appeared to be gasoline on the entrance steps and carried two apparent pellet guns, anti-ICE material, and a manifesto. Authorities didn’t release his name, announce charges, or identify a motive. Several people suffered minor injuries, including the officer and a bystander, but no one was seriously hurt. The building houses ICE, the FBI, immigration courts, and other federal offices. (New York Times / CBS News / CNN / Associated Press / Washington Post)

8/ EARLIER: Trump used his primetime White House address to cast doubt on U.S. elections and pressure Congress to pass the stalled SAVE America Act. He claimed that the voting systems were “vulnerable” and “easily compromised” despite newly declassified documents concluding that vote-tabulation systems would be difficult to manipulate at scale and that audits and paper trails would likely expose any attack. The intelligence community also previously concluded that no foreign actor altered any technical aspect of the 2020 voting process, and John Solomon, who helped lead the declassification effort, acknowledged there was “zero evidence” a foreign power flipped a vote in 2020, 2022, or 2024. Nevertheless, Trump also alleged that China obtained 220 million voter files, Venezuela manipulated its own voting machines, and roughly 278,000 noncitizens were registered to vote. He provided no evidence that foreign actors changed votes or that the alleged noncitizens cast ballots. The SAVE America Act would require proof of citizenship to register to vote and restrict mail voting, but remains blocked in the Senate.

9/ The Justice Department submitted its first-ever application asking the Alien Terrorist Removal Court to deport an unnamed noncitizen. Congress created the secretive five-judge court in 1996 for cases where ordinary immigration proceedings could expose classified information or threaten national security, but it’s never received an application. The Justice Department’s one-page filing is sealed and apparently classified, leaving the person’s identity, alleged conduct, and the legal basis for removal undisclosed. Chief Judge Joan Ericksen questioned whether the alleged actions fit the law, saying the government “could benefit from the opportunity for more thoughtful consideration,” and ordered it to provide additional facts and legal analysis by Wednesday.

10/ Trump presented Spain with the World Cup trophy less than two weeks after calling the country “hopeless” and its people “bad people.” Spain defeated Argentina 1-0 in extra time to win its second World Cup, forcing Trump, who had threatened to cut off trade with Madrid and attacked Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez over military spending and Iran, to award medals and hand the trophy to captain Rodri. (Politico / New York Times / NPR)

11/ Trump reportedly installed a life-size bronze statue of Thomas Jefferson in the White House Rose Garden. Three of the five statues he’s installed – Benjamin Franklin, Alexander Hamilton, and “Freedom’s Charge” – are on loan from billionaire conservative donor Harlan Crow. The White House had previously described their source only as “generous private American patriots.” The White House declined to comment on Crow’s role and said Trump is working “to beautify and honor our Nation’s Capital” for the country’s 250th anniversary. Trump has also installed a recreation of a Christopher Columbus statue torn down in Baltimore and is planning a 250-figure “American heroes” sculpture garden in West Potomac Park. (Washington Post)
