Trump Foreign Aid Freeze Halts DOJ Overseas Enforcement President Donald Trump’s foreign aid freeze has suspended Justice Department overseas investigators from pursuing the same targets his administration says it prioritizes as top threats.

My first full story on the White House beat. Trump and Biden are steadfastly against the Nippon Steel takeover of US Steel, but House Rs aren't sure it's the right move. t.co/bBORMNudAK

For nearly eight years I’ve covered the working men and women of this country, through Covid, waves of strikes and rampant inflation. You all never ceased to remind me where I come from and why I do what I do. I will continue to report for you. Always.

Some labor news: starting next week I’ll be a White House correspondent for Bloomberg, covering policy for BGov, Tax, Law, etc.

I’m honored to have the chance to cover seismic changes in store under Trump 47 and can’t wait to get started. See y’all @ 1600.

What's worse: my @americanair.bsky.social flight from DCA catching on fire this morning or getting stuck at Dulles after an emergency landing? Honestly don't know.

What’s it like to be nominated for a department your boss says shouldn’t exist? Should be an interesting confirmation hearing.
