Trump Discussed Replacing Fed Chair Powell With Ex-Governor Kevin Warsh, Report Claims

Former President Donald Trump recently spoke with Kevin Warsh, who used to work at the Federal Reserve, about possibly replacing the current Fed chairman, Jerome Powell. Powell’s job is supposed to last until May 2026, but Trump has been unhappy with him. According to a report from the Wall Street Journal, Warsh told Trump not to fire Powell or try to interfere with his job. These talks happened at Trump’s home in Mar-a-Lago, Florida, as recently as February. Other people have also told Trump to fire Powell, even as recently as March. Trump has often said he wants Powell to lower interest rates, but Powell hasn’t done that. On Thursday morning, Trump posted on Truth Social, saying he couldn’t wait for Powell to be removed from his job. Popup Iframe Example

Senator Murkowski Speaks Out About Fear, Cuts, and Uncertainty U.S. Senator Lisa Murkowski recently spoke to a group of nonprofit leaders in Alaska about how worried many people are because of recent changes made by the Trump administration. These changes include new tariffs (extra taxes on goods), executive orders, legal fights, and major cuts to federal programs that help people. “We are all afraid,” Murkowski said seriously.

FSU Campus Tragedy: Deputy’s Son Opens Fire, Leaving 2 Dead and 6 Injured

At least six people were hurt during a possible active shooter situation at Florida State University (FSU) in Tallahassee. The university police said they were handling an "active scene" and trying to bring the situation under control. Later, FSU posted online that the threat had been "neutralized," but some parts of the campus were still being treated as a crime scene. A senior law enforcement official in Florida said one person had been arrested, but they weren’t sure yet if that person was the shooter. The FBI and other law enforcement agencies, including the ATF, quickly arrived to help because they have offices close to the university. Representative Neal Dunn, who represents the area, said he and his team were watching the reports closely. He asked everyone to follow safety instructions and thanked the first responders. A student named Ben Veytsman said he had just finished a therapy session on campus when he heard gunshots. He saw two people running, and one ...
