Trump 2nd term updates: Trump excludes low-value shipments from looming tariffs

Leadership at the U.S. Agency for International Development has sent an email to laid-off agency staffers instructing them that they will have 15 minutes to enter their former offices at the Ronald Reagan Building in downtown Washington, D.C., to retrieve their personal belongings.

"This Thursday and Friday ONLY–on February 27 and 28, 2025 –USAID staff will have one opportunity to retrieve their personal belongings," according to the message, which was also posted to USAID.gov.

"Staff will be given approximately 15 minutes to complete this retrieval and must be finished removing items within their time slot only," it continued.

The email included a timetable giving staffers a window in which they can collect their belongings based on their bureau or independent office. For some, the time frame is as long as an hour and a half. For others, it's just half an hour.

The Department of Homeland Security said Tuesday that migrants who are in the country without legal status must register their information in a database that tracks them in an effort to "compel" self-deportation.

The department said there are "criminal penalties" for those who don't self-deport, aren't fingerprinted or fail to let the government know if their address has changed.

It is unclear how this affects parole recipients who would technically be in the country illegally after their parole program expires.

In the Oval Office, President Donald Trump announced his administration plans to sell a "gold card" -- his version of a green card that will cost $5 million.

"We're going to be selling a gold card. You have a green card. This is a gold card. We're going to be putting a price on that card of about $5 million. And that's going to give you green card privileges. Plus, it's going to be a route to citizenship, and wealthy people will be coming into our country by buying this card," Trump said.

"They'll be wealthy and they'll be successful and they'll be spending a lot of money and paying a lot of taxes and employing a lot of people. And we think it's going to be extremely successful and never been done before anything like this," Trump added, saying he expects to roll it out in the next two weeks.

Trump said he doesn't need Congress to act because it is not giving citizenship to those who purchase it, but rather a "strong pathway" to it.

Pressed if a Russian oligarch would be eligible, Trump said "possibly," adding that there are "some Russian oligarchs that are very nice people."

President Donald Trump signed an executive order calling for Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick to investigate the possibility of imposing tariffs on copper to see if they are necessary to "help build back our American copper industry … and strengthen our national defense."

When reporters asked how copper got on the president's radar during a call previewing the action, one official said Trump "is playing three-dimensional chess in this world, and he sees things far advanced that the rest of us don't."
