Trump admin updates: Trump marks 1 year since assassination attempt in Butler, PA

President Donald Trump said he's naming Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy the acting administrator of NASA.

"Sean is doing a TREMENDOUS job in handling our Country’s Transportation Affairs, including creating a state-of-the-art Air Traffic Control systems, while at the same time rebuilding our roads and bridges, making them efficient, and beautiful, again," Trump wrote on his social media platform.

"He will be a fantastic leader of the ever more important Space Agency, even if only for a short period of time," Trump said in the post.

The previous nominee to lead NASA, Jared Isaacman, a billionaire with ties to Elon Musk, was pulled from consideration by the White House in late May just days before his scheduled confirmation vote.

President Donald Trump, in a post on his social media platform, announced a 50% tariff on imports of copper will go into effect on Aug. 1.

Trump said he came to the decision after receiving a national security assessment, pointing out that copper is used in semiconductors, aircraft, data centers and lithium-ion batteries, among many other uses.

"Copper is the second most used material by the Department of Defense! Why did our foolish (and SLEEPY!) 'Leaders' decimate this important Industry?" Trump wrote.

In a post on his social media platform, Trump said he was levying a 50% tariff on Brazil, the world’s leading coffee producer, citing, in part, its treatment of former President Jair Bolsanaro.

“The way that Brazil has treated former President Bolsonaro, a Highly Respected Leader throughout the world during his Term, including by the United States, is an international disgrace. This Trial should not be taking place. It is a Witch Hunt that should end IMMEDIATELY,” Trump wrote.

Bolsanaro, who was president from 2019 to 2022, is standing trial before Brazil’s Supreme Court for his alleged role in an attempted coup in 2023.

Brazil produced 37% of the world’s coffee in 2024-25, according to the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Foreign Agriculture Service.

Brazilian President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva responded on X, writing that "Brazil is a sovereign country with independent institutions that will not accept being tutored by anyone."
