President Donald Trump said in a radio interview that aired Friday that Thanksgiving would be an "appropriate time" for Ukraine to accept a new proposal to end the war with Russia.

"Well, we have, you know, I've had a lot of deadlines, but if things are working, well, you tend to extend the deadlines, but Thursday is it, we think an appropriate time," he said.

The peace deal that the White House is pressuring Ukraine to accept would require Ukraine to make significant concessions to end the war, including forcing Kyiv to give up additional territory in the east, limit the size of its military, and agree that it will never join NATO.

Despite the fears from European leaders that Russian President Vladimir Putin could feel emboldened to go after other European countries, Trump claimed that Putin is not looking to create more wars.

"They'll be stopped. He's not looking for more war," he said.

Just hours before New York City Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani and President Donald Trump were slated to meet at the Oval Office on Friday, the Republican-led House passed a resolution to denounce "the horrors of socialism."

The resolution, which is non-binding, states that Congress "denounces socialism in all its forms and opposes the implementation of socialist policies in the United States."

Mamdani has been a member of the Democratic Socialists group, which experts have argued are far from the authoritarian socialism practices of communist governments such as the Soviet Union and Cuba.

Eighty-six Democrats, including Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, joined 199 Republicans in passing the measure. Forty-seven House members did not vote.

The resolution now heads to the Senate, where it's unlikely to receive the necessary 60 votes to advance.

The Department of Homeland Security is hiring "deportation judges" to make decisions "with generational consequences," according to a post by DHS Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin.

In the post on X, McLaughlin said the jobs offer potential full-time remote work with salaries ranging from $159,951 to $207,500.

Immigrant advocates and the union representing immigration judges have called out the administration for dismissing at least 80 immigration judges since Trump's second term began.

There are now roughly 600 judges to handle the backlog of more than 3.4 million cases.

Last week, three recently terminated judges discussed the firings at an event in Washington, D.C.

"People believe that immigration courts function with judicial independence the same way that we think of most courts in this country, and immigration courts just don't have that sense of independence that most courts do," said former judge Emmett D. Soper.

The Trump administration has also changed the hiring criteria for temporary immigration judges, removing the need for prior experience in immigration law.

President Donald Trump eliminated tariffs on agricultural products from Brazil with an executive order Thursday, his latest move to try to lower grocery prices.

This means key food imports from Brazil like coffee and beef, which were subject to 40% tariff rates, will now enter the U.S. tariff-free.

"After considering the information and recommendations these officials have provided to me and the status of negotiations with the Government of Brazil, among other things, I have determined that it is necessary and appropriate to modify the scope of products subject to the additional ad valorem rate of duty imposed under Executive Order 14323," the order said.

Earlier this year, the president slapped hefty tariffs on Brazilian imports over qualms with its government, specifically charges against former Brazilian president and Trump ally Jair Bolsonaro that the White House said were "politically motivated."
