Today’s Rundown:
- TRUMP ADMINISTRATION OFFERS $1,000 TO UNDOCUMENTED IMMIGRANTS WHO VOLUNTARILY LEAVE: The Trump administration has introduced a program offering $1,000 to undocumented immigrants who voluntarily leave the U.S. Participants must use a government app to arrange their departure, with payment issued after confirmation of exit. Officials suggest this incentive could aid future legal re-entry, though critics argue it may pressure vulnerable individuals into leaving. The initiative is part of Trump’s broader immigration enforcement strategy.
- TRUMP SAYS HE PLANS TO REOPEN ALCATRAZ PRISON: President Trump has announced plans to reopen and expand Alcatraz, the infamous prison closed since 1963, to house America’s most dangerous criminals. He described the facility as a symbol of “law and order.” Critics question the feasibility and cost of reviving the island prison, now a national park and tourist attraction. The Bureau of Prisons has been directed to assess the proposal.
- TRUMP ANNOUNCES 100% TARIFF ON ALL FOREIGN MOVIES: President Trump has proposed a 100% tariff on all foreign-produced films, citing national security concerns and the need to protect the U.S. film industry. He claims foreign incentives are drawing American filmmakers overseas. Industry experts warn the move could disrupt global film collaborations and violate international trade laws. The White House later clarified that no final decision has been made.
- TIKTOK GETS TEMPORARY RELIEF AS TRUMP CONSIDERS EXTENDING BAN DEADLINE: President Trump indicated he may extend the June 19 deadline for ByteDance to divest TikTok’s U.S. assets if no deal is reached by then. He expressed a “warm spot” for the app, suggesting a willingness to allow more time for negotiations. The potential extension offers temporary relief to TikTok amid ongoing discussions about its future in the U.S.
- PENTAGON TO CUT 20% OF FOUR-STAR GENERALS AND ADMIRALS UNDER NEW ORDER: Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth has ordered a 20% reduction in the number of four-star generals and admirals in the U.S. military. The move aims to streamline the military’s leadership structure and reduce bureaucracy. Additional cuts are planned for the National Guard and other general officer positions. The decision follows a broader effort to reshape the Pentagon’s hierarchy.
- NEW STUDY FINDS COMPANIES PRIORITIZE VIBES OVER SKILLS IN HIRING DECISIONS: A new study by Textio reveals that many companies continue to base hiring decisions on gut feelings and personality traits rather than objective assessments of skills. Interviewers often describe successful candidates using terms like “confident” or “enthusiastic,” highlighting a preference for subjective impressions. Experts warn this approach can lead to biased hiring practices and overlook qualified candidates.
- TEMU HALTS U.S. SHIPMENTS AFTER END OF TARIFF EXEMPTION FOR CHINA IMPORTS: Chinese e-commerce platform Temu has stopped shipping goods to the U.S. following the expiration of a tariff exemption for low-value imports. The change is part of the Trump administration’s efforts to close trade loopholes and encourage domestic manufacturing. Temu’s decision affects a wide range of affordable products previously available to American consumers.
- HAWK TUAH GIRL HALIEY WELCH ANNOUNCES CAREER REBRAND AFTER CRYPTO SCANDAL: Haliey Welch, known as the “Hawk Tuah” girl, is rebranding her career following a cryptocurrency controversy that led to significant financial losses for investors.
