This comes as Hegseth is again mired in controversy over sharing military operational details in a group chat.

When Trump announced sweeping tariffs this month, he called it "Liberation Day." But there are fears that it may well have been the day foreign investors started to lose faith in the United States.

The federal housing agency says its 1968 building faces more than $500 million in deferred maintenance. It also says current staff take up only half the space.

President Trump lashed out at Powell for not acting sooner to lower interest rates. The president's own tariffs make that more difficult, by putting upward pressure on prices.

The government sent several planeloads of alleged gang members to El Salvador, including 137 people under the act, the White House said at the time. The judge gave the U.S. until April 23 to respond.
