Trump Administration

Winemaker concerned for consumers on tariffs

In response to the steel and aluminum tariffs, the European Union said last week that it would place levies on $28 billion worth of American goods, including beef, poultry, bourbon, jeans and peanut butter, starting April 1. President Trump said that if the EU enacts those tariffs, he will respond by imposing a 200% retaliatory tariff on all European wine and Champagne. Andrew Rockwell, production winemaker at Sparkling Pointe, joins "The Daily Report" to discuss.

Trump doubles down on judicial criticisms

President Trump is doubling down on his criticisms of the judicial branch. Since he took office, there have been several cases of federal judges temporarily stopping the administration from dismantling agencies or firing government employees. Plaintiffs, such as employee unions and nonprofits, have questioned the legality of these moves, many of which are still being argued in court. CBS News chief White House correspondent Nancy Cordes reports, and CBS News Justice correspondent Scott MacFarlane has the latest on the case over deportation flights to El Salvador.

DOJ discloses more deportation details

The Trump administration has disclosed more details surrounding Saturday's deportation flights as it defends its actions in court. The administration sent hundreds of alleged gang members to El Salvador, despite a judge's order demanding they turn the planes around. Some of the migrants were deported under the Alien Enemies Act, a centuries-old law designed to be used in times of war or invasion. CBS News immigration and politics reporter Camilo Montoya-Galvez reports.

Deportation and the Alien Enemies Act

President Trump invoked the Alien Enemies Act to justify deporting Venezuelan immigrants, claiming an "invasion" of gang-affiliated individuals. The law, passed in 1798, has only been used three times in U.S. history, most notably during World War II, leading to the internment of Japanese Americans. Legal expert Katherine Yon Ebright from the Brennan Center for Justice joins "CBS Mornings Plus" to discuss whether Trump has the authority to use it in this way.
