Federal Reserve officials said inflation has fallen further toward their target level in recent months but signaled that they expect to cut their benchmark interest rate just once this year. The policymakers’ forecast for one rate cut was down from their previous projection of three cuts, because inflation, despite having cooled in the past two months, remains persistently above their target level. The scaled-back estimate for rate cuts came as something of a surprise, given that the government reported that inflation slowed in May more than most economists had expected. Financial markets took encouragement, though, from the statement the Fed issued after its latest meeting, which underscored that it sees progress in its fight against high inflation.
Republicans stick to attacking criminal justice system, echoing Trump, after Hunter Biden conviction
Republicans loyal to Donald Trump are largely echoing the former president’s claim that the Justice Department has treated President Joe Biden’s son with kid gloves while zealously prosecuting Trump. They used Hunter Biden's conviction Tuesday for charges related to buying a gun while addicted to drugs to press unsubstantiated or debunked allegations that Joe Biden acted while vice president to advance his family members’ foreign business interests. Trump’s campaign issued a statement calling the verdict “nothing more than a distraction from the real crimes of the Biden Crime Family.”
Several immigrant advocacy groups are suing the Biden administration over President Joe Biden's directive last week to stop asylum processing at the southern border. They say it's no different than a similar ban under the Trump administration that was ultimately blocked in the courts. Biden's order limits asylum claims once encounters with migrants between ports of entry reach 2,500 per day. It went into effect immediately. Lee Gelernt, who is leading the legal challenge, says the groups had “no choice” but to sue because it was “legally indistinguishable” from former President Donald Trump's actions.
About half of U.S. adults approve of Donald Trump’s recent felony conviction, according to a poll from The Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research. The findings paint a picture of a nation with firmly entrenched opinions of the divisive former Republican president less than five months before Election Day. Overall views of Trump and Democratic President Joe Biden remain unchanged since before the guilty verdict in Trump's New York hush money trial. But the survey shows some modest signs of vulnerability for Trump as he tries to become the first American with a felony record to win the presidency.
