Today’s Headlines: The stock market had a rough day, with the S&P 500 dropping 2.7% and the Dow plunging nearly 900 points—the worst day of the year—thanks to Trump’s shifting tariff policies. Tesla stock also took a 15% dive, hitting its lowest price since October. Meanwhile, DHS detained Columbia student Mahmoud Khalil over alleged Hamas ties, but a judge has temporarily blocked his deportation. The Supreme Court is set to review Colorado’s conversion therapy ban, a case that could affect similar laws across the country. And in health news, a measles case was reported in Maryland, while the NIH is cutting funding for vaccine hesitancy research.
