Today’s Headlines: On his 100th day in office, Trump got a blunt rejection from our neighbors up north: Canadian PM Mark Carney won reelection and used his victory speech to accuse Trump of trying to “own” Canada, while his conservative opponent—who ran on a “Canada First” platform—lost his seat entirely. Meanwhile, Elon Musk scored big as Trump rolled out a sweeping tariff rollback for automakers that will mean refunds and price breaks for U.S.-made cars (guess which brand qualifies). Amazon briefly considered showing shoppers how much Trump’s tariffs are costing them before backing off under pressure, while Walmart said they wouldn’t go there at all. ICE agents in Oklahoma raided the wrong house, forcing a mom and her three U.S. citizen daughters out in their pajamas and seizing their phones, valuables, and savings—with no suspects in sight. And Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth killed off a bipartisan Pentagon program supporting women in global conflict zones, calling it “woke” and “a distraction from war fighting.”
