President Donald Trump ordered the Pentagon and other U.S. agencies to release files related to UFOs and any information tied to “alien and extraterrestrial life.” The directive prompted a review of classified and unclassified records on unidentified aerial phenomena, with defense and intelligence officials assessing what can be disclosed without compromising national security. The move followed years of military reports about unexplained objects and increased calls from lawmakers and the public for greater transparency on government-held UFO data.

President Donald Trump signed a new order imposing a 10% tariff on all imports into the United States just hours after the Supreme Court struck down an earlier global tariff plan. The new measure applies to goods from every country and is part of the administration’s broader tariff-based trade strategy. Legal experts, businesses, foreign governments and members of Congress are reviewing the order’s scope, legal basis and potential economic impact as enforcement and possible challenges begin.
