17.04.2025 โ‡ข Death at Florida State as Powell and Harvard Face Trump's Wrath
โŒจThe newspapers chronicled Trump's escalating confrontations with Federal Reserve Chair Powell and Harvard University. After Powell warned about inflation from tariffs, Trump demanded his "termination" in an extraordinary attack that rattled markets. Harvard faced potential revocation of its tax-exempt status and restrictions on international student enrollment as punishment for resisting administration demands.

The judicial-executive standoff over Abrego Garcia intensified as an appeals court rejected administration challenges in "blistering" language, calling their defiance "shocking." The Supreme Court scheduled rare May arguments on Trump's attempt to end birthright citizenship.

By evening, attention shifted to Florida State University where a 20-year-old student, son of a sheriff's deputy, killed two people and injured six in a mass shooting. Google faced antitrust problems after a federal judge ruled it maintained an illegal monopoly in online advertising.
