Two senior administration officials tell CNN.

President Donald Trump is holding a cabinet meeting today.

It comes as the administration faces legal challenges over deportation flights and prepares to unveil new tariffs beginning next month.

Trump has been hyping up April 2nd as liberation day, a moment where he has said sweeping reciprocal tariffs would take place.

But now, Bloomberg and the Wall Street Journal is reporting the Trump administration is dialing back on that, and the stock market's pretty happy to hear that.

The White House told CNN no final decisions have been made and negotiations with trade partners like the EU, Mexico and Canada are ongoing.

CNN's Elizabeth Buckwaltz here to explain another tariff plan Trump just announced this morning.

So, Christa, just as we were starting to get comfortable with the idea that there might be some delays on tariffs, Trump posted on Truth Social this morning that any country purchasing Venezuelan oil can face a 25% tariff.

It's not clear exactly what it would be, but the US does purchase a whole lot of oil from Venezuela, so we could start to see gas prices move up here.

The US quietly dropped terrorism charges against an alleged high-ranking MS13 gang leader and deported him to El Salvador.

It's part of a controversial deal between the Trump administration and El Salvador's president.

To send migrants accused of crimes in the US to the country.

US investigators believe the alleged gang member could have information linking Salvadorian officials to secret deals with the violent gang.

One former federal agent who spent years working on MS13 and other gang cases called the transfer a quote historical loss.

An attorney for Cesar Umberto Lopez Larios and Salvadorian officials didn't respond to requests for comment.

Court documents show Lopez Larios was deported on one of those controversial flights under the 1798 Alien Enemies Act.

Today, the Trump administration is trying to get an appeals court to overturn a federal judge's ruling that temporarily blocked the deportation flights.

Russia and Ukraine have traded attacks overnight as high-stake ceasefire talks have started between US and Russian officials in Saudi Arabia's capital today.

It comes as US foreign envoy Steve Witkoff has praised Russian President Vladimir Putin and echoed Kremlin talking points in a podcast interview with Tucker Carlson.

And speaking to Fox News yesterday, Witkoff said this about parts of Ukraine illegally annexed by Russia, there is a view within the country of Russia that these are Russian territories, that there are referendums within these territories that justify these actions.

I simply have said that I just don't see that he wants to take all of Europe.

This is a much different situation than it was in World War II.

In World War II, there was no NATO.

CNN has previously pointed out that voting in those territories has been carried out at gunpoint, with one resident saying the results were a foregone conclusion.

Today, the Supreme Court is hearing arguments over Louisiana's congressional districts.

It's been a years-long messy legal battle that could have nationwide implications for how race is considered in congressional maps.

In 2022, a federal court ruled Louisiana needed to create a second majority black district, but a group of self-described non-African-American voters sued in 2024.

Arguing the state violated the Constitution by relying too much on race in the court's 2022 ruling.

Congress has a narrow Republican majority, and any decision could be a factor in deciding who controls the House of Representatives after the midterms.

The White House Easter egg roll is for sale, apparently.

That's next.

The White House is soliciting corporate sponsors for this year's Easter egg roll.

A decision that's shocking ethics experts and former White House officials from both major parties.

The sponsorship offers range from $75,000 to $200,000 with the promise of logo and branding opportunities, according to a document seen by CNN.

The Easter egg roll has been privately funded for many years, but what's different about this year is the explicit promise of branding visibility.

And this goes against long established regulations which ban the use of public office for private gain.

All right, that's all for now, I'm Christa Bo and our next episode drops at 3:00 p.m. Eastern.

Till next time.
