U.K. EU seal fresh deals after Brexit milestone
Britain and the European Union signed new agreements on defense cooperation and trade to ease flows and reduce red tape. Prime Minister Keir Starmer and EU Commission President Ursula von der Leyen called the summit historic as both sides seek a closer post Brexit relationship and a boost to jobs and borders. The talks include a 12 year extension of EU fishing access, a new EU loan program for defense worth 170 billion dollars, and measures to loosen border checks on animal and plant products while aligning with EU rules. Critics argue the moves betray Brexit while supporters say Britain is back on the world stage.

Supreme Court allows stripping TPS protections from Venezuelans
The Supreme Court allowed the Trump administration to revoke Temporary Protected Status for about 350,000 Venezuelans, potentially causing deportations. The order pauses a San Francisco judge’s ruling that had kept TPS in place, with no stated rationale. Venezuelans in the US fear loss of safety as families face uncertainty and possible detention.
