US President Donald Trump referred to the slain Indian-origin motel manager Chandra Mouli "Bob" Nagamallaiah as what in his Truth Social post?
a well-respected personPresident Donald Trump described Chandra Mouli "Bob" Nagamallaiah, the Indian-origin motel manager brutally killed in Dallas, as a "well-respected person" in a post on Truth Social. The incident involved Nagamallaiah being beheaded by a co-worker, an undocumented Cuban immigrant with a violent criminal history. Trump used the case to criticize former President Joe Biden’s immigration policies, calling the attacker an "illegal alien" who should have been deported. He emphasized that the accused would be charged with first-degree murder and prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. This statement aligns with Trump's hardline stance on illegal immigration and border security.

What reason did Brazil’s President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva give for opposing the 50% tariff imposed by the US under President Trump?
It was political and illogicalBrazil’s President Lula opposed the 50% US tariff on Brazilian goods, calling it "political" and "illogical," especially since it followed a Supreme Court ruling against former President Jair Bolsonaro for attempting a coup. Lula argued that the tariff was unjustified and not based on economic reasoning, citing a $410 billion US surplus in bilateral trade over 15 years. He stressed that while Brazil is open to negotiations, its democracy and sovereignty are non-negotiable. The tariff was linked to Trump’s criticism of the judicial process in Brazil, which Lula defended as legitimate and necessary to uphold democratic institutions. Thus, Lula framed the tariff as retaliatory and politically motivated rather than economically sound.
