🎧 The president’s satisfaction with the compromise suggests it might include some limited transfer of land ownership and will likely address U.S. access to mineral rights, reporter Teri Schultz tells Up First. She adds that European leaders may feel that they can breathe a bit more easily now that Trump has walked back his threats of military force and tariffs. Even though Trump has called off the tariffs, the emergency summit will still be held with much less pressure than expected. Schultz says the leaders will most likely now discuss contingency plans in case the Greenland deal falls apart and the threats start again.

🎧 It is hard to recall a time when this level of friction was seen between the leaders of the U.S. and Canada, says NPR’s Greg Myre. Carney did not mention Trump by name in his speech. However, in Trump’s speech, he said that Carney wasn’t grateful and that Canada lives because of the U.S. Over the past year, Trump threatened tariffs on Canada, imposed them, and then paused some. These actions have increased tensions over trade between the two countries, Myre says. 

🎧 The high court has generally allowed Trump broad authority to fire officials from other independent agencies, like the Federal Trade Commission, says NPR’s Scott Horsley. However, this time around, the justices have signaled that the Federal Reserve is a special case. Yesterday, Cook’s lawyer, Paul Clement, stressed that Congress set up the Fed to be insulated from political pressure. Interest rates are not officially the reason Trump wants Cook fired. The president and his allies have accused Cook of making false statements on mortgage applications. Horsley says the justices appear skeptical that Cook could be dismissed for that reason without having an opportunity to make her case.
