- New tariffs target imports tied to forced labor as trade policy takes effect

- Description
- A new trade policy took effect Friday, imposing a fresh round of tariffs on global trading partners tied to allegations that they have failed to stop forced labor used to make products imported into the United States.
The new tariffs apply to 60 countries and range from 10% to 12.5%. Products from those countries make up 99% of U.S. imports.
“We have put our foot down, and we have told the countries, you need to take action. You need to prohibit the import of goods made with forced labor, and you need to enforce these laws so that we all have a level playing field,” Jamieson Greer, the United States trade representative, said Thursday.
Tariffs are a tax on imported goods and are typically passed down to the customer. The new fees take effect as temporary 10% tariffs on trading partners expired following a Supreme Court decision that overturned President Donald Trump’s “Liberation Day” policy implemented last year.
The new tariffs were imposed under a d...

- SANTA ROSA COUNTY, Fla. -- Three men are facing misdemeanor charges after Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) says an alligator was killed illegally in Santa Rosa County.
According to the incident report from the Santa Rosa County Clerk of Courts, Kevin Lacz, Richard Reder and Jason Griffin are accused of trapping and killing an alligator that lived in a Garcon Point retention pond without a valid nuisance alligator permit.
"She's lived here for many, many years. And she's never caused any problems," said Ashley Rogers with Pensacola Snake Rescue & Relocation Group. "She'd sort of become a representative of the community."
The report says that on March 15, Lacz -- a nuisance alligator trapper -- was responding to two calls along with alligator agents Richard Reder and Jason Griffin.

During a hearing before senators this week, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth said there is "definitely adversary alignment."

In a social media post Friday, President Donald Trump said Chinese President Xi Jinping and Russian President Vladimir Putin each previously told him they would not give weapons to Iran.

- MOBILE, Ala. -- The conversation continues about a potential teen curfew in Downtown Pensacola, as city leaders seem to be moving closer to an ordinance.
Mayor DC Reeves said Wednesday it would pertain to unaccompanied minors ages 17 and under -- 11 p.m. on weekdays and midnight on weekends. The idea follows a mass shooting on Palafox in early July -- resulting in one teen death and two teen arrests.
Across the state line in Alabama, the City of Mobile enforces a teen curfew for the downtown entertainment district during large scale events.
Staff at the Mobile Police Department say the restriction has cut down on crime.
"We have to put some type of enforcement in place just to make sure that we're protecting the community and the crowds," Mobile Police PIO Roderick Miles said Thursday.

Many of America's partners and allies are worried.
"The situation is getting out of control. It’s teetering on the edge of the unimaginable. The region is being pulled into an ever-widening circle of confrontation," United Nations Secretary-General António Guterres said Thursday.
Guterres urged warring leaders to end attacks on civilian infrastructure and return to diplomacy. Hours later, Trump claimed Iran wants to negotiate, "but I say they're not ready yet."
"There is no military solution to the conflict. Fighting must stop everywhere in the region. International navigational rights and freedoms in and around the Strait of Hormuz and Bab el-Mandeb must be fully restored," Guterres said.

The depot was originally built in 1882 and rebuilt after a fire in 1909. Today, it is filled with antiques, photographs, railroad equipment and fixtures from an era when railroads served as the nation's primary transportation network.

However, the rough weather didn't keep everyone away. The rain has been coming down on and off. That has definitely scared a few people off, but not everyone.
Lifeguards are staying busy, focusing on making sure people stay out of the water and avoid the deadly rip currents.
"We're really surprised about how big the waves are," said Tammy Lance, a Texas visitor.
Double red flags mean high surf and deadly rip currents. When these fly, people aren't allowed in the water.

"American blood changes the character of any situation," Sarraille said. "For President Trump, he now has the responsibility to respond. He also has further justification to impose harsher consequences that Iran cannot absorb."

- JAY, Fla. -- The Santa Rosa County Sheriff's Office conducted a "sex offender registry violation roundup" early Monday morning.
Multiple convicted offenders were arrested. This includes 50-year-old April Watson, who's in the running to be the Town of Jay's next manager.
The sheriff's office says they do these sweeps to find offenders who aren't updating their personal information.
In the state of Florida, convicted sex offenders and predators must make their local sheriff's office aware of any changes to their personal info or they could face felony charges.
On Monday, deputies arrested Watson and others for felony sex offender violations.
Watson -- the Town of Jay's current operations manager -- is a convicted sex offender who served 12 months in prison for having sex with students at Jay High School in 2007.
The sheriff's office say they do sex offender registry violation roundups several times a year.

- PENSACOLA BEACH, Fla. -- A burglary overnight at Crabs on Pensacola Beach left deputies searching for suspects after someone cut the business' power, drilled into a safe, and stole money, according to the Escambia County Sheriff's Office.
Deputies say the break-in happened overnight at Crabs, a restaurant on Pensacola Beach. Investigators believe there were likely multiple suspects involved.
The burglars targeted a safe used to hold deposit money, drilling into it before taking the cash, according to deputies.
The case remains under investigation, and deputies are actively looking for those responsible.
The sheriff's office says it is looking for at least three people.

- GULF BREEZE. Fla. -- A 19-year-old is facing charges of stealing a car and sending police on a high speed chase. This happened after Saturday's air show on Pensacola Beach.
The Escambia County Sheriff's Office first started the chase on the beach. The Florida Highway Patrol and Gulf Breeze Police later joined in.
The lone driver tried to flee the scene and resist arrest. Police identified that driver as Joan Vargas Rosario, who was later arrested.
If you were on Pensacola Beach or in Gulf Breeze Saturday night, there's a chance you saw part of this play out.
Videos of the chase are also gaining some traction online. Officers say the driver was weaving through traffic and hitting curbs.
Gulf Breeze Police Chief Richard Hawthorne says it's been years since he's seen something like this after the air show.
The Blue Angels weren't the only ones who put on a show Saturday night.

- New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani is renewing his vow to explore whether Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu could be arrested if he visits New York for the United Nations General Assembly this fall, touching off sharp criticism from Israeli officials, Republicans and some fellow Democrats.
Netanyahu has long been a familiar presence at the annual gathering of world leaders at U.N. headquarters in Manhattan, home to both the United Nations and the world's largest Jewish population outside of Israel. But this year's meeting is already shaping up to be more contentious after Mamdani said his administration is examining what legal authority, if any, the city has to act on an International Criminal Court warrant issued against the Israeli leader.

- The Trump administration is escalating its push for states to strengthen election security ahead of the 2026 midterm elections, urging election officials to remove ineligible voters from registration rolls, enhance voting system security and work more closely with federal agencies.
Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin outlined the administration’s priorities during a Friday news conference, one day after President Donald Trump delivered a nationally televised address focused on election integrity and alleged vulnerabilities in the nation’s election system.
The Department of Homeland Security said it has identified what it describes as hundreds of thousands of potential noncitizens on voter registration rolls in multiple states. The administration is also encouraging states to use the federal Systematic Alien Verification for Entitlements (SAVE) program to verify voter eligibility and has indicated future federal election reimbursements could be tied to e...
