Watch live: Marjorie Taylor Greene gives remarks at town hall
Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) is slated to hold a town hall Tuesday afternoon in Cobb County, Ga., a suburb of Atlanta won by former Vice President Kamala Harris in November.
Greene, who has been a vocal ally for President Trump, will join a list of Republicans who have held in-person events despite guidance not to do so. The Georgia Republican is also the chair of the House Oversight and Government Reform Subcommittee on Delivering on Government Efficiency.
The event comes after the GOP lawmaker threw money into slumping stocks last week amid concern over Trump's latest tariff announcement and a global trade war. The move has been criticized by those on the other side of the aisle, including House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-N.Y.), and brought a potential stock trading ban for government officials back into the spotlight.
The town hall is scheduled to begin at 6 p.m. EDT.

Will Trump invoke the Insurrection Act? 'We'll see,' he says
Will Trump invoke the Insurrection Act? 'We'll see,' he says Show Caption Hide Caption Anti-ICE raid demonstrators protest into fourth night Anti-immigration raid protests are continuing into the fourth night as the Pentagon deployed active-duty U.S. Marines. President Donald Trump mulled invoking the Insurrection Act, which would give him more leeway to use the military for domestic purposes, as he deploys troops to Los Angeles in response to protests prompted by ICE raids in the region. "If there's an insurrection, I would certainly invoke it,' Trump said June 10 during an event in the White House. 'We'll see. But I can tell you, last night was terrible. The night before that was terrible." Trump deployed the California National Guard to Los Angeles over the objection of Gov. Gavin Newsom, sparking a lawsuit from the state. Marines were also sent to help the guard after protests erupted over his immigration enforcement efforts. The troops are limited to protecting federal property and law enforcement officers. The Insurrection Act would give Trump authority to use them more broadly. More: 'High-stakes game': Trump-Newsom clash pits two political heavyweights Trump said there were parts of Los Angeles on June 9 where "you could have called it an insurrection. It was terrible." Newsom described Trump's actions as "the acts of a dictator" and accused the president of 'inciting and provoking violence,' 'creating mass chaos,' and 'militarizing cities.' Legal experts say invoking the Insurrection Act is an extreme step. It has been done 30 times in U.S. history. "The invocation of it would be viewed as a pretty dramatic act," said Duke Law Professor H. Jefferson Powell. Powell said the law is "dangerously broad." The last time the Insurrection Act was invoked was in May 1992, by President George H.W. Bush at the request of California's governor, to quell rioting in Los Angeles after four White police officers were acquitted for beating Black motorist Rodney King.

US still dependent on Canadian oil, despite Trump's claims, Cenovus CEO says
CALGARY (Reuters) -The U.S. is still reliant on Canadian oil imports, despite claims made by U.S. President Donald Trump, Cenovus Energy's CEO said on Tuesday at a conference in Calgary, Alberta.

Canada also remains dependent on U.S. energy systems, Cenovus CEO Jon McKenzie said, adding the country must diversify its customer base.
