Crowd protests conditions inside ICE detention center in Newark

A small crowd of protesters gathered outside Delaney Hall in Newark, New Jersey, on Thursday to demonstrate over allegations of poor conditions at the immigration detention center. One woman whose husband was housed inside the center told CBS News New York that a fight broke out at lunch because the prisoners had allegedly not been fed for about 20 hours, and then were only given a small amount of food. A small crowd of people gathered outside Delaney Hall in Newark, New Jersey, on June 12, 2025, angry over alleged poor conditions at the immigration detention center. Chopper 2 "He said for that reason, a small group of people had started to rile up and started to riot. He said they were breaking things, just trying to get anybody's attention because they are constantly ignored. I asked my husband what was his role and part in it, and he said, 'I'm hiding. I'm scared for my life,'" the woman said. Protesters said the prisoners were also angry over visitation hours. CBS News New York reached out to U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement and the Newark Police Department, but has not yet heard back. Delaney Hall was the site of a protest last month that resulted in the arrest of Newark Mayor Ras Baraka by ICE agents on federal trespassing charges. Baraka has since filed a lawsuit over the arrest. The mayor has claimed the 1,000-bed facility opened without the necessary permits and blocked inspections. The Department of Homeland Security has denied those allegations. Earlier this year, ICE signed a 15-year, $60 million contract with the private prison company, Geo Group, to run Delaney Hall.

Trump Administration Blocks California EV Rules, Threatens Higher Tariffs

The Trump administration officially blocked a rule in California that would have banned the sale of purely gas-powered cars in the state starting in 2035. On Thursday, the president signed joint resolutions of Congress—effectively serving as a federal law to revoke California's policy. The president also threatened to raise automotive tariffs in the near future as a way to increase domestic auto manufacturing. On Thursday, President Trump signed joint resolutions of Congress that block California's attempt to ban the sale of purely gas-powered cars in its state. Allowed to stand, the California rule would have required that electric cars make up progressively larger shares of new car sales each year—until 2035, at which point the sale of new internal-combustion cars would be banned—though, under CAFE, plug-in hybrids would continue to be allowed. Justin Sullivan | Getty Images By signing the joint resolutions of Congress, which were passed by a Republican majority in May, Trump reversed the Biden administration's previous approval of the California law. According to a report by , Trump, speaking at the signing event, called the plan a "disaster" and said it would "effectively abolish the internal combustion engine, which most people prefer." The resolutions also revoke two other California clean-air policies—one requiring half of all new trucks sold in the state to be electric by 2035 and the other limiting the amount of nitrogen oxide cars and trucks emit. In addition to signing the joint resolutions, the president also threatened to increase U.S. automotive tariffs from their current 25 percent. The president said raising auto tariffs from their current level could provide more protection for the domestic auto industry. "I might go up with that tariff in the not too distant future," Trump said. "The higher you go, the more likely it is they build a plant here." The latest threat comes roughly a week after the president increased tariffs on foreign aluminum and steel to 50 percent, further increasing pressure on automakers.

Beat the Market With These Cash-Gushing Dividend Stocks

Written by Robin Brown at The Motley Fool Canada Dividend stocks are known for boring businesses that only generate modest total returns after they pay their dividends. While this is true for some dividend stocks, it is a generalization that shrewd investors should look beyond. Some of the best-performing stocks in Canada pay a modest, growing dividend. Even with the dividend, they can still re-invest capital to grow and compound their business. They are harder to find. However, if you are willing to sacrifice some yield for better total returns, there are some gems that could be highly rewarding in the Canadian market. If you want dividend income but also want to beat the market, these cash-gushing dividend stocks could be interesting today. Canadian Natural Resources (TSX:CNQ) is one of Canada's top cash cows. Certainly, as an energy producer, it is subject to commodity pricing. However, it has built its operations to withstand a variety of challenging environments. It has an industry-leading low cost of production. The company has dialled in its production to factory efficiency. Consequently, even at low energy prices, it can generate strong free cash flows. Likewise, it has large businesses in both oil and gas. Gas prices have been more resilient in 2025, so that helps offset the volatility in oil prices. Canadian Natural is built for the decades. It has energy reserves that could last for more than 50 years ahead. CNQ has a record of growing its annual dividend for the past 25 years (at a 20% rate, no less)! Today, it yields 5.4%, and its valuation is relatively attractive if you have a long investment horizon. Another stock that gushes cash is Canadian Pacific Kansas City (TSX:CP). As opposed to CNQ, it has a miniscule dividend yield of 0.82%. While that isn't large, the company is in a position to generate strong total returns in the coming years. Since CP acquired Kansas City Southern at the end of 2021, it has consistently delivered some of the best results in the industry. A combination of synergies, operational improvements, and an expanded North America-wide network is creating substantial growth opportunities. CP has quickly been reducing debt from its acquisition. Last quarter, it returned to a dividend-growth posture by increasing its dividend by 20%. It also announced a 4% share buyback. All in all, the company is in a strong position to keep outperforming the industry. Further returns to shareholders are likely as it continues to execute and maximize cash generation. A final dividend stock worth buying for market-beating returns is TFI International (TSX:TFII). This is a bit of a riskier play because the trucking environment has been abysmal in the past few years. TFI's stock is down 36% this year. However, that is also where the opportunity lies. TFI's stock is beaten down. Any improvement in the economic environment will help push up TFI's earnings. The company is a very lean operator. It is an expert at acquiring transport companies and turning them into cash machines. It could use the downturn to be opportunistic in its acquisition agenda. The company has some work to do to clean up its U.S. operations. However, if it is successful, investors could see a nice uptick in earnings and cash generation. If you don't mind holding a stock with a bit of haze around it, now could be a great time to add TFI. It yields 2% today and has a record of annually increasing its dividend.
