MAGA Couple Regrets Trump Vote After Terrifying Border Patrol Stop
Two Trump voters allege that Border Patrol agents racially profiled them after they were stopped and questioned on the way to the dentist. George and Esmeralda Doilez, both U.S. citizens, were driving to an appointment in Southern California on Wednesday when a dark SUV started to follow them. George told a San Diego NBC affiliate that the SUV put on a siren, pulled them over, and a group of masked Border Patrol agents got out to question them. The Doilezes told NBC7 that they had been scoping out potential camping sites in the area on the way to the dental appointment. George and Esmeralda voted for Trump in 2020, both of their first time voting, and again in 2024. In a video of the interaction, a Border Patrol agent questions George through the car window. 'If you have a dentist appointment, it probably wasn't the best idea to be out in the middle of nowhere,' the agent tells him. 'We have the right to travel anywhere we want to travel,' George says. 'You're absolutely right, you do, and I actually have the right and authority to stop you,' the agent replies. 'It's called reasonable suspicion.' The stated reason for the stop was that a 'known alien' had been detected in the area, which is about 9 miles from the Southern Border. The agent said the Doilezes had aroused suspicion by making several U-turns. But the couple said they thought the true rationale for the stop was their skin color. 'Why are we not allowed to be here? Because we're not white? Our skin doesn't match?' George told NBC7. The agent called a K-9 unit, which detected a small amount of legally purchased cannabis in the car. Citing that finding as probable cause, the agents searched George and Esmeralda's car before letting them go about 30 minutes after the encounter began. 'I'm gonna go ahead and let you off with a warning,' the agent said after he told them he could have ticketed them for having marijuana. In the wake of the incident, which left George 'terrified' and his wife 'shaking and crying,' the couple said that they regretted their votes for Trump. 'I feel shame, guilt, and anger at the same time because of the promises that he made that he lied to us about, going after the worst of the worst,' George said. 'He lied on those and he stole our vote.' Despite Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) policies dictating that the agency cannot lawfully detain U.S. citizens, the agencies have detained dozens of citizens—including an electrician in New York and a tow yard employee near Los Angeles—per CNN. Echoing Doilez's frustration with Trump's promise to target the 'worst of the worst,' internal ICE data obtained by NBC shows that about half of those in custody have been neither convicted nor charged with a crime. 'Complying is going to get you in a prison concentration camp,' George said. 'That's what it's going to do eventually. Maybe it might be sooner than we all think.' A media contact for Customs and Border Patrol did not respond to an immediate request for comment. Solve the daily Crossword

One in four Trump supporters has concerns about tariff policy
A recent poll reveals that many of Donald Trump 's voters have reservations about his tariff policies, especially those targeting China. Only half of Trump voters surveyed believe that his tariffs on China will ultimately benefit US companies. Roughly one in four Trump voters expressed concerns that the tariffs are damaging the US's ability to negotiate trade agreements with other nations. Trump's supporters are nearly evenly split on whether he should require Congressional approval to impose tariffs or if he should possess the sole authority. While 46 per cent of Trump voters support tariffs on China even if they lead to higher domestic prices, a quarter of them also think these tariffs are detrimental to US companies.

The Republican Strategy to Win Without Trump on the Ballot
WASHINGTON—A political organization tied to House Republican leadership is pouring millions of dollars into polling and advertising in a new effort to fix a nagging problem for the party: Many of President Trump's voters don't show up for midterm elections, when he isn't on the ballot. Getting them to cast ballots is crucial to the GOP's hopes of keeping—and potentially increasing—its narrow 220-212 House majority next year, said Chris Winkelman, president of the Congressional Leadership Fund, a super political-action committee affiliated with House Speaker Mike Johnson (R., La.). Winkelman said CLF's efforts are focusing on 'prosperity voters'—people who value work and success. He said that surveys show the group cuts across class and party lines.

Oil Holds Advance as US Trade Deal With Vietnam Lifts Sentiment
(Bloomberg) -- Oil steadied after its biggest gain in almost two weeks, as a US trade deal with Vietnam boosted optimism further agreements will be made by next week's cutoff. NYC Commutes Resume After Midtown Bus Terminal Crash Chaos Struggling Downtowns Are Looking to Lure New Crowds What Gothenburg Got Out of Congestion Pricing Massachusetts to Follow NYC in Making Landlords Pay Broker Fees California Exempts Building Projects From Environmental Law West Texas Intermediate traded above $67 a barrel after surging more than 3% on Wednesday, with Brent crude closing near $69. The deal with Vietnam would be just the third announced following agreements with the UK and China, as trading partners race to cut agreements with the US ahead of a July 9 deadline. Crude has been buffeted in recent weeks, surging and collapsing along with perceived geopolitical risk in the Middle East, although trading has calmed in recent days. Focus is returning to trade talks, and the associated tariffs that threaten oil demand, as well as to Sunday's OPEC+ meeting, at which the producer group is widely expected to agree on another bumper increase in supply.
