As his administration reaches its 100-day mark, President Trump is set to tout his second-term accomplishments with his first rally since his inauguration on Tuesday.
The president is sure to celebrate his administration's work on immigration, tariffs, reducing the size of the federal government and more at the evening event in Macomb County, Mich.
The administration on Tuesday is set to ease planned tariffs on automakers to allow them more time for preparations. Press secretary Karoline Leavitt said at a morning press briefing that Trump would sign an executive order later in the day that would reset the clock for automakers.
A key player in Trump's tariff plan is China. On Tuesday, the Senate confirmed a new ambassador to the communist nation, former Sen. David Perdue (R-Ga.)
Much of Trump's agenda rests in the hands of Congress, which starts Tuesday debating the finer points of a reconciliation bill that will fund everything from tax cuts to defense while cutting costs in other programs to balance the budget.
Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) met with Trump on Monday and expressed confidence that Trump's tax agenda could be passed by Memorial Day, less than a month away. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent gave the package a July Fourth deadline.
Follow along all day for updates.
