Trump administration pushes economic policies as the Federal Reserve debates interest rates

The Trump administration is rolling out a series of economic and regulatory actions. These include a new push to lower prescription drug prices, an executive order aimed at boosting production of the weedkiller ingredient glyphosate, and efforts to cut regulations. The administration is also facing criticism over its tariff policies and their impact on consumers.

Meanwhile, the Federal Reserve is signaling it will keep interest rates on hold for now. Minutes from the Fed's latest meeting show officials want to see more evidence that inflation is slowing before they consider cutting rates. This has led to a split among policymakers about the future path for borrowing costs.
