Summary

There's a new Pope in town, the first American. We discuss what we know about the new pontiff.

This week, President Trump says he wants the world to see the United States as a "luxury store." But who can afford it?U.S. ports say the trade war is already slowing traffic. We get to the latest on trade talks.

Also, more on the right to due process and fresh U.S. intelligence that undercuts arguments about the president's power to remove those in the U.S. without legal status to prisons overseas.

The latest as tensions escalate between India and Pakistan. Israel ramps up its war in Gaza. Vice President Vance calls out the Kremlin for stalled efforts to agree a peace deal with Ukraine.

And during his visit to the White House, Canada's newly elected prime minister tells President Trump what's up for debate and what's not for sale.

The News Roundup covers the biggest stories from this week.
