On Tuesday, the government agency made the new development public.
The department reported that 407 “derivative” steel and aluminum products are being added to the list of “derivative” steel and aluminum products that are subject to sectoral tariffs, with a 50% tariff on any steel and aluminum products that contain these items.
The department is also lowering the new tariffs for electrical steel needed for electric vehicles and imported parts for automotive exhaust systems.
A group of foreign automakers had urged the US to refrain from adding the components, claiming domestic domestic demand was insufficient to handle the current demand.
Compressors and pumps are included in the new tariffs, which go into effect right away.
According to Under Secretary of Commerce for Industry and Security Jeffrey Kessler, “Today’s action expands the reach of the steel and aluminum tariffs and shuts down avenues for circumvention.” This will help the American steel and aluminum industries continue to grow.
Cleveland-Cliffs, a group of steelmakers, had petitioned the administration to increase the tariffs to include additional aluminum and steel auto parts.
Trump has imposed a 10% tariff on almost all of its trading partners since taking office, as well as varying higher tariffs on dozens of economies, including Japan and the European Union.
These country-wide tariff levels were not applied to certain industries, but they were instead subject to even higher duties from various authorities.
Some businesses have already been forced to raise prices as a result of higher tariffs. Home Depot announced on Tuesday that it would need to raise prices for imported goods it sells in the wake of its earnings report.
On a Tuesday conference call, Home Depot’s Chief Financial Officer Richard McPhail stated that “some categories will experience moderate price movement.”
Tommy Fury recently admitted he had a ‘horrible’ year after receiving backlash on social media over his split from Molly-Mae Hague. The duo were the UK’s ‘it couple’ after meeting on Love Island in 2019, where they both fell head over heels for each other and became a fan-favourite of the show.
They became one of the strongest couples formed on the dating programme and shared glimpses into their growing romance with eager fans. Soon after moving in together, the two welcomed their two-year-old daughter, Bambi. When Tommy got down on one knee to propose during a surprise trip to Ibiza in the summer of 2023, fans were over the moon that their favourite couple were finally taking the next step in their relationship.
However, things weren’t as they seemed behind closed doors. By the next summer, Molly-Mae shocked the entire showbiz world when she took to her Instagram Stories and announced the couple had split up after five years together. It comes after Tyson Fury’s huge net worth is revealed as Morecambe face going out of business.
“Never in a million years did I think I’d ever have to write this”, Molly-Mae wrote last summer. I never had anticipated our story would end, especially not in this way after five years of being together. I am extremely upset to announce that mine and Tommy’s relationship has come to an end.
My beautiful daughter will always be my most important possession, and I will always be so. Without us there would be no her, she will always be my priority. “
She went on to thanks fans for their support over the years, adding:” You have all been a part of our journey and I feel it’s right to share this with you all. Please kindly respect my privacy during this challenging time as I try to navigate the upcoming days and weeks, and I’ll return when it feels right.
Tommy soon shared a statement of his own, telling fans:” I am heartbroken to share that Molly &, I have decided to end our relationship. I will forever be grateful to Molly for making me a father after having our beautiful baby girl, Bambi &, for the past five years. Bambi is our priority.
As we navigate this challenging time, please respect our privacy and that of our families. However, internet sleuths couldn’t help but wonder what the true reason was behind their shock breakup.
Fans questioned Molly-Mae’s statement’s language and questioned why she didn’t anticipate their relationship to end “in this way.” Sleuths soon started their deep dive into their split. Soon after Tommy cheated on the Maebe founder, rumors started to spread, and Tommy was quick to refute these claims in numerous statements and interviews.
In an interview with Men’s Health UK earlier this year, Tommy said the cheating rumours were ‘ complete and utter bulls***’. He claimed that because of a problem with alcohol and being unable to be the person I wanted to be anymore, we broke up. It kills me to say it, but I couldn’t”.
The TV personality said “cheating was never a thing” as he insisted: “There’s been so much s— in the papers every single day for the past six months, but if it’s not come from my mouth or Molly’s mouth, it’s complete and utter bulls***”.
A few months after the couple’s engagement, rumors about him seeing other women started. In November 2023, fans wondered whether they split after videos of him speaking to women in clubs and partying in Dubai with Chris Brown started circulating on TikTok.
Molly-Mae was seen without her engagement ring, but she didn’t comment on the videos.
There were also whispers concerning Tommy and a blonde Danish girl he supposedly met while on holiday with friends in North Macedonia. The claims, which he insisted were false, reportedly caused Tommy to be “horrified.”
A source told The Sun: “Molly was told he had cheated on with a Danish woman he’d met while he was away in Macedonia”. She objected because it was untrue. When she confronted him and asked if he had cheated on her, Tommy didn’t deny it. Molly-Mae received all the information it needed, and it was over. He has moved out of the house and she is absolutely reeling from it all. “
The Danish woman in question later later denied having been involved in a kissing incident that occurred during an early-night drinking session at INclusive, a nightclub in the historic Macedonian city of Ohrid.
Jewellery assistant Milla Corfixen, whose family originates from Macedonia, revealed that Tommy had been a ‘ proper gentleman ‘ during their hangout together.
She continued, “I am the girl, but nothing happened,” in a subsequent interview with The Sun. We just had fun. Despite being Danish, I also hail from here. I don’t know what he’s been doing but someone else must have kissed him. Back home, I have a boyfriend.
She shared her desire to talk to Molly-Mae directly about the gossip and continued:” We did not do anything. Since he is essentially married and has a young child, I would never have done anything with him.
One TikToker by the name of Kay Keogh joined the rumour train and claimed she’d received flirty messages, including fire emojis, from Tommy after meeting him on a night out in Manchester.
She told her followers, “I was considering whether I should make this video or not, but I am going to.” She posted a screenshot of the message allegedly sent from his account. So, me and my friends were out in Manchester and we actually met him]Tommy] one night. I didn’t really connect the two and two of who he really was because we were having a night out with a group of guys.
“One of the guys asked for my Instagram, which I gave to him. We were all together, but I actually became aware of who he was after I looked up my phone and saw his name. Obviously, after I saw his name pop up I was thinking ‘ What the hell’. I then, of course, became aware of who he was, but I actually have direct messages from people who are not sure whether to publish them.
The clip cut to screenshotted messages which allegedly showed the boxer sending a flame emoji, to which Kay responded: “?”?. Additionally, Kay claimed that Tommy said, “Are you in Manchester?”
Not long after, Kay admitted that she had been catfished, as she’d received a message from another account stating they were behind the fake account. She explained that she had fallen for the messages after seeing a person who resembled the Love Island star in person.
Tommy has denied the cheating claims multiple times, but ahead of the publication of his memoir, he told Mail Online he had hopes of reconciliation as he set the record start.
He responded, “Absolutely not. I think if you were going to cheat on someone you should just sit down and say, ‘ I don’t love you any more, ‘ clearly because you want to go and pursue other people.
You should just say “nothing at that stage,” according to the saying. If you want to go out there and have affairs with women then you definitely shouldn’t be with your partner. Without a doubt. And have I ever reached that point? “No.
Emphasising that he has never been tempted to stray, Tommy, who vows he’ll ‘ love Molly-Mae until his final breath’, went on to praise his ex as the ‘ perfect woman ‘ and ‘ perfect mother’. He added that he “absolutely wants his family to be back together once more,” and that things “will work out.”
Fans went into a frenzy on December 20,24 when a video that appeared to show Tommy and Molly-Mae kissing on New Year’s Eve went viral. Molly-Mae later discussed the video and told the BBC:” This is a whole new territory for me. I and Tommie.
“Our relationship has always been in the public eye, but to deal with this breakup, with millions of eyes watching, it is hard, it is complicated”.
After pictures of removal vans being spotted at the house he was living in, it was reported that the boxer re-located to his Cheshire mansion in the spring of this year.
Molly-Mae soon confirmed the two reunited for a sunny holiday to Dubai with Bambi, telling fans: “We’re just figuring things out. Our time was truly incredible, probably our best holiday ever.
Ahead of the release of his new documentary, Tommy: The Good. The negative The Fury, Tommy sat down for several interviews to discuss his struggles in 2024.
He admitted, “I had enough alcohol to last me a lifetime in 2024.” “Suddenly, one day, you find that all you can do is sit down and then a few of them (drinks), it takes the pain away. You forget what’s happening and where you are. And sometimes you want that feeling all the time, and that’s where obviously it starts”.
Tommy later admitted that he doesn’t even recognize the man when I look at him from the time. It’s just not me. I had no idea what I was thinking at the time. It was like the world going by, wasn’t bothered, and that’s just not me”.
The boxer claims he is now hardly touching any alcohol and hasn’t consumed any of it. “Going forward, if it’s a wedding or something like that, I might have a couple of drinks. Nobody should be doing it, he said, “four or five times per week is something nobody should be doing.”
It was her upping and leaving that really got Tommy into shape. When Tommy said, “I woke up one morning and everything was gone, Molly and the baby were gone.” That was the moment I thought, ‘ wow, what’s going on? ‘ And that’s when I first started trying to make changes.”
The opening episode of the new programme also showed his dad and boxing trainer, John, admitting that he urged Molly to leave Tommy, believing it was necessary to sober him up.
Tommy said, “I mean, I probably would have walked away from me as well.” “It was a tough moment in my life, but everything happens for a reason.
I’m grateful for the lessons I’ve learned, but I don’t believe I would have known half of what I know about myself if I haven’t experienced that.

In Basra, a vital port and oil hub, there is a humanitarian crisis being experienced in the southern region of the nation, which is being caused by drought and water shortages.
Nearly 3.5 million people live in Basra, which is the most water-scarce and climate-vulnerable region in Iraq, and are severely affected by inadequate water management.
Many people in need of daily water deliveries to ensure their health and survival are forced to rely on it.
Hasan Raykan, a resident of Basra, must travel a few kilometers each day to get his fair share of clean water. He claims that the budgeted funds hardly meet the needs of his family.
According to Raykan, “I have to get up early, leave my job, and stand in long lines to bring [water] home.”
“We have to control the ratios between domestic use and livestock in many cases.” Polluted seawater near our homes can lead to skin diseases.
Oil spills, agricultural runoff, and sewage discharge have all further deteriorated the quality of seawater, which is already unsuitable for human consumption.
Additionally, the Gulf’s saltwater has been steadily moving upriver thanks to the Shatt Al-Arab River, which supplies water from the Tigris and Euphrates, increasing salinity levels in the Basra region. Additionally, dams upstream are reducing the flow of freshwater.
The Abul Khaseeb district’s Mihayla desalination station has been in operation for more than a year.
High salt content water from the Shatt Al-Arab River is treated using a unique technique.
Sa’dun Abbud, senior engineer at the Mihayla Water Desalination Station, stated to Al Jazeera, “We produce nearly 72, 000 cubic meters]19 million gallons] of treated water every day, serving about 50% of Abul Khaseeb district.
Nearly 40, 000 total dissolved solids have been found in the Shatt Al-Arab River. The river is returned to the river after being desalinated.
Without prompt government intervention, the water crisis will only get worse, according to experts.
According to Alaa Al-Badrani, a water expert, “Basra has lost 26 to 30 different marine species.”
This has resulted in a new, hybrid environment that is neither suitable for freshwater nor seawater species. The water is also unfit for agriculture because the salinity is rising.
According to Hayder Al-Shakeri, research fellow in Chatham House’s Middle East and North Africa program, “Iraq’s water crisis is also the result of upstream restrictions and domestic neglect,” while lower rainfall and rising temperatures are global challenges.
Al-Shakeri claimed that corruption and self-interest in Iraq’s political elites make it easier for its neighbors Turkiye and Iran to negotiate deals that aren’t necessarily beneficial for the country.
In 2018, the water crisis was at its worst, with more than 118 hospital admissions indicating contamination. Fears of an outbreak are now resurrected.
Noel Gallagher has given his first interview since the start of the Oasis reunion tour and praised his brother Liam for “smashing it” whilst admitting his own legs “turned to jelly” on the first night.
When asked about the possibility of the band playing Knebworth next year, a concert that many fans are anticipating and now hope will occur, he also declined to comment.
Guitarist and Oasis songwriter Noel, 58, spoke to his pal Andy Goldstein and Darren Bent on TalkSport about his beloved Manchester City, before talk turned to the historic tour. It comes after Peggy Gallagher posed with a huge star at Oasis gig as she finally sees sons’ reunion tour.

Noel remarked of the reunion with Liam, “I was completely blown away.” It’s challenging to express in words. Every night is the crowd’s first night, which is why it always has a similar level of energy. But it has been truly amazing. Although I’m not typically short on words, I’m unable to really respond.
He continued, “We’re not really a band who kind of has huddles before we go on or anything like that,” on the band’s first night at Cardiff, which was their first gig in almost 20 years.
I can’t recommend anything else, but I completely underestimated what I was doing. After about five minutes, I thought, “Can I just go back to the dressing room and start this again?”
“I don’t mind telling you that I could have gotten worse for it about halfway through the second song.” It has been amazing.
Then, Noel glowingly described Liam and his brother. The pair have held hands throughout their performances at venues in Dublin, Edinburgh, London, and their hometown of Wembley as well as during Cardiff’s opening weekend.
He remarked, “We are not those kinda guys,” as he hugs them on stage. It’s wonderful to just be doing it again along with Bonehead and Liam. I’m assuming we will reflect on it when it is all said and done. I forgot how funny he was when I first saw him in the band and it’s good to be back with him.”
He praised Liam’s vocals, which have received widespread praise, and said, “I am proud of him. I’ve been playing in a band for 16 years, and I know how challenging that is. I had to say, “Man, I look at him and think “good for you mate,” but I couldn’t do the stadium thing like he does.
When Noel asked if Knebworth was taking place or when the tour would conclude, he replied, “Let’s talk football.
He mentioned Manchester City’s win over the weekend and then said he was looking forward to Oasis’ November showdown with Argentina’s River Plate stadium.
He added: “It’s the second last show, and we played there a couple of times, and Argentina, without doubt, is in the top five places for us to play in the world.
“We are going to Toronto on Friday, then we will spend the rest of the month in the States, travel to Mexico, and then return for two more Wembleys.”
“When it all started, there were a few people who I anticipated would be looking for tickets, but after the first performance, my phone exploded.” There was a wild search for it once they had seen it online.
He said: “Something else is happening that we haven’t put our finger on yet;” it was hysterical to see so many fans even if they weren’t outside singing along to the shows.
Oasis are currently touring in the United Kingdom and Ireland, with the exception of two additional Wembley appearances when they make their US debut.
Tickets went on sale last year, sparking unmatched demand. The gigs, which started in Cardiff on July 4, have sparked heartfelt scenes both on and off the stage.

Due to safety concerns posed by the Metropolitan Transportation Authority (MTA) of New York City, the USDOT has threatened to withhold up to 25% of federal transit funding from the MTA.
The federal government issued a final warning to city officials on Tuesday, calling on the local government to conduct a third risk assessment and take necessary steps to address the situation.
According to Marc Molinaro, the head of the Federal Transit Administration (FTA) under President Donald Trump, “I am disturbed by MTA’s failure to reinforce safety measures following one serious accident that resulted in the death of a transit worker.”
The Trump administration’s latest tidbit was about funding for public transportation, according to the Trump administration.
The White House used federal funds to ensure compliance with policy priorities in yet another instance.
However, President Joe Biden’s administration is responsible for handling the federal government’s complaint.
The transit administration issued a special directive (PDF) in August 2024, urging the MTA, the largest transit system in the country, to “take action to address an escalating pattern of safety incidents” involving its employees.
Hilarion Joseph, a MTA track worker’s death in November 2023, was the subject of that directive. As he watched the rails while cleaning the track, Joseph, a 57-year-old veteran, was struck by a northbound D train.
In June of this year, another MTA employee suffered serious injuries.
Federal officials previously expressed concern about the New York City transit system’s 58 percent increase in “near-misses,” which increased by 8% between 2022 and 2023.
The MTA had until 30 days to complete a new comprehensive risk assessment of its Roadway Worker Protection program in accordance with Tuesday’s final warning (PDF).
The Trump administration could impose “restrictions or prohibitions” on worker safety as well as withhold a portion of the MTA’s federal funding if they don’t meet the deadline.
In a government press release, Transportation Workers Union International President John Samuelsen stated that “the New York MTA has a decades-old pattern of exposing workers to harm’s way.”
The Federal Transit Administration must hold the MTA accountable for its errors, according to the Federal Transit Administration. Life is in the balance, ” “says the person.
The Trump administration’s tensions with New York City and state officials are not limited to safety concerns.
In response to accusations that the MTA had been raped, the Trump White House has previously threatened to reverse or revoke federal funding.
Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy referred to a “trend of violent crime, homelessness, and other threats to public safety on one of our nation’s most prominent metro systems” in a statement released in March.
He demanded details about New York City’s plans to reduce crime and demand that the city “clean up” its transportation system.
Their federal tax dollars will continue to be used to create a crime-free commute, Duffy said.
Officials in Washington have also brought up violent incidents in the MTA system, including one in which a woman was allegedly set on fire in a subway car late last year.
However, according to MTA data, crime in the transit system dropped by more than 18% in the first quarter of 2025, to reach its second-lowest level in 27 years.
Additionally, the Trump administration and local authorities have clashed over plans to implement “congestion pricing,” a toll-based system to ease congestion on Manhattan’s frequently congested streets.
Trump’s pledge to use the Department of Transportation to “kill” the new tolls earlier this year led to a Democrat governor’s statement denouncing his actions as overreaching from the federal government.
In February, Hochul said, “We sure as hell are not going to start now, and New York hasn’t labored under a king in over 250 years.”
A federal judge had already stepped in by May to temporarily halt the Trump administration’s efforts to combat congestion pricing.
Trump and his Republican Party face fiercely contested midterm elections in 2026, which is still a crucial battleground there.
There are “swing” districts in many areas of the state that can support Republican or Democratic candidates.
With the MTA’s future in the balance, the city is planning to hold a prominent mayoral race in November.
Zohran Mamdani, the Democratic nominee, has backed a pilot initiative that he supported in the New York State Assembly that temporarily established no-fare routes in some neighborhoods between 2023 and 2024.
According to a Siena College poll (PDF) released on August 12th, Mamdani currently leads his closest rival, former governor Andrew Cuomo, by 19 points.
