And I had to come up with $15,000 of extra cash to release my goods just this last month.

Even if we pass some to the consumer, we can't pass it all. So I really think the honest answer is that businesses will close.

If you don't, we will find you and we will deport you. You will never return.

Up First from NPR · DHS job cuts, Travel troubles under Trump, Sudan Civil War latest · 22 Mar 2025 podcast

That's because what were once seen as minor visa violations are now triggering major scrutiny from immigration officials.

Here's a question that's become something of a refrain over the last several weeks. Is the U.S. in a constitutional crisis?

President Trump speaking yesterday at the White House. And joining us now is NPR senior contributor Ron Elving. Hey, Ron.

So to that question that keeps getting invoked, what do you say, Ron, is a constitutional crisis at hand?

So sticking with immigration for a second, there were some notable cuts announced yesterday to a division within the Department of Homeland Security or DHS. What can you tell us about those?

Now, I think it's worth noting it has not even been a week since members of the Trump administration and the Doge team took over the U.S. Institute of Peace, which is a congressionally funded think tank. Where is Congress in all of this?

That's NPR's Ron Elving. Thanks so much for your time, Ron.

If you have a green card or a valid visa, getting into the U.S. is usually straightforward.

But lately, officers have stepped up their questions and sent some people with apparently minor visa violations to detention centers.

Sudan's army took control of the presidential palace on Friday after days of intense fighting with the paramilitary rapid support forces known as RSF.

Fighting continues across Sudan, but this is likely to be a key turning point. NPR's West Africa correspondent Emmanuel Akinwotu has been covering this and joins us now. Thanks for being with us today.

So if you could, just tell us more about what happened in the Capitol yesterday.

So this seems at least like a major symbolic victory. But how does this change the course of this war? Is it now closer to an end?

And that humanitarian crisis we hear about has been worsening in Sudan. Can you give us the latest?

NPR's West Africa correspondent Emmanuel Akinwotu, thank you.

Finally, a moment to remember boxing great and grill master George Foreman. He became the heavyweight champion of the world twice. First in his 20s, he then lost his title in 1974 to Muhammad Ali in one of the sport's most storied matches, known as the Rumble in the Jungle.
