Pardon applications being carefully crafted with one man in mind: Trump

Pounding away on a prison typewriter, Chad Scott seemed worlds apart from President Donald Trump. But when the disgraced narcotics agent wrote the White House seeking clemency for his corruption conviction, Scott sought to draw Trump's attention to what they have in common. Both men had survived a bullet wound to the ear, Scott wrote, and had been convicted of falsifying records. They were also each a victim of political persecution, the type of catchphrase the former agent hoped would resonate with a man who has long complained of witch hunts. By helping him, Scott argued, Trump would be showing he had the back of law enforcement. Chad Scott is a hero in this country's war on drugs, his attorney wrote in a clemency petition reviewed by The Associated Press, adding it would be a gross waste of taxpayer money to house and feed the former US Drug Enforcement Administration agent for six more years. Scott's application is hardly unique, according to prisoners, defense attorneys and .

Trump's proposed 50% tariff hike may hit $5 bn engineering exports: EEPC

US President Donald Trump's proposed 50 per cent tariff on steel and aluminium imports could severely impact India's engineering goods' shipments, an engineering exports promotion body has said. These metals and their derivatives constitute nearly a quarter of the country's total engineering shipments to the US, the Engineering Export Promotion Council of India said. Currently, India exports around USD 5 billion worth of steel, aluminium and related products to the US annually. The existing 25 per cent tariff on steel imports, imposed by the US on March 18, 2025, has already created a tough market for Indian exporters, it said. While India's direct steel exports to the US remain limited, the tariffs have intensified global competition and disrupted trade flows. If the US implements the 50 per cent tariff on steel, aluminium and their derivatives, exports of these critical items will become more expensive, likely leading to a decline in shipments," Chairman of EEPC India, Pankaj ..
