Are phones and laptops exempted from tariffs? | NBC4 Washington
SUMMARY: Confusion continues over tariff exemptions, particularly regarding tech products like smartphones and laptops. On Friday, some electronics were initially exempted from reciprocal tariffs, but the president later stated there would be no exemptions. These products remain subject to a 20% fentanyl tariff, and eventually, they will be moved into new tariff categories for semiconductors and pharmaceuticals. The administration aims to ensure national security items like pharmaceuticals and semiconductors are produced in the U.S. However, no specific rates or timeframes have been set for these changes, with further decisions expected soon.
If you’re buying a phone or laptop, should you expect to pay more because of President Donald Trump’s tariffs? News4’s Susan Hogan explains.

Some employers take action against employees for social media comments on Charlie Kirk's death
SUMMARY: Following Charlie Kirk’s death, some Virginia employers have taken action against employees who made controversial social media comments.

Riverside Walter Reed Hospital fired an anesthesiologist, and Newport News and Accomack County schools disciplined staff members. Experts highlight the blurred line between personal expression and professional conduct due to social media’s reach. William and Mary law professor Margaret Hugh emphasized that employment laws and at-will policies allow employers broad authority to act. She urges unity and respect amid heightened tensions.
