The White House says it's considering suspending habeas corpus, a constitutional

provision that prevents people from being unlawfully detained or imprisoned by the government. The idea comes within the context of the administration's fight against illegal immigration. NPR's Danielle Kirtzleben reports. Danielle Kirtzleben, PPRS News Anchor, The New York Times, New York Times, News 8. A reporter asked White House aide Stephen Miller if President Trump is considering suspending habeas corpus. Miller said yes. Stephen Miller, White House Aide, Stephen Miller, The New York Times, New York Times, Well, the Constitution is clear, and that, of course, is the supreme law of the land,

that the privilege of the writ of habeas corpus can be suspended in a time of invasion. So, to say that's an option we're actively looking at. The Trump administration often characterizes the large number of people entering the U.S. illegally as an invasion. It's not clear how active the proposal is. This would be another extraordinary measure, joining the use of an 18th century law to deport alleged gang members to a prison in El Salvador and attempting to send others to Libya.

Pakistan and India have confirmed a ceasefire deal following talks mediated by the United States, and Secretary of State Marco Rubio says the two have agreed to start talks on what he said was a broad set of issues at a neutral site. The two have been trading cross-border fire after 26 civilians were killed and disputed Kashmir last month. The US and China meeting in Geneva for talks aimed at cooling the trade war between the two countries, the BBC's Jay Kwong reports. President Trump told reporters we have to make a great deal with China after saying

earlier 80% tariff on China seems right. It's the first time he has quoted a number on Chinese imports since he imposed a 145% tariff. For the past weeks, Mr. Trump has been bragging that China has been calling him for a deal. China claimed it was the opposite with the White House making contact. Though it is unclear who began the talks, both sides have clearly had enough. This is NPR News. European leaders are in Kiev today.
