The Trump administration on Monday cracked down on companies in China and other countries that use subsidiaries or other foreign affiliates to get around curbs on chipmaking equipment and other goods and technology. The Commerce Department issued a new rule expanding its restricted export list, known as the Entity List, to automatically include subsidiaries owned 50 percent or more by a company on the list, according to a posting in the U.S. Federal Register. The action greatly increases the number of companies that require licenses to receive American goods and services. The rule is likely to disrupt supply chains. It will also make it more difficult for companies to determine whether exports to a customer or supplier are restricted. According to the rule, certain transactions may be allowed for 60 days. China’s Commerce Ministry strongly criticized the rule. “This move by the U.S. is extremely egregious in nature,” the ministry said in a statement. “It seriously infringes upon the legitimate rights and interests of the affected enterprises, severely disrupts international economic and trade order and gravely undermines the security and stability of global industrial and supply chains.” The timing of the rule’s release is somewhat surprising, given that the U.S. and China are in the midst of trade talks. The action strengthens export controls on China, a contrast to the U.S.’s recent loosening of controls on AI chips to China, like Nvidia’s H20. If a company is owned 50 percent or more by an entity on the list, licenses will be required for U.S. exporters to ship goods or technology to the subsidiary, just as they are for listed entities, with many licenses likely to be denied. The affiliates rule is similar to the “50 percent rule” for entities sanctioned by the Treasury Department’s Office of Foreign Assets Control. The Commerce Department did not respond to a request for comment. Though companies around the world are on the Entity List, the change will most significantly impact Chinese entities, experts said. Factories that produce legacy chips and are affiliated with listed companies may be captured, as well as other sectors, including aircraft, they said. Chinese tech giant Huawei, video surveillance company Hikvision, and drone manufacturer DJI are three examples of companies that may be impacted, one expert said. Many Huawei subsidiaries are already on the list, but not all. An analysis by Kharon, a Los Angeles-based data and analytics company, found the expected rule could pull thousands of hidden subsidiaries in nearly 100 destinations around the world into “export-control crosshairs.” “While Russia and China account for the majority of subsidiaries tied to already-listed entities, Kharon’s analysis uncovered that hundreds more are located in major trade and finance hubs – including the EU, the United States, the UK, Singapore, Switzerland, Japan, Canada, Australia and India,” the company said in a brief in June in anticipation of the rule.

President Donald Trump plans to attend Tuesday’s unprecedented meeting — which will see the top military brass from all around the world gathered together in Quantico, Virginia — and despite the swirling rumors, he says the meeting is supposed to be a positive one for all involved. Trump told NBC News of his plans over the weekend, saying that the meeting’s agenda would include discussions about the great things that have been happening within the military since War Secretary Pete Hegseth took over and how the department was being reshaped — and renamed — going forward. “It’s really just a very nice meeting talking about how well we’re doing militarily, talking about being in great shape, talking about a lot of good, positive things. It’s just a good message,” Trump told the outlet. “We have some great people coming in, and it’s just an ‘esprit de corps.’ You know the expression ‘esprit de corps’? That’s all it’s about. We’re talking about what we’re doing, what they’re doing, and how we’re doing.” Logistics for such a meeting — particularly security for so many within the military’s senior leadership structure — were already complex, but with the addition of President Trump, Secret Service must also be involved in pulling it off.

Many cited Hegseth’s own words, noting that he had long planned to review and reduce the number of generals serving on active duty, calling his plan a “Less Generals More GIs Policy.” GI, a slang term for an enlisted soldier, stands for “Government Issue.” Introducing the “Less Generals More GIs Policy.” pic.twitter.com/bQLRL2MqSC — Secretary of War Pete Hegseth (@SecWar) May 5, 2025 The plan, according to Hegseth, was to reduce the number of generals and admirals by 20% — and then implement a second phase of the plan that removed a further 10% of generals and flag officers, to include admirals and rear admirals as well.

The NFL is facing major criticism following its announcement that artist Bad Bunny will perform at the 2026 Super Bowl halftime show. Critics are pointing out that the decision appears political as Bad Bunny, who hails from Puerto Rico, has refused to perform in the United States due to his disagreement with immigration enforcement and has openly denigrated Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents, calling them “motherf***ers” and “sons of bitches” in a video he posted to Instagram in June. The three-time Grammy Award winner said during an interview earlier this month that he didn’t book any tour stops in the United States because he was worried ICE agents would target concert attendees. “…There was the issue of — like, f***ing ICE could be outside (my concert). And it’s something that we were talking about and very concerned about.” The singer, whose real name is Benito Ocasio, released a statement Sunday about performing at the Super Bowl. “What I’m feeling goes beyond myself. It’s for those who came before me and ran countless yards so I could come in and score a touchdown… this is for my people, my culture, and our history,” he said.  Roc Nation will produce the show in conjunction with Apple Music. Company chairman Jay-Z said in a statement, “What Benito has done and continues to do for Puerto Rico is truly inspiring. We are honored to have him on the world’s biggest stage.” The move is being interpreted as a political statement because Ocasio has been outspoken in his political beliefs. He endorsed Kamala Harris ahead of the 2024 election.  Bad Bunny also supports the blurring of gender roles. “What defines a man, what defines being masculine, what defines being feminine?” he said in a 2022 interview with GQ. “To me, a dress is a dress.” The Left celebrates the singer for wearing makeup and dresses as a way to protest against traditional masculinity. On July 4, the singer released a music video for his song, “NUEVAYoL,” which included a voice meant to sound like President Trump apologizing for his crackdown on illegal immigration.  “I want to apologize to the immigrants in America. I mean the United States. I know America is the whole continent,” the faux Trump voice says. “This country is nothing without the immigrants.” This, along with other factors, led to an avalanche of backlash on social media.  Conservative activist Robby Starbuck noted how most of Bad Bunny’s songs aren’t even in English. “This is not a pick designed to unite football fans or let people just enjoy the show. It was a pick designed to divide fans, and no doubt Bad Bunny will find some way to push a woke message,” he shared on X.  Bad Bunny was picked by @NFL @RocNation to play the Super Bowl this year. He made the following racist comment: “I highly doubt the type of gringos I don’t fuck with listen to me. Those were all the people at the Super Bown who were pissed odd about how Latino the halftime show… pic.twitter.com/UqU5Ksobkm — Robby Starbuck (@robbystarbuck) September 29, 2025 “Are NFL owners in on this idiocy or are they just culturally that disconnected from reality and how [NFL commissioner Roger Goodell] uses the NFL to push left wing social issues?” asked Starbuck. “Is it that hard to pick a unifying music act who doesn’t want to peddle woke propaganda?” “…This isn’t about music, it’s about putting a guy on stage who hates Trump and MAGA,” Starbuck concluded. “I’m thoroughly convinced the NFL has no idea who Bad Bunny actually is,” another person quipped. The Super Bowl is scheduled to take place at Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara, California, on Sunday, February 8, 2026.
