Some GOP walk the line on Trump’s tariffs and a look at Apple HomeView: Morning Rundown

Key Points:

• Some Republican candidates in key battleground races are distancing themselves from Trump’s tariff policies, seeking a middle ground due to voter concerns over the cost of living, with figures like Sen. Susan Collins and former Rep. Mike Rogers voicing opposition.
• Ukraine has resumed strikes on Russian oil refineries after a temporary pause, with President Zelenskyy criticizing the U.S. for restricting intelligence sharing and Starlink services, and accusing SpaceX of throttling critical battlefield communications.
• Apple introduced HomeView, a $299 smart home hub combining features of the iPad, Apple Watch, and CarPlay, designed to work with Apple HomeKit devices and requiring an iPhone or iPad for use.
• A recent roller-coaster death at Six Flags Over Georgia has highlighted the lack of federal oversight on amusement park rides, as safety regulation is currently managed by a patchwork of state laws and voluntary industry standards.
• Chick-fil-A is experiencing increased foot traffic despite overall declines in fast-food visits, attributed to its ability to adapt to changing consumer habits amid economic pressures and shifts in appetite trends.
