In a jaw-dropping moment inside the Oval Office, Apple CEO Tim Cook presented President Donald Trump with a one-of-a-kind memento — a stunning disc of iPhone glass mounted on a 24-karat gold base — as he announced Apple’s colossal $600 billion investment in US manufacturing. The handcrafted gift was designed by a former US Marine Corps corporal currently working at Apple and features Trump’s name, Cook’s signature, the Apple logo, and “Made in USA 2025” engraved onto the glass.
The base, made from Utah-sourced gold, symbolizes Apple’s deeper commitment to American soil. Standing beside Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick, Trump praised Apple’s investment surge and reiterated his push for iPhones to be made in the USA. The latest $100 billion pledge adds to Apple’s earlier announcements to create 20,000 jobs and build domestic infrastructure. This grand gesture — and golden gift — comes amid rising pressure on US companies to bring production home.

President Donald Trump has unveiled Apple’s staggering $100 billion expansion plan in the U.S., raising its total investment pledge to $600 billion over the next four years. The Oval Office announcement follows months of tariff threats from Trump, who recently floated a 25% tax on foreign-made Apple products. Apple CEO Tim Cook appeared alongside Trump and Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick and presented a symbolic gold-based souvenir to mark the occasion. While the investment will expand Apple’s U.S. supply chain, it still falls short of Trump’s demand to manufacture iPhones domestically.
Cook noted that several components — including glass and chips — are already U.S.-made, but final assembly will stay overseas “for a while.” Experts say the move is both a savvy PR maneuver and a strategic way to sidestep future tariff risks. Apple shares closed up 5%, with suppliers like Corning and Applied Materials also surging after the blockbuster announcement.

President Donald Trump has publicly backed Tulsi Gabbard after she declassified explosive findings that claim top Obama-era officials conspired to delegitimize Trump’s 2016 election victory. Gabbard, now serving as Director of National Intelligence, revealed “overwhelming evidence” that senior figures—including Obama, Brennan, and Clapper—used false intelligence to initiate the Trump–Russia collusion narrative.
She labeled the alleged actions as a "treasonous conspiracy" designed to subvert the will of American voters. Trump praised Fox News and Gabbard on Truth Social, calling the report a bombshell. Gabbard is submitting all materials to the DOJ for criminal investigation. The report also casts doubt on the Steele Dossier and claims internal memos disproved cyber tampering allegations before they were altered to implicate Russia. The revelations could reignite political tensions ahead of the 2024 elections as Republicans push for legal action.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s plan to seize Gaza City has sparked fierce internal opposition, with National Security Adviser Tzachi Hanegbi warning it would endanger ten hostages and fail to pressure Hamas. Top officials, including IDF Chief Eyal Zamir and Mossad head David Barnea, reportedly opposed the move, urging a ceasefire for negotiations. Despite warnings, the security cabinet approved the plan, backed by ministers Israel Katz, Ron Dermer, Bezalel Smotrich, and Itamar Ben Gvir, aiming to weaken Hamas but stopping short of a full Gaza occupation.
