with the Administrationās previous
commitments to give at least
60 daysā notice prior to termination
of the (public health emergency), White House statement, via CNN.
The decision will also end enhanced
social safety net benefits put in place to help
minimize the impact of the pandemic on the nation.
People will have to start paying some
money for things they didnāt have to pay
for during the emergency.
Thatās the main
thing people will start to notice, Jen Kates, Senior vice president
at the Kaiser Family Foundation, via CNN.
CNN reports that the U.S. government has been looking to
shift COVID care to the commercial market since 2022,
partly due to Congress not authorizing additional funds.
Starting in March of 2020, states had been
barred from kicking people off Medicaid
amid the public health emergency.
.
According to an analysis by the Department of Health and
Human Services, an estimated 15 million people could lose
their Medicaid coverage when the emergency is ended.

US Vice President J.D. Vance has defended his fiery Oval Office clash with Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelensky, calling the February confrontation āusefulā for Americans to witness. The heated exchange erupted during Zelenskyās Washington visit to secure a deal over Ukraineās mineral resources. When Donald Trump explained his decision to stay neutral and pursue diplomacy with Moscow instead of ramping up military aid, Zelensky accused him of speaking from the safety of āa nice ocean.ā Vance shot back, calling the remark ādisrespectful,ā and Trump told Zelensky not to lecture Americans. Vance later argued that years of unchecked aid under Joe Biden lacked strategy and failed to advance peace. He said the episode exposed Washingtonās frustrations and underlined Trumpās push for a settlement with Moscow. The clash has become a flashpoint in US-Ukraine relations, showing cracks in support for Kyiv as Trump courts a diplomatic end to the war.

In a fiery White House exchange, South Korean President Lee Jae Myung sided with U.S. President Donald Trump as both leaders accused Joe Biden of enabling North Koreaās nuclear rise. President Lee told Trump the Korean peninsula was āstableā during Trumpās first term, but claimed North Korea advanced its weapons program significantly under Bidenās watch. Trump immediately seized the moment, declaring, āThey would not have done that if I were President,ā to which Lee replied, āI completely agree with you.ā The dramatic on-camera moment is fueling debate in Washington and Seoul, with critics warning that such public criticism of Biden could inflame U.S. domestic politics and reshape Korean diplomacy. Supporters of Trump, however, hailed the remarks as proof that his strongman approach had kept Pyongyang in check. The sharp rebuke leaves Biden facing fresh questions over his North Korea policy.

Russiaās missile strike on the U.S.-owned Flex factory in Ukraine was seen as a potential turning point in the war. But instead of lifting the ban on deep Ukrainian strikes inside Russia, President Trump responded with a tweet blaming Bidenāwithout directly condemning Putin. Even after Putin openly rejected Trumpās calls for talks, the U.S. president showed restraint, raising doubts about his approach to Moscow. With Ukraine seeking stronger support and Russia flexing military power, Trumpās silence underscores Putinās upper hand in diplomacy.

U.S. President Donald J. Trump reacted sharply after Russian missile strikes destroyed an American-owned factory in Ukraine, accusing Joe Biden of weakness and incompetence. Trump argued that Ukraine cannot win the war without striking inside Russia, blasting Biden for only allowing Kyiv to ādefendā instead of āfight back.ā He claimed the invasion would have āzero chanceā of happening if he were in office, declaring that Bidenās failed leadership emboldened Moscow. The attack, which hit a U.S. electronics plant in western Ukraine, has intensified tensions and raised fears that Russia is deliberately targeting American investments. Trumpās fiery comments come as Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky warns that Vladimir Putin does not want peace but seeks to install a Russian-controlled puppet regime. With Washington and Europe scrambling for security guarantees, Trumpās blunt remarks signal deep divisions in U.S. policy as the war enters a new, dangerous phase.

Donald Trump has introduced a new strategy to deter illegal immigration: painting the southern border wall black. Kristi Noem revealed the move, saying the black paint will absorb more heat, making the wall harder to climb while extending its durability. Border officials claim construction is advancing at half a mile per day, with added sensors and cameras. Interim El Paso Sector Chief Walter Slosar said migrant apprehensions have dropped dramatically, highlighting Trumpās tougher enforcement compared to Biden.

In a stunning political moment, Vice President JD Vance declared he is āready to become Presidentā if tragedy ever strikes Donald Trumpās presidency. His remarks come as speculation over Trumpās health intensifies, after viral images showed swelling in his legs and a deep bruise on his hand during a meeting with South Korean President Lee Jae Myung. The White House insisted the marks were caused by forceful handshakes, daily aspirin, and a benign condition ā chronic venous insufficiency ā common among men in their 70s. Still, the images fueled heated debate over Trumpās fitness. While stressing confidence that Trump will finish his term, Vance said his 200 days as Vice President have been āthe best training possibleā for the highest office. His dramatic statement has added fuel to Washingtonās anxieties as questions swirl about succession, leadership, and Americaās political future.

The proposal raises questions about the future of US-South Korea relations and strategic military deployments in the region.

Texas Republicans have redrawn congressional maps, aiming to add up to five new GOP seats and strengthen Trumpās slim House majority ahead of the 2026 midterms. This mid-decade redistrictingāhighly unusual outside the census cycleāturns Texasā 38 seats into a national battleground. Democrats in California and other states are proposing counter maps, sparking lawsuits over racial gerrymandering. With a federal hearing set for August 2025, critics warn the move erodes trust in democracy, giving Trump a stronger legislative shield but no guarantee of long-term dominance.

Elon Muskās much-hyped new political party has reportedly stalled just two months after its launch. Sources say Musk is retreating amid GOP pushback, fearing damage to ties with Republican leadership, especially VP JD Vance. The Tesla billionaire has suspended meetings, distanced himself from allies like Andrew Yang, and shifted focus back to Republican politics. Despite once pledging millions for his own party, Musk may now redirect support toward Vanceās 2028 White House run. Critics argue Musk lacks the credibility and infrastructure to build a lasting third-party force.

A surprising twist is unfolding in U.S. politics ā prominent MAGA figures are calling for Elon Muskās return to their fold. Vice President JD Vance, strategist Roger Stone, and activists like Scott Presler are urging reconciliation despite Muskās past feud with Donald Trump over the āBig Beautiful Billā and his talk of forming a third party.
They say Muskās vast resources were pivotal to Trumpās 2024 victory, and could be decisive for the 2026 midterms. MAGA Inc has already raised $177 million in 2025, but leaders see Musk as the ultimate game-changer ā their āGeorge Soros of the Right.ā Musk hasnāt spoken about his āAmerica Partyā in weeks and even donated $15 million to the GOP in June. He has recently supported Trumpās calls to federalize D.C. policing. The push for a full political reunion is intensifying.

A massive new tax and spending bill, championed by Donald Trump as his "big, beautiful bill," has cleared major congressional hurdles and is now facing a final, contentious vote. The legislation proposes a sweeping overhaul of the US economy, extending Trump's 2017 tax cuts while significantly boosting defense and energy spending and allocating new funds for border security. This move has ignited a political firestorm in Washington D.C., creating deep divisions not only between parties but within the Republican ranks and even straining Trump's relationship with high-profile supporters like Elon Musk.
The funding for this ambitious bill is at the heart of the controversy. The Republican proposal outlines deep cuts to essential social safety nets, including Medicaid, the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), and other low-income assistance programs. According to the Congressional Budget Office, these changes could result in nearly 12 million Americans losing their health coverage. The bill also introduces new work requirements for childless, able-bodied adults to receive Medicaid and SNAP benefits.
The financial implications are staggering. The bill is projected to add an estimated $3.3 trillion to the national debt over the next decade, a figure that has caused alarm and division among fiscal conservatives in the GOP. Social Democrats like Bernie Sanders have fiercely condemned the bill, labeling it a "handout to Trumpās rich allies." In a tense Senate session, Vice President JD Vance had to cast a tie-breaking vote to advance the legislation.
Despite the backlash, the bill contains provisions aimed at working-class voters, such as eliminating federal taxes on tips and overtime pay. However, House Democrats have blasted the legislation as a "reckless, regressive GOP tax scam" ahead of the crucial midterm elections. As the final vote looms, Trump has urged Republican lawmakers to "stay united" and pass the bill, which also includes a provision to raise the debt ceiling by $5 trillion.
