Critics have also pointed to Biden's about-face on the topic since he ran for president under the platform of ending oil and gas drilling and moving toward renewable energy.

It’s outrageous that Biden seems ready to greenlight the massively destructive Willow project, prioritizing oil industry profits over the future of polar bears and other Arctic wildlife, Kristen Monsell, senior attorney at the Center
for Biological Diversity, via 'The Guardian'.

In a stunning admission, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu confirms that the U.S. airstrikes on Iran’s nuclear facilities — including Natanz, Fordow, and Arak — were fully coordinated with Israel and rehearsed during the Biden administration. As Israel closes its airspace amid fears of Iranian retaliation, the region braces for what could be the next major flashpoint in the Middle East.

In a landmark ruling, the Ninth Circuit Court upheld Donald Trump's decision to federalize 4,000 National Guard troops to quell immigration-related unrest in Los Angeles—rejecting California Governor Gavin Newsom’s challenge. The court ruled federal intervention was lawful due to obstruction of federal agents. With two Trump appointees and one Biden judge siding unanimously, the decision marks the first such presidential move since 1965. Trump hailed the verdict as a “big win,” blasting Newsom’s leadership and vowing to protect American cities.

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is scheduled to visit the White House on July 7 to meet U.S. President Donald Trump amid escalating efforts to end the 20-month-long Gaza war. The meeting will focus on securing a ceasefire, releasing hostages held for nearly two years, and addressing regional tensions with Iran following a recent U.S.-brokered halt to their 12-day air war. Israel is also pushing the U.S. to pressure Qatar to negotiate concessions from Hamas. This marks Netanyahu’s third meeting with Trump since January 2025. #Netanyahu #Trump #WhiteHouseMeeting #GazaWar #MiddleEastPeace #HostageCrisis #Israel #Hamas #IranTensions #Ceasefire #Qatar #USForeignPolicy #MideastConflict #Diplomacy #PeaceTalks #TrumpNetanyahuMeeting #GazaCeasefire #MideastDiplomacy #HostageNegotiations #USIsraelRelations #MiddleEastCrisis #IranIsraelConflict #QatarMediation #PeaceNegotiations #ConflictResolution #WarAndPeace

In a fiery political escalation, White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt took direct aim at Zohran Mamdani — the presumptive Democratic frontrunner in the New York City mayoral race — accusing him of embodying “radical” left-wing ideals. Labeling Democrats as “doubling down on craziness,” Leavitt claimed Mamdani's policies threaten the “very fabric of the country.”
The attack reflects growing Republican unease with Mamdani’s rising influence, particularly after his viral interview clip showed him eating biryani with his hands while championing Third World-inspired politics. With his open support for Palestine, socialism, and progressive reform, Mamdani has drawn praise and vitriol in equal measure. As Trump’s White House attempts to frame the 2025 elections as a choice between order and chaos, Mamdani is emerging as a lightning rod in the cultural and political battlefield. The clash signals a deeper national confrontation brewing around race, identity, and radicalism.

The White House is doubling down on President Donald Trump’s controversial "$3.3 trillion Big Beautiful Bill,” calling it the largest tax cut in American history. At a press briefing, the Press Secretary emphasized the bill’s core goal: delivering relief to everyday, working-class Americans. Framing it as a win for the middle class, the administration claims the package not only reduces taxes but also rebalances the economic scales. Critics, however, warn of soaring deficits, potential slashes to Medicaid, and threats to renewable energy incentives. As GOP lawmakers remain divided on spending cuts and debt ceiling increases, this bold push represents Trump’s defining legislative gamble before July 4. With the Senate preparing for a vote-a-rama, the future of this bill could reshape America's fiscal trajectory — or spark fresh political chaos.

Canada is weighing joining the US in President Donald Trump’s ambitious “Golden Dome” missile defense initiative, aimed at shielding against threats like ballistic and hypersonic missiles. Chief of Defence Staff Jennie Carignan affirmed strong US-Canada military ties amid rising geopolitical tensions. While China and Russia warn against space militarization, Ottawa stresses defense, not provocation. Trump promises operational status by term-end, while Canada increases Arctic vigilance. With regional dynamics shifting toward the Indo-Pacific, North America’s security strategy could be on the brink of dramatic transformation.
