Donald Trump has stunned America by ordering the reopening and expansion of the infamous Alcatraz prison. The former president says the facility will house the country’s most “vicious and violent” offenders. Once home to criminals like Al Capone, Alcatraz shut down in 1963 and is now a popular tourist attraction. Critics, including top Democrats, have slammed the move as theatrical and legally dubious. Trump insists it’s a powerful symbol of law and order. But is this about justice, or just politics? Here's what we know so far.

In a major political victory for Donald Trump, the U.S. Senate has rejected a resolution aimed at overturning his reciprocal tariffs, solidifying his economic stance even as the American economy shows signs of contraction. The resolution—introduced by Democrat Ron Wyden and backed by some Republicans-was narrowly defeated in a 49-49 vote. Vice President J.D. Vance broke the tie, blocking further Senate efforts to challenge Trump's use of emergency powers to impose tariffs.The vote came just hours after official data showed the U.S. economy shrinking for the first time in three years. Critics warn the tariffs could fuel inflation and worsen the economic outlook, but Trump maintains they are vital to counter global trade imbalances.

Karoline Leavitt, Press Secretary for President Trump, pushed back during a press briefing on claims made by MSNBC host Symone Sanders-Townsend. Sanders warned that “people of color” could be next following the deportation of Kilmar Abrego Garcia—a 29-year-old illegal immigrant sent to El Salvador’s megaprison, CECOT. While the administration first called it an error, officials now say Garcia may be tied to MS-13, a claim his lawyers deny. As Democrats and media voices raise alarm, the Trump team accuses them of spreading fear for political gain.

Ukraine is set to receive more U.S.-made Patriot air-defense systems as deadly Russian strikes intensify. A refurbished system from Israel is being rerouted, with Germany or Greece possibly sending another. While Trump pushes for peace, Zelensky’s plea for more weapons resurfaces after a missile strike killed 13 in Kyiv. With U.S. weapons deliveries from Biden’s era nearing exhaustion, the incoming Patriots are vital. The recent minerals deal between Ukraine and the U.S. could also open the door for further arms support as Kyiv braces for another wave of Russian aggression.

In a seismic political shift, Nigel Farage's Reform UK has upended Britain's political landscape by securing 677 council seats and gaining control of 10 councils in the 2025 local elections. This unprecedented victory saw Reform UK surpass both Labour and the Conservatives, signaling a potential end to traditional two-party dominance. Farage's party also clinched a narrow parliamentary by-election win in Runcorn and Helsby. Capitalizing on public dissatisfaction over immigration, economic policies, and governance, Reform UK's rise reflects a broader populist trend reshaping British politics.
