A brief history of US Presidents’ relationship with Ireland

US President Joe Biden arrives in Belfast on Tuesday evening for a tour of the island of Ireland.

President Biden’s visit marks the 25th anniversary of the Good Friday Agreement which largely brought an end to decades of violence in Northern Ireland known as The Troubles.

Mr Biden has Irish Catholic heritage, and he will visit his ancestral homes of counties Louth and Mayo during his four-day visit.

However, he is by no means the first US president to have connections with the Emerald Isle.

US Supreme Court Greenlights Trump’s Trans Military Ban, Allowing Discharges, Enlistment Block

In a 6–3 decision, the US Supreme Court has reinstated Donald Trump’s controversial ban on transgender individuals serving in the military. The ruling allows the Pentagon to discharge troops diagnosed with gender dysphoria and reject new enlistees unless they serve in their birth Sex and forego transitioning. This reversal follows Trump’s January executive order and strikes down protections restored during Biden's tenure. The policy has sparked outrage among LGBTQ+ advocates, reigniting debates on civil rights, military readiness, and the limits of executive power under the Constitution. #TrumpBan #TransMilitaryBan #SCOTUSRuling #LGBTQRights #GenderDysphoria #USMilitary #Trump2025 #CivilRights #TransRights #MilitaryPolicy #LGBTQBan #SupremeCourt #TrumpOrder #PentagonBan #GenderPolitics #DiscriminationAlert #ExecutiveOrder #TransSoldiers #BanBacklash #USNews Also Read Anaya Bangar Calls Out 'Toxic Masculinity' Of Cricketers: 'Sent Me Nudes After My Gender-Affirming Surgery' :: https://www.oneindia.com/sports/cricket/anaya-bangar-calls-out-toxic-masculinity-of-cricketers-sent-me-nudes-after-my-gender-affirming-s-4127391.html?ref=DMDesc Federal Judge Blocks Trump Administration From Banning Transgender People From Military Service :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/federal-judge-blocks-trump-administration-from-banning-transgender-people-from-military-service-4098779.html?ref=DMDesc US Army Bars Transgender People From Enlisting In Military With Immediate Effect :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/us-army-bars-transgender-people-from-enlisting-in-military-with-immediate-effect-4071757.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.318~ED.103~GR.122~

Russia-Ukraine War Breaking: Trump Moves U.S' Patriot Missile System From Israel to Ukraine

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. #UkraineWar #PatriotMissiles #AirDefense #TrumpUkraine #Zelensky #RussiaUkraine #MissileStrike #KyivAttack #USMilitaryAid #BidenPolicy #MineralsDeal #Greece #Germany #IsraelToUkraine #Putin #PatriotSystem #DefenseSupport #NATO #VaticanMeeting #UkraineWeapons ~HT.336~GR.125~ED.102~
