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~

Watch: Trump Reopens Alcatraz For U.S' Most Ruthless And Violent Offenders’ | All About Alcatraz

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?

Big Win for Trump: U.S Senate rejects bill to undo Trump’s Reciprocal Tariffs [Video]

Big Win for Trump: U.S Senate rejects bill to undo Trump’s Reciprocal Tariffs

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. #TrumpTariffs #SenateVote #USPolitics #BreakingNews #TradeWar #USEconomy #JDVance #RonWyden #Trump2025 #TariffDebate #Inflation #EconomicEmergency #CapitolHill #Republicans #Democrats #TariffWar #Trump #Vance ~ED.103~HT.336~GR.124~

Karoline Leavitt Fires Back at MSNBC Host Over ‘People of Color Are Next’ Deportation Comment

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.

U.S Army Commander Suspended Over 'Missing Trump Wall'| No Photos Of Trump, Vance, Hegseth Displayed

Colonel Sheyla Baez Ramirez has been suspended from command at Fort McCoy after the base failed to display official portraits of President Trump, Vice President JD Vance, and Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth. The glaring omission sparked backlash when empty frames were spotted on the command wall. Defense officials launched an immediate investigation, and the Department of Defense later updated the wall, saying “we fixed it.” Secretary Hegseth confirmed the suspension on X. The military called it an “unusual oversight,” but refused to share further details about the decision. #Trump #JDVance #PeteHegseth #FortMcCoy #MilitaryNews #Army #CommandWall #ColonelRamirez #TrumpAdministration #WhiteHouse #DefenseDept #USArmy #BreakingNews #PortraitFlap #LeadershipShakeup #DOD #TrumpPortrait #MilitaryCommand #USPolitics #ArmyInvestigation #MilitaryControversy #Pentagon #Vance #TrumpSupporters #ArmyBase #SheylaRamirez #NewsUpdate #XPost #GOP #MilitaryReform #CommandScandal Also Read Trump Considers Temporary Exemption from Auto Tariffs to Aid Car Manufacturers Amid Economic Challenges :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-considers-temporary-exemption-auto-tariffs-011-4124041.html?ref=DMDesc Trump Dismisses General Tim Haugh from National Security Agency Amidst Congressional Concerns :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-fires-general-tim-haugh-national-security-agency-011-4115013.html?ref=DMDesc Trump Warns Iran: Strike A Nuclear Deal In Two Months Or Face Unprecedented Bombing :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-warns-iran-strike-a-nuclear-deal-in-two-months-or-face-unprecedented-bombing-4109797.html?ref=DMDesc
