Trump Fails Ukraine War? 'Fake' Relationship with Putin — No Action Taken by U.S Despite Bold Claims

Despite repeatedly touting his "very good" relationship with Russian President Vladimir Putin, President Trump has failed to bring about any substantial change in the Kremlin’s stance on the Russia-Ukraine war. While claiming he could end the conflict in 24 hours, Trump has taken no concrete action to halt the fighting. Putin's praise for Trump as "clever" and "pragmatic" hasn’t translated into any shift in Russia's approach. As the war continues, Trump's inaction raises questions about the effectiveness of his diplomatic efforts.

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~

Trump’s Tax Cuts Roar Back: Senate GOP Smashes Through Filibuster | Budget Showdown on Capitol Hill

In a dramatic late-night session, Senate Republicans passed a budget blueprint that sets the stage for extending Donald Trump’s tax cuts — and they did it without a single Democratic vote. By bypassing the filibuster through budget reconciliation, the GOP now has a clear path to push through Trump’s economic, military, and border priorities. With $5 trillion in potential spending cuts and a looming debt ceiling crisis, this vote marks the beginning of a high-stakes budget war on Capitol Hill.

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?

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.
