The awkward exchange is now circulating on social media, sparking intense debate.
While some found Bidenâs response humorous, others are criticizing the president for making light of a serious issue, especially when discussing hostages in Gaza.
What does this say about his leadership and handling of sensitive matters?

President Donald Trump has issued a stark warning that the Ukraine-Russia war could spiral into World War III if not resolved soon. Ahead of his expected meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin, Trump claimed his early diplomatic efforts prevented global escalation and criticized President Bidenâs costly military aid to Kyiv. Promising a shift in U.S. policy, Trump has reduced arms shipments, floated a minerals deal to recoup war costs, and hinted at territorial swaps as part of a potential peace settlement.

At a press conference, Donald Trump fiercely distanced himself from the Ukraine war, calling it âBidenâs warâ and vowing to end it. Responding to a shocking question about Ukraine conscripting elderly men and individuals with Down Syndrome to fight on the front lines, Trump said, âI havenât heard that... but Iâm here to get us out.â He claimed the war wouldâve never happened under his leadership and criticized the Biden administrationâs continued funding of Ukraineâs military, which he described as âscraping the bottom of the barrel.â
Trump touted his record of stopping five wars and promised Ukraine would be the sixth. He also referenced diffusing tensions between India and Pakistan âwithin days.â The remarks have reignited debates over American military aid and raised concerns about ethical limits in wartime conscription. Trumpâs statement drew applause from some, shock from others, and further polarized an already divisive foreign policy debate.

As MAGA infighting deepens, Donald Trump has publicly praised far-right activist Laura Loomer, calling her a âvery nice personâ and a âpatriotâ in response to a reporter's pointed question about her influence in his circle. The endorsement comes amid Loomer's own controversy â she recently unveiled a âtip lineâ aimed at helping Trump allies report and remove âdisloyalâ government staffers. Loomer claims Biden holdovers and anti-Trump insiders are sabotaging the movement from within and insists âhundredsâ need to be purged.
The president's warm words about her raise eyebrows, especially as he attempts to consolidate power ahead of the upcoming election. Loomerâs call for a MAGA-only government has sparked concern across Washington, while Trump appears to embrace her ideology. Critics see the move as a dangerous precedent, while supporters argue it's a long-overdue loyalty check. The line between activism and influence seems blurrier than ever inside Trumpâs inner circle.

The spectacle of Israel's Itamar Ben-Gvir humiliating perhaps the most popular of all Palestinians in his prison cell was as unedifying as the national security.. Sky News
Hamas has condemned Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahuâs âGreater Israelâ remarks as âmadnessâ and a threat to regional stability, urging Arab states to cut ties with Israel and back Palestinian resistance. Hamas accused Israel of using settler violence as part of an annexation strategy in the West Bank, vowing continued defiance against occupation. Iranâs Foreign Ministry also slammed the plan, warning it targets territories in Egypt, Jordan, Lebanon, and Syria. Netanyahu called the vision a historical and spiritual mission for Israel.

Israeli media report plans to call up 80,000â100,000 IDF reserve troops for a potential occupation of Gaza City under PM Netanyahuâs strategy to dismantle Hamas. The operation, approved in principle by IDF Chief of Staff Herzi Halevi, could last until late 2026. Hamas vows fierce resistance, condemning Netanyahuâs âGreater Israelâ remarks as dangerous delusion. With Israel already engaged on multiple fronts, including Lebanon and Yemen, tensions are soaring. Hamas claims recent strikes on an Israeli Merkava 4 tank and D9 bulldozer.
