Trump's First Cabinet Meeting: Discussions On Workforce Cuts, Gold Card Plan, Ukraine Deal & DOGE
President Donald Trump held his first Cabinet meeting of his second term, addressing major policies on government overhaul, Ukraine, immigration, and tariffs.
Elon Musk, leading the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), clarified his federal worker "pulse check" emails, while Trump hinted at mass layoffs and warned non-responders were “on the bubble.” Trump also unveiled his "gold card" visa plan, confirmed an upcoming Ukraine deal, and announced 25% tariffs on Mexican and Canadian imports.
He remained non-committal on Taiwan, saying he “never comments” on such matters.

A surprising twist is unfolding in U.S. politics — prominent MAGA figures are calling for Elon Musk’s return to their fold. Vice President JD Vance, strategist Roger Stone, and activists like Scott Presler are urging reconciliation despite Musk’s past feud with Donald Trump over the “Big Beautiful Bill” and his talk of forming a third party.
They say Musk’s vast resources were pivotal to Trump’s 2024 victory, and could be decisive for the 2026 midterms. MAGA Inc has already raised $177 million in 2025, but leaders see Musk as the ultimate game-changer — their “George Soros of the Right.” Musk hasn’t spoken about his “America Party” in weeks and even donated $15 million to the GOP in June. He has recently supported Trump’s calls to federalize D.C. policing. The push for a full political reunion is intensifying.

In a chilling development, former Russian President Dmitry Medvedev declared that Moscow is no longer bound by its self-imposed moratorium on deploying medium- and short-range missiles — a move that signals a sharp escalation in its confrontation with NATO. Citing “the result of NATO’s anti-Russian policy,” Medvedev warned the West to brace for “further steps,” calling this aggressive shift a “new reality” that Russia’s opponents must face. This policy shift paves the way for the Kremlin to deploy ground-based missile systems previously banned under the now-defunct INF Treaty. Moscow’s decision has sparked fears across Europe and the U.S. of a renewed arms race and heightened global instability. The announcement comes amid rising tensions over Ukraine, NATO expansion, and growing military drills along Russian borders. As Russia signals its readiness to respond forcefully, the geopolitical chessboard enters dangerous new territory.

Typhoon Podul slammed into Taiwan’s Taitung County on Wednesday, forcing school and government office closures across nine cities, including Kaohsiung and Tainan. Moving at 36 km/h toward the Taiwan Strait and China, the storm triggered over 380 flight cancellations and the evacuation of more than 5,500 residents from vulnerable areas. Authorities warned of up to 600 mm of rainfall in mountain regions, risking floods and landslides.

Tune in as Trump doubles down on his public spat with Elon Musk during a tense press gaggle. He outright threatens to “take a look” at deportation and unleash the “monster” Department of Government Efficiency—DOGE—on Musk, claiming the billionaire benefits from “more subsidies than any human being in history.” Trump warns that without subsidies “Elon might have to close up shop and head back to South Africa.” Will DOGE be turned loose?
