A shocking new report by CNN claims that US Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth ordered a pause on crucial weapons shipments to Ukraine without informing the White House. When questioned about the decision, President Donald Trump appeared to be unaware, denying responsibility by stating, “I don’t know, why don’t you tell me?” This unilateral action by the Pentagon chief has reportedly set off a major scramble within the administration, highlighting a severe breakdown in communication. The pause comes at a perilous moment for Kyiv, as Russia has intensified its missile attacks across Ukraine. Such a disruption in the supply of munitions could have devastating consequences on the battlefield. The lack of coordination was so profound that key figures like Secretary of State Marco Rubio and Special Envoy Keith Kellogg allegedly learned of the aid suspension from press reports, not from the Pentagon or Hegseth himself. Sources cited by CNN suggest that Hegseth's lack of a chief of staff or senior advisers has led to this poor interagency coordination.
In an attempt to control the narrative, the Pentagon stated the pause was for an assessment of US stockpiles, while the White House clarified that this review was never intended to halt the flow of aid. Following the backlash, President Trump reportedly ordered the resumption of some arms shipments, including Patriot missiles stationed in Poland. This entire incident raises serious questions about the chain of command, policy clarity, and the stability of US support for Ukraine.

Rubio’s Funny Banter About Jaishankar at QUAD Meet Goes Viral | Jaishankar Scolds US Over Terrorism
At the QUAD Foreign Ministers’ Meeting in Washington D.C., U.S. Secretary Marco Rubio jokingly called Indian External Affairs Minister S. Jaishankar a “very busy guy,” noting his constant travel. Jaishankar, alongside diplomats from Japan, Australia, and the U.S., took a firm stance on global terrorism—referencing the recent Pahalgam attack. He warned against equating victims and perpetrators, subtly addressing U.S. policy on Pakistan. The QUAD emphasized Indo-Pacific security, while Jaishankar also met with U.S. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth to deepen bilateral defense ties, calling the partnership one of the “most consequential” today.

President Trump has publicly rebuked Intelligence Chief Tulsi Gabbard’s claim that Iran is not currently building a nuclear weapon, declaring that Tehran could assemble a bomb within weeks. Trump, citing fresh intelligence, emphasized Iran’s advanced nuclear capability and warned that a final decision on bombing Iran’s Fordow site could come within two weeks. Gabbard later clarified her March testimony, admitting Iran now has the materials to quickly build a weapon. The White House says diplomacy is possible, but time is rapidly running out.

Israel has expanded its air campaign to southern Iran, striking the Arak reactor to clear a path toward the fortified Fordow nuclear site. The IDF claims half of Iran’s missile launchers have been destroyed, with UAVs and jets executing rapid “stand-on” strikes. With radars and defenses south of Tehran neutralized, Israel is intensifying operations for full air dominance. Meanwhile, 14 cargo planes—reportedly from the U.S. and Germany—have delivered undisclosed military aid as tensions escalate following a cluster missile strike in Tel Aviv.

A massive new tax and spending bill, championed by Donald Trump as his "big, beautiful bill," has cleared major congressional hurdles and is now facing a final, contentious vote. The legislation proposes a sweeping overhaul of the US economy, extending Trump's 2017 tax cuts while significantly boosting defense and energy spending and allocating new funds for border security. This move has ignited a political firestorm in Washington D.C., creating deep divisions not only between parties but within the Republican ranks and even straining Trump's relationship with high-profile supporters like Elon Musk.
The funding for this ambitious bill is at the heart of the controversy. The Republican proposal outlines deep cuts to essential social safety nets, including Medicaid, the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), and other low-income assistance programs. According to the Congressional Budget Office, these changes could result in nearly 12 million Americans losing their health coverage. The bill also introduces new work requirements for childless, able-bodied adults to receive Medicaid and SNAP benefits.
The financial implications are staggering. The bill is projected to add an estimated $3.3 trillion to the national debt over the next decade, a figure that has caused alarm and division among fiscal conservatives in the GOP. Social Democrats like Bernie Sanders have fiercely condemned the bill, labeling it a "handout to Trump’s rich allies." In a tense Senate session, Vice President JD Vance had to cast a tie-breaking vote to advance the legislation.
Despite the backlash, the bill contains provisions aimed at working-class voters, such as eliminating federal taxes on tips and overtime pay. However, House Democrats have blasted the legislation as a "reckless, regressive GOP tax scam" ahead of the crucial midterm elections. As the final vote looms, Trump has urged Republican lawmakers to "stay united" and pass the bill, which also includes a provision to raise the debt ceiling by $5 trillion.

Trump’s sweeping tax and spending bill has cleared a key Senate hurdle with a narrow 51–49 vote, advancing to final debate. The multi-trillion-dollar plan slashes taxes, boosts military and border spending, and cuts social programs like Medicaid. Trump praised the vote as a “great victory.” GOP leaders lobbied hard, with VP JD Vance and Trump personally courting key senators. Democrats vow delays with procedural tactics, as a final vote and a long “vote-a-rama” amendment marathon loom ahead.
