China’s President Xi Jinping has approved new Communist Party rules that could signal a shift in leadership dynamics. The Politburo’s move to standardize policymaking and delegate daily responsibilities has sparked speculation about a potential post-Xi transition. While experts caution that this isn’t a power handover, the increasing roles of senior leaders like Li Qiang, Ding Xuexiang, and Cai Qi suggest Xi may be stepping back from micromanagement. Analysts view this as an effort to institutionalize governance amid growing national and global challenges.

A bombshell revelation has rocked the White House, with an anonymous insider claiming that U.S. President Donald Trump's dramatic tariff threats are nothing but a "theatrical show." As Trump pushes for "reciprocal" tariffs up to 70% on 12 unnamed countries, a White House source told Politico the entire process lacks a real deadline and is staged for maximum impact. Letters signed by Trump are set to go out Monday, with offers labeled “take it or leave it.” India is likely among the targets, amid stalled trade negotiations. The move comes even as Trump claims to intensify his trade war rhetoric heading into August 1. With critics questioning the credibility of this “showmanship,” the future of global trade talks just became murkier.

In a fiery declaration, U.S. Congresswoman Anna Paulina Luna has vowed to block all future weapons funding for Ukraine over what she calls the persecution of the Ukrainian Orthodox Church. Citing President Zelensky’s crackdown on the nation’s largest Christian denomination, Luna, a member of the House Foreign Affairs Committee, accused Ukraine of violating religious freedoms and warned that the U.S. is "not your piggy bank." Her post comes amid growing criticism in the U.S. of how billions in aid to Ukraine are being used, especially under Trump’s renewed “America First” policy. The issue has gained little attention in U.S. politics, but high-profile voices like Tucker Carlson have echoed similar concerns. The controversy deepens as Zelensky strips top clergy of citizenship and pushes legislation targeting churches with links to Russia. Is Washington finally rethinking its blind support for Kiev?

Israel has firmly rejected Hamas' proposed changes to the Qatari-mediated ceasefire deal, calling them "unacceptable." Despite this, Prime Minister Netanyahu has directed Israel’s negotiating team to proceed to Qatar on Sunday for proximity talks, as part of the ongoing U.S.-brokered effort led by President Donald Trump. The original deal envisions a 60-day ceasefire, release of hostages, and negotiations to end the 21-month-long war. Hamas had earlier described its response as “positive,” signaling openness to immediate talks. However, Israel’s statement indicates a stark gap between the two sides. Trump, who termed the ceasefire proposal as his “final offer,” remains optimistic, though tensions around the edits by Hamas raise serious doubts. The move comes amid intensifying international pressure and rising death tolls in Gaza. The talks in Qatar may be the last viable opportunity to reach a breakthrough—or confirm the collapse of yet another peace effort.TAGS
