Pope Francis Death: Trump Declares National Mourning for Pope Francis; Flags Lowered to Half-Staff
Trump has declared a national period of mourning following the death of Pope Francis at the age of 88.
In a gesture of respect and solidarity, Trump ordered flags across the United States to be lowered to half-staff in honor of the beloved Pontiff.
This move comes as the world grapples with the loss of a leader who redefined the papacy through his compassion, humility, and dedication to global peace and social justice.
Trumpâs declaration marks a moment of reflection for both Catholics and non-Catholics alike, as they pay tribute to Pope Francis' legacy.
U.S President Trump is claiming total victory after Congress narrowly passed his massive $4.5 trillion âBig Beautiful Bill.â Calling it the âbiggest bill of its kind ever signedâ, Trump says the legislation will blow away his first-term achievements and launch the U.S. into a new era of economic dominance. The bill includes historic tax cuts, major funding for border security, and delivers on nearly every major second-term promise â all while Trump calls out past administrations for âweak, failed leadership.â This July 4th, Trump isnât just celebrating â heâs redefining American power.

House Democratic Leader Hakeem Jeffries took to the floor for hours, delivering a marathon speech aimed at derailing former President Trumpâs controversial âBig Beautiful Bill.â Branding it âone big, Ugly bill,â Jeffries slammed the legislation as a reckless handout to corporations and a threat to working families. Republicans accused Democrats of political grandstanding, while Trump allies vowed to push the bill through regardless.

Despite deep Republican divisions and united Democratic opposition, Trump is set to sign the bill into law at a high-profile July 4th ceremony.

U.S President Donald Trump has made headlines once again, this time offering asylum to white South African refugees fleeing what he calls âgenocide.â But the move has sparked outrage and raised questions about hypocrisy as Trump continues his tough stance on immigration, particularly toward Black and Hispanic migrants. As the media focuses on the controversial land expropriation in South Africa, many are now calling out the double standard in U.S. immigration policy.
