In a bombshell announcement, US President Donald Trump has revealed plans to host a full-fledged UFC championship fight at the White House as part of the America250 celebrations. Speaking at a rally in Iowa, Trump said the event will take place on the White House grounds and could draw 20,000 to 25,000 fans. UFC CEO Dana White is expected to coordinate the unprecedented event.
While some Americans are calling it a bold and patriotic move, critics have branded it bizarre, likening it to scenes from the film Idiocracy. The UFC match will be part of a wider series of festivities across the nation, including the “Patriot Games” and reenactments at historic sites. This unconventional announcement has further stirred the already polarizing public reaction to Trump's vision of America250.

US President Donald Trump denies reports that military aid to Ukraine has completely stopped but signals a major shift in US policy prioritizing America’s own defense stockpiles. As critical weapons deliveries face delays, Ukraine’s Zelensky struggles with escalating battlefield losses. This shift raises serious questions about the future of Western support in the ongoing conflict and what it means for Ukraine’s fight against Russian aggression.

In their first call since the Ukraine war began, Russian President Vladimir Putin confronted French President Emmanuel Macron over Western involvement in the conflict. Putin blamed NATO expansion and years of Western military support for turning Ukraine into an “anti-Russia bridgehead.” He warned Macron that any French troops in Ukraine would be seen as legitimate targets, risking escalation to World War III. Putin reaffirmed Russia’s terms for peace, insisting any resolution must reflect battlefield realities and end Western interference.

U.S President Donald Trump has made headlines once again, this time offering asylum to white South African refugees fleeing what he calls “genocide.” 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.

Russian President Vladimir Putin held a rare and “constructive” phone call with Pope Leo XIV, accusing Ukraine of deliberately escalating the conflict by sabotaging civilian infrastructure inside Russia. Putin referenced recent train bombings in Bryansk and Kursk as acts of terrorism. He also updated the Pontiff on resumed peace talks with Kiev, the exchange of prisoners, and efforts to reunite displaced children. Putin urged the Pope to support religious freedom in Ukraine and thanked the Holy See for its role in mediating humanitarian issues.

Pope Leo XIV, born Robert Prevost in Chicago, has become the first U.S.-born pontiff and now leads both the Holy See and Vatican City. His dual role as an American citizen and a foreign head of state raises legal and constitutional questions. While U.S. law allows for “active review” of such cases, experts say Leo’s citizenship is unlikely to be revoked unless he explicitly renounces it. The Vatican is a sovereign nation, and Leo holds dual citizenship with Peru as well. The U.S. State Department declined comment on his status.

Amid escalating global interest in resolving the Russia–Ukraine war, Pope Leo XIV offered the Vatican as a neutral ground for the next round of peace negotiations. Italian PM Giorgia Meloni confirmed the Pope’s willingness. However, Russia's Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov dismissed the offer, claiming the Vatican is unsuitable as a platform, citing religious concerns and Ukraine’s persecution of the Orthodox Church. Lavrov also mentioned that Moscow’s draft peace memorandum is nearly ready, but there is no clarity yet on when the next round of talks might occur.
