Tensions boiled over during Secretary of State Marco Rubio’s Senate hearing on the 2026 budget as multiple protesters disrupted the session, shouting “Stop the genocide!” just as Rubio began his opening statement.
Capitol police quickly removed the demonstrators, but not before the chants echoed through the chamber, forcing a pause in proceedings.
The outbursts come amid growing outrage over U.S. foreign policy and support for Israel’s actions in Gaza.
With international criticism mounting, today’s hearing became a flashpoint for public anger, turning a routine session into a dramatic confrontation.
Here's what happened inside the room — and what it says about the state of global outrage.

In a historic U.S.-brokered deal, D.R. Congo and Rwanda have signed a peace agreement in Washington, witnessed by U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio. Trump hailed it as a “glorious triumph,” though critics argue it may serve U.S. interests in Congo’s mineral-rich east. The deal includes a trade framework for critical minerals, but M23 rebels reject its legitimacy. With thousands killed and millions displaced, experts warn that without inclusive enforcement and reforms, peace may remain elusive in the volatile Great Lakes region.

In a landmark diplomatic moment, DR Congo and Rwanda signed a historic U.S.-brokered peace deal in Washington aimed at ending decades of deadly conflict. President Donald Trump called it a “glorious triumph” while hosting the signing ceremony in the Oval Office, flanked by VP JD Vance and Secretary of State Marco Rubio.
The agreement includes “disengagement, disarmament and conditional integration” of armed groups and signals potential U.S. access to DR Congo’s rare earth minerals. Yet deep questions remain—especially regarding the M23 rebels, Rwandan troop presence, and humanitarian access. With both countries denying support for rival militias, the full terms remain classified, fueling skepticism.
Trump, however, hailed it as a generational victory. Previous similar treaties have failed. But this deal, supported by earlier Qatari mediation, might offer a sliver of hope in a region long marred by instability and mineral-fueled warfare.

The world watches in alarm as Israel launches solo airstrikes on Iran — targeting nuclear and military facilities. While Washington claims it had no role in the attack, U.S. warships are on the move, and Secretary of State Marco Rubio has issued a chilling warning: “If Iran touches one American, it’s war.”

The U.S. Senate has erupted into a political firestorm as Donald Trump’s $3.3 trillion “One Big Beautiful Bill” sparks intense clashes between Republicans and Democrats. What was meant to be a victory lap for Trump ahead of July 4 has turned into a bitter war of words, with GOP lawmakers divided and Democrats pushing back fiercely. Senate Majority Leader John Thune admits there's no clear path forward, while House Speaker Mike Johnson pleads to keep the bill close to the original House version. With Elon Musk threatening to form a new “America Party” if the bill passes, the battle lines are drawn — and America is watching. Will Trump get his way? Or will the bill collapse under the weight of infighting and economic backlash?

The White House is doubling down on President Donald Trump’s controversial "$3.3 trillion Big Beautiful Bill,” calling it the largest tax cut in American history. At a press briefing, the Press Secretary emphasized the bill’s core goal: delivering relief to everyday, working-class Americans. Framing it as a win for the middle class, the administration claims the package not only reduces taxes but also rebalances the economic scales. Critics, however, warn of soaring deficits, potential slashes to Medicaid, and threats to renewable energy incentives. As GOP lawmakers remain divided on spending cuts and debt ceiling increases, this bold push represents Trump’s defining legislative gamble before July 4. With the Senate preparing for a vote-a-rama, the future of this bill could reshape America's fiscal trajectory — or spark fresh political chaos.

President Donald Trump’s $3.3 trillion tax and spending bill has hit turbulence in the U.S. Senate. Senate Majority Leader John Thune is racing to meet Trump’s July 4 deadline, but faces internal GOP divisions. At least eight Republican senators oppose key parts of the bill, ranging from Medicaid cuts to renewable energy credit phaseouts. Some GOP factions demand deeper spending cuts, while others seek to protect healthcare and green energy.
Meanwhile, markets are watching closely as the dollar dips and renewable energy stocks slide. Senators like Thom Tillis and Rand Paul have signaled likely opposition, placing final passage in jeopardy. Trump, watching closely, has lashed out at dissenters on social media. The bill, if passed, could reshape healthcare access for millions and eliminate major green energy incentives. Final voting may happen late Monday or early Tuesday, but only if Thune can negotiate a fragile consensus.

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.

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is scheduled to visit the White House on July 7 to meet U.S. President Donald Trump amid escalating efforts to end the 20-month-long Gaza war. The meeting will focus on securing a ceasefire, releasing hostages held for nearly two years, and addressing regional tensions with Iran following a recent U.S.-brokered halt to their 12-day air war. Israel is also pushing the U.S. to pressure Qatar to negotiate concessions from Hamas. This marks Netanyahu’s third meeting with Trump since January 2025. #Netanyahu #Trump #WhiteHouseMeeting #GazaWar #MiddleEastPeace #HostageCrisis #Israel #Hamas #IranTensions #Ceasefire #Qatar #USForeignPolicy #MideastConflict #Diplomacy #PeaceTalks #TrumpNetanyahuMeeting #GazaCeasefire #MideastDiplomacy #HostageNegotiations #USIsraelRelations #MiddleEastCrisis #IranIsraelConflict #QatarMediation #PeaceNegotiations #ConflictResolution #WarAndPeace

Israel has launched a wave of air strikes across Gaza, with northern Gaza City now a primary target following evacuation warnings from the Israeli military. At least 80 Palestinians have been killed since dawn, with dozens more wounded. Among the attacks was a strike on Al-Aqsa Martyrs Hospital in Deir el-Balah, raising fears of an impending and intensified ground offensive. The strikes come amid growing international concern over escalating civilian casualties and the targeting of critical infrastructure in one of the region’s most densely populated areas.
