A visible rift between the U.S. and Europe emerged as President Trump skipped the welcome for top EU leaders, leaving Ursula von der Leyen, Emmanuel Macron, Keir Starmer, and NATO’s Mark Rutte without a presidential greeting. Instead, Chief of Protocol Monica Crowley received them. The snub comes amid growing disagreements over Ukraine, as Trump pushes for a land swap deal while Europe remains firm against territorial concessions. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, wearing his trademark military jacket, was the focal point of the high-stakes White House meeting.

A rare earthquake struck the New York–New Jersey region late Saturday night, sparking online panic and raising fresh concerns over seismic preparedness in one of the most densely populated parts of the U.S. The 3.0 magnitude tremor hit six miles beneath Hasbrouck Heights, New Jersey, at 10:18 PM, according to the United States Geological Survey (USGS). Residents across Bergen, Morris, Essex Counties, and New York City felt the ground shake.
Social media exploded with reactions—some users shared personal experiences, while others posted shaky videos and memes comparing the quake to recent disasters like the tsunami-triggering quake in Russia. NYC Emergency Management confirmed the event and issued precautionary guidelines, warning citizens about possible aftershocks. No damages or casualties have been reported so far, but many are still rattled by the unusual seismic activity. Authorities continue to monitor the situation closely as updates roll in.
