In a speech filled with patriotic fervor, Trump honored America’s founding ideals while outlining ambitious plans for the Semiquincentennial in 2026.
The president praised military veterans, first responders, and American workers, and touched on recent national victories in border security, energy independence, and economic growth.

His remarks blended national pride with political firepower, reigniting his re-election momentum and rallying his base.
The event featured fireworks, military flyovers, and a record crowd waving flags under the D.C.
Sky — a show of unity and spectacle only Trump could deliver.

Hamas has responded "in a positive spirit" to a U.S.-brokered ceasefire deal proposed by President Donald Trump, opening the door for negotiations to end the 21-month-long Gaza war. The proposal includes a 60-day ceasefire, return of hostages, and negotiations on long-term peace. Trump, optimistic about a breakthrough, warned Israeli PM Netanyahu to act swiftly. However, differences remain, including troop withdrawal timelines and humanitarian access. Overnight, Israeli strikes killed at least 138 Palestinians, including children in Khan Younis. Meanwhile, hostages’ families marked U.S. Independence Day in Tel Aviv by calling on Trump to “make the deal.” The situation remains fragile as both sides weigh the terms.

Ahead of the United States' Independence Day celebrations, federal agencies have issued a serious warning about potential terrorist attacks, specifically from lone wolf actors. This elevated threat level is a direct consequence of escalating tensions in the Middle East, where the U.S. has become more involved in the ongoing Israel-Iran conflict. The situation intensified after U.S. B-2 Spirit bombers conducted a major operation on June 22, dropping heavy bunker buster bombs on three of Iran's nuclear facilities in a strategic move to aid Israel.
In response to the potential for retaliatory attacks, security has been visibly bolstered across the country. New York Governor Kathy Hochul has identified lone wolves as the "greatest threat" to July 4th events, announcing an increased presence of State Police and the deployment of National Guard units at major transportation hubs, bridges, and tunnels throughout New York City. Authorities are also closely monitoring social media for any signs of cyber threats or domestic terror plots.
The threat is not limited to New York. An FBI bulletin has specifically warned that San Francisco's famous fireworks show could be a target for a mass casualty attack. The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has officially raised the national threat level to "Heightened" and stated it will remain in effect until September 22, citing the direct link to the escalating conflict between Iran and the U.S. While no specific or credible plots have been identified, federal and state agencies remain on high alert to counter any security situation that may arise during the holiday.

French President Emmanuel Macron has announced that France will officially recognize the State of Palestine in September, sparking fierce backlash from both Israel and the United States. U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio condemned the move as “reckless,” while Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu called it “shameful” and accused France of rewarding terrorism.
As Macron defends the decision as a step toward peace and an end to the Gaza war, critics argue it signals growing Western support for Palestine and Hamas. Is France challenging U.S.-Israeli dominance in Middle East policy? And will this shift trigger more European nations to follow?
The announcement comes amid international outrage over Israel's military campaign in Gaza and a growing death toll. With nearly three-quarters of UN members now backing Palestinian statehood, global pressure on Israel continues to mount.

Iran has reaffirmed its unwavering commitment to continuing uranium enrichment as talks with European powers loom in Istanbul on July 25. Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi declared that despite the recent US and Israeli strikes on Iran’s nuclear facilities, the nation’s atomic program remains a symbol of "national pride" and non‑negotiable sovereignty.
Simultaneously, Iran’s Deputy Foreign Minister Kazem Gharibabadi confirmed acceptance of a technical delegation from the IAEA in the coming weeks to discuss future cooperation modalities—but clarified they will not inspect nuclear sites or facilities.
European leaders from the UK, France, and Germany are set to press for an extension or activation of the JCPOA’s "snapback" sanctions mechanism unless Iran makes verifiable concessions, including limiting enriched uranium stockpiles and resuming full cooperation with inspectors. Tehran insists that any renewed US engagement must begin with rebuilding trust and rejecting military covert agendas

Hunter Biden unleashes a furious, profanity-laced tirade on immigration—defending undocumented workers and slamming critics with “F--- you.” The White House fires back, accusing him of ignoring Americans killed by illegal immigrants and calling his remarks “callous, self-interested maliciousness.” As debates erupt over Democratic immigration rhetoric, DHS defends crackdowns while critics point to the Biden family's mounting controversies. Is this damage control—or defiance?
