Critics warn this could be a dangerous politicization of U.S. economic reporting, while supporters claim Trump is “exposing the truth” about government numbers.
The move comes just days before key jobs data is due, raising fears over market manipulation and public trust in official statistics.
President Trump has fired Bureau of Labor Statistics Director Erika McEntarfer following a disappointing July jobs report that added only 73,000 jobs and included major downward revisions to May and June. Trump accused the agency of political manipulation, claiming the numbers were “rigged” and damaging to the economy. Unemployment ticked up to 4.2%, sparking a 1.5% market drop. McEntarfer, a Biden appointee, became a target of Trump’s fury as economists warn that politicizing labor data could erode trust in a cornerstone of economic governance.

US Vice President J.D. Vance has defended his fiery Oval Office clash with Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelensky, calling the February confrontation “useful” for Americans to witness. The heated exchange erupted during Zelensky’s Washington visit to secure a deal over Ukraine’s mineral resources. When Donald Trump explained his decision to stay neutral and pursue diplomacy with Moscow instead of ramping up military aid, Zelensky accused him of speaking from the safety of “a nice ocean.” Vance shot back, calling the remark “disrespectful,” and Trump told Zelensky not to lecture Americans. Vance later argued that years of unchecked aid under Joe Biden lacked strategy and failed to advance peace. He said the episode exposed Washington’s frustrations and underlined Trump’s push for a settlement with Moscow. The clash has become a flashpoint in US-Ukraine relations, showing cracks in support for Kyiv as Trump courts a diplomatic end to the war.

In a stunning Oval Office press conference, U.S. President Donald Trump suggested that fewer than 20 of the remaining hostages in Gaza are still alive — sparking outrage and despair from families demanding answers. Trump credited himself with previous hostage releases but warned that “a couple of them are not around any longer,” contradicting Israel’s official figures. Israel insists that 50 hostages remain in Gaza, with 20 alive, 2 in grave danger, and 28 confirmed dead. Families accused the government of keeping them in the dark while Trump’s comments intensified pressure on Prime Minister Netanyahu, who is preparing to launch a massive Gaza City offensive under the name “Operation Iron Fist.” With one million Palestinians ordered to evacuate, negotiators scramble to reach a ceasefire-hostage deal before the invasion begins. The question now: how many hostages remain alive — and can they be saved in time?

During an Oval Office meeting on August 18, 2025, Donald Trump displayed a Ukraine war map highlighting territories under Russian control — a move Russia’s Foreign Ministry called a “strong slap” for President Zelensky. The map served as a public reminder of Ukraine’s battlefield losses, undermining Zelensky’s narrative of strength before European allies. For Russia, the display was hailed as a diplomatic win, reinforcing Putin’s territorial claims. For Europe, it raised fears that U.S. priorities are shifting toward Moscow, pressuring Kyiv toward concessions.

Just months after a tense Oval Office clash that ended in a shouting match, President Trump and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky struck a surprisingly cooperative tone in their latest White House meeting. Zelensky, criticized earlier for his military-style attire, appeared in a suit jacket, signaling a diplomatic gesture while keeping his wartime identity. This softer approach set the stage for lighthearted exchanges with Trump and multilateral talks joined by European leaders. Discussions centered on a potential peace deal with Russia, with Trump pushing for trilateral negotiations.

Rumors of U.S. President Donald Trump’s death flooded social media after his sudden absence from public view, sending “Trump dead” and “Is Trump dead?” to the top of Google’s search trends. The president was last seen on August 24 at his Virginia golf club with former MLB pitcher Roger Clemens and later chaired a televised cabinet meeting on August 26. Since then, he has skipped all public appearances, sparking speculation about his health. Concern deepened after photos of Trump’s bruised hand and swollen ankles circulated online, fueling questions about his fitness. The White House previously disclosed he suffers from chronic venous insufficiency, a condition tied to age and circulation. Meanwhile, Vice President JD Vance intensified chatter by stating he is “ready to take over” if tragedy strikes. While Trump remains active on Truth Social, his absence from events keeps conspiracy theories alive.
