President Donald Trump’s approval rating has shown minimal movement in the wake of recent U.S. airstrikes on Iranian nuclear sites, according to multiple new polls released this week. While the military action has sparked renewed political debate and international concern, the data suggest that public opinion on the president’s overall job performance remains largely unchanged—albeit slightly lower than in early June. A Quinnipiac University poll conducted between June 22–24 shows that 41% of registered voters approve of the president’s performance, while 54% disapprove. This is only a modest increase from Quinnipiac’s earlier June 11 poll, which recorded 38% approval and…

President Donald Trump is intensifying efforts to push his sweeping tax legislation through the Senate before the July 4 deadline, as the bill encounters growing resistance and procedural obstacles. Returning to Washington from a NATO summit in Europe, Trump refocused his attention on domestic priorities, particularly the ambitious tax plan that the White House has dubbed the “Big Beautiful Bill.” The legislation includes a range of provisions: an expansion of the child tax credit, creation of children’s investment accounts, increased estate tax exemptions, expanded deductions for high-tax states, new limits on Medicaid and food stamps, and tax exemptions on tips…

Former President Donald Trump launched a fierce verbal attack on Zohran Mamdani, calling the progressive Democrat a “100% crazy communist” after Mamdani’s unexpected victory in the Democratic primary for New York City. Trump made the comments during a press briefing on June 25, in response to a question about rising left-wing voices within the Democratic Party. “You’ve got people like Mamdani winning elections now – he’s a 100% crazy communist. That’s who’s running the Democratic Party these days,” Trump said, accusing Democrats of drifting too far left. Mamdani, a member of the Democratic Socialists of America and a former state…

President Donald Trump is intensifying his focus on the Arctic region, revealing plans not only to acquire Greenland but also to bolster U.S. capabilities in the icy waters of the far north by purchasing a fleet of icebreaker vessels. During a press conference in the Netherlands on June 25, following the NATO summit, Trump confirmed that he is in talks with Finland to acquire 15 icebreakers—specialized ships designed to navigate and cut through frozen seas.

President Donald Trump has been nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize by Rep. Buddy Carter (R-Ga.) in recognition of his involvement in brokering a ceasefire between Israel and Iran following a brief but intense military conflict. The nomination was submitted to the Norwegian Nobel Committee on June 24. In his nomination letter, Rep. Carter credited Trump with “bold action” and “championing peace through strength,” which he says helped bring an end to the 12-day exchange of hostilities that began on June 13, when Israel launched attacks on Iranian nuclear sites. Iran responded with a series of counterstrikes, and on June…

Trump Mobile, the recently launched cellular service affiliated with President Donald Trump’s business empire, is standing by its claim that the new T1 smartphone is made in the United States—despite changes to its marketing language and mounting public skepticism. The T1 Phone, unveiled earlier this month alongside Trump Mobile’s new 5G cellular network, initially featured prominent “MADE IN AMERICA” branding on its website. However, by June 25, all such language had been removed, according to reporting by The Verge. The updated website now uses broader phrases like “brought to life right here in the USA” and “proudly American,” avoiding definitive…

President Donald Trump described Russian President Vladimir Putin as “misguided” and “difficult” while admitting that resolving the war in Ukraine has proven far more challenging than he initially believed. His remarks came during a press conference at the conclusion of the NATO summit in the Netherlands, where he also met with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy. Speaking to reporters, Trump said he expected the conflict between Russia and Ukraine would be “settled easy” within his first few months in office, but conceded that Putin has not been as cooperative as he had hoped. “Putin has been more difficult than I thought,”…

CNN has issued a strong defense of national security correspondent Natasha Bertrand after President Donald Trump launched a personal attack on her via Truth Social, accusing her of spreading “fake news” and calling for her to be fired and “thrown out like a dog.” The former president’s comments, posted on June 25, were in response to Bertrand’s reporting on the recent U.S. strikes against three of Iran’s nuclear sites. According to CNN’s coverage, the strikes—conducted over the weekend—did not completely eliminate Iran’s nuclear capabilities but rather set them back by several months. This assessment, based on early intelligence, has been…

President Donald Trump revealed on Wednesday that he is actively considering a shortlist of candidates to replace Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell, whose term is set to expire in May 2026. Speaking at the NATO summit in the Netherlands, Trump said he has already narrowed his choices to “three or four people,” adding that Powell would be leaving “pretty soon,” and described him as “terrible.” Although Trump did not disclose any specific names, reports from Bloomberg News indicate that Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, former Fed Governor Kevin Warsh, and current Fed Governors Michelle Bowman and Christopher Waller are among those…

In a provocative statement following U.S. airstrikes on Iranian nuclear facilities, President Donald Trump has suggested that the Department of Defense should be renamed the “War Department,” a nod to its original title prior to World War II. Speaking on June 25 at the conclusion of a NATO meeting in the Netherlands, Trump reflected on what he described as a “great victory” in the recent bombing campaign, carried out by B-2 stealth bombers targeting Iranian nuclear sites on June 21. The mission involved 36-hour roundtrip flights from Missouri, which Trump praised as “perfectly executed,” even without moonlight. “You know it…
