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. He made the announcement in response to a question from a Finnish journalist, praising Finland’s expertise in constructing such vessels. “I want to buy icebreakers.…

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…

President Donald Trump delivered unusually blunt remarks on June 24 regarding the ongoing conflict between Israel and Iran, expressing frustration with both nations following the collapse of a short-lived ceasefire agreement. Speaking from the South Lawn of the White House before departing for a NATO summit in the Netherlands, Trump said, “We basically have two countries that have been fighting so long and so hard that they don’t know what the f— they’re doing.” He followed the statement by urging Israel to “calm down,” suggesting that continued aggression could jeopardize regional stability. Ceasefire Breakdown The remarks came amid escalating tensions…

A preliminary intelligence assessment by the U.S. Department of Defense suggests that the recent airstrikes on Iranian nuclear facilities by U.S. forces have only delayed, rather than destroyed, Iran’s nuclear weapons development capabilities, according to multiple U.S. officials familiar with the findings. The June 21 operation, led by B-2 stealth bombers, targeted three key nuclear sites in Fordow, Natanz, and Isfahan using GBU-57 “bunker buster” bombs – the most powerful conventional weapons in the U.S. arsenal. These 30,000-pound bombs are designed to penetrate deeply buried targets. However, the initial assessment indicates they failed to reach the depths required to completely…

The Senate is preparing for a high-stakes vote as early as June 26 to determine whether President Donald Trump must obtain congressional approval before further military action against Iran, amid growing bipartisan debate over the balance of war powers between Congress and the presidency. The move comes in the wake of Trump’s June 21 airstrikes on Iranian nuclear facilities — a decision that has drawn both praise and criticism from lawmakers, and raised renewed questions about executive authority in matters of war. While a fragile cease-fire is in place between Israel and Iran, its future remains uncertain. The Resolution: Limiting…
