As Fox News continues to dominate American cable television viewership, a growing number of advertisers — including corporations, advocacy groups, and foreign governments — are using the network as a conduit to reach one highly influential viewer: President Donald Trump. According to Jeff Collins, president of ad sales at Fox Corporation, the network has experienced a sharp rise in advertising revenues, largely driven by demand from organizations seeking to influence the White House. “We’re seeing a lot of advertiser demand for that audience, whether it’s an audience of one or an audience of twelve,” Collins told the Financial Times. “There…

President Donald Trump’s recently signed economic package—dubbed the “Big, Beautiful Bill” (BBB)—has been hailed by some in business circles for its tax breaks, but experts argue it could be one of the most economically damaging policies in U.S. history. While short-term gains may please markets, the long-term consequences of this policy could reshape global capital flows, undermine U.S. competitiveness, and fuel inflation. The Logic Behind the Bill: Trickle-Down Revisited The BBB relies heavily on trickle-down economics, a strategy centered on the belief that tax breaks for the wealthy and corporations will spur job creation and economic growth. History, however, offers…

Former U.S. President Donald Trump has intensified his tariff campaign against key global partners, issuing new threats and policy demands that experts describe as politically unfeasible and strategically incoherent. The latest wave of tariff threats has raised alarm in both the European Union and Brazil, two regions now caught in the crosshairs of Trump’s unpredictable trade approach. An Escalating Campaign of Pressure Last week marked another turbulent period in U.S. trade diplomacy. Despite markets remaining relatively calm, trade experts warn that the situation could deteriorate rapidly by August 1, when Trump’s proposed 30% “reciprocal” tariffs are scheduled to take effect—unless…

Former U.S. President Donald Trump has announced plans to supply Ukraine with Patriot missile systems, citing an urgent need to bolster the country’s air defenses against a surge in Russian attacks. The move, he said, will be financially backed by European allies. In his most direct remarks yet on the delivery of advanced weaponry, Trump told reporters late Sunday: “We will send them Patriots, which they desperately need… I haven’t agreed on the number yet, but they are going to have some, because they do need protection.” Trump also criticized Russian President Vladimir Putin, saying: “Putin really surprised a lot…

Public opinion on immigration in the United States has shifted dramatically in a more positive direction, even as President Donald Trump intensifies his immigration crackdown, according to a new Gallup poll released July 11. The survey, conducted between June 2 and June 26 with a sample of 1,402 Americans, found that positive views of immigration have soared to a record 79%, while the share of Americans who believe immigration should be decreased has dropped to 30% — down from a five-year high of 55% in 2024. The shift comes in the midst of sweeping and controversial enforcement measures by the…

President Donald Trump has reignited his long-standing feud with comedian and former TV host Rosie O’Donnell, this time by threatening to revoke her U.S. citizenship in a post published on his Truth Social platform. “Because of the fact that Rosie O’Donnell is not in the best interests of our Great Country, I am giving serious consideration to taking away her Citizenship,” Trump wrote. “She is a Threat to Humanity, and should remain in the wonderful Country of Ireland, if they want her. GOD BLESS AMERICA!” O’Donnell’s representatives responded by pointing media outlets to a personal statement she shared on Instagram…

President Donald Trump’s once-warm relationship with Russian President Vladimir Putin appears to be fraying, as Russia intensifies its air campaign against Ukraine and rebuffs U.S.-led ceasefire efforts. Despite repeatedly claiming he could end the war in Ukraine within 24 hours of taking office, more than six months into his second term, Trump now finds himself frustrated with the Russian leader he once praised. “We get a lot of b**shit thrown at us by Putin, if you want to know the truth,” Trump told reporters on July 9. “He’s very nice to us all the time, but it turns out to…

NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang has expressed confidence that U.S. technology companies will weather President Donald Trump’s proposed tariffs on semiconductors, as the chipmaker became the world’s first publicly traded company to reach a $4 trillion market valuation. In an interview with USA TODAY, Huang emphasized that the tech industry has long endured disruptions, regulations, and geopolitical tensions — and would continue to adapt. “Nobody likes disruptions and no one likes abrupt changes,” he said. “But President Trump will settle these deals, countries will reorganize, and we’ll work through it.” Trump Celebrates NVIDIA’s Milestone Huang, whose net worth is estimated by…

In a sweeping move aligned with the Trump administration’s broader federal workforce overhaul, the U.S. State Department has begun the process of laying off more than 1,300 employees, including 246 members of the foreign service and 1,107 civil service staff. The initiative follows a recent U.S. Supreme Court decision that cleared the way for mass job cuts across federal agencies. The reductions mark one of the largest reorganization efforts in the department’s recent history, and are part of Secretary of State Marco Rubio’s plan, announced in April, to cut approximately 15% of the department’s total workforce. The stated aim of…

The United States is urging its key Indo-Pacific allies, Japan and Australia, to clarify their potential roles in the event of a military conflict with China over Taiwan. The push, led by U.S. Under-Secretary of Defense for Policy Elbridge Colby, has reportedly caused unease among Japanese and Australian officials, who were not expecting such direct requests. According to five sources familiar with the matter, Colby has raised the issue repeatedly in recent meetings with defense counterparts, part of a broader effort to bolster regional deterrence against China. While Washington has maintained a long-standing policy of “strategic ambiguity” regarding Taiwan—neither confirming…
