Trump Accuses China of Breaking Deal That Saved Them From Economic Collapse

President Donald Trump has accused China of violating an agreement to reduce tariffs and trade restrictions on critical minerals, claiming Beijing was in "grave economic danger" before he negotiated a deal earlier this month. Writing on Truth Social Friday evening, Trump stated he made a "fast deal" with China for both nations to suspend triple-digit tariffs for 90 days to "save" Beijing from a "very bad situation." Trump claimed his tariffs of up to 145 percent on Chinese imports had made it "virtually impossible" for China to trade with the US, leading to factory closures and "civil unrest" in the country. "China, perhaps not surprisingly to some, HAS TOTALLY VIOLATED ITS AGREEMENT WITH the US. So much for being Mr. NICE GUY!" Trump wrote. The president did not specify how China violated the agreement made following Geneva trade talks in […]

Trump Demands Canada Pay $61 Billion Or Become 51st State For Missile Defense

President Donald Trump has announced that Canada would need to pay $61 billion to participate in his proposed Golden Dome missile defense system "if they remain a separate, but unequal, Nation." In a TruthSocial post, Trump stated that Canada "very much wants to be part of our fabulous Golden Dome System" and would receive free access by joining the United States. According to Trump, participation would cost Canada "ZERO DOLLARS if they become our cherished 51st State," adding "They are considering the offer!" Trump's comments followed Canada's parliament hosting King Charles III for a rare royal address emphasizing Canadian sovereignty during "dangerous and uncertain" times, amid ongoing pressure from the US president for Canada to join America. After the royal speech, Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney indicated to CBC that Canada hopes to join ReArm Europe by July 1 to […]

Elon Musk Publicly Slams Trump’s Massive Spending Bill After Backing His Election

Elon Musk has publicly criticized a key policy initiative from Donald Trump, creating a notable rift with the president he helped secure re-election in 2024. The US House of Representatives narrowly approved Trump's legislation last week, which the president describes as his "big, beautiful" bill. The package includes multi-trillion-dollar tax breaks and increased defense spending commitments before heading to the Senate. In an interview with CBS News, Musk expressed disappointment with the plan, stating it "undermines" his cost-cutting efforts for the administration. The tech billionaire had served as Trump's appointed efficiency leader, working to eliminate various government expenditures, including foreign aid programs, before recently announcing his intention to step back from the role. "I was disappointed to see the massive spending bill, frankly," Musk told CBS Sunday Morning in a preview clip released by the broadcaster. He argued that Trump's […]

Trump Administration Freezes All Student Visa Appointments Worldwide

The Trump administration has directed US embassies globally to halt scheduling appointments for student visas while preparing to expand social media screening of applicants. An internal memo indicates that social media vetting will be intensified for student and foreign exchange visas, creating "significant implications" for embassies and consulates worldwide. This directive is part of Trump's broader campaign targeting America's elite universities, which he considers excessively left-wing. The administration has criticized these institutions for inadequately addressing antisemitism during pro-Palestinian campus protests. China has responded by urging the US to protect international students' rights. "We urge the US side to earnestly safeguard the legitimate rights and interests of international students, including those from China," an official stated. Hundreds of thousands of Chinese students currently attend American universities. Universities are expected to be concerned about these measures, as many depend significantly on foreign […]

Scientists Reveal 86% Chance Earth Will Cross Critical Temperature Threshold

Scientists Predict 86% Chance of Temperatures Exceeding 1.5ยฐC Threshold in Next Five Years Global temperatures are projected to exceed 1.5ยฐC above pre-industrial levels during the next five years, according to new scientific analysis. Following 2024's record temperatures that temporarily surpassed the 1.5ยฐC threshold established by international climate agreements, climate predictions indicate an 86% probability that another year within the next five will reach similar levels. The analysis conducted by the World Meteorological Organization (WMO) and the UK's Met Office calculates a 70% probability that the five-year global temperature average will exceed 1.5ยฐC above pre-industrial levels. Research shows an 80% probability that at least one year between 2025 and 2029 will establish a new global temperature record. Climate models indicate, for the first time, a possibility that global average temperatures could surpass 2ยฐC above pre-industrial levels before 2030, although researchers note […]

SpaceX’s $3 Billion Starship Explodes Mid-Flight

SpaceX Starship Experiences In-Flight Breakup During Ninth Test Flight SpaceX conducted its ninth Starship demonstration flight on Tuesday evening from Starbase, the company's launch facility in southern Texas, where residents recently voted to incorporate as an official city. The 403-foot rocket successfully lifted off but did not achieve its primary mission objectives when the spacecraft lost control and broke apart during flight. Following two previous test flights that ended in explosions, SpaceX aimed to deploy mock satellites after liftoff. This objective was not completed due to a malfunction in the payload bay door that prevented it from fully opening. The spacecraft subsequently entered an uncontrolled spin while traveling toward a planned landing zone in the Indian Ocean. SpaceX confirmed the spacecraft experienced what the company terms "rapid unscheduled disassembly," meaning it broke apart in flight. "Teams will continue to review […]

Hamas Claims Deal With US On Gaza Ceasefire But America Says No

Contradictory reports have emerged regarding a potential Gaza ceasefire agreement, with Hamas claiming acceptance of a US proposal while American officials strongly dispute the characterization. According to Al Jazeera sources, Hamas agreed to a ceasefire proposal during meetings with US Middle East envoy Steve Witkoff in Doha, Qatar. The reported deal includes a 60-day ceasefire and the release of 10 living captives held in Gaza across two stages, with President Trump guaranteeing the terms and Israeli troop withdrawal from Gaza. The agreement would also allow unconditional humanitarian aid entry from day one. However, Witkoff rejected claims that Hamas had accepted his proposal, telling Reuters the terms were "completely unacceptable." A US source close to Witkoff described Hamas's claims as "inaccurate" and their offer as "disappointing." Israeli officials also denied that the proposal originated from the US, stating no Israeli government […]

Trump’s $500 Billion Space Shield Sparks Nuclear Arms Race Fears

North Korea has condemned the United States' planned "Golden Dome" missile defense system, warning it could transform "outer space into a potential nuclear war field." The futuristic defense system, which President Donald Trump aims to deploy by the end of his term, is designed to counter "next-generation" aerial threats, including ballistic and cruise missiles targeting the US. Pyongyang's foreign ministry denounced the plan as representing "the height of self-righteousness [and] arrogance," according to state media reports. North Korean officials accused Washington of being "hell-bent... to militarise outer space" and cautioned that the initiative might trigger "a global nuclear and space arms race." Given North Korea's adversarial relationship with Washington and its routine condemnation of US-South Korea joint military exercises, Pyongyang likely views the Golden Dome as a threat that could "significantly weaken" its nuclear capabilities, according to Hong Min, a […]

Trump Calls Putin “Crazy” After Russia’s Biggest Attack on Ukraine Yet

Donald Trump has described Vladimir Putin as "crazy" following Russia's largest aerial assault on Ukraine since the war began. The US president posted on Truth Social: "Something has happened to him. He has gone absolutely crazy. He is needlessly killing a lot of people." Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov characterized this as "a very important moment which is connected to an emotional overload of everyone involved" but maintained Putin was making decisions "necessary for the security" of Russia. Russia launched 355 drones and nine cruise missiles against Ukraine between Sunday evening and Monday morning, according to Kyiv's air force. Ukrainian officials confirmed this was the largest drone attack since Russia's full-scale invasion began in February 2022. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said "only a sense of total impunity" could enable Russia to "carry out such strikes and continue increasing their scale." Kyiv […]

Trump Backs Down From EU Trade War After Von Der Leyen Phone Call

President Donald Trump has reversed course on imposing tariffs against the European Union, extending trade negotiations until July 9 following a telephone conversation with European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen. Trump announced Sunday that he would postpone the 50 percent tariff on EU imports that he had threatened to implement on June 1, just two days after declaring the punitive measures on Friday. The development represents another shift in US trade policy, adding to ongoing uncertainty surrounding Trump's approach to international commerce and its impact on global markets. "[Von der Leyen] said she wants to get down to serious negotiation. We had a very nice call," Trump told reporters. "She said we will rapidly get together and see if we can work something out." Von der Leyen confirmed the positive nature of their discussion, stating that the EU was […]
