A new bruise has appeared on President Trump’s left hand, mirroring a long-standing one on his right, sparking renewed questions about his health. The fresh mark was visible in a video posted on social media from a recent golf outing. White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt has attributed the discoloration to frequent handshaking and aspirin use, while the president’s physician cited potential minor soft tissue irritation. This comes amid previous concerns about Trump’s health, including a diagnosis of Chronic Venous Insufficiency and a lack of transparency surrounding his medical condition.

Starting Sunday night, a limited number of National Guard members in Washington, D.C., will be armed, as directed by the Secretary of Defense. The Joint Task Force in D.C. stated that personnel will carry service weapons but operate under established Rules for the Use of Force. This represents an escalation in the federal intervention in the city, despite declining violent crime rates, with no specific threats necessitating armed guards reported. The decision follows President Trump’s order for a law enforcement crackdown and the earlier deployment of National Guard troops who have primarily focused on landmark protection and crowd control.

He cited San Francisco, alongside other Democrat-led cities, as being “destroyed” by Democratic leadership, particularly regarding crime. However, Mayor Daniel Lurie responded that crime rates in San Francisco have been declining for years. Furthermore, a report from the Council on Criminal Justice confirms a nationwide decrease in offenses in major U.S. cities.

Ghislaine Maxwell, convicted of sex trafficking, has provided testimony clearing former President Donald Trump of any inappropriate behavior, describing him as a gentleman. Despite Maxwell’s history of perjury, her praise for Trump has been welcomed by his supporters. Trump has since dismissed the Epstein case as a “Democrat hoax,” and stated that he “couldn’t care less” about the release of files. The author finds this character certificate from a convicted criminal to be irrelevant, given the multitude of pressing issues.

American Airlines flight diverted after passenger’s device catches fire, and it’s a situation that, frankly, has a lot of us thinking about the batteries we carry around every day. It sounds like the flight crew handled it with practiced efficiency, using those special fireproof bags, diverting the plane, and ultimately getting everyone on the ground safely. We hear about these incidents more and more, it’s a reminder of the potential risks we live with, and the rapid growth of these powerful, compact batteries we depend on, especially in the age of travel.
Speaking of frequent occurrences, according to new FAA data, these lithium-ion battery fires on US flights are happening almost twice a week.… Continue reading
According to The Washington Post, the Pentagon has been planning a military deployment to Chicago, potentially serving as a model for similar actions in other cities, particularly those run by Democrats. Multiple plans are being considered, including the deployment of thousands of National Guard troops. Meanwhile, Trump has threatened to send troops to Baltimore, despite declining crime rates in both cities.

Let’s break down this whole idea of the German government calling recognition of a Palestinian state “counterproductive.” It’s a loaded statement, and it’s sparking a lot of different reactions, all intertwined with the complexities of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
The core argument against immediate recognition seems to revolve around the current situation. The German government, like many others, appears to be saying that with the ongoing issues – the hostages, the need to disarm Hamas, and the unresolved questions about the very nature of a future Palestinian state – simply acknowledging a Palestinian state at this moment wouldn’t actually help move things toward a lasting peace.… Continue reading
Ukraine drone hits Russian nuclear plant, sparks huge fire at Novatek’s Ust-Luga terminal, according to the information, began with an early morning incident at the Kursk Nuclear Power Plant, which lies relatively close to the Ukrainian border. Reports indicate that a drone was successfully intercepted by air defenses, but not before it caused damage to an auxiliary transformer near the plant. This damage, in turn, necessitated a significant reduction – a 50% cut – in the operational capacity of reactor number three. It’s a situation that immediately raises alarms, given the sensitive nature of nuclear facilities and the potential for serious consequences.… Continue reading
Representative Nicole Collier found herself in a political standoff in the Texas Capitol after refusing to sign a permission slip and accept a police escort. She was confined to the Capitol building for two nights, a situation she described as “house arrest.” During this time, she participated in a DNC call from a restroom, facing restrictions on her movement. Collier’s ordeal led to debates about whether it constituted “house arrest,” with legal opinions and the Texas Monthly writer Christopher Hooks, offering different perspectives, and Collier herself arguing that she was deprived of her rights.
