Former US President Donald Trump disavowed responsibility for the ongoing Russia-Ukraine conflict, labeling it “Biden’s war” and asserting that his presidency would have prevented it. He attributed the conflict to the alleged rigging of the 2020 election and criticized both President Biden and President Zelenskyy for their handling of the situation. Trump claimed that he is now working to end the war, despite his previous assertions of having no involvement. This statement follows a deadly Russian strike on Sumy, which Trump described as a “horrible thing.”

President Trump’s action extends the national emergency declared by President Biden in 2021, maintaining sanctions against Russia for another year. This decision cites Russia’s continued threats to U.S. national security, including interference in elections, cyberattacks, and support for transnational corruption. The ongoing activities are deemed an “unusual and extraordinary threat” justifying the continued state of emergency. These actions build upon previous executive orders expanding sanctions against Russia for its harmful foreign activities.

Trump revoking Secret Service protection for Hunter and Ashley Biden is a move that has sparked intense reactions, ranging from outrage to cynical amusement. The timing, coming seemingly in response to a reporter’s question about Hunter Biden’s security detail, suggests a highly reactive and perhaps vindictive motivation. It feels less like a carefully considered policy decision and more like an impulsive act fueled by personal animosity.
The stark contrast between Trump’s own post-presidency extension of Secret Service protection for his family members – a move that cost significant taxpayer funds and involved considerable logistical arrangements – and this abrupt withdrawal of protection for the Biden children underscores the perceived hypocrisy.… Continue reading

President Trump ordered the dismissal of all remaining U.S. attorneys appointed by the Biden administration, citing unprecedented politicization of the Justice Department. This action, while unusual in its abruptness, follows Trump’s campaign promise to depoliticize the DOJ and comes after several Biden-appointed attorneys resigned or were terminated last week. The dismissals represent a significant shakeup within the department, with Trump replacing them with his own nominees requiring Senate confirmation. Trump’s critics, however, express concerns about the ongoing politicization of the Justice Department under his administration.

Astronauts stationed on the International Space Station have indirectly refuted former President Trump’s claim that President Biden abandoned them. The crux of Trump’s assertion seems to be based on a perceived delay in their return to Earth, implying a lack of support from the current administration.
However, the narrative surrounding their delayed return paints a far more complex picture than a simple case of presidential negligence. It appears that the delay stemmed not from a lack of effort on the part of the Biden administration, but rather from logistical issues concerning the spacecraft tasked with their return.
The choice of spacecraft for the astronauts’ return appears to have been a decision made by NASA, not a political choice by the current administration.… Continue reading
