US President Donald Trump shakes hands with Defence Secretary Pete Hegseth
Trump and Hegseth to address top US generals in unusual military gathering
WASHINGTON — US President Donald Trump and Defence Secretary Pete Hegseth will on Tuesday address American military top brass in person, for an unusual event at a base near Washington DC.Hundreds of military leaders, including generals and admirals stationed around the world, are expected to attend. It represents a rare gathering of so many senior personnel in one place.No official reason was publicly provided when the leaders were summoned at short notice last week, prompting a flurry of speculation. Vice-President JD Vance has sought to downplay the event.Security is extremely tight for the summit, which will take place at Marine Corps Base Quantico, a sprawling 55,000-acre facility in Virginia.Behind the stage on which Hegseth and Trump were expected to speak was a large American...

The most recent government shutdown, during Trump's first term, lasted 35 days, setting a record as the longest in American history
US shutdown looms after Trump and Democrats end meeting without a deal
WASHINGTON — The US is hurtling toward a government shutdown on Tuesday night, and there appears to be little appetite on either side of the partisan divide to avoid it.A last-ditch meeting between President Donald Trump and Democratic leaders in Congress made little progress. If anything, both sides have been digging deeper into their positions."I think we're headed to a shutdown because the Democrats won't do the right thing," Vice President JD Vance told reporters after the meeting at the White House. "You don't put a gun to the American people's head and say, 'Unless you do exactly what Senate and House Democrats want you to do, we're going to shut down your government'."Democratic Senate leader Chuck Schumer said there were still...

YouTube to pay $24.5 million to settle Trump lawsuit
NEW YORK — YouTube agreed to pay $24.5 million to settle a lawsuit filed by President Donald Trump after he was suspended by social media platforms following the January 6, 2021, insurrection.This makes Alphabet-owned YouTube the last of the three Big Tech social media companies sued by Trump — which included Meta and then Twitter, now called X — to settle over his removal from their platforms.YouTube will pay $22 million to settle the claims made by Trump to the nonprofit Trust for the National Mall, which is “dedicated to restoring, preserving, and elevating the National Mall, to support the construction of the White House State Ballroom,” according to a court document.The social media company will also pay $2.5 million to settle with other plaintiffs, such as the nonprofit...

Trump announces 100% tariff on foreign-made movies
WASHINGTON — President Donald Trump said in a Truth Social post on Monday he will be imposing a 100% tariff “on any and all movies that are made outside of the United States.”Trump did not specify when or how the tariff could be enacted.If Trump follows through with his threat, it would mark the first time he’s essentially imposed a tariff on a service rather than a good.The president initially threatened a 100% tariff on foreign-produced movies in May, arguing that other countries offer tax incentives that have drawn filmmakers abroad. In his post on Monday, he singled out California, saying the state “has been particularly hard hit!”The state, meanwhile, has proposed and put in effect many tax incentives, as have other American cities.Hollywood was completely caught off guard...

New York Mayor Eric Adams ends his reelection bid
NEW YORK – Mayor of New York City Eric Adams is ending his reelection bid, a move long sought by rivals of Democratic nominee Zohran Mamdani who have wanted to consolidate the opposition against him.Adams announced his decision Sunday in a video posted to X, saying “despite all we’ve achieved, I cannot continue my reelection campaign, the constant media speculation about my future and the campaign finance board’s decision to withhold millions of dollars have undermined my ability to raise the funds needed for a serious campaign.”“This campaign was for the underserved, the marginalized, the abandoned and betrayed by government,” Adams said. “Since then, it has been my honor to be your mayor, and I’m proud to say that we took that victory four years ago and turned it into...
