with the Administration’s previous
commitments to give at least
60 days’ notice prior to termination
of the (public health emergency), White House statement, via CNN.
The decision will also end enhanced
social safety net benefits put in place to help
minimize the impact of the pandemic on the nation.
People will have to start paying some
money for things they didn’t have to pay
for during the emergency.
That’s the main
thing people will start to notice, Jen Kates, Senior vice president
at the Kaiser Family Foundation, via CNN.
CNN reports that the U.S. government has been looking to
shift COVID care to the commercial market since 2022,
partly due to Congress not authorizing additional funds.
Starting in March of 2020, states had been
barred from kicking people off Medicaid
amid the public health emergency.

Human Services, an estimated 15 million people could lose

Former President Donald Trump rolled back an Obama-Biden era rule limiting showerheads to 2.5 gallons per minute, calling the regulation “ridiculous.” During his White House tenure, Trump joked about the low water pressure affecting his ability to shower and wash his “beautiful hair.” The move was part of his sweeping deregulation campaign and extended to toilets, dishwashers, and more. Supporters see it as a win for personal freedom, while critics warn it could waste water and raise energy bills. Biden later reinstated the original rule after taking office.

The US is reportedly considering withdrawing up to 10,000 troops from Eastern Europe, NBC reports. These forces were initially deployed by the Biden administration after the Ukraine conflict intensified. Trump’s focus now shifts to China, as ceasefire talks with Russia gain momentum. NATO allies in Poland and Romania, where most troops are stationed, fear this signals a US retreat. Experts warn it could embolden Moscow. As Trump pushes Europe to boost its defense spending, a new strategic order is brewing, with troop cuts likely reshaping NATO’s eastern flank.

The U.S. has revoked all visas held by South Sudanese passport holders and halted future issuances, Secretary of State Marco Rubio announced Saturday. The decision follows Juba’s alleged refusal to accept deported nationals. The State Department criticized South Sudan’s transitional government for “taking advantage” of U.S. leniency. The move comes amid worsening instability in South Sudan, which faces mass displacement and food crises. The Biden administration says visa restrictions will remain until full cooperation is ensured. South Sudan’s Foreign Ministry and the UN have not responded to requests for comment.

A U.S. federal judge has ordered the White House to reinstate Associated Press access to presidential events. The AP was removed from the press pool after refusing to adopt President Trump’s renaming of the Gulf of Mexico to the “Gulf of America.” The court ruled the exclusion violated First Amendment protections. While the AP isn’t guaranteed first-in-line status, the judge said it must not be treated unfairly. The decision affirms media rights amid accusations of press suppression by the Trump administration, which had called the AP “radical” for not complying.

President Trump claims tariffs are bringing in $2 billion a day to the U.S. Treasury, calling it a "huge win" for America. Speaking at a White House event, he boasted that countries are lining up to cut deals. However, no data supports his staggering figure—Treasury records show an average of just $200 million per day. Critics and analysts remain skeptical, pointing to exaggerated numbers and rising consumer costs. As the trade war escalates, economic uncertainty looms and Americans may be the ones paying the price.

President Donald Trump claims foreign leaders are "kissing his ass" to avoid upcoming steep tariffs, calling his strategy a success. Speaking at an NRCC dinner, Trump boasted that dozens of countries are desperate for tailored trade deals. His administration’s new tariffs – including a staggering 104% on Chinese goods – take effect Wednesday. Trump also targeted GOP critics and vowed the tariff issue would help Republicans win big in 2026. Critics argue the strategy hurts U.S. consumers, but Trump insists it’s boosting the economy and collecting billions in revenue.

U.S. Congressman Al Green has vowed to launch impeachment proceedings against Donald Trump within 30 days, calling the former president a “Goliath” who has amassed dangerous levels of power. Speaking at the “Hands Off!” protest rally in Washington, Green likened himself to David and accused Trump of illegally dominating Congress, the military, and the justice system. The protest also condemned Trump and Elon Musk for their alleged corruption and control over federal policy. Green’s move marks a third push to impeach Trump, despite Republican dominance in both the House and Senate.

In a dramatic late-night session, Senate Republicans passed a budget blueprint that sets the stage for extending Donald Trump’s tax cuts — and they did it without a single Democratic vote. By bypassing the filibuster through budget reconciliation, the GOP now has a clear path to push through Trump’s economic, military, and border priorities.
With $5 trillion in potential spending cuts and a looming debt ceiling crisis, this vote marks the beginning of a high-stakes budget war on Capitol Hill. Will this reshape America’s economic future — or ignite political chaos?

Donald Trump: Mass layoffs have rocked the U.S. Health and Human Services Department (HHS) as up to 10,000 employees face termination under a sweeping restructuring plan ordered by Donald Trump. The move follows an executive order stripping collective bargaining rights from federal health agencies, sparking outrage among Democratic lawmakers and unions. Key agencies affected include the FDA, CDC, NIH, and CMS, with major cuts in healthcare oversight, medical research, and public health funding. Critics warn of a devastating impact on disease prevention, pandemic response, and federal healthcare programs. Is this a move for efficiency, or a dangerous power play?
