US, Ukraine Sign Rare-Earth Deal MOU | Trump Says Final Agreement Coming Next Week

The United States and Ukraine have signed a preliminary memorandum outlining a deal for access to Ukraine’s rare-earth mineral resources. President Trump confirmed the final agreement could be signed as early as next week. The deal is being positioned by the U.S. as a way to offset the billions spent on assistance to Ukraine during its war with Russia. While Kyiv stresses aid was unconditional, Trump’s comments suggest a transactional motive. Tensions remain over funding, accountability, and political respect between the nations as both sides finalize the details. #Trump #Ukraine #RareEarthDeal #USUkraineDeal #TrumpNews #Zelensky #MineralAgreement #Geopolitics #RussiaUkraine #USPolitics #Minerals #RareEarth #BreakingNews #WorldNews #BidenTrump #USForeignPolicy #UkraineWar #InvestmentFund #Washington #MOU Also Read What Makes Ukraine’s Minerals So Special?

Trump’s Tax Cuts Roar Back: Senate GOP Smashes Through Filibuster | Budget Showdown on Capitol Hill [Video]

Trump’s Tax Cuts Roar Back: Senate GOP Smashes Through Filibuster | Budget Showdown on Capitol Hill

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? #TrumpTaxCuts #SenateVote #BudgetBattle #USPolitics #GOPAgenda #TaxReform #FilibusterBypassed #DonaldTrump #GovernmentSpending #CongressUpdate #OneindiaNews #CapitolHill ~HT.318~PR.274~GR.125~ED.346~
