Trump Insists On Gaza Takeover, Says "Nothing To Buy, Will Take It" Amid Global Backlash | Details

President Donald Trump has doubled down on his plan to "own" Gaza, proposing to displace 2.2 million Palestinians and place Gaza under U.S. authority. While Trump insists the region can be redeveloped and will benefit the Middle East, Jordan's King Abdullah II has pushed back, citing the unified Arab stance against Palestinian displacement. Meanwhile, Egypt is working on a plan to address Gaza's reconstruction while ensuring Palestinians remain. Trump also faces growing resistance as tensions over Gaza’s future escalate. #Trump #Gaza #Palestinians #MiddleEast #USPolitics #KingAbdullahII #GazaTakeover #USAuthority #PalestinianDisplacement #GazaPlan #TrumpPlan #PalestinianCause #Jordan #Egypt #Reconstruction #MiddleEastPeace #USForeignPolicy #PalestinianRights #GazaCrisis #TrumpProposal #ArabPosition #Peripheral

Trump, Musk Unveil Goal of Dept of Govt Efficiency, Call Federal Cuts ‘Essential’ in Oval Office

Joined by Elon Musk, President Trump signed an executive order to slash federal jobs and overhaul government agencies. Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) will lead the effort, aiming to cut wasteful spending and reduce bureaucracy. The order mandates a four-to-one hiring freeze and new conduct rules for federal hires. With legal challenges from unions and federal judges intervening, Trump’s ambitious plan faces hurdles. Critics call it a power grab, while supporters hail it as a long-overdue reform to rein in government excess. #Trump #ElonMusk #FederalCuts #GovernmentJobs #WorkforceReduction #ExecutiveOrder #MAGA #BudgetCuts #WhiteHouse #DOGE #GovernmentReform #TrumpAdministration #PublicSector #FederalEmployees #WashingtonDC #Bureaucracy #HiringFreeze #PoliticalNews #BreakingNews #USPolitics Also Read Trump Administration Plans Major USAID Overhaul, To Fire Over 10K Staff :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-administration-plans-major-usaid-overhaul-to-fire-over-10k-staff-4064547.html?ref=DMDesc US Govt Shuts Down Hundreds Of Govt Websites.

U.S Taxpayers Funded Trans Clinic in India? Senator Blows Whistle | Musk Slams ‘Wasteful Spending’

A shocking revelation has emerged as Senator John Kennedy claims that USAID, the U.S. government's humanitarian agency, funded a transgender clinic in India—sparking outrage among conservatives. Elon Musk weighed in, calling the agency a "criminal organization" and backing calls for a crackdown on what some believe is "wasteful spending" of American taxpayer money. With the Trump administration already scrutinizing USAID's budget and foreign aid policies, could this signal the end of such funding programs? Watch as we break down the controversy, political reactions, and what it means for USAID's future. #ElonMusk #USAID #India #TransgenderClinic #SenatorKennedy #Trump #USPolitics #TaxpayerMoney #ForeignAid #LGBTQ #BreakingNews

Trump Defends Elon Musk with a Smile: ‘He’s Not Shy!’ | Elon Musk’s Press Moment Incoming?

During a press conference with Japan’s PM Ishiba, Trump dismissed concerns, calling Musk "not shy" and praising his efforts in uncovering government fraud.

Watch | Boston University Staffer Posts 'Dead or Alive' Threat Against Musk’s DOGE Employees

Boston University staff member Jared May ignited controversy after posting a "Wanted for Treason, Dead or Alive" graphic targeting Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) employees. DOGE, led by Elon Musk, aims to cut government waste, a key Trump 2024 campaign promise. May’s social media post, featuring young DOGE staffers, sparked backlash, prompting Musk to call it a "crime." Boston University distanced itself, but May’s staff webpage was removed. As Democrats label DOGE an "unelected shadow government," Musk claims the outrage confirms its mission's importance. The university has yet to respond officially. #BostonUniversity #ElonMusk #DOGE #GovernmentEfficiency #Trump #PoliticalControversy #SocialMedia #Threats #BreakingNews #DemocratsVsMusk #ChuckSchumer #Bluesky #Crime #TechNews #GovernmentSpending #FreeSpeechDebate #PoliticalTensions #MediaBuzz #MuskVsDemocrats #UniversityScandal #Peripherel ~ED.102~HT.334~
