Donald Trump is expected to announce a trade deal between the United States and the United Kingdom on Thursday. The president, who has sought to improve America's standing in trade relations after accusing many partners of ripping them off, previewed a major deal to be made on Thursday. Trump wrote: 'Big News Conference tomorrow morning at 10:00 A.M., The Oval Office, concerning a MAJOR TRADE DEAL WITH REPRESENTATIVES OF A BIG, AND HIGHLY RESPECTED, COUNTRY. THE FIRST OF MANY!!!' The New York Times reported that the country in question was the United Kingdom. DailyMail.com has reached out to the White House for comment.

Western Carolina University is not changing its Title IX policy to comply with President Donald Trump’s executive action after the school was embroiled in a dispute last year over a male attempting to use women’s bathrooms. WCU administrators refused to update their Title IX policy to comply with Trump’s order restoring sex segregation to federally funded colleges and universities and have instead continued to allow males in women’s spaces, according to public records provided to National Review by right-leaning campus watchdog group Speech First. “For years, advocates have worried that Title IX procedures on campus have become weaponized – and these emails highlight that such concerns

It seems like a lifetime ago because politics moves at the speed of light these days, but just a few short years ago, Democrats and major corporations were losing their minds over the so-called "Don't Say Gay" bill in Florida. As the claim went, Gov. Ron DeSantis was such an authoritarian, fascist dictator that he was literally banning people in his state from even whispering the words synonymous with homosexuality. Of course, there was nothing true about that claim. In actuality, the bill (now law) centered on parental rights regarding what their children were exposed to in schools. Specifically, it removed books

On Tuesday’s broadcast of the Fox News Channel’s “Ingraham Angle,” Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said that the U.S. doesn’t want a total decoupling from China, just a decoupling on “strategic industries” and “we have shared interests that this isn’t sustainable,” and China “can have at it” for mass production of things like clothes and sneakers. Bessent began by saying that “we have shared interests that this isn’t sustainable, as I said before, especially on the Chinese side. And 145%, 125% is the equivalent of an embargo. We don’t want to decouple. What we want is fair trade.”

WASHINGTON/BEIJING - U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent and chief trade negotiator Jamieson Greer will meet China's economic tsar He Lifeng in Switzerland this weekend for talks that could be the first step toward resolving a trade war disrupting the global economy. News of the meeting announced by Washington late Tuesday, and later confirmed by Beijing, sent U.S. equity index futures sharply higher, while stock markets in China and Hong Kong also rose as Asian trading began on Wednesday. The talks come after weeks of escalating tensions that have seen duties on goods imports between the world's two largest economies soar well beyond 100%, amounting to what Bessent on Tuesday

President Donald Trump on Tuesday announced the U.S. will stop its bombing campaign against the Houthis in Yemen after the terrorist group told him they "don't want to fight." "They just don't want to fight," Trump told reporters from the Oval Office. "They just don't want to, and we will honor that. We will stop the bombings." Trump said the bombings on Houthi targets will stop "effectively immediately." Secretary of State Marco Rubio then said the "job" was to get attacks on ships in the region to stop. "If that's going to stop, we will stop," he added.

Israeli warplanes carried out a wave of airstrikes in Yemen on Tuesday afternoon, which the military said “completely disabled” Sanaa International Airport in the Houthi-controlled capital and hit other targets. The strikes, for the second day in a row, came in response to the Iran-backed group’s repeated missile and drone attacks on Israel, including one missile that hit inside the grounds of Ben Gurion Airport on Sunday, the Israel Defense Forces said. Dozens of Israeli Air Force aircraft were involved in the strikes on Yemen on Tuesday, including fighter jets, refuelers, and spy planes. The IDF said the fighter jets dropped 50 munitions on the targets

WASHINGTON, - The United States may deport migrants to Libya for the first time this week, three U.S. officials said on Tuesday, despite Washington's past condemnation of its human rights practices and harsh treatment of detainees. Two of the officials said the U.S. military could fly the migrants to the North African country as soon as Wednesday, but stressed that plans could still change. The Pentagon referred queries to the White House. The White House, State Department and Department of Homeland Security did not immediately respond to requests for comment. Reuters could not determine how many migrants would be sent to Libya or the nationalities

WASHINGTON - The U.S. government will not pay for a high-speed rail line planned between Los Angeles and San Francisco, President Donald Trump told reporters at the White House on Tuesday, citing cost overruns. The Republican president's administration in February began probing whether to rescind about $4 billion in federal funds awarded to California's High-Speed Rail project. "This government is not going to pay," Trump told reporters during a meeting with Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney. Voters approved $10 billion for the project in 2008 but the costs have risen sharply and Trump has sharply criticized the effort. The Transportation Department under former President Joe Biden awarded the project about $4 billion.

Newly elected Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney told President Donald Trump that Canada is “not for sale” during a meeting in the Oval Office on Tuesday. Asked by a reporter about his repeated suggestions that Canada could become the United States’s 51st state, Trump said, “I still believe that, but … it takes two to tango.” Trump suggested there would be a “lot of advantages” if Canada were to join the U.S., including a “massive tax cut” for Canadians. “I’m a real estate developer at heart,” he said. “When you get rid of that artificially drawn line

Centre-right leader Friedrich Merz is the new Chancellor of Germany on the second time of trying, ten weeks after an inconclusive national election that left Merz negotiating for a coalition with the defeated left-wing. History was made on Tuesday in Berlin after it took two attempts to get through just the formality of electing the head of the incoming governing coalition as Chancellor — Germany’s Prime Minister analogue — the first having stumbled for the want of just six votes. Although the German constitution provides for such an outcome, this is the first time it has ever happened, and augers ill for the stability

The 2025 Pulitzer Prize winners were announced Monday afternoon from Columbia University in New York. Widely regarded as the top honor in U.S. journalism, the Pulitzers recognize outstanding reporting, commentary and storytelling. This year’s awards come at a fraught moment for the press, as journalists confront escalating threats to press freedom from the Trump administration, including efforts to control the White House press pool, oust wire services like The Associated Press and defund public and international media.
