Trump claims the US will control strait of Hormuz and get paid for it The US president, Donald Trump, said on Monday that the United States would probably take over the strait of Hormuz and should be reimbursed for controlling the vital waterway. "We're going to keep the strait, and we'll probably run it. We'll become the guardian of the strait. "Maybe we'll call it the guardian angel of the strait. And we should be reimbursed for that," he said in a phone interview on Fox News' Fox + Friends program.

'We're going to hit them hard tonight,' Trump says of Iran Donald Trump warned the US is preparing to launch more strikes against Iran, after he said he considered the US-Iran truce to be “over”. “I’ll give ‌a little warning – we’re going to hit them ‌hard tonight,” the US president told reporters ​at the Nato summit in Turkey. Earlier, when asked by a reporter about the status of the memorandum of understanding signed last month by the US and Iran, Trump responded: “I think it’s over.” Is the text over a picture of Donald Trump, sitting in front of an American flag and a sign for NATO at the NATO summit.
Mr. Trump has been all over the front pages of the Italian papers for weeks. “TRUMP È UN COGLIONE,” screamed the front page of the right-leaning newspaper Libero, using an Italian term of art that has many colorful translations — all of them vulgar.
The second Mr. Trump landed on his Qatari-gifted jumbo jet, the center of gravity at the summit shifted right to where Mr. Trump likes it best: himself.
“I’ll give them a little warning we’re going to hit them hard tonight, but we’ll see how it all works out,” President Trump said at the NATO summit, referring to Iran.

In 2019, during Mr. Trump’s first term, Turkey was thrown out of the F-35 program because it bought advanced S-400 antiaircraft systems from Russia. At the time, Washington’s fear was that Turkey could train the S-400s on the newly provided F-35s, and that Russia would learn how to deal with the fighter jet’s stealth and other missile-avoidance capabilities.

Supreme court rules against Trump's efforts to end birthright citizenship In a stunning rebuke to the Trump administration’s immigration agenda, the US supreme court ruled against the president’s attempt to gut the ability for anyone born on American soil to obtain citizenship. The president issued an executive order on the first day of his second term in office that sought to undo birthright citizenship. It swiftly drew lawsuits, including from the Democratic state attorneys general and the American Civil Liberties Union, and the court heard oral arguments in the case – Trump v Barbara – back in April. In a 6-3 opinion, the justices ruled that the Trump administration violated a provision of the 14th amendment, which was affirmed by the supreme court 128 years ago. While conservative justice Brett Kavanaugh concurred with the judgment, he dissented in parts. The Trump administration said that children born to undocumented immigrants and temporary foreign visitors were ineligible for citizenship, arguing that the landmark decision on birthright citizenship – United States v Wong Kim Ark – relied on parents having permanent “domicile” in the US. However, the term is not included in the 14th amendment.
Supreme court ends limits on campaign spending by political parties in federal elections Also at the court today, the justices struck down limits on campaign spending in federal elections by political parties. In a 6-3 decision along ideological lines, the court held that the law’s “limits on political parties” coordinated expenditures violate the first amendment.
The supreme court has ruled that schools can determine eligibility for women’s and girls’ sports teams based on biological sex. As a result the justices effectively upheld a ban on transgender women and girls from taking part in female sports teams. The ruling centered on the case of Lindsay Hecox, a college student in Idaho, and Becky Pepper-Jackson, a 15-year-old high school student from West Virginia. The court also said that West Virginia and Idaho did not violate Title IX – constitution’s equal protection clause – by maintaining female sports teams for biological females.
The ruling broke with decades of precedent, accepting the White House's argument that Article II of the Constitution gives Mr. Trump the power to dismiss officials without due process. By that theory, he can essentially erase civil service protections, even for public servants — in this case, immigration judges — whose engagement with the law often puts them at odds with Mr. Trump's political aims.

“These sentences are a travesty and totally unjustified, but that’s the point. Americans hate the fascist Trump regime, so the only way they can try to cling to power is brute force,” the representative Rashida Tlaib, a Democrat from Michigan, posted on X. “More bullshit ‘terrorism’ charges like these are coming.” Sanchez-Estrada’s sentence in particular has been condemned by first amendment advocates, who say that it sends a chilling message about the kind of ideological material people are allowed to possess.
