TRUMP’S Bold Iran Strikes Spark Heartfelt Plea From Pope LEO
— Pope Leo spoke out on Sunday about the rising tension in the Middle East. He shared his worries after President Trump’s powerful strikes on Iran’s nuclear sites. While he didn’t mention the attacks by name, he warned that war brings more pain and suffering.
He said, “No military victory can ever compensate for a mother’s pain, a child’s fear, or a stolen future.” The Pope urged leaders to work harder for peace and stop things from getting worse.
Pope Leo asked world leaders to act with responsibility and calm. He warned that peace should not be lost because of weapons or angry words.
He finished by urging countries to pick talks over fighting. According to him, people everywhere are desperate for peace right now.
ISRAEL SHUTS Airspace in Bold Move After US Strikes Iranian Nuclear Sites
— Israel closed its airspace to all flights on Sunday after the United States hit Iranian nuclear sites. This strong response shows Israel is serious about stopping Iran’s nuclear program, and now America is stepping in directly.
Iran says there’s no radioactive danger at the sites that were targeted, including Isfahan, Fordo, and Natanz. Officials claim their detectors found no leaks and people living nearby are safe.
The International Atomic Energy Agency backed this up. They reported no release of radioactive material after earlier Israeli strikes on similar locations.
Tensions are running high across the Middle East. Many now worry these attacks could spark a much bigger conflict in the region.
EUROPEAN Ministers DELIVER Bold Warning Over Iran’S Nuclear Threat
— European leaders held tense talks with Iran’s foreign minister in Geneva on Friday. The meeting lasted over four hours as they pushed Iran to help end the war with Israel and drop its nuclear ambitions. Britain’s David Lammy made it clear: “Iran cannot have a nuclear weapon,” and urged Tehran to keep talking with the United States.
France and Germany backed this tough stance. They said there is no military answer to the conflict and pressed for real negotiations instead of more fighting. France’s Jean-Noël Barrot called on Iran to stop backing terrorist groups, free Western hostages, and come clean about its nuclear plans.
The talks also covered Iran’s support for Russia in Ukraine, especially through drone shipments, as well as concerns about its missile program. German Foreign Minister Johann Wadephul said the discussions were “serious,” but admitted that getting Iran to work with Washington is still very hard because Tehran blames America for Israel’s actions.
TRUMP’S Court Victory Shocks California: National Guard Power Grab Upheld
— A federal appeals court ruled Thursday that President TRUMP acted within his rights when he took control of the California National Guard during the Los Angeles protests. The court blocked a lower ruling that said Trump’s move was illegal because Governor Gavin Newsom did not approve it. This is the first time since 1965 a president has federalized a state’s Guard without the governor’s OK.
The Ninth Circuit judges said Trump had enough proof to send in troops, pointing to violent attacks on federal officers and property by protesters. The court noted that protesters pinned down officers, threw dangerous objects, and damaged buildings.
The panel clarified that presidents don’t have unlimited power over state Guards, but Newsom could not block Trump’s order — even if he wasn’t notified first as usually required by law.
This decision strengthens presidential power to protect federal interests during violent unrest — even if Democrat-led states like California try to resist.;
ISRAEL-IRAN Missile Attacks Spark Fear: Jerusalem Residents Stunned
— Missiles soared over Jerusalem as the fight between ISRAEL and IRAN hit a dangerous new level. People in the city watched in shock as sirens wailed and explosions filled the sky. Many families rushed to shelters, worried about what might come next.
Iran’s foreign minister, Abbas Araghchi, is now heading to Geneva. He plans to meet with European leaders for urgent talks on Friday. Iran’s state media confirmed these meetings are meant to discuss ways to calm things down.
Tensions have been building for weeks, with both countries trading threats and warnings. Now, many fear this could turn into something even bigger if world leaders do not step in soon.
Fox News will keep updating readers on this story through its liveblog as new details come out.
MINNESOTA SHOCK: “Police” Disguise Tricks Lawmakers in Deadly Attack
— A Minnesota man, Vance Luther Boelter, is accused of killing former state House Speaker Melissa Hortman and her husband. He also wounded Senator John Hoffman and his wife. Police say Boelter wore a fake police uniform, body armor, and carried a Beretta 9mm handgun during the attacks.
Boelter drove a black SUV with flashing lights and a “police” license plate to look like real law enforcement. His background in security work is raising big questions about how he got police gear so easily.
Acting U.S. Attorney Joseph H. Thompson described chilling footage showing Boelter pretending to be an officer to get inside before shooting. Even trained officers could have been fooled by his disguise, said former NYPD officer Bill Stanton.
Federal charges are expected soon as officials call this a “targeted” attack on public servants. The investigation continues into how someone with security ties pulled off such a shocking crime using police gear meant for trust and safety.
ISRAEL STRIKES Spark Fear in Tehran as Trump Urges Mass Evacuation
— Israel’s air campaign against Iran has hit a dangerous new point. Israeli forces told hundreds of thousands to leave central Tehran. Explosions shook the city, even near Iran’s state-run TV building. Panic spread quickly, and one TV anchor ran off live on air.
Former President Donald Trump spoke out online, saying, “IRAN CAN NOT HAVE A NUCLEAR WEAPON,” and called for people in Tehran to evacuate right away. His warning highlights growing fears about Iran’s nuclear plans and the safety of innocent families trapped in the fighting.
White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt said Trump is ending his G7 summit trip early because of rising tensions between Israel and Iran.
World leaders are watching closely as this crisis continues to unfold.
ISRAEL’S Bold Strike Shakes Iran: Netanyahu’s Urgent Plea for Freedom
— Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu spoke directly to the people of Iran after Israel targeted Iran’s nuclear and military sites. He called on them to rise up against their oppressive leaders, saying this is a rare chance for real change. “We are in the midst of one of the greatest military operations in history,” Netanyahu told viewers.
Netanyahu believes these strikes have weakened Iran’s regime and opened a door for those who want freedom. He highlighted that minority groups — about half of Iran’s population — could make a difference if they come together against the government.
Some experts say Israel’s actions could also give America more power in future nuclear talks with Iran. The Iranian regime has struggled with growing protests since Mahsa Amini died at the hands of morality police in 2022.
Iran still backs terrorism across the Middle East, threatening its neighbors and Israel. With more Iranians speaking out, calls for regime change are getting louder both inside and outside the country.
EU CLIMATE RULES Spark Outrage: New Mandates Threaten Jobs and Wallets
— The European Union just passed strict new climate rules, aiming for carbon neutrality by 2040. Leaders say this plan will slash greenhouse gases by 55% before 2030. The changes include tighter rules for factories and cars, plus more spending on wind and solar power.
Supporters call the policy “historic,” claiming it puts Europe ahead in the fight against climate change. But many warn these rules could raise prices for families and hurt businesses already struggling with high costs. The EU says these steps are needed to meet global climate promises.
A big part of the plan is pouring money into green projects like electric cars and solar panels. Backers hope this sparks new ideas, but critics worry about lost jobs and a weaker economy.
This is a huge shift in Europe’s approach to energy as of June 13, 2025. Conservatives across the globe are watching closely — concerned that these risky policies could threaten both Europe’s economy and its energy security.
TRUMP’S Bold NEW Trade Tarifs Spark Hope And Fear
— President Trump announced he will set tough new US tariff rates on China in the coming weeks. He says this move is needed to fix America’s trade gap with China and put American workers first. Details on the exact tariffs are still unclear, but Trump’s message is strong — America will not back down.
The latest Consumer Price Index shows inflation rose just 0.1% last month and 2.4% over the year, barely above April’s numbers. Some worry that higher tariffs might push prices up, but so far inflation remains low, giving Trump room to act without hurting families at the checkout line.
Trade talks between US and Chinese leaders are happening in London right now, but no deal has been reached yet. Many businesses warn they may have to raise prices for shoppers once their current stock runs out if tariffs go up further.
Investors and everyday Americans are watching closely as President Trump sticks to his America First plan and takes a tough stand against China’s unfair trade practices. The next few weeks could shape the future of US jobs, prices, and global markets.
PENTAGON SHOCKS Allies With Bold “America First” Move on Aukus Submarine Deal
— The Pentagon is rethinking the AUKUS nuclear submarine deal with Australia and the United Kingdom. This review comes as President Biden’s team focuses more on “America First” policies and tries to fix problems in U.S. shipyards. Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth says American military strength must come before anything else.
The original plan had Australia buying Virginia-class submarines from the U.S., with all three countries working together on a new submarine design in the future. The deal also promised to share cutting-edge technology like cyber tools, artificial intelligence, and hypersonic weapons.
Some defense leaders are worried about sending submarines overseas while America’s own Navy needs more ships. One Pentagon official said, “This review will make sure we put America first.”
Now, the future of AUKUS is uncertain as Washington decides whether to honor deals with allies or focus only on national needs.
TESLA’S Bold Nevada Gamble: Will This Powerhouse Plant Change America’s Future?
— Tesla just revealed plans for a giant battery plant in Nevada, called “Gigafactory Nevada.” The goal is to double its battery output and lower the price of electric vehicles across the country. Tesla says the factory will make over 100 gigawatt-hours of batteries each year, starting as soon as September 2025. CEO Elon Musk promises new automation and advanced battery tech.
Nevada officials are cheering on the $3 billion project, calling it a big win for local jobs and the economy. Experts think this move could help Tesla dodge supply chain headaches and make electric cars more available to American families.
But there’s another side to this story. Democrats keep pushing green energy rules that often use taxpayer money as incentives. Conservatives warn about too much government in private business but admit it’s better for America to lead than let China control key technology.
When Gigafactory Nevada opens, it could shake up both U.S. carmakers and global clean energy markets. Only time will tell if Tesla’s risky bet pays off for workers, drivers, and taxpayers across America.
TRUMP’S Bold Steel Tarifs Shock Markets, Spark Global Showdown
— President Trump just doubled tariffs on steel and aluminum to 50%, starting June 4, 2025. He says this move will protect American jobs and factories. The sharp increase has rattled global markets and put pressure on countries like China and India.
The federal trade court is now hearing lawsuits over these new tariffs. At the same time, the U.S. is in talks with India to lower taxes on farm goods and cars. Trump’s team hopes for a big trade deal by fall, showing he means business when it comes to tough trade rules.
Harvard University has filed a lawsuit against the administration’s tariff policy. This case could set new limits for what the government can do in future trade fights. Both sides are getting ready for a major legal battle.
Meanwhile, world leaders are watching closely. Brazil’s President Lula is heading to the BRICS summit while backing peace talks between Russia and Ukraine. In Colombia, violence hit home as Senator Miguel Uribe Turbay survived gunfire at a rally — a grim sign of unrest abroad.
RETAIL APOCALYPSE Shock: 15,000 US Stores To Close In 2025
— A tidal wave of store closures is about to hit America. Experts warn that nearly 15,000 retail locations will shut their doors in 2025. That’s more than double last year’s record and the biggest wave since the pandemic rocked the country.
Joann Fabrics will close almost 500 stores after several bankruptcy filings. Macy’s plans to shutter at least 66 more locations next year and wants to close around 150 underperforming sites by 2026. Walgreens is also set to shut down about 500 pharmacies as it tries to cut costs.
Other big names like Kohl’s, Advance Auto Parts, Party City, Big Lots, Neiman Marcus, CVS, and Family Dollar are following suit. They blame inflation and weak demand for these tough choices as online shopping keeps growing.
These shutdowns mean lost jobs and struggling local economies across America. While some call this a needed reset for retail giants, many towns will lose trusted businesses that have served them for generations.
LE PEN Shocker: France Stunned as China Threatens and Trump Fights for America
— French courts convicted Marine Le Pen of embezzlement, banning her from office for five years and sentencing her to prison. Le Pen and her National Rally party slammed the ruling as political. They promised to keep fighting, calling the decision an attack on democracy.
Italy’s Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni spoke out, saying the court’s move was a blow to freedom in France. Le Pen’s supporters are not backing down. They are pushing ahead with their campaigns, refusing to give up.
At the same time, China ramped up military drills near Taiwan. Chinese warships and jets circled the island after Taiwan’s president announced new steps against Chinese influence. The message from Beijing was clear: don’t challenge us.
Meanwhile in America, President Trump doubled tariffs on steel and aluminum imports to 50%. The White House is readying aid for farmers who could be hurt by foreign retaliation. Trump is also pressing China and India to lower their trade barriers — showing he will not back down when it comes to protecting American jobs.
US-CHINA TRADE Showdown: High-Stakes Talks Spark Hope and Fear
— American and Chinese officials met for more than six hours Monday at Lancaster House in London. The focus was on trade and export controls, with both sides set to return Tuesday morning. President Trump said, “We are doing well with China,” sharing only positive news from his team.
Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent led the U.S. group, joined by Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick and Trade Representative Jamieson Greer. Lutnick’s involvement shows that export controls — especially on microchips needed for AI — are a main topic in these talks.
Bessent called it a “good meeting” as he left, giving reporters a thumbs up. Lutnick described the talks as “fruitful.”
Chinese Vice Premier He Lifeng led China’s side but did not speak to reporters after leaving the session. Both countries remain tight-lipped about details, keeping Americans guessing about what comes next in this tense standoff.
CHINA’S Bold Threat: Massive Military Drills Near Taiwan Spark Global Alarm
— China is flexing its military power near Taiwan, launching huge drills with missiles and warships. Beijing says it’s responding to “outside interference” and what it calls “provocations” from Taiwan’s leaders.
Experts say this is a clear warning from China. They want to scare off anyone supporting Taiwanese independence. The United States has stepped up patrols nearby, showing support for Taiwan and pushing back against China’s aggression.
America’s allies in the West are paying close attention as the situation heats up in East Asia. Many worry that one wrong move could set off a much bigger fight.
Tensions remain high, with both sides watching each other closely. The world waits to see what happens next as freedom hangs in the balance for millions in the region.
BUSINESS PANIC: Bank Collapse, Tech Fraud Trial, And Massive Layoffs Rock America
— A billionaire tech boss is on trial in Manhattan, accused of cheating investors out of $500 million. Richard Caldwell’s case has grabbed headlines because he’s a big name in Silicon Valley. Prosecutors say he tricked people by hiding profits and playing games with stocks.
Last night, First National Bank failed after customers rushed to pull out their money. Federal agents took over this morning and handed the bank to the FDIC. This collapse is making folks worry about whether other local banks are safe.
OpenAI just scored $40 billion from investors led by SoftBank Group. The company now sits at a whopping $300 billion value. Even with all the talk about a shaky economy, big players are still betting on artificial intelligence.
Business Insider cut 21% of its workers as part of CEO Barbara Peng’s new plan. The company is dropping its Commerce team to save money. At the same time, President Biden slammed Bangladesh for banning an opposition party but faces heat here at home for rising prices and school budget cuts.
FIRST NATIONAL Bank Collapse Sends Shockwaves Through US Economy
— First National Bank, a top lender in the Southeast, went under last night after a rush of withdrawals and talk of poor management. Federal regulators took over this morning, handing control to the FDIC.
The failure has already shut down several branches and shaken investors. The Dow Jones dropped more than 400 points at the opening bell. Now, many fear other regional banks could be in trouble as panic spreads.
Officials from the Federal Reserve and FDIC are trying to calm everyone down. They say insured deposits are safe and promise quick action to steady things. Regulators are watching closely for signs that problems might spread to other banks.
This is one of the biggest bank failures since 2008 and puts America’s banking system under pressure during President Biden’s term. The situation is changing fast as leaders work to stop more damage and restore trust in U.S. banks.
TRUMP’S Auto TAX Shock: Jaguar Land Rover Halts US Sales, Allies Stunned
— Jaguar Land Rover has stopped shipping cars to the United States after President Trump’s team put new tariffs on vehicles made in the UK. The US is Britain’s second-biggest car market, worth about £7.6 billion a year. This sudden pause could hurt the UK economy and shake up supply chains around the world.
Industry leaders warn these tariffs could backfire on Americans too. John Neill, head of Unipart, said they might “box out” American carmakers from global markets instead of saving jobs at home. Some experts say Chinese companies may swoop in as buyers hunt for cheaper cars.
Prime Minister Keir Starmer is now racing to talk with Washington and fix things fast. He says Britain does not want a trade war but will fight back if needed.
President Trump says these tariffs are meant to help American factories and protect workers here at home. But this bold move could strain ties with close allies and change how the auto industry works worldwide.
TRUMP-INSPIRED Hero DJ Daniel Faces Heartbreaking Cancer Fight
— Devarjaye “DJ” Daniel, the 13-year-old who moved President Trump and was made an honorary Secret Service agent, is now facing a new battle. Doctors found three more brain tumors. His father, Theodis Daniel, shared the news this week. Support and prayers are pouring in from the White House and police across America.
DJ first captured hearts when Trump honored him before Congress last year. In 2018, doctors said he had less than five months to live. But DJ kept fighting.
Since then, DJ has been sworn into over 1,350 law enforcement agencies across the country — more than anyone before him.
The Texas teen still dreams of being a police officer one day. He continues to inspire others with his courage and determination despite his tough diagnosis.

NEW ORLEANS Jailbreak Shock: Dangerous Escapees Humiliate Security, Two Still Missing
— Three more inmates who broke out of a New Orleans jail on May 16 have been caught, police said Monday. One was found in Baton Rouge, and two others were picked up in Walker County, Texas. But two dangerous escapees are still on the loose.
The jailbreak exposed major security problems at the jail. The inmates got out by forcing open a broken cell door, crawling through a hole behind a toilet, and climbing over barbed wire at night. Guards didn’t notice they were missing until the morning headcount.
Adding insult to injury, the escapees left graffiti mocking jail staff. They wrote “To Easy LoL” with an arrow showing their escape route. City and state leaders admit there were serious mistakes in how the jail was run.
Most of these men were locked up for violent crimes like murder while waiting for trial or sentencing. Police are still hunting for the last two fugitives as many demand answers about how this embarrassing jailbreak happened.
NO NEW World News Shocks: Global Headlines Fall Silent Outside UK and US

Ongoing events like Russian attacks in Ukraine and Southeast Asia’s humanitarian problems are still being reported. However, nothing new or urgent has come up at this time.
This rare pause in international headlines shows a moment of calm outside the usual trouble spots. For now, people are watching the same conflicts and crises already known to the public.
PRIVATE JET Tragedy Rocks SAN Diego: Neighborhood Shaken by Deadly Inferno
— A private jet crashed into a San Diego neighborhood early Thursday, killing music agent Dave Shapiro and five others. The plane hit a power line in thick fog, then slammed into a home. Flames quickly spread, setting cars and nearby houses on fire.
Families in the Navy-owned housing area woke up to explosions and walls of fire outside their windows. Police Chief Scott Wahl called it “horrific” as jet fuel poured down the street, lighting everything in its path. Eight people were sent to the hospital with smoke inhalation or minor injuries.
Thankfully, no residents died in the crash. Authorities evacuated several blocks while firefighters battled the flames. Shapiro’s company worked with famous bands like Hanson and Sum 41.
The cause of this deadly crash is still under investigation by local officials.
UK BORDER CHAOS Sparks Fury: Security Failures Shake US and Europe
— The UK’s strict new immigration crackdown has left left-wing groups furious and triggered protests in London. The Conservative government is celebrating, saying their tough policies are behind a sharp drop in migration numbers. Critics are shocked at how quickly the numbers have fallen.
A British court stopped the handover of the Chagos Islands, causing a political storm both in the UK and overseas. Meanwhile, a mass prison break in New Orleans — blamed on help from inside — has exposed major problems with prison security and restarted debates about funding.
Security fears hit Washington D.C. after a shooting at the Israeli Embassy raised concerns about safety for diplomats. In London, police stopped an Iranian-backed attack plot, pushing calls for stronger national security.
Elon Musk’s blunt talk about Tesla shook investors and sparked questions about tech rules and market oversight. All these events show why border control, law enforcement funding, foreign threats, and economic stability stay top priorities for conservatives across America and Europe.
GLOBAL MARKET Panic: US Sanctions on China Trigger Shockwaves
— Stock markets around the world took a nosedive after the US slapped new sanctions on China’s tech industry. The Biden administration claims China has been stealing American ideas and playing unfair in trade.
Some experts warn these tough measures could start a bigger trade war, hurting supply chains and slowing down the world economy. Asian markets, especially in Japan and South Korea, dropped fast as worries spread about what comes next.
Investors are being told to pay close attention as leaders rush to emergency meetings to figure out their next move. This story is still unfolding and could hit businesses everywhere hard.
US CREDIT DOWNGRADE Shock: Debt Nightmare Hits Americans Hard
— The United States just lost its top credit rating on May 20, 2025. Sky-high debt and out-of-control government spending caused the downgrade. Now, many fear higher borrowing costs and a weaker economy. Investors are rushing to gold as markets swing wildly.
Experts warn families could soon feel more financial pain. “This is a wake-up call for Washington,” said one analyst, blaming reckless spending and political gridlock. The downgrade has fired up debate about federal budgets.
Pictures of dollar bills with red arrows show how this crisis hits regular Americans. More people now demand urgent action to fix government spending.
Many see this as one of the biggest economic shocks in years. Conservatives say it’s time for real accountability in Washington before things get even worse.
FAA OUTAGE Chaos: Frustrated Travelers Demand Action as Flight Delays Soar
— Another radio outage hit Philadelphia’s air traffic control tower this week. It only lasted two seconds, but it still caused delays and headaches for travelers. This is just the latest problem for the Philadelphia Terminal Radar Approach Control area, which has had several outages since April — even after upgrades.
At Philadelphia International Airport, passengers waited an average of 23 minutes longer than usual. Newark Airport was also hit hard. About 80 flights were canceled by early morning, and some travelers faced delays of up to two hours.
These problems aren’t new. The nation’s airports have been dealing with radar failures and not enough air traffic controllers for months.
Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy said the Trump administration will cut back flights in and out of Newark temporarily to help clear up congestion. They’re also pushing a plan to overhaul our outdated air traffic system with six new centers and better technology in the coming years.

GLOBAL MARKETS Panic: Trade WAR and Middle East Chaos Spark Investor Fears
— Global markets are in turmoil as trade fights and Middle East unrest shake investors. Wall Street stocks are still close to record highs, but the U.S. dollar has sunk to its lowest level since 2025. Inflation is calm for now, but experts warn that tariffs could push prices up if talks with China fail.
European stocks have dropped for four days straight as hopes fade for a quick fix to trade issues with the U.S. President Trump’s move to pull some American troops from the Middle East after Iran’s actions has added more worry for investors everywhere.
Asian markets aren’t spared either. India’s Sensex and Nifty indexes both fell about 1%. Higher oil prices and fears of foreign money leaving are causing big sell-offs in many emerging countries.
Most traders think the Federal Reserve will keep interest rates steady at its next meeting, though some believe cuts could happen if things get worse. One analyst summed it up: “If trouble grows, markets will panic — and that could affect everything from oil costs to interest rates.”
