Trump Heads to the Middle East: Trillions in Deals, Controversy in the Skies – President Trump begins his foreign trip with stops in Saudi Arabia, the UAE, and Qatar. Topics range from $1T in U.S. investments and Saudi nuclear energy to advanced AI chips and Middle East peace talks. Controversy erupts over Qatar's offer to gift Trump a $400M Boeing 747, possibly violating the Constitution's Emoluments Clause.
Gaza Governance and a Possible Hostage Release – Rumors swirl that Trump may announce a U.S.-led interim government for Gaza. Meanwhile, Hamas is expected to release the last American hostage in Gaza this week, with unknown concessions.
Prescription Drug Reform Is the Big Announcement – Trump officially unveils a plan to slash U.S. drug prices by tying Medicare reimbursements to international price levels, potentially cutting costs by 80%. But lawsuits and bipartisan resistance could derail the move unless legislation passes.
U.S. and China Reach Tentative Trade Reset – Talks in Switzerland yield "substantial progress," according to Treasury Secretary Bessent. Trump proposes a new 10% baseline tariff but demands strict enforcement to curb Chinese cheating, fentanyl trafficking, and cyber intrusions.
Universities Under Scrutiny for Foreign Cash – Trump's DOE launches a probe into the University of Pennsylvania for failing to disclose foreign donations. Over $30B in foreign funds poured into U.S. universities during the Biden years, with China, Saudi Arabia, and Germany topping the list.
ICE Facility Brawl Leads to Possible Arrests of House Democrats – Two congresswomen could face charges after physically assaulting officers at a Newark ICE detention center. The incident, caught on video, also boosts the political profile of Newark's mayor, who was arrested during the scuffle.
