President Trump is not afraid to get in the middle of a fight, and that doesn’t just apply to the Middle East. The president sat down with YouTuber, boxer, and perhaps future politician Jake Paul at a rally this week in Kentucky, where the two discussed a variety of topics, including the president’s personal past with fighting.

A few artists protested more than just the Trump administration’s immigration policies on Hollywood’s biggest night. The presence of “BE GOOD” and “ICE OUT” pins at the Academy Awards paled in comparison to last month’s Grammys.

He wore a patch reading “No a la Guerra,” the same…

Ursula von der Leyen suddenly says the EU can no longer count on the old reliable unwritten rules for me, but not for thee When European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen had to come up with a speech for EU ambassadors, she tried on a punk rock routine similar to the one that scored former central banker and current Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney a standing ovation at Davos. But one key difference made it a tone-deaf flop: she forgot to bring her mirror.Carney’s critical point was a confession – that it’s the people running Western democracy who are the problem.…
Reopening the Strait of Hormuz is critical to prevent an economic catastrophe, but the UK government isn’t sending warships yet because the Prime Minister has reservations about the lack of a legal basis for action, a “credible” plan, and the endorsement of the international community, he has said. British Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer addressed the nation on Monday morning to give an update on his position on the conflict in the Middle East, after two weeks of military strikes by the United States and Israel against Iran and its proxies in the region. Trying to flaunt both his own…
