President Donald Trump has officially brought back the original Presidential Fitness Test for American public schools. The test, which includes pull-ups, push-ups, a one-mile run, a shuttle run, and flexibility drills, was discontinued in 2012 by President Obama in favor of a less intense health-focused program. Now, over a decade later, Trump says it's time to "make America fit again" — but not everyone agrees. Is this a return to discipline — or outdated physical pressure for kids?

US Sends War Warning to China: Pentagon Honours Marcos as Philippines Vows to Defend South China Sea

Tensions in the South China Sea are escalating as the United States reaffirms its military alliance with the Philippines.

The US vowed to defend Philippine forces and assets in the Pacific, directly warning China against continued aggression in disputed waters. Marcos’ upcoming meeting with U.S President Donald Trump is expected to further solidify the alliance, with defense cooperation and tariffs on the agenda. #SouthChinaSea #USPhilippinesAlliance #Marcos #ChinaWarning #PentagonVisit #MutualDefenseTreaty #IndoPacific #USChinaTensions #MarcosTrump #Geopolitics #WestPhilippineSea #ChinaAggression #DefenseNews Also Read China's Sonar Shocker: The 20km Sub-Spotter That Could Sink Naval Strategies :: https://www.oneindia.com/feature/chinas-sonar-shocker-the-20km-sub-spotter-that-could-sink-naval-strategies-3940843.html?ref=DMDesc China’s PLA Warns: 'We’ll Crush Foreign Encroachment' In South China Sea :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/china-s-pla-warns-we-ll-crush-foreign-encroachment-in-south-china-sea-011-3932325.html?ref=DMDesc WATCH Video | Standoff At South China Sea: Chinese Coast Guard Attacks Philippine Navy Boats :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/watch-video-standoff-at-south-china-sea-chinese-coast-guard-attacks-philippine-navy-boats-3857477.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.318~GR.122~

Hegseth’s Pentagon CRISIS: Sixth Senior Official QUITS Under Hegseth’s Lead| Fired Or Silenced? [Video]

Hegseth’s Pentagon CRISIS: Sixth Senior Official QUITS Under Hegseth’s Lead| Fired Or Silenced?

The Pentagon is facing yet another high-profile departure as Justin Fulcher, a senior advisor to Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, is set to step down after only six months on the job. Fulcher is now the sixth senior official to leave the department since Hegseth's controversial appointment, raising serious questions about the stability and leadership within one of the world's most powerful military institutions. The news, first reported by CBS News as a firing, was quickly disputed by the Pentagon, with spokesman Sean Parnell calling the claim "false" and unfair to Fulcher. This wave of resignations comes amid a turbulent tenure for Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth. He has been at the center of multiple scandals, most notably a major security breach involving a Signal chat group discussing sensitive military operations, such as strikes in Yemen. In an unprecedented move, Hegseth reportedly added an editor from The Atlantic to this top-secret chat, a scandal that sent shockwaves through the defense community. Justin Fulcher himself was no stranger to conflict within the Pentagon's walls. He reportedly stormed out of a heated meeting with the Pentagon's DOGE team in April and later claimed the Pentagon Force Protection Agency was actively searching for him. This incident allegedly infuriated Hegseth, who then personally confronted DOGE team lead Yinon Weiss for targeting his advisor. Despite the drama, Fulcher's departure statement was diplomatic, calling his time working with the Pentagon's personnel "incredibly inspiring." This video breaks down the full story behind the chaos at the Pentagon. #PeteHegseth #Pentagon #USPolitics #BreakingNews #USNews #JustinFulcher #WorldNews #LatestNews #OneindiaNews #AmericanPolitics Also Read Suicides in US Military Increased in 2023, Highlighting Ongoing Mental Health Challenges :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/suicides-in-us-military-increased-in-2023-011-3987665.html?ref=DMDesc Ex-Pentagon Spy Claims Proof Of Alien Life: US Govt In Possession Of 'Bodies, Vehicles Of Unknown Origin' :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/ex-pentagon-spy-claims-proof-of-alien-life-ug-govt-has-bodies-vehicles-of-unknown-origin-3916083.html?ref=DMDesc Lawmakers Press Pentagon to Ensure Military Stays Out of Election Politics :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/lawmakers-urge-pentagon-to-keep-military-apart-from-politics-011-3908607.html?ref=DMDesc ~ED.102~HT.408~

Hegseth RIPS Microsoft for Betrayal |Chinese Working on U.S Defense Systems, Microsoft Admits Breach

Pentagon chief Pete Hegseth confirmed that the Defense Department’s cloud services were previously supported by China-based engineers, raising national security concerns. Microsoft admitted to using teams in China for technical assistance but assured that no China-based staff will be involved moving forward. ProPublica revealed that limited U.S. oversight left critical Pentagon systems vulnerable, with personnel lacking the expertise to manage them effectively. Amid growing tensions with Beijing, Microsoft has pledged stricter controls to secure DoD cloud services against potential foreign risks. #Pentagon #Microsoft #China #CyberSecurity #Defense #NationalSecurity #DoD #CloudServices #TechNews #DataSecurity #MilitaryTech #PeteHegseth #FrankShaw #ProPublica #USChinaTensions #SecurityBreach #CyberThreats #DefenseCloud #MilitaryCloud #MicrosoftChina #TechControversy #USGovernment #CloudComputing #SupplyChainSecurity #Outsourcing #CyberRisk #WashingtonDC #ChinaUS #PentagonNews #MicrosoftUpdate #BreakingNews Also Read Microsoft Introduces BioEmu, An Innovative AI System To Enhance Drug Discovery :: https://www.oneindia.com/artificial-intelligence/microsoft-introduces-bioemu-an-innovative-ai-system-to-enhance-drug-discovery-011-7798013.html?ref=DMDesc Microsoft Layoffs: Thousands Affected In Global Job Cuts :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/microsoft-layoffs-thousands-affected-in-global-job-cuts-011-7789559.html?ref=DMDesc Xbox Division in the Firing Line as Microsoft Plans Fourth Layoff in 18 Months :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/xbox-division-in-the-firing-line-as-microsoft-plans-fourth-layoff-in-18-months-011-7783751.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.410~

U.S SHOCKS Russia As Trump Approves $300 Million Weapons To Ukraine | Patriot Missiles | Ukraine War [Video]

U.S SHOCKS Russia As Trump Approves $300 Million Weapons To Ukraine | Patriot Missiles | Ukraine War

In a major shift, U.S. President Donald Trump has approved a fresh $300 million military aid package to Ukraine, reportedly including rare Patriot surface-to-air missiles and medium-range rockets. The decision follows a brief and controversial Pentagon pause ordered by Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, a known skeptic of increased aid to Kiev. Trump’s move marks the first use of his Presidential Drawdown Authority, allowing emergency arms transfers directly from U.S. stockpiles. While the Pentagon claimed the pause was a limited stockpile review, it had caused concern among European allies and Ukrainian officials. Secretary of State Marco Rubio later clarified that most weapons shipments were never stopped. Trump, who has reopened ceasefire talks with Russia, acknowledged the high cost of Patriot systems but said Ukraine still needs them. The Kremlin has warned the continued weapons flow contradicts peace efforts and further complicates diplomacy. #TrumpUkraineAid #PatriotMissiles #UkraineWeapons #TrumpVsPentagon #KremlinWarning #MarcoRubio #PresidentialDrawdown #UkraineWar #USMilitaryAid #PentagonPause #UkraineCrisis #TrumpRussiaTalks #PutinOnUSAid #UkraineConflict #CeasefireEfforts #NATOTensions #RussiaUkraine #USArmsShipment #HighCostWeapons #UkraineMissileDefense ~HT.410~ED.102~GR.125~

Russia RAGES As Trump RESUMES Weapons To Ukraine After Shocking Pentagon Pause | VIDEO

In a dramatic turnaround, the Trump administration has resumed shipping weapons to Ukraine after a brief but controversial pause ordered by Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth. The move had caught even White House officials off guard and temporarily halted deliveries of key systems including Patriot missiles, GMLRS rockets, and 155 mm Howitzer rounds. Trump claimed no knowledge of the pause, stating he hadn’t given the order. Pentagon officials say the review was part of a broader stockpile assessment. But amid growing pressure from both allies and U.S. lawmakers, shipments resumed quietly—now including precision-guided rockets and artillery shells. Trump cited Russia’s rising brutality and President Putin’s conduct as reasons for restoring deliveries. The weapons—especially the 155 mm rounds—are critical in Ukraine’s defense. With the largest drone attack yet launched by Russia, Trump’s decision underscores the escalating urgency of the war. Over $67 billion in U.S. military aid has been sent since 2022. #TrumpUkraineAid #UkraineWar #WeaponsToUkraine #PentagonPause #PatriotMissiles #GMLRS #TrumpHegseth #UkraineRussiaWar #MilitaryAid #UkraineDefense #TrumpVsPentagon #ArtilleryToUkraine #HowitzerRounds #PutinWarCrimes #WhiteHouseConflict #UkraineCrisis #USUkraineSupport #PrecisionWeapons #AbruptPolicyShift #TrumpReversesPause ~GR.125~HT.408~ED.346~
