VIDEO| Biden Celebrates His Last White House Holiday Season with Turkey Pardons, Tree Lighting
President Joe Biden kicked off his final holiday season in the White House with a mix of cherished traditions and heartfelt moments.
In a festive South Lawn ceremony, he pardoned two turkeys, Peach and Blossom, as part of the Thanksgiving tradition, sharing stories about resilience and gratitude.
The festivities didnât end there, as the president also lit the National Christmas Tree, officially marking the start of the holiday season.
Trump reportedly plans to send undocumented migrantsâincluding Ukrainian war refugeesâto Guantanamo Bay, a military facility infamous for holding terror suspects. The Biden-era program that offered sanctuary to Ukrainians fleeing war may be rolled back, with deportation or detention now on the table. Medical screenings for 9,000 detainees are underway ahead of transfers to Cuba. The move is part of Trump's broader immigration crackdownâtargeting 3,000 arrests a dayâand could revoke protections for 240,000 Ukrainians. The use of Guantanamo has sparked outrage due to its controversial history and lack of foreign government notification.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky revealed in a TV interview that the Trump administration diverted 20,000 anti-drone missiles, originally approved under Biden, away from Ukraine to the Middle East. Zelensky said Ukraine relied on these precision-guided weapons to counter Shaheed drone strikes, including a record 472 drones on June 1. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth cited urgency but skipped a major Ukraine meeting. Trump later resumed aid after Kyiv agreed to a ceasefire, sparking backlash over his stance to âlet the war continue.â

The UNâs top human rights official, Volker TĂŒrk, has strongly condemned U.S. sanctions on four ICC judges as âdeeply corrosiveâ to international justice. These judges, who ruled on cases involving alleged war crimes by U.S. forces in Afghanistan and arrest warrants against Israeli leaders, now face sanctions from the Biden administration. TĂŒrk warned that targeting international judges for executing their duties endangers the rule of law. The EU has backed the ICC, vowing to counter these sanctions and defend the courtâs independence from political pressure.

Joe Biden has broken his silence following Donald Trump's renewed criticism over his use of an autopen to sign executive orders. During a recent Oval Office ceremony, Trump mocked Biden, questioning the legality of using the signature machine. Now, House Republicans are planning a formal investigation. In a sharp rebuttal, Biden dismissed the allegations, stating, âI made the decisions about pardons, executive orders, legislation. Any suggestion that I didnât is ridiculous and false.â The controversy revives questions about presidential protocol and Trumpâs persistent attacks on his predecessor.

During a fiery White House press briefing, Fox News correspondent Alexandria Hoff pressed Trump Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt with a provocative question: âDoes the president see himself as a king?â Hoff was referencing the upcoming âNo Kings Dayâ protest planned for Trumpâs birthday military parade, aimed at criticizing ICE raids and authoritarian optics. Leavitt, unfazed, dismissed the premise as âabsurdâ and reaffirmed Trumpâs respect for the Constitution. She also slammed Democrats for politicizing American symbols and defended the parade as a âcelebration of freedom, not royalty.â
