Trump-Putin's 2-Hour Call Had No Mention of Ukraine Aid? Trump Denies Putin Demanded Aid Freeze
Trump-Putin's 2-Hour Call Had No Mention of Ukraine Aid?
In a high-stakes two-hour phone call between Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin, the U.S. and Russian leaders discussed a range of issues, but Trump insists Ukraine aid was never brought up.
Despite the Kremlin later demanding an end to foreign military aid to Ukraine as a condition for a ceasefire, Trump told Fox News that Putin never personally raised the issue during their conversation.
The call, which took place on March 18, saw Putin agree to a 30-day pause on attacks on Ukraine’s energy infrastructure but reject the broader U.S.-proposed ceasefire.
Trump described the discussion as "a great call", focusing instead on trade, U.S.-Russia relations, and rare earth minerals.
Putin and Belarusian leader Alexander Lukashenko launched a scathing attack on Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, dismissing Ukraine’s recent anti-corruption drive as a “publicity stunt.” The leaders accused Zelensky of using scandals to distract from battlefield setbacks and declining Western support. With tensions escalating across the eastern front, the Putin-Lukashenko alliance is sending a strong signal to Kyiv and NATO.

With Oreshnik’s deployment and increasing momentum for Russian forces, Putin hinted at a major breakthrough in the ongoing Special Military Operation (SMO).

In a jaw-dropping move, U.S. President Donald Trump confirmed the deployment of two nuclear submarines following alarming threats from ex-Russian President Dmitry Medvedev. The sudden military maneuver has raised global eyebrows, triggering fears of escalating tensions between two nuclear powers.
Medvedev, known for his provocative rhetoric, reportedly issued a statement deemed “inappropriate” and “dangerous” by U.S. defense officials. Trump responded with decisive action, stating that the repositioning of nuclear submarines was "on the basis of safety for our people." With Russian-American relations on the edge and nuclear capabilities at play, experts warn of a dangerous new chapter in the already strained geopolitical arena. Trump’s bold decision signals a return to Cold War-era brinkmanship, with nuclear readiness once again at the center of world affairs. What exactly did Medvedev say—and what could come next?

In a harrowing visit to Gaza’s so-called “Valley of Death,” Trump’s envoy Steve Witkoff walked the frontline near an aid distribution zone where nearly 900 civilians have reportedly been killed in recent IDF operations. Joined by international officials and aid workers, Witkoff witnessed first-hand the devastation wrought by shelling in proximity to humanitarian corridors.

President Donald Trump has admitted that new U.S. sanctions on Russia might not have any effect on Vladimir Putin — but is moving ahead with them anyway. Trump slashed the peace window for a Ukraine deal from 50 days to just 10, warning of brutal economic penalties if Moscow doesn't comply. These include up to 100% tariffs and potential secondary sanctions on countries doing business with Russia.
While Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov downplayed the threats, saying Russia has developed “sanctions immunity,” Trump’s frustration is mounting. The president also announced that special envoy Steve Witkoff will soon travel to Russia following visits to Israel and Gaza. Trump’s acting UN envoy confirmed a ceasefire deadline: August 8. Despite over 10,000 sanctions already in place since the 2014 Ukraine crisis, Putin maintains the West has failed to break Russia’s economy. The standoff is reaching a boiling point.

Donald Trump’s approval ratings have hit a second-term low across major polls. Reuters/Ipsos shows just 40% support, while Gallup reports 37%. Even traditionally favorable outlets like Fox News show net disapproval. Swing states such as Florida, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin report negative ratings, with Trump underwater in 13 of 31 states he won in 2024. Key issues include dissatisfaction over his tariff policies and handling of the Epstein case. Voters give him mixed marks on the economy and immigration.

FOX Nation is moving forward with streaming Hulk Hogan's wrestling series despite his sudden death ... TMZ has learned. Sources familiar with the situation tell.. TMZ.com
President Donald Trump has publicly backed Tulsi Gabbard after she declassified explosive findings that claim top Obama-era officials conspired to delegitimize Trump’s 2016 election victory. Gabbard, now serving as Director of National Intelligence, revealed “overwhelming evidence” that senior figures—including Obama, Brennan, and Clapper—used false intelligence to initiate the Trump–Russia collusion narrative.
She labeled the alleged actions as a "treasonous conspiracy" designed to subvert the will of American voters. Trump praised Fox News and Gabbard on Truth Social, calling the report a bombshell. Gabbard is submitting all materials to the DOJ for criminal investigation. The report also casts doubt on the Steele Dossier and claims internal memos disproved cyber tampering allegations before they were altered to implicate Russia. The revelations could reignite political tensions ahead of the 2024 elections as Republicans push for legal action.

Pam Bondi is facing intense backlash from MAGA loyalists following the DOJ and FBI’s conclusion that there is no “Epstein client list.” The admission contradicts Bondi’s claim that such a list existed and was “on her desk,” a statement she made on Fox News in February. MAGA influencers like Laura Loomer, Liz Wheeler, and Megyn Kelly have publicly criticized Bondi, accusing her of either ignorance or laziness.
Sources say FBI Deputy Director Dan Bongino is considering resigning after a heated dispute with Bondi, while FBI Chief Kash Patel may follow suit. Internal friction has escalated into a full-blown crisis, with calls for Bondi’s resignation intensifying across conservative media. This debacle comes amid renewed scrutiny over Epstein documents and rising frustration that key files remain unreleased. The fallout could result in a major shakeup within the DOJ and Trump-aligned circles, with Bondi at the center of the storm.

President Donald Trump lashed out at reporters during a Cabinet meeting on Tuesday, dismissing questions about the controversial Jeffrey Epstein case as a "desecration." This explosive reaction came just one day after the Justice Department, led by Trump's own Attorney General Pam Bondi, released a memo stating there was no evidence of an Epstein "client list" or that the disgraced financier was Murdered. Trump attempted to pivot the conversation to the tragic flooding in Texas, questioning why the media was still focused on "this creep" Epstein during a time of national crisis.
The situation has ignited a fierce backlash within the MAGA movement. For years, Trump's most fervent supporters and allies have propagated theories about a secret "client list" that could incriminate powerful figures. Attorney General Pam Bondi, once a champion of these theories who claimed in a February Fox News interview that the list was "on my desk to review," is now facing intense criticism. Her department's memo directly contradicts the narrative she previously appeared to support.
