U.S. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth has declared war on the Pentagon’s top brass.
In a bold move, he’s slashing the ranks of senior military officials, with 4-star generals now facing the axe.
As President Trump’s second term kicks off, Hegseth is reshaping the Department of Defense with a brutal overhaul that could forever change the future of the U.S. military.
Watch as Hegseth’s purge sends shockwaves through the Pentagon, sparking fierce debate over military leadership and the path forward.
In a fiery Pentagon briefing, U.S. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth lashed out at the media, accusing them of "cheering against Trump" and downplaying the success of Operation Midnight Hammer — a bold series of U.S. airstrikes targeting Iran's nuclear sites. Hegseth defended the mission’s results, slammed leaks of low-confidence intelligence reports, and praised the courage of American pilots and defense crews. With tensions high and politics in play, the Secretary warned that biased reporting could overshadow what he called a “historic” blow to Iran’s nuclear ambitions.

European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen reminded Donald Trump that the EU remains open for a trade deal—but the U.S. President made it clear: China and India come first. Speaking after sealing deals with Beijing and hinting at a "very big" one with India, Trump gave no indication of engaging with Europe anytime soon. The EU, once a top U.S. economic partner, is now seemingly sidelined as Washington pivots eastward. The diplomatic slight leaves Brussels waiting in line—behind two of the world’s biggest emerging powerhouses.

U.S. President Donald Trump has accused Democrats of leaking classified intel about U.S. airstrikes on Iranian nuclear sites, branding it a “perfect flight” betrayal. He demanded prosecution, despite the FBI finding no direct evidence implicating any political party. The leak revealed that Iran’s nuclear capacity was only delayed by months, contradicting Trump’s claims of a full strike success. While Trump lashes out, the White House urges caution, and intelligence agencies brace for more fallout. Lawmakers are set for briefings, as political tensions rise over national security leaks.

U.S President Trump's border czar Tom Homan launched a fiery appeal on June 26, 2025, demanding Congress stop the delays and pass the “One Big Beautiful Bill” — a sweeping legislation that combines tax cuts, expanded child credits, and major new funding for border security. Homan slammed lawmakers for playing politics with national security, calling the bill a “nonpartisan no-brainer.” As the Senate prepares for a critical vote, tensions are rising in Washington. Will this high-stakes gamble pay off for Trump?

U.S President Donald Trump is turning up the heat on Senate Republicans to pass his signature tax-and-spending package — dubbed the “Big, Beautiful Bill” — before the July 4 deadline. The legislation includes sweeping tax cuts, boosts to border security, and expanded child tax credits. But it also slashes Medicaid and food stamp funding, raising fierce opposition from Democrats who call it a “Big, Ugly Betrayal.”
With a $4.2 trillion projected impact on the national deficit, a blocked Medicaid tax provision, and wavering GOP senators, the bill’s future hangs in the balance. Can Trump rally the votes in time, or is this another legislative collapse in the making?

The Pentagon revealed that every weapon deployed in the recent U.S. strike on Iran had a pre-assigned target — and none missed. Officials emphasized the unprecedented precision of the operation, which focused on Iran’s nuclear infrastructure and command hubs. The statement underscores the effectiveness of American airpower, particularly the deployment of GBU-57 bunker busters, and suggests a major degradation of Iran’s strategic capabilities.

US Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth has described America’s widely perceived failure against Yemen’s Houthis as a “tailored operation,” claiming the goal was freedom of navigation and not the protection of Israeli-linked vessels. Notably, Hegseth made no mention of Israel during his statement. Critics argue the Pentagon has rebranded a humiliating military result, after months of failed deterrence against Houthi strikes in the Red Sea. The Pentagon's shifting rhetoric has sparked fresh debate over U.S. credibility, especially in light of its deep alliance with Israel.

U.S. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth issued a dramatic warning of potential war with China, yet claimed the U.S. seeks no conflict. In a speech filled with paradoxes and Pentagon code, Hegseth promised “peace through strength — seen and unseen, overt and covert.” He emphasized that the U.S. will not humiliate or subjugate China but is fully prepared for confrontation. The remarks deepen concerns over rising tensions in the Indo-Pacific, suggesting a looming power struggle between Washington and Beijing conducted in part through shadowy, undisclosed means.

At the Shangri-La Dialogue, U.S. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth declared that China would not dare invade Taiwan while Donald Trump remains in office, warning that Beijing poses a real and possibly imminent threat. Hegseth urged Asian allies to increase defense spending and prepare for a potential regional conflict. He affirmed Trump’s Indo-Pacific focus and emphasized consequences for any Chinese aggression. With China skipping the summit, Hegseth’s comments take on sharper geopolitical meaning, signaling America’s hard stance and strategic pivot toward Asia’s growing security challenges.

Trump is at the center of a political and legal storm after confirming plans to temporarily use a $400 million Boeing 747-8 — dubbed the “Flying Palace” — reportedly offered by Qatar’s royal family. Trump claims the ultra-luxurious jet is a “gift, free of charge” to the U.S. government while the new Air Force One fleet faces delays. However, Qatari officials deny it’s a personal gift to Trump and say the deal remains under review with the U.S. Department of Defense. Critics, including top Democrats, warn the arrangement may breach the Constitution’s Emoluments Clause and raise national security concerns over foreign influence.
