Trump Administration Cuts Energy Projects, Freezes NY Funds

The Trump administration has canceled billions in clean energy projects and frozen funding for major New York infrastructure, escalating a political battle over the ongoing US government shutdown. The Department of Energy announced the termination of 223 clean energy projects, claiming a savings of $7.56 billion for taxpayers. Officials stated the projects did not advance US energy needs or provide a good return on investment. Russell Vought, head of the Office of Management and Budget, labeled the canceled funding as "Green New Scam" money on social media. The affected projects are in 16 states, including Democratic strongholds like California and New York. California Governor Gavin Newsom said the move cancels up to $1.2 billion for a hydrogen project and threatens thousands of jobs. Separately, the Department of Transportation froze nearly $18 billion for two major New York projects: the Second […]

US Postpones New Tariffs on Imported Pharmaceuticals

The United States has delayed the implementation of new, steep tariffs on imported pharmaceuticals that were scheduled to take effect on October 1st. The Trump administration had previously announced a 100% tariff on imported branded and patented medicines to pressure drug companies to move their production to the U.S. or lower prices. However, government sources confirmed the measure has been postponed for now. A senior U.S. official stated that instead of the broad tariffs, the administration will now focus on preparing tariffs that specifically target individual pharmaceutical companies which refuse to relocate production to the U.S. or reduce their drug prices. No specific reason was given for the delay. In a related development, officials clarified that the European Union would be exempt from any new pharmaceutical tariffs. Imports from the EU will continue to face the existing 15% tariff rate.

EU Leaders Meet in Copenhagen Amid Russian Drone Threats

EU leaders have gathered in Copenhagen under growing pressure to strengthen European defence following a series of Russian airspace incursions and drone disruptions at Danish airports. Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen said Europe faces a direct threat. “From a European perspective there is only one country willing to threaten us and that is Russia, and therefore we need a very strong answer back,” she told reporters. Countries on the EU’s eastern flank, including Poland and Estonia, have been most affected by the incursions. Several member states now back plans for a multi-layered “drone wall” designed to detect, track, and neutralize Russian drones. Security around the summit has been tightened. Civilian drone flights are banned until Friday, and strict traffic restrictions are in place across Copenhagen. The city is also hosting a broader European Political Community summit, with international allies providing […]

US Government Shutdown 2025: Travel, Workers, and Services Affected

The US federal government has officially shut down after Republican and Democratic lawmakers failed to resolve a budget impasse, halting operations and causing widespread disruption across the country. The deadlock, which affects funding through October and beyond, has put about 40% of federal workers – nearly 750,000 employees – on unpaid leave, raising concerns about its economic and social impact. Air travel is one of the most affected sectors. While air traffic controllers and Transportation Security Administration (TSA) staff are considered “essential” and will continue working, they will not be paid until the shutdown ends. During the last major shutdown in 2018–2019, unpaid workers increasingly called in sick, leading to significant delays at airports. Americans planning overseas trips could also face delays, as passport agencies have warned of slower processing times. Federal employees, especially those not deemed essential, will face […]

US Embassy Assures Nigerians: Visa and Passport Services Will Continue Despite Shutdown

The United States Embassy in Nigeria has assured Nigerians that visa and passport services remain unaffected by the ongoing partial shutdown of the U.S. government. In a statement posted on its official X (formerly Twitter) account on Wednesday, the embassy said: “Due to the lapse in appropriations, this X account will not be updated regularly until full operations resume, with the exception of urgent safety and security information. At this time, scheduled passport and visa services in the United States and at U.S. Embassies and Consulates overseas will continue during the lapse in appropriations as the situation permits.” The embassy clarified that while consular services will proceed as scheduled, its social media updates will be limited to urgent safety and security advisories until a funding deal is reached in Washington. The announcement comes as students, business travelers, and families in […]

US Government Shuts Down After Budget Talks Collapse Between Trump, Congress

The US government officially shut down early Wednesday after President Donald Trump and Congress failed to reach a deal on federal funding, triggering widespread disruptions that will affect hundreds of thousands of workers and millions of Americans who rely on public services. The shutdown began at 12:01 am (0401 GMT) following the Senate’s rejection of a short-term funding measure already passed by the House of Representatives. At the heart of the deadlock are Democratic demands for increased health care funding, particularly for the Affordable Care Act (Obamacare), which the Trump administration has moved to dismantle. Trump Blames Democrats Trump placed the blame squarely on his opponents, threatening further cuts aimed at progressive priorities. “So we’d be laying off a lot of people that are going to be very affected. And they’re Democrats, they’re going to be Democrats,” Trump said from […]

Harvard to Run ‘Trade Schools’ Under $500m Settlement, Trump Says

President Donald Trump announced Tuesday that his administration is nearing a $500 million settlement with Harvard University, under which the Ivy League school would be required to operate trade schools across the United States. Speaking at the White House, Trump framed the move as both a financial penalty and a workforce development strategy. “They’d be paying about $500 million and they’ll be operating trade schools,” Trump said. “They’re going to be teaching people how to do AI and lots of other things — engines, lots of things. It’s a big investment in trade school done by very smart people, and then their sins are forgiven.” Harvard has not yet responded to Trump’s remarks. The proposal is the latest development in Trump’s unprecedented pressure campaign on elite universities, particularly Harvard, which the administration has accused of failing to protect Jewish students […]

US Judge Blocks Trump Administration’s Plan to Lay Off 500 VOA Employees

A US federal judge has temporarily halted the Trump administration’s plan to lay off more than 500 employees of Voice of America (VOA), following legal challenges over the move’s legality. The ruling, issued Monday by US District Judge Royce Lamberth, suspended the layoffs that were set to take effect on September 30, 2025. The terminations were spearheaded by Kari Lake, senior advisor to the US Agency for Global Media (USAGM), who described the cuts as a “long-overdue effort to dismantle a bloated, unaccountable bureaucracy.” However, Judge Lamberth said the Reduction in Force plan was “arbitrary and capricious and not in accordance with law,” pointing out that the defendants failed to comply with an earlier injunction issued in April. “The Court no longer harbors any doubt that defendants lack a plan to comply with the preliminary injunction, and instead have been […]

Trump Targets More Opponents After ‘Dirty Cop’ Comey Indictment

US President Donald Trump on Friday called for more of his political rivals to face prosecution as he celebrated the indictment of former FBI director James Comey, whom he branded a “dirty cop.” The Republican leader’s remarks mark an intensification of his campaign of political retribution — an approach that breaks with decades of US precedent, where presidents avoided interfering with Justice Department cases. “Frankly I hope there are others,” Trump told reporters at the White House when asked about Comey’s indictment, describing his opponents as “corrupt, radical-left Democrats.” He rejected suggestions that his drive was fueled by vengeance. “It’s not revenge. It’s about the fact that you can’t let this go on.” Comey was charged Thursday with making false statements and obstruction of justice linked to his handling of the FBI’s 2016 probe into alleged collusion between Trump’s campaign […]

Trump: I won’t allow Israel to annex West Bank

US President Donald Trump said on Thursday that he would not permit Israel to annex the West Bank, pushing back against threats from Israeli cabinet members to block the possibility of a two-state solution. “I will not allow Israel to annex the West Bank,” Trump told reporters in the Oval Office. “No, I will not allow it. It’s not going to happen.” The president’s remarks followed questions on whether he had given such assurances to Arab leaders during meetings at the United Nations this week. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has repeatedly opposed the creation of a Palestinian state, while far-right members of his cabinet have suggested annexing the West Bank in response to recent moves by Western nations to formally recognize Palestine. When asked if he had warned Netanyahu directly, Trump replied:“Yeah, but I’m not going to allow it. […]
