Fox News: Here's the argument Trump hopes will net first major SCOTUS win in second term
The Trump administration is appealing to the Supreme Court, arguing that lower courts are overstepping by blocking the president's ability to fire federal employees, specifically targeting the case of Hampton Dellinger, head of the Special Counsel Office. Experts suggest the Supreme Court may favor Trump's stance, citing a dissenting opinion from Trump-appointed Judge Greg Katsas.
The DOJ contends that the judicial actions represent an unprecedented challenge to executive power and the separation of powers. The appeal emphasizes the president's authority to remove agency heads without court interference, labeling the lower court's decisions as judicial overreach.

The Telegraph: Von der Leyen’s hopeless leadership has driven Europe into irrelevance
Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin have sidelined Europe in Ukrainian peace talks, reflecting Europe's geopolitical irrelevance. This situation is exemplified by Ursula von der Leyen, the European Commission president, whose lackluster political career and failed defense ministry record highlight Europe's diminished influence.
Her inability to secure support from Angela Merkel for the chancellorship further underscores the continent's struggles in global affairs. The perception of European leadership as ineffective contributes to its exclusion from significant negotiations.
Le Monde: Why did Ukraine reject Trump's mineral resources plan?
President Trump proposed a controversial agreement to Ukraine, suggesting that the country offset U.S. aid at high interest rates. The deal reportedly grants the U.S. extensive rights to Ukraine's natural resources and infrastructure, governed by New York law.

Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent emphasized a "win-win" partnership between the U.S. and Ukraine, focusing on access to Ukraine's rare earth minerals. Following discussions with President Zelenskyy, Bessent proposed U.S. ownership of 50% of these resources, which Zelenskyy declined, citing insufficient security guarantees.
Bessent believes that a long-term agreement would enhance security for Ukraine and strengthen U.S. interests in the region. He noted that the ongoing conflict with Russia necessitates a strong economic partnership, which could deter further aggression once hostilities cease.
