Fox News: Trump approval rating hits 47%, as American name his most significant move so far: poll
President Trump's approval rating stands at 47%, according to a recent CNN poll, marking the highest level since his first term. The poll indicates that 28% of Americans view his border security efforts as his most significant achievement, while many believe he needs to do more on everyday prices.

The Telegraph: The UK is largely defenceless against Russian missiles and drones
The Telegraph is featuring essays on the inadequacies of Britain's armed forces, focusing on Integrated Air and Missile Defence (IAMD) as a critical capability amid global threats. Despite having the fifth-largest defense budget, the UK's IAMD readiness is lacking against evolving missile and drone threats.
Current capabilities include Quick Reaction Alert jets and the F-35B, but reliance on ground-based radars limits detection of low-flying threats. The RAF's upcoming E-7 Wedgetail aims to enhance early warning, yet challenges remain in effectively countering potential attacks.

The Federalist: For America's 250th Celebration, Bring Back The Freedom Train
Planning for the 250th anniversary of American independence in 2026 is lagging compared to the Bicentennial in 1976, largely due to recent cultural shifts. The establishment of Task Force 250 aims to create a nationwide celebration, reminiscent of the American Freedom Train that showcased American history.
Reviving the American Freedom Train could enhance the Quarter-Millennial festivities, making it a year-long celebration across the country. The train previously connected millions to America's heritage, and with proper planning, it could serve as a symbol of national unity and pride once again.
