President Trump has utilized the court's emergency docket, resulting in 12 out of 15 resolved applications favoring him, raising concerns about executive power expansion.
This trend highlights the court's increasing involvement in urgent matters, reflecting a shift in judicial dynamics under Trump's administration. The implications of these decisions could resonate across various aspects of governance and law.

The Economist: Support for gay marriage is declining in America
Support for gay marriage in America is declining, reversing the trend that saw increasing acceptance since the Supreme Court's 2015 ruling in Obergefell v Hodges. Initially met with strong opposition, public opinion shifted over the years, but recent polls indicate a downturn in support.
The intertwining of gay and trans rights may be contributing to this decline, as public sentiment appears to be shifting away from the once-growing acceptance of same-sex marriage.

Jaguar's vehicle sales in Europe plummeted by 97.5% in April 2025, with only 49 units sold compared to 1,961 the previous year. This decline follows the company's controversial rebranding and a new advertising campaign that did not feature any cars.
Year-to-date sales have also dropped 75.1%, reflecting a shift away from Jaguar's heritage towards a lifestyle-focused brand. The managing director defended the campaign as bold, claiming the message was misunderstood amid social media backlash.

Fox News: Putin's attempt to 'play Trump' on Ukraine will fail, former national security advisor says
Russian President Vladimir Putin has escalated attacks on Ukraine, launching the largest aerial strike since the conflict began. Retired Gen. H.R. McMaster suggests that Putin's aggressive strategy is a façade to project strength, while he is actually facing significant economic challenges.
The U.S. has paused some weapons shipments to Ukraine, raising concerns about the impact on the conflict. McMaster believes this situation may prompt former President Trump to adopt a firmer stance against Putin, emphasizing the importance of U.S. support for Ukraine.
Breitbart: Hostage-Ceasefire Deal Takes Shape; Hamas Insists UN Control Aid
A potential hostage-and-ceasefire agreement is emerging between Israel and Hamas, with plans for the release of several living hostages in exchange for a 60-day pause in fighting. President Trump indicated that a deal could be finalized next week during Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu's visit to the White House.
The deal may involve the return of living and deceased hostages, but details remain unclear, including whether Israel will release Palestinian prisoners or withdraw its military from Gaza. Hamas has requested that the UN resume control of aid in Gaza. A ceasefire could pave the way for broader regional peace efforts.
The Telegraph: Trump has hung Ukraine out to dry
Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelensky has complied with various U.S. demands regarding military aid, yet recent reports indicate the U.S. Department of Defense has paused key weapons deliveries to Ukraine, leaving it vulnerable to Russian attacks. This decision raises concerns about U.S. commitment to Ukraine's defense.
Despite Trump signaling opposition to future arms shipments, the freeze on already promised weapons appears counterproductive. European nations are struggling to fill the gap left by U.S. support, with many relying on purchasing U.S. arms to donate to Ukraine. The situation for Zelensky is increasingly precarious.
Times Of Israel: France says decision on Iran sanctions hinges on release of imprisoned nationals

Iran recently halted cooperation with the UN nuclear watchdog amid escalating tensions following military actions between Iran and Israel. The detainees face serious charges, including espionage and plotting against the regime, which could lead to severe penalties.
