Donald Trump has eight days before he will be forced to make up his mind on Iran. He wants to end the unpopular war, but claimed on Thursday he was under “no time pressure” to do so. In fact, the US president is bound by the 1973 War Powers Resolution, which limits his ability to wage war without congressional approval to 60 days. That deadline passes on May 1, 60 days after his formal notification of the war to Congress on March 2. It will compel him to choose one of four options – seek congressional authorisation to continue the...

You know that satisfying moment when President Trump lays down the law, tells Europe to stop free-riding, and suddenly the “allies” start scrambling like their lives depend on it? That’s exactly what just happened with the Strait of Hormuz. After Trump publicly called out NATO countries for refusing to send ships to help secure the critical waterway — and straight-up threatened to pull the U.S. back entirely and let Europe handle it themselves — NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte folded fast. In a new statement, Rutte admitted allies are now **rushing** to find a way forward:

A tech entrepreneur has created a personalised cancer vaccine for his dog, a breakthrough experts say could shape the future of human medicine. Sydney man Paul Conyngham adopted his 'best mate' Rosie, an eight-year-old staffy-Shar Pei cross in 2019. In 2024, the canine was diagnosed with mast cell cancer after large tumours started to appear on one of her back legs. Mast cell cancer is the most common skin cancer found in dogs, and often appears as lumps, nodules or masses in the skin. Mr Conyngham spent thousands on veterinary chemotherapy for Rosie, which slowed the spread of the tumours...

Former President Joe Biden told mourners at Rev. Jesse Jackson’s memorial service Friday that he is “a hell of a lot smarter than most of you,” a pointed remark that stood out during his tribute to the late civil rights leader. Biden made the comment while recounting how he was mocked as a child for his stutter and how speech impediments are often mistaken for a lack of intelligence. “If I told you I had a cleft palate or clubfoot, none of you would have laughed,” Biden said. “But it’s OK to laugh at stuttering. … It’s the one place...

Less than 14% of nearly 400,000 immigrants arrested by Immigration and Customs Enforcement in President Trump's first year back in the White House had charges or convictions for violent criminal offenses, according to an internal Department of Homeland Security document obtained by CBS News. The official statistics contained in the DHS document, which had not been previously reported publicly, provide the most detailed look yet into who ICE has arrested during the Trump administration's far-reaching deportation operations across the U.S. The internal DHS figures undermine frequent assertions by the Trump administration that its crackdown on illegal immigration is primarily targeting...

Jeannine Pirro, the U.S. attorney for the District of Columbia, on Monday threatened jail time for anyone who enters the capital with a gun. In remarks on Fox News that could deepen a growing rift between gun owners and the Trump administration, Ms. Pirro declared that if anyone brings “a gun into the District, you mark my words, you’re going to jail. I don’t care if you have a license in another district and I don’t care if you’re a law-abiding gun owner somewhere else.” Her remarks prompted swift pushback from the Republican Party’s pro-Second Amendment wing, which was thrown...

Back in October, Neil Young pledged to remove all of his music from Amazon. And in a recent post on the Neil Young Archives, he said he's sticking with the plan. "Amazon is owned by Jeff Bezos, a billionaire backer of the president," he wrote. "The president's international policies and his support of ICE make it impossible for me to ignore his actions. If you feel as I do, I strongly recommend that you do not use Amazon..." Young's complete catalog and a vast archive of live concerts, studio outtakes, and concert films is available on the Neil Young Archives...

Donald Trump has warned the US may pull out of NATO if America's allies don't agree to its acquisition of Greenland. 'Will you pull out of NATO if it doesn't help you acquire Greenland,' a reporter asked the president outside the White House on Friday. Trump warned: 'We're going to see.

If we don't have it we have a very big hole in terms of national security, especially in terms of the Golden Dome.' The Golden Dome is a proposed multi-layer missile defense system...
