Tech entrepreneur Elon Musk said that advances in artificial intelligence and robotics could render traditional work roles unnecessary within 10 to 20 years. He added that the concept of money itself may eventually become irrelevant. Speaking at a high-profiles investment forum, Musk compared future work to leisure activities like gardening or gaming, suggesting that AI-powered automation could handle most essential tasks while humans pursue activities of choice. He stressed that significant development remains before such a shift becomes reality but described the long-term outcome as “probably positive.” Musk also cited his company’s Optimus robot project as an example of the…

Despite months of public hostility, President Donald Trump and New York City Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani showed surprisingly friendly behavior during their first face-to-face meeting in the Oval Office. During a 30-minute meeting on housing affordability and urban concerns, both leaders grinned widely and seemed at ease. According to body-language researchers, Trump’s handshakes and taps were seen as warm but domineering, whereas Mamdani’s stance—hands clasped and eager—suggested a willingness to cooperate. The tone was very different from previous verbal abuse: Mamdani had labeled Trump a “despot,” and Trump had dubbed Mamdani a “100% Communist lunatic.” Following the encounter, Trump pledged federal…
A high-profile figure who has provided financial support and lifestyle benefits—such as homes and a private jet—to Prince Harry and Meghan Markle is reportedly facing funding constraints that may impact the couple’s opulent standard of living. Sources note that expenditures previously underwritten, including leasing multiple properties and maintaining a dedicated aircraft, are now being scaled back. The backer is said to be repositioning priorities amid mounting financial pressure.

President Donald Trump publicly celebrated the announced resignation of Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, effective January 5, 2026, calling it “great news for the country.” He said he was not informed ahead of her decision and said she should be “happy.” Greene, a former staunch Trump ally, cited frustration with escalating conflicts within the Republican Party and her decision to avoid a contentious primary. Her resignation follows a public split with Trump over policy disagreements, including the release of investigation records related to Jeffrey Epstein. The departure will slightly reduce the GOP’s narrow House majority, and Georgia’s governor must now schedule…
A newly released U.S. peace framework for the war in Ukraine has surprised diplomats by setting only modest demands on Russia, while placing significant obligations on Kyiv. Key elements of the proposal include the following: Ukraine is required to implement broad constitutional reforms and decentralize certain regions before major aid is released. Russia is asked to withdraw forces from non-Ukrainian territory and guarantee humanitarian access—but is not required to pay war reparations or admit wrongdoing. The United States would coordinate a coalition to deploy peacekeepers and monitor compliance, but direct U.S. combat involvement is excluded. Some American officials have expressed…
A White House press briefing this week defended President Donald Trump after he called a Bloomberg correspondent “piggy” during an Air Force One exchange about the Jeffrey Epstein files. Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt said the remark stemmed from the president’s frustration with what he viewed as “fake news,” and described his blunt style as a strength. The confrontation took place when the reporter began to ask why Trump had delayed the documents’ release if no wrongdoing was contained within them. Trump interrupted: “Quiet. Quiet, piggy,” and refused to continue. Afterwards, Leavitt defended the interaction, stating that Trump’s directness and readiness…
Mississippi officials have pledged to cooperate fully with the federal immigration operation dubbed “Swamp Sweep,” in which roughly 250 U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents will deploy to parts of Mississippi and Louisiana to target undocumented individuals. The state has signed on as a formal law-enforcement partner under the initiative, with Attorney General Lynn Fitch stating that Mississippi welcomes the operation and intends to assist in efforts to apprehend criminal non-citizens. The initiative aims to make the region part of one of the Trump administration’s largest yet targeted immigration sweeps. Federal planning documents reveal the operation will prioritize areas…
A violent street confrontation in Leeds, England, saw three masked teenagers wielding 24-inch machetes and fighting each other in the middle of the road around 2:30 p.m. on November 8.

At a White House press briefing Thursday, Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt abruptly ended the session and exited the room following a sharp exchange with CNN’s Kaitlan Collins, who challenged her on the president’s remarks about lawmakers and the military. Collins asked why the administration hadn’t specified which orders it considered illegal and questioned Leavitt’s claim that the lawmakers’ message was “illegal.” Leavitt answered that the matter “perhaps is punishable by law,” and repeated objections before walking away. The incident underscores escalating tensions between the press office and major news outlets, as Leavitt’s team has emphasized more selective access while insisting…
Zohran Mamdani, the next mayor of New York City, received surprising praise and support from President Donald Trump during their meeting at the White House following his earlier harsh rhetoric. Over the course of a half-hour meeting, both men’s tone changed dramatically. “We want this city of ours that we love to do very well,” Trump stated, referring to Mamdani as a “rational person.” He promised federal support and stated that he expected Mamdani to be “a really great mayor.” According to Mamdani, the discussion was “productive” and concentrated on common concerns including affordable housing, lower grocery costs, and New…
The White House publicly dismissed Senator Sheldon Whitehouse’s criticism of the Trump administration’s refusal to fund his trip to the COP30 climate conference in Brazil, labeling him a “victim” of what it called the “Green New Scam.” Whitehouse, a Democrat from Rhode Island, had accused the administration of abandoning U.S. leadership on climate change after the State Department declined to support his credentialing and travel to the summit. He said the lack of support demonstrated the country’s failure to engage at the global event. In response, a White House spokeswoman said the administration would not waste taxpayer dollars on what…
Following public remarks by President Donald Trump accusing six Democratic lawmakers of “seditious behavior” and suggesting their actions are “punishable by death,” House Democratic leadership requested immediate 24/7 security from the U.S. Capitol Police and the House Sergeant at Arms. Members involved—including Sen. Elissa Slotkin (Mich.) and Sen. Mark Kelly (Ariz.)—had released a video urging military personnel and intelligence professionals to refuse “illegal orders.” Trump responded by labeling the lawmakers “traitors” and posting messages that amplified threats against them. The heightened security detail speaks to escalating concerns within Congress about political speech, deterrence of violence, and the safety of elected…
Israel launched a fresh wave of airstrikes in the Gaza Strip after accusing Hamas militants of violating a U.S.-brokered truce by engaging Israeli troops along the “Yellow Line” demarcation. Israeli officials say the strikes killed at least 27 people and wounded 88 others, marking the deadliest single-day assault since the cease-fire began October 10. The Israeli military stated it acted in response to what it described as daily Hamas provocations, including cross-border engagements and attempts to test Israel’s forces. Hamas rejected the accusation, instead condemning the strikes as “dangerous escalation” that threatens the fragile peace. Mediators in Qatar and other…
