The official financial fund set up for Donald Trump’s Board of Peace has received exactly zero dollars—but that doesn’t necessarily mean that cash isn’t flowing into the president’s slush fund run by war criminals.
Four months after Trump launched his preposterous pet project for Gaza, the group’s official fund set up by the World Bank and approved by the United Nations has yet to see a drop of…

Despite efforts by both Moscow and Washington to get Viktor Orbán reelected after his sixteen-year rule, the Hungarian strongman was ousted in last Sunday’s election.

President Trump promised to cut energy prices in half within his first year in office. He has done the exact opposite. Electricity prices rose nearly 7% last year, with the typical household paying $123 more for electricity in 2025 alone.
