Trump’s Iran talks stall as Tehran gains the upper hand

An op-ed argues that Trump’s attempt to end the Iran war is failing: Iran now holds more leverage, and the emerging deal centers on fully reopening the Strait of Hormuz and easing sanctions while deferring the toughest questions—nuclear ambitions, ballistic missiles, and regional militias. Trump’s fear of weakness and his withdrawal from the 2015 accord have left Iran stronger and the prospect of a quick victory unlikely, effectively giving Tehran a new economic lever and risking a protracted, limited agreement rather than a decisive win.

Trump Declared in Excellent Health After Annual Medical Exam

President Donald Trump underwent his annual medical examination at Walter Reed, with his doctor reporting he is in excellent health and fully fit to perform his duties. The memo notes strong cardiac, pulmonary, and neurological function, normal cognitive testing (30/30 on the Montreal Cognitive Assessment), a cardiac age about 14 years younger than his chronological age, and ongoing use of aspirin and cholesterol medications; it also mentions slight weight gain and prior venous insufficiency that has improved, framing the visit as routine health monitoring ahead of his 80th birthday.

Trump directs CDC to follow new HHS vaccine assessment calling for fewer childhood shots

President Trump signed an executive order directing the CDC and its advisory committee to align U.S. childhood vaccine recommendations with a Department of Health and Human Services assessment that America administers more vaccines than peer nations, after the agency had moved to reduce the schedule from 17 to 11 vaccines. The order prompts ACIP to review the latest data and update the immunization schedule amid controversy, including reactions from medical groups and legal challenges tied to Kennedy Jr.’s leadership of the new panel.

Trump exits Situation Room without Iran deal verdict

Trump left a two-hour Situation Room meeting without delivering a final determination on an Iran deal, reiterating redlines that Iran must never obtain a nuclear weapon, the Strait of Hormuz should be opened without restrictions, and enriched uranium should be destroyed under IAEA oversight; talks on extending the ceasefire were ongoing but no agreement or public update was provided, and the White House did not comment on prospects.

Trump Declared in Excellent Health, Emphasizing Stamina Ahead of Elections

Trump’s doctors say he is in “excellent health” and fully fit to serve after a six‑month medical exam at Walter Reed. The report notes he weighs 238 pounds (BMI ~29.7), with slight leg swelling that has improved since last year, and a Montreal Cognitive Assessment score of 30/30. His cholesterol has improved to 143 on rosuvastatin and ezetimibe, and doctors recommended a switch to low‑dose aspirin; minor bruising on his hands from aspirin therapy was also noted. The investigation emphasizes strong cognitive/physical performance as he projects strength ahead of the midterm elections.

Judge Orders Trump to Answer Fraud Claims in IRS Settlement

A federal judge ordered President Donald Trump to respond by June 12 to grievous allegations that his deal to settle the IRS lawsuit, financed by a $1.776 billion fund, was the result of fraud on the court; former federal judges urged reopening the case to probe Trump and DOJ conduct, and the settlement also bars investigations into his past tax returns—a setup critics call a slush fund for his allies.

Trump’s $1.8B 'anti-weaponization' fund stalls as GOP pressure grows

President Trump’s proposed $1.8 billion 'anti-weaponization fund' is stalled amid mounting Republican backlash and court actions. A federal judge temporarily blocked progress and another ordered Trump to respond to fraud claims, as some allies urge scrapping the plan. The fund, meant to compensate people who feel harmed by the Biden DOJ, has been criticized as a slush fund for Trump allies, including some Capitol riot participants. The controversy is complicating immigration legislation as lawmakers return to Capitol Hill, with Trump pushing for a June 1 deadline that many Republicans are reluctant to meet.
