1. Insider Trading? Officials Sold Stocks Before Trump’s Tariff Bombshell
At least 14 senior government officials executed stock sales in tech, shipping, and logistics just days before President Trump announced new tariffs against China. These industries were hit hardest after the policy shift. Critics are calling it “clear insider trading.” According to a report reviewed by Virginia Times, multiple agencies are now reviewing trade disclosures, and congressional oversight may follow.
2. Two Israeli Embassy Staff Killed in D.C. Terror Attack
A fatal shooting in Washington, D.C. claimed the lives of two Israeli embassy staffers outside the Capital Jewish Museum. Authorities confirmed the attack was intentional and are treating it as a terror incident. The suspects fled, and security across all foreign diplomatic sites in D.C. has been elevated. President Trump vowed a coordinated international response.
3. House Passes Trump’s ‘One Big Beautiful Bill Act’ by One Vote
The House of Representatives passed the sweeping 900-page legislation dubbed the “One Big Beautiful Bill Act” — by a razor-thin 215–214 vote. The bill includes broad changes to welfare, tax brackets, and federal border enforcement policy. Republicans celebrated the win, while Democrats decried it as reckless and extreme. The bill now heads to the Senate.
4. Federal Judge Blocks Trump Administration’s Student Visa Termination Plan
In a legal blow to the Trump administration, a California federal court blocked efforts to terminate the legal status of over 200,000 international students. The court ruled the policy violated due process protections and threatened U.S. academic institutions. The White House is expected to appeal.
5. Harvard Barred from Enrolling Foreign Students Over Antisemitism, China Ties
In a dramatic escalation of federal oversight, the State Department revoked Harvard University’s SEVP certification. The move comes after allegations of ongoing antisemitic incidents and unreported financial links to Chinese Communist Party–connected foundations. Harvard has denied the accusations and is preparing legal action. This decision could impact thousands of current and future students.
