Shiroi Kiba JutSu: 🇺🇸 Musk Ends His Role in Trump Admin

In partnership with

Nick Weston here—

President Trump just laid down the clock on Putin.

After weeks of stalled talks and bloodshed in Kyiv, Trump says he'll give Russia two weeks to prove they're serious about peace in Ukraine — or he'll shift course.

Trump said Wednesday:

👉 "We're going to find out whether or not he's tapping us along… and if he is, we'll respond differently."

👉 "The words speak pretty loud. We're not happy about that situation."

Trump isn't bluffing. Behind closed doors, top aides are weighing options—including crippling new sanctions—if Putin keeps playing games.

Bottom line: Trump wants peace. And he's not afraid to turn up the pressure.

Hey Team! 😎

President Trump bids farewell to Elon Musk, who concluded his transformative role leading the Department of Government Efficiency, saving taxpayers billions by slashing wasteful federal spending. The groundbreaking progress of DOGE will continue to streamline the bloated federal system, ensuring lasting efficiency.

At the same time, Trump drives forward with his bold agenda, pushing the "Big, Beautiful" bill to bolster economic prosperity and defending tariffs to prioritize American interests. His unwavering commitment to strengthening our border and empowering citizens shines through despite relentless opposition from the left.

Check out all the latest developments and more below!

⚖️ Federal Court Halts Trump's Tariff Plan
A federal trade court in New York blocked President Trump from imposing sweeping tariffs on imports, ruling that he exceeded his authority under the 1977 International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA). The court's decision, issued on Thursday, by a three-judge panel, invalidated Trump's 10% across-the-board tariffs and specific levies on Canada, Mexico, and China, including his April 2 "Liberation Day" tariffs aimed at addressing trade deficits and fentanyl trafficking. The judges determined that IEEPA does not grant the president unlimited tariff authority, as Congress holds exclusive power over commerce with foreign nations. The ruling followed lawsuits from twelve states and small businesses, arguing that the tariffs disrupted supply chains and raised costs. The Trump administration has filed an appeal, with the case potentially heading to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit and the Supreme Court.

💰 Trump Pushs for Tax Bill Revisions
President Trump announced plans to negotiate changes to the "Big, Beautiful" tax bill, a House-passed package extending his 2017 tax cuts, increasing border security funding, and cutting Medicaid benefits, but adding $3.8 trillion to the federal deficit over a decade. The legislation, which also includes a controversial tobacco tax increase, has drawn scrutiny from fiscal conservatives within the GOP, prompting Trump to seek modifications to address these concerns. He expressed dissatisfaction with certain provisions, particularly those inflating the deficit, and aims to work with Senate Republicans to refine the bill. Senate Majority Leader John Thune supports a thorough legislative process, indicating openness to amendments to align the bill with GOP priorities.

🕊️ Trump Urges Netanyahu to Pause Iran Strikes
President Trump confirmed he advised Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to refrain from striking Iran's nuclear facilities, emphasizing that such actions would be inappropriate during ongoing U.S.-Iran nuclear negotiations. The warning followed reports that Israel planned attacks in May, which Trump cautioned could jeopardize diplomatic efforts to limit Iran's nuclear program. In a Truth Social post on Wednesday, Trump stressed his desire for a "strong document" to resolve tensions with Iran peacefully. He highlighted his past influence in preventing escalations, noting that his first term's policies kept Iran in check. The move aligns with Trump's focus on diplomacy to stabilize the region while maintaining pressure on Iran's nuclear ambitions.

⚖️ Trump Issues Latest Presidential Pardons
President Trump issued a series of pardons on Wednesday, including reality TV stars Todd and Julie Chrisley, convicted in 2022 for a $36 million bank fraud and tax evasion scheme, freeing them from prison sentences of 12 and 7 years, respectively. The pardons also included rapper NBA YoungBoy, whose real name is Kentrell Gaulden, releasing him from federal weapons charges and probation after serving time. Additional clemency was granted to former New York Congressman Michael Grimm, convicted of tax fraud, and former Connecticut Governor John Rowland, convicted of corruption. Trump's executive actions, announced via the White House, aimed to address what he described as excessive punishments. The pardons allow the recipients to resume their careers and personal lives, with NBA YoungBoy planning a tour and the Chrisleys returning to their real estate business.

President Trump, shown on May 20, says it will cost Canada $61 billion US to join his proposed Golden Dome missile defense system, unless it becomes a 51st state.

🔔 Musk Ends His Role in Trump Administration🔔

Elon Musk has announced the completion of his transformative role as a special government employee leading the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) under President Trump's administration, stepping down after a whirlwind 130-day mission to overhaul federal operations.

Among the biggest accomplishments was slashing $160 billion in wasteful spending by April, achieved by terminating 2,300 redundant federal contracts that drained taxpayer funds. Musk also spearheaded the closure of the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID), redirecting billions to domestic priorities, and led the Social Security Administration to eliminate 12.3 million outdated records, saving an estimated $287 billion monthly by curbing fraud. Beyond these headline victories, DOGE modernized federal IT systems, saving over $1 million through digitized backups, offered buyouts to reduce the federal workforce by 11%, and streamlined countless bureaucratic processes to prioritize American innovation.

With his mission accomplished, Musk announced that he will return to leading his companies (Tesla, SpaceX, and X) ready to drive private-sector innovation with renewed vigor. He plans to accelerate SpaceX's Starship program, aiming for an uncrewed Mars mission by late 2026 to lay the groundwork for human exploration. He has also teased advancements in Tesla's autonomous driving technology, promising breakthroughs in AI-driven vehicles by mid-2026.

Musk's brief but impactful tenure revolutionized how the government operates, setting a bold precedent for efficiency and accountability. His data-driven approach identified and eliminated redundant programs, ensuring taxpayer dollars were used effectively. The administration plans to build on these reforms, embedding Musk's vision into ongoing federal operations.

His departure, shared via a dynamic post on X, marked the end of a historic chapter that reshaped Washington's bloated bureaucracy. President Trump praised Musk's "unmatched genius" and "relentless drive," noting that his work with DOGE has made America stronger and more prosperous. Musk's contributions to the Trump administration stand as a testament to his ability to deliver results, inspiring a new era of governance. His leadership has fortified the nation's foundation, proving that bold innovation can transform even the most entrenched systems.

⚖️ President Trump rejected a $15 million settlement offer from Paramount Global, the parent company of CBS News, in a $10 billion lawsuit alleging election interference through a manipulated 60 Minutes interview with Vice President Kamala Harris. The lawsuit, filed by Trump's legal team, claims Paramount and CBS deliberately edited the interview to mislead voters during the 2024 election, prompting the FCC to stall an $8 billion merger with Skydance. Paramount hired a consultant to determine an acceptable settlement amount, but Trump's team insists on a higher figure to reflect the alleged damage caused.

📜 A watchdog group, Power The Future, reported that there is no evidence former President Biden was aware of at least eight climate-related executive actions signed during his term, which were allegedly executed using an autopen without his direct knowledge. The group's analysis, covering orders from 2021, suggests these actions, including measures to curb fossil fuel development, were implemented by administration staff, raising questions about oversight. The report highlights the use of an autopen for signatures, a practice allowed under federal law but requiring presidential authorization, which the group claims is missing. The findings, released on May 28, call for further investigation into who authorized these orders within the Biden administration.
