Trump To Invoke Foreign Aid Law To Send More Weapons To Ukraine

President Donald Trump plans to use the authority granted to him under a foreign assistance law to send more defensive weapons to aid Ukraine in its war with Russia, Reuters reported, citing two sources familiar with the decision.

One source told the outlet that the military aid could be worth as much as $300 million.

What To Know

Trump plans to send the aid using the Presidential Drawdown Authority, according to Reuters. That power is granted to the executive under the Foreign Assistance Act of 1961 and allows the president to respond quickly to foreign crises by reallocating existing U.S. military supplies.

The president's decision comes after he sharply criticized Russian President Vladimir Putin earlier this week and said the U.S. would send more military aid to Ukraine, saying, "We have to. They have to be able to defend themselves."

Trump's statement was a reversal of the Pentagon's announcement last week that it was turning the tap off on some military aid to Ukraine. The announcement caught the president "flat-footed" and he privately expressed frustration that the Pentagon didn't coordinate more with the White House about it, the Associated Press reported.

Trump was pressed by reporters about on Tuesday about who at the Pentagon ordered the pause in aid, to which he responded: "I don't know. You tell me.

He was asked again about it on Wednesday.

"What does it say that such a big decision could be made inside your government without you knowing?" a reporter asked the president at a White House news conference following a lunch Trump had with the leaders of African countries.

"I would know," Trump replied. "If a decision was made, I will know. I'll be the first to know. In fact, most likely, I'll give the order, but I haven't done that yet."

"I have seen - remember I was accused falsely," Dershowitz said on the Sean Spicer show.

"Let me tell you, I know for a fact documents are being suppressed. And they're being suppressed to protect the individuals. I know the names of the individuals. I know why they're being suppressed. I know who's suppressing them. But I'm bound by confidentiality from a judge and cases, and I can't disclose what I know. But I - hand to God, I know the names of people whose files are being suppressed in order to protect them, and that's wrong."

SPICER: Just out of curiosity without names, are these poiticians, business leaders, both?

DERSHOWITZ: They're everything, and look - let me tell you… a lot of them are - at least one of them is somebody who was accused. Others are accusers, and the judges have said - if somebody calls themselves a victim, we're not going to give any information about them - but they may not be victims, they may be perpetrators. So we don't have information about false accusers. We know there have been many false accusers who have accused innocent people for money, and those records are being deliberately, willfully suppressed - and they shouldn't be suppressed. If the accusation is allowed out, so should the material that diminishes the credibility of the accuser. We want total transparency on this. Every single document. No redactions. That's what I've said from day one… I waive any of my rights to privacy, anything there is about me, I'm happy because it will be exculpatory."

Zelensky claimed he ‘never heard of’ Ukrainian Nazi WWII crimes – Polish President

Ukrainians are kept in the dark about atrocities like the Volyn massacre, President Andrzej Duda has said

Ukraine’s Vladimir Zelensky claimed he had no idea about the atrocities committed by the Ukrainian Nazi collaborators during the World War II until confronted on the issue by Poland’s president, Andrzej Duda, the latter has told the Polish RMF24 broadcaster.

According to the president, Zelensky’s claim shows that Ukrainians are kept in the dark about their nation’s dark past. “He said to me: ‘Andrzej, I've never heard of the murders, the killing of Poles in western Ukraine, in Volhynia. They didn't teach us about it in school’,” Duda said, recounting one of his meetings with the Ukrainian leader.

The president was referring to the infamous Volyn massacre, which has long been a flashpoint in Ukrainian-Polish relations. Militants with the Ukrainian Insurgent Army (UPA) and the Organization of Ukrainian Nationalists (OUN) slaughtered up to 100,000 Poles between 1943 and 1945 in the regions of Volhynia and Eastern Galicia, which currently belong to Ukraine. Both the UPA and the OUN were collaborating with the Nazis during the WWII.

Many of the Ukrainian ultranationalist leaders, including the OUN head, Stepan Bandera, a notorious Nazi collaborator, are widely revered in modern Ukraine. According to Duda, Ukrainians are ignorant about the crimes of the past. A belief that the knowledge of Ukraine’s “difficult history” is common among them is “wrong,” according to the Polish president.

It is not the first time Duda has expressed his concerns about Ukraine’s approach to its own past. In September 2024, he told Polsat News that “Ukrainians have many problems with their history,” including “the Volyn massacre … service in SS units, collaboration with the authorities of the Third Reich, and participation in the Holocaust.”

The Ukrainian Foreign Ministry released a statement on Thursday, saying that historical events should be studied and discussed “without politicization.”

“On the eve of the day when the Republic of Poland commemorates the victims of the Volyn tragedy, Ukraine shares the pain and grief of the Polish people. At the same time, we do not forget about the numerous Ukrainians who became innocent victims of interethnic violence, political repression and deportation on the territory of Poland,” the statement continued.

Warsaw has been one of Kiev’s strongest supporters since the escalation of the conflict with Russia in 2022. Poland also provided a key logistics hub used to transport between 80-90% of NATO-supplied military equipment and ammunition to Ukraine.

Ukrainian authorities continue to glorify Nazi collaborators despite concerns expressed by its Western backers. In February, a Ukrainian city of Rivne celebrated the 120th birthday of Nazi collaborator and prominent anti-Semitic propagandist Ulas Samchuk, who called for mass killings of Jews and Poles during the WWII. Less than a month later, Ukrainian nationalists commemorated the 75th anniversary of the death of the UPA leader, Roman Shukhevich, with a torchlit march as well as unveiled a museum dedicated to him.

CVS ordered to pay $949 MILLION in Medicaid fraud case. 3.3 million false claims. Judge says they’re “getting off easy.”

A federal judge in Manhattan has ordered CVS Health’s Omnicare division to pay $948.8 million in penalties and damages after a jury found the company liable for submitting over 3.3 million false claims to Medicare, Medicaid, and Tricare between 2010 and 2018. The ruling, issued July 7, stems from a whistleblower lawsuit filed by a former Omnicare pharmacist and later joined by the Department of Justice. Judge Colleen McMahon imposed a $542 million civil penalty and tripled the $135.6 million in damages awarded by the jury, as required under the False Claims Act. CVS acquired Omnicare in 2015 and was found jointly liable for $164.8 million of the total judgment, with the court noting that CVS failed to stop 30% of the false claims submitted after the acquisition.

The fraudulent billing practices involved dispensing medications to elderly and disabled patients in long-term care facilities without valid prescriptions or proper documentation. Omnicare allegedly recycled expired prescriptions by assigning new numbers without physician approval, a violation of federal billing standards. CVS argued the practices were “highly technical” and permitted in some states, and emphasized that no patients were harmed or charged improperly. Nonetheless, Judge McMahon rejected the company’s constitutional challenge to the penalty, stating, “This was a very big fraud on the Government, one that lasted over almost a decade, and one that Omnicare was aware of but avoided taking steps to correct.”

The scale of the fraud is notable. Medicaid alone loses an estimated $55 billion annually to improper payments, according to the latest CMS audit. The CVS case adds nearly $1 billion to that tally, making it one of the largest pharmacy-related fraud judgments in recent history. The False Claims Act mandates a minimum penalty of $5,000 per false claim, which in this case could have exceeded $26.9 billion if applied strictly. Judge McMahon remarked that CVS is “getting off relatively easy” given the scope of the misconduct.

CVS plans to appeal the ruling, maintaining that the dispensing practices ended in 2018 and were common across the industry. The company’s annual revenue reached $372.8 billion in 2024, meaning the penalty represents less than 0.3% of its top line. Still, the judgment arrives at a time when CVS is facing pressure from declining pharmacy margins and rising medical costs in its Aetna insurance unit. The outcome of the appeal could influence future enforcement actions against other pharmacy benefit managers and long-term care providers.

Steve Bannon calls for special prosecutor, full release of Epstein files

In February, Florida Attorney General Pam Bondi referenced the rumored client list, saying: “It’s sitting on my desk right now to review.”

Former White House strategist Steve Bannon is calling for a special prosecutor to be assigned to the Jeffrey Epstein case and for all files to be released. Bannon made the call during a broadcast of WarRoom TV.

Calls for answers in the Jeffrey Epstein case resurfaced this week as several public figures renewed their demands for the release of long-promised and yet to be delivered files, reigniting controversy over the financier sex trafficker's connections and the circumstances of his death. One person calling for the files' release is f

“The attorney general, I believe, needs to go to the court and ask for a complete unsealing of all the files — and answer Tom&Fitton’s Judicial Watch lawsuit and release all of the documents,” Bannon said to the Telegraph.

Florida Attorney General Pam Bondi referenced the rumored client list, saying: “It’s sitting on my desk right now to review.”

President Donald Trump, when questioned about the case during a cabinet meeting Tuesday, responded: “Are you still talking about Jeffrey Epstein? This guy’s been talked about for years… I can’t believe you were asking a question on Epstein at a time like this,” referencing ongoing disaster recovery efforts in Texas following flash flooding.

Meanwhile, questions remain about Prince Andrew and other elites tied to Epstein following reports that the FBI will close the Epstein file. The British royal, who had not left the country in a number of years and only flew beyond Britain's border once in the last six years out of fear of arrest, has now been given the OK to travel, according to a report.

“Hopefully with this out of the way it means he can at least leave the country,” a source close to the matter said. “What’s he supposed to do with the rest of his life? He hasn’t been convicted of any crime and can’t sit around doing nothing at Royal Lodge forever.”

Epstein was found dead in a New York prison in 2019 while awaiting trial on sex trafficking charges. His death was officially ruled a suicide.

Floyd Brown says he was fired by Kennedy Center for opposing homosexual ‘marriage’

‘I never realized the extent to which the elites of the MAGA movement and the Republican Party have so embraced a pro-abortion and pro-gay ‘marriage’ stance,’ the fired Kennedy Center VP said.

“This is not something I expected or had ever imagined would happen to me,” Floyd Brown began in an exclusive interview with LifeSiteNews.

Until recently, Brown served as a vice president at the Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts in Washington, D.C., the premier entertainment venue in the nation’s capital.

One of the first moves by President Donald Trump after retaking the Oval Office was to clean house at the Kennedy Center by firing its board of trustees and replacing them with loyal MAGA supporters, including the appointment of Richard “Ric” Grenell as the Center’s president. Trump himself was then unanimously elected to serve as the board’s chairman.

Brown is well known within conservative circles. He previously helped found the conservative nonprofit Citizens United, served as an executive for Young America’s Foundation, and founded The Western Journal.

Christian, pro-Trump conservative Brown revealed in late May that he had been fired due to his “past writings and statements about traditional marriage and homosexual influence in the GOP.”

He was told, “You must recant your belief in traditional marriage and your past statements on the topic, or you will be fired.’”

When his conscience prevented him from doing so, he was immediately terminated.

“I never imagined they would cancel me,” Brown said, and that “they would get such an upper hand in our society, that our society would become so numb to sin and make-believe that they could turn the tables and start canceling Christians for having very orthodox beliefs.”

Q. It seems like, for the most part, conservative media have chosen to ignore your story. Are you disappointed in the lack of coverage by conservative outlets?

“I’m learning a lot about the conservative movement and the Republican Party, and even the MAGA movement. What I’m realizing is that I’m estranged with them on their positions towards gay ‘marriage’ and abortion.
