YouTube Description
as posted by the channel1. President Donald Trump's administration has asked the U.S. Supreme Court to intervene in its bid to fire the head of an independent U.S. agency that protects government whistleblowers, bringing its first legal battle involving Trump's actions to the nation's highest judicial body since he took office in January.
2. U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio arrives in Saudi Arabia on Monday ahead of expected talks with Russian officials aimed at ending Moscow's nearly three-year war in Ukraine. The talks come after President Donald Trump last week spoke to Russian President Vladimir Putin by phone and ordered top officials to begin negotiations on the war, which he repeatedly vowed to end during his presidential campaign.
3. Personnel from Elon Musk's government downsizing team DOGE will visit the Federal Aviation Administration's Air Traffic Control command center in Warrenton, Virginia, on Monday, as the Trump administration says it wants to reform the system.
4. President Xi Jinping held a rare meeting on Monday with some of the biggest names in China's technology sector, such as Alibaba founder Jack Ma, urging them to "show their talent" and be confident in the power of China's model and market.
5. Europe's largest economy contracted for a second consecutive year in 2024, its worst performance in two decades. And Gelsenkirchen has been amongst its hardest-hit cities - it has Germany's highest unemployment rate, which has fuelled a dramatic rise in the popularity of the far-right Alternative for Germany (AfD) party. Ahead of a general election on Sunday, a national debate is raging about how to revive Germany's economic fortunes.
