Orbán does not want Ukraine and its war in the European Union.

For the last three and a half years, Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán has stood almost alone against the constant pro-Ukraine war mongering in Europe, only very recently joined by Slovak PM Robert Fico.

Orbán has consistently opposed Ukraine’s entrance on the EU, and has called a national referendum in Hungary about this, in which no less than 95% of those participating rejected ‘dragging’ the war-torn country into the troubled union.

‘They said NO to war, NO to economic ruin, and NO to Brussels’ delusions. With over 2 million votes cast, we’re taking our people’s mandate for peace and common sense to Brussels’, wrote Orbán on social media platform X.

The conservative champion argues that Ukraine’s EU membership would drag the entire Union into the war.

Now, backed by over two million Hungarian votes, he is sending a warning to Brussels to stop their ‘reckless plans’ once and for all.

Kyiv Independent reported:

“The poll, promoted by Prime Minister Viktor Orban’s government, has already drawn criticism over its credibility and turnout. [Hungarian news outlet] Telex reported that the system could be manipulated — testing showed that users were able to vote twice using different email addresses.

According to Telex, 2,278,000 people participated in the consultation — approximately 29% of the electorate that voted in the 2024 European Parliament elections. Of those, the government claimed 95% voted against Ukraine joining the EU, while only 5% supported the bid.”

Orbán is an unmovable obstacle for Kiev’s European ambitions.

The national vote on Ukraine’s EU accession was announced in March as part of Orbán’s effort to block the process.

Euractiv reported:

“According to the Hungarian government, the results published on Thursday show that 95% of surveyed citizens – approximately around 29% of the country’s eligible electorate – oppose Ukraine’s accession to the EU.

[…] Throughout the campaign, Orbán’s government made a concerted effort to sway public opinion, including widespread billboard, letter, and flyer messaging against Ukraine’s accession.

Orbán told reporters in Brussels at the EU summit that, based on these results, he plans to continue vetoing the opening of any further EU negotiation chapters with Ukraine.

‘The problem is the war, if we were to integrate Ukraine into the EU, we would integrate the war, we wouldn’t want to be in the same community as a country at war’, Orbán said.”

Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs Trial: Prosecution’s 5-Hour-Long Final Arguments Allege That Sex Trafficking Is ‘The Brutal Crime at the Heart of the Case’

Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs Trial: Prosecution’s 5-Hour-Long Final Arguments Allege That Sex Trafficking Is ‘The Brutal Crime at the Heart of the Case’
June 27, 2025

If convicted, Diddy faces up to life in prison.

And so, we’ve come to the final arguments in the high-profile, high-stakes sex-trafficking criminal trial of Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs.

Yesterday (26), the prosecution took almost 5 hours in their summation, and the defense is expected to finish their own allegations today, with the jury deliberations set to start on Monday.

The prosecution described Diddy as ‘a crime boss who abused his status as a powerful hip-hop mogul’ and forced his former ‘girlfriends’ into debasing sexual marathons, as a terrifying mogul using his fame, fortune and his employees to cover for his alleged crimes.

The New York Post reported:

“’He thought that his fame, wealth and power put him above the law — but over the course of this trial, his crimes have been exposed’, Assistant US Attorney Christy Slavik told jurors in closing statements.”

Prosecutors reminded the jury how Combs paid a security guard $100,000 cash in to get the ‘only copy’ of CCTV footage of him brutally beating Cassie Ventura in a Los Angeles hotel.

“’The defendant used power, violence and fear to get what he wanted’, she said. ‘Dozens of witnesses agreed – he doesn’t take no for an answer’.

[…] To convict on the racketeering rap, jurors will need to find that Combs was the kingpin of a crew that plotted at least two alleged crimes. They’ll have several choices: the car arson, sex trafficking of Ventura and Jane and the alleged bribe to the security guard.

Prosecutors said Combs should be found guilty on each of the two sex-trafficking counts — which carry a minimum 15-year prison sentence — even if only one of the countless sex sessions described by Ventura and Jane was coerced.”

Cassie and ‘Jane’ testified that Diddy threatened to release tapes of their sex sessions if they did not obey his demands.

“’He held these sex tapes over her head as collateral’, Slavik said, speaking about Ventura. ‘The freak-offs themselves became a way to coerce her into doing freak-offs’.”

Prosecution: ‘This is what happens if Cassie said ‘no’ to Diddy’.

During the final arguments, the prosecution explained the four elements of racketeering: a conspiracy to participate in the criminal enterprise, interstate or foreign ‘commerce’ (girlfriends and escorts), knowing and willful participation as Diddy arranged for drugs and prostitutes to travel across state lines, and finally: agreement that he and ‘members’ would commit racketeering acts related to sex trafficking, drugs, bribery and arson.

According to the feds, Diddy committed three acts of kidnapping: one against Cassie in 2009 when he stomped on her face and hid in a hotel while her injuries healed; two against former assistant Capricorn Clark: one when he made her take a lie detector test, and when she was allegedly woken up to help the drugged and armed rapper look for rival Kid Cudi in 2011.

It’s also alleged by prosecutors that Diddy was ‘100 percent behind Kid Cudi’s car blowing up’.

Jane was allegedly forced to continue to have sex by Diddy even after she vomited at ‘sobriety party’.

Prosecutors also reminded jury of the alleged ‘sick sex act’ in which he forced Cassie to be peed upon by escorts.

And, of course, there’s the Cassie beating CCTV video.

Daily Mail reported:

“’The incident should leave no doubt the defendant committed sex trafficking; he chased her and beat her and tried to drag her back to the room,’ Slavik told the jury.

She said this proves he was ‘using force and coercion to get Cassie back to that room’ so ‘they could finish the freak off’.

Slavik added that the video was proof of what happens when Cassie ‘said no’ to Diddy.”

Final statement in prosecutor’s closing argument:

“To end her closing argument, Slavik finished with this: ‘A lot of evidence was hard to hear, hard to see. The defendant ran his criminal enterprise with total control and with the loyal assistance of his inner circle.

Foot soldiers, personal assistants… who knew their one job was to say yes to the defendant. All of this [paints a] clear picture of how the defendant committed crime after crime for two decades, how he didn’t take no for an answer….

Up until today the defendant was able to get away with these crimes because of his money, his power and influence. That stops now, it’s time to hold him accountable.’ she ended.”

President Trump on Friday told reporters that after SCOTUS’s ruling on birthright citizenship and nationwide injunctions issued by rogue leftist District Court Judges, “we can now promptly file to proceed with numerous policies” that were previously blocked by radical left judges.

This includes previous executive orders and actions, such as “including birthright citizenship, ending sanctuary city funding, suspending refugee resettlement, freezing unnecessary funding, stopping federal taxpayers from paying for transgender surgeries and numerous other priorities of the American people,” the President told reporters.

As The Gateway Pundit reported, President Trump held a press conference in the White House Press Briefing Room on Friday.

Watch the full press conference here:

President Trump Holds Press Conference Following SCOTUS Ruling on Rogue Judges – 11:30 AM ET

This came just hours after the United States Supreme Court delivered a powerful rebuke of activist judges and handed President Trump a pivotal legal victory on Friday by reaffirming the rightful balance of power between the judiciary and the executive.

In a 6–3 decision, the Court sided with the Trump administration, ruling that federal district courts lack the constitutional or statutory authority to issue so-called ‘universal injunctions.’ The ruling stems from challenges to President Trump's executive order.

Hours after taking office, Trump signed an executive order ending birthright citizenship, which gives children born in the U.S. the immediate right to citizenship, The Gateway Pundit reported.

This order was intended to stop women from entering the U.S. illegally and giving birth to “anchor babies,” whose citizenship they then use for their own benefit.

However, it was immediately challenged by left-wing organizations.

President Trump noted during his press conference that birthright citizenship was meant for the babies of slaves, but now "hundreds of thousands of people are pouring into our country under birthright citizenship."

WATCH:

Trump: Thanks to this decision, we can now promptly file to proceed with numerous policies that have been wrongly enjoined on a nationwide basis. And some of the cases we're talking about would be ending birthright citizenship, which now comes to the fore. That was meant for the babies of slaves. It wasn't meant for people trying to scam the system and come into the country on a vacation.

This was— in fact, it was the same date, the exact same date [as] the end of the Civil War. It was meant for the babies of slaves. And it's so clean and so obvious, but this lets us go there and finally win that case, because hundreds of thousands of people are pouring into our country under birthright citizenship, and it wasn't meant for that reason. It was meant for the babies of slaves.

So, thanks to this decision, we can now promptly file to proceed with these numerous policies and those that have been wrongly enjoined on a nationwide basis, including birthright citizenship, ending sanctuary city funding, suspending refugee resettlement, freezing unnecessary funding, stopping federal taxpayers from paying for transgender surgeries and numerous other priorities of the American people.

President Trump on Friday responded to the Senate Parliamentarian’s decision to cut key provisions in his ‘Big Beautiful Bill.’

Left-leaning Senate Parliamentarian Elizabeth MacDonough ruled that key GOP provisions in President Trump’s “Big Beautiful Bill” violate the rules.

The Republicans are pushing President Trump’s ‘Big Beautiful Bill’ through budget reconciliation because it will only need a simple majority to pass.

However, the Senate Parliamentarian has to approve of certain provisions in the bill otherwise they cannot pass with a simple majority vote.

Elizabeth MacDonough last weekend struck down several GOP provisions in the bill by applying the ‘Byrd Rule.’

MacDonough rejected:

  • The federal government defunding sanctuary cities
  • Defunding the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (DOGE targeted this agency)
  • The EPA’s effort to roll back Electric Vehicle mandates
  • A proposal to restrict federal courts from issuing nationwide injunctions

President Trump did not go scorched earth on Elizabeth MacDonough on Friday.

“The Parliamentarian has been a little difficult and I would say that I would disagree with the Parliamentarian on some things and other ways she’s been fine, but we’ll have to see. It’s a big issue,” Trump said without going into further detail about his disagreements with the Parliamentarian.

“If that bill doesn’t pass, the country will get a 68% tax increase,” Trump said.

WATCH:

Later Friday, President Trump said the Senate Republicans are working all weekend to finish the ‘Big Beautiful Bill.’

“The Great Republicans in the U.S. Senate are working all weekend to finish our “ONE, BIG, BEAUTIFUL BILL.” We are on the precipice of delivering Massive General Tax Cuts, NO TAX ON TIPS, NO TAX ON OVERTIME, NO TAX ON SOCIAL SECURITY FOR OUR SENIORS, Permanently Securing our Borders, an even Bigger and More Powerful Military (I rebuilt it during my First Term, and it is already the Best, but we will make it BETTER!), unleashing our American Economy, dominating the Energy Market, creating Jobs, and getting money back to American Families. The House of Representatives must be ready to send it to my desk before July 4th — We can get it done. It will be a wonderful Celebration for our Country, which is right now, “The Hottest Country anywhere in the World” — And to think, just last year, we were a laughingstock. Thank you for your attention to this matter!” Trump said on Friday afternoon.

NEW: Over Half a Million Haitians Living in America Now Face Deportation After Trump Admin. Terminates Their ‘Temporary Protected Status’

NEW: Over Half a Million Haitians Living in America Now Face Deportation After Trump Admin. Terminates Their ‘Temporary Protected Status’

More than half a million individuals from the poorest country in the Western Hemisphere will have to go back home in the coming months as Team Trump continues to enforce immigration law properly.

Secretary of Homeland Security Kristi Noem announced on Friday in a press release that she will terminate ‘temporary protected status’ (TPS) for the country of Haiti. The TPS designation for Haiti ends on Aug. 3, 2025, and the termination will go into effect on Tuesday, September 2, 2025.

There are roughly 520,000 Haitians currently living in the US.

“This decision restores integrity in our immigration system and ensures that Temporary Protective Status is actually temporary,” a DHS spokesperson said regarding the move. “The environmental situation in Haiti has improved enough that it is safe for Haitian citizens to return home.

“We encourage these individuals to take advantage of the Department’s resources in returning to Haiti, which can be arranged through the CBP Home app. Haitian nationals may pursue lawful status through other immigration benefit requests, if eligible.”

According to the press release, Noem determined that, based on a U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services review of the conditions in Haiti and in consultation with the Department of State, conditions in Haiti have improved to the point where Haitians residing in America can return home.

Moreover, Noem decided that allowing Haitian nationals to remain in America temporarily runs counter to America’s national interest.

The decision by the DHS comes one month after the Supreme Court ruled that it would allow the Trump administration to revoke legal status for more than 500,000 people from Cuba, Nicaragua, Haiti, and Venezuela to temporarily live and work in America.

The Trump Administration previously appealed to the U.S. Supreme Court following an Obama judge’s ruling, demanding the revocation of temporary legal status for these migrants.

This move will prove welcome news to many communities around the United States, especially Springfield, Ohio. As TGP readers know, Springfield residents last year alleged Haitians in their town were “grabbing up ducks by their necks, decapitating them, and walking off with them to eat.”

Others revealed how the massive influx of immigrants, thanks to then-border czar Kamala Harris, drained Springfield’s resources and turned a once-safe city into a crime-ridden hell.

One resident even claimed she spotted a cat hanging from a branch and being carved up for food by Haitian immigrants. Reports also emerged that American veterans who have put their lives on the line were getting denied benefits while Haitians sponged off the taxpayers for absolutely nothing.
