1)Why Did Trump Fire The Director of National Security Agency?: Last week, Pres. Trump fired 4 star general Timothy Haugh who heads the ultra-secret National Security Agency (NSA). The NSA monitors vast networks of data from foreign adversaries and provides intelligence alerts to protect us. But Trump said he had 'lost confidence' in Gen.  Haugh, or that the General wasn't 'sufficiently loyal'. What is going on?.

2)Explaining Trump's Tariffs?: Last Wednesday, , Trump declared "Liberation Day" imposing tariffs of 10% or more on the whole world, and selective country by country 'reciprocal tariffs.’ This was in addition to earlier announced 25% fentanyl tariff on Mexico and Canada, and 10% fentanyl tariff on China. Trump's tariffs on China could reach 105% this week. What does he hope to achieve, and will he succeed?

3)Netanyahu Makes Second Visit to White House in Two Months?: After Trump became US President last January, PM Netanyahu made the first 'official state visit' at the White House --- Feb 3ed. Now the Israeli PM is coming back for a second 'official visit' just two months later. Is this usual?

4)June 14th Military Parade for Trump's Birthday?: Trump seems to admire big military parades like Moscow and Beijing hold each year, and now wants the US military to have a similar show. He is suggesting it be held in DC on June 14th which is his birthday. What do you think?
