🗞️ The Weekly Roundup.
On Tuesday, President Trump met with Jordan’s King Abdullah. The meeting followed President Trump’s call for the relocation of Palestinians to Jordan and Egypt and his stated goal to “take over” Gaza. President Trump also spoke with Russia's President Putin to discuss ending the war in Ukraine. On the home front, we received the latest inflation report, which showed that food prices have risen in the last year. And we ended the week with word that Robert F. Kennedy Jr. was confirmed as secretary of Health and Human Services.
