Senate begins debate on Trump's 'big, beautiful bill'

A Dutch reporter brought up President Donald Trump's campaign vow that he would end the war between Russia and Ukraine within 24 hours of returning to office, but later claimed that was "sarcasm."

"Of course it was sarcastic," Trump said.

The president added that the situation is "more difficult than people would have any idea," claiming both leaders were difficult. Trump then pivoted to other foreign conflicts including the Indian-Pakistan conflict which he took responsibility for resolving.

President Donald Trump, speaking at a news conference at the NATO summit in the Netherlands, celebrated allies boosting defense spending -- something he's long pushed for.

"This week, the NATO allies committed to dramatically increase the defense spending to that 5% of GDP, something that no one really thought possible," Trump said.

He said the agreement will be known as "The Hague Defense Commitment" and once reached will add more than $1 trillion a year toward common defense.

"It's a monumental win for the United States because we were carrying much more than our fair share," Trump said. "But this is a big win for Europe and for actually western civilization."

For Rep. Al Green, the sixth time will not be the charm.

An overwhelming bipartisan majority rejected the Texas Democrat’s long-shot effort to impeach President Donald Trump -- this time over the U.S. strikes on Iran. The vote was 344-79.

Almost half the Democratic House caucus ( 79 Democrats) voted with all Republicans to kill the motion.

President Donald Trump, flying to the Netherlands for a NATO summit, refused to commit to Article 5 -- the agreement to collective defense among NATO countries -- claiming there are multiple definitions of the agreement.

"Are you committed to Article 5 of NATO," Trump was asked about the core tenet of the alliance.

"Depends on your definition. There's numerous definitions of Article 5. You know that, right?" Trump claimed.

"But I'm committed to being their friends," he added. "You know, I've become friends with many of those leaders, and I'm committed to helping them."

He was later asked to clarify those comments, given the eyebrows it's sure to raise among other nations.

"Are you still committed to mutual defense?" he was asked.

"I'm committed to saving lives. I'm committed to life and safety, and I'm going to give you an exact definition when I get there. I just don't want to do it on the back of an airplane."
