Joe Biden shares plan to end Israel-Hamas war
The May 26 tragedy led to a global outcry. President Joe Biden on May 31 issued a statement that read, “After intensive diplomacy carried out by my team and my many conversations with leaders of Israel, Qatar, and Egypt and other Middle Eastern countries, Israel has now offered — Israel has offered a comprehensive new proposal.”
He added, “It’s a roadmap to an enduring ceasefire and the release of all hostages. This proposal has been transmitted by Qatar to Hamas,” before explaining the three phases plan.
Donald Trump slammed guilty verdict
Meanwhile, Trump’s appearance at the UFC 302 came after he was convicted of 34 charges in the hush money trial in the Manhattan court on May 30.
The Republican was declared guilty after it was proved that he forged his business records to make a payment of $130,000 to a former porn star to shut her mouth regarding a sex scandal.
But Trump decried the verdict as he reportedly said, “This was a disgrace, this was a rigged trial by a conflicted judge. The real verdict will be November 5th by the people and they know what happened here, and everybody knows what happened here.”
“We didn't do anything wrong. I'm a very innocent man. That's OK. I'm fighting for our country, and I'm fighting for our Constitution. Our whole country is being rigged right now,” he added.
