President Donald Trump And his administration this week continued to progress negotiations with Ukraine and Russia in an attempt to reach a peace agreement to end the conflict between the two countries.
State Secretary Marco Rubio, Special Envoy in the Middle East Steve Witkoff and National Security Advisor Mike Waltz met with Russian officials in Riyadh on Tuesday to discuss ways to end the war, while US special envoy for Ukraine and Russia Kellogg met with Ukrainian officials in Kiev on the Peace Agreement on Wednesday.
The meetings increased the tension between the US -Ai Ukraine, when the Ukrainian Volodimir President Zelenskyy told reporters in Turkey that “no one decides anything behind our backs,” claiming that Ukraine was not invited to a meeting between USA -a Russia. Zelenskyy said Ukraine would not agree to an agreement if Ukraine is not part of the conversation.

In response, both Trump and Zelenskyy exchanged barbas. Although Russia attacked Ukraine in February 2022, Trump insinuated that Ukraine had started the war and called Zelenskyy “dictator.” Meanwhile, Zelenskyy claimed that Trump scattered Russian “misinformation”.
Nevertheless, Trump’s administration defended her decision to meet with Russia, claiming that negotiations needed to be improved.
“How are you going to end the war if you don’t talk to Russia?” Vice President JD Vance said at a conference of conservative political action near the capital of the state on Thursday. “You have to talk to everyone involved in the fight. If you actually want a conflict to bring the end.”
Here’s what happened this week at the White House:
Removal of unconstitutional regulations
Trump on Wednesday signed an executive command that demanded that federal agencies evaluate regulations that could violate the Constitution while the administration seeks to reduce bureaucracy.
Senior administration officials said Fox News Digital The command is the first of its kind and attempt to ensure that the Government is not armed against the American people. They will require agencies to submit a list of the office and budget office (OMB) in the next 60 days of all regulations that could be unconstitutional.

Doge officials in federal agencies will draw up a list of regulations that could break the Constitution and submit a list of OMB. After 60 days, the Oira will go through the list of regulations and make individual decisions that are unconstitutional and will initiate the procedure for the abolition of the regulations in the case of a case.
The Oira monitors the regulations of the executive power, while the newly created reach aims to remove the government waste, fraud and consumption.

Completion of taxpayers’ financing for illegal immigrants
Trump has also signed an executive command that ensures that tax fees do not go towards illegal immigrants in an attempt to protect the interests of American citizens.
The directive requires federal agencies to determine whether some of the programs funded with federal means provide financial benefits to illegal immigrants and immediately take “corrective measures” that these federal funds do not enhance illegal immigration. Also, the command indicates agencies to implement a more severe verification of acceptability to ensure that you do not go illegally to those in the US.

The command did not determine the special benefits and notes that it is forbidden by illegal immigrants to a large extent to qualify for social welfare programs. However, the command states without giving evidence that the administrations “have repeatedly undermined the goals of the law, which resulted in an irregular expense of significant taxpayers’ resources.”
“My administration will support the rule of the law, defend themselves against the loss of hard -earned taxpayers’ resources and protect benefits for US citizens in need, including people with disabilities and veterans,” the order said.
“President Trump is advocating for the protection of federal public benefits for American citizens who are truly needed, including people with disabilities and veterans,” the fact of the White House states on the executive order.
