The Jeffrey Epstein story just won’t go away. Even though some people might want it to, it’s still in the news. Now, Donald Trump is back in the spotlight.

American politics is always moving. This week, former President Donald Trump is in the news again.

It was from a time when people wore wigs and wrote constitutions by hand. Now, over 200 years later, it’s the main point in a big immigration fight. But the court disagreed with Trump. This decision could change more than just immigration rules. It might decide if presidents can use old laws to fix…

Countries traded with each other. Wars didn’t spread too much. The U.S. was a major power. Europe was rebuilt. Countries like Japan, South Korea, and some in Africa and Asia became wealthier. But things are always in motion. Now, in 2025, that old arrangement is starting to fall apart. It started gradually, but it’s speeding up, and you can sense it. How It Started Let’s rewind a bit.
