                  Trump said he’s pausing “Project Freedom.”
                 </strong>
                 In a social media post last night, President Trump announced he was

                 the US operation to escort ships through the Strait of Hormuz “for a short period of time” to allow time for an agreement with Iran. Trump’s post came just hours after Secretary of State Marco Rubio told reporters that the US was committed to Project Freedom. Rubio and Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth also said the fragile ceasefire was still holding, even as Iran continued to attack the United Arab Emirates. Both the US and Iran claimed to control the crucial strait yesterday, as maritime traffic came to a near standstill.

The group’s main gripe is that the federal government’s green initiatives have stifled the region from producing and exporting oil, costing Alberta billions of dollars. The option to split could be put on the ballot as early as October, though it already faces court challenges. Polls show that support for the separatist movement has increased, but is still in the minority.

                  The SEC officially proposed semiannual reporting.

He told the Wall Street Journal, “I want to feel like the machine I’m building actually cares about me.” (Note: It doesn’t though.)
